"This is excellent now lets get this party started!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Closing the doors behind him Tenebris ran into the wild sea of the bats, swords in both hands swaying between the charging bats cutting each that passed by him. Bat lord was still hanging at the back of the room, its eyes were open and it was calmly watching Tenebris slaughter its kin.
Screech!
It opened its mouth and issued a long screech, unfolding its wings, it was about 1 meter long with a wingspan of 2 meters, after the screech bats were even more chaotic, attacking Tenebris wildly from all sides, but Tenebris was completely unfazed by the bat movements, continuing dancing through the storm with his swords towards the bat lord. After reaching couple of steps away from the bat lord, bat lord flew down and charged towards Tenebris, it was so fast Tenebris barely saw it, he didn't have time to react and bat lord slammed into him pushing him down on the ground, pining him down and embedding its long teeths into his left shoulder, crushing it instantly.
"Annoying." Murmured Tenebris as he kicked of the bat lord of himself and jumping up, his left arm was hanging beside his body limply but he still had firm grip on his sword, he took out a potion with his right hand and drank it swiftly while dodging the onslaught of the bats. Not wanting him to recuperate bat lord charged again towards Tenebris but he successfully dodged it this time, slashing his right handed sword at the bat lords back leaving a deep wound on its back.
Sensing the pain bat lord screeched once more and turned around, its eyes were bloodshot and it was glaring hatefully at Tenebris. It charged once again but this time it was slower, it seemed it didn't want to underestimate its prey once more. Tenebris just sidestepped and slashed at it once more, leaving a big red X on its back. It turned around looking at Tenebris that was still calmly thinning out the bats, more than half of the bats were already missing and Tenebris kept dancing through them, bats were falling like the rain. Bat lord unfolded its wings again and low screeching sound could be heard coming out of it, above its head dark glowing balls started to form and grow. Tenebris stopped for a second and watched those dark balls, there were 4 of them and they kept growing until they were the size of a fist.

"A spell huh? Come at me!" Yelled Tenebris as he cut through the bats towards the bat lord.
Tenebris kept dancing through the bat flood, speeding up his strikes even more, screeches of the dying bats filled the room.
Swoosh!
Something dark rushed past Tenebris, he barely dodged it but it still grazed his neck, he turned around only to see that there were now 3 dark balls above bat lord head. As he came closer to it another flash happened and something that looked like a spear materialized from that ball and rushed towards Tenebris, sidestepping Tenebris dodged it without any problems. He ran up to bat lord and started slashing wildly at it ignoring rest of the bats that were attacking him.
"I will not fall before you do!" Yelled Tenebris while trying to shake of bats that were stuck on his body.
After couple of more minutes of of bats gnawing and sword swishes both the bat lord and Tenebris were exhausted, there were no more bats and there was only two of them standing across each other, both heavily panting.
"This is the end, prepare to die! Seven paths! Carnage!" Yelled Tenebris as he made his final charge at the bat lord, he was clearly moving even faster than before, slashing with his sword spinning wildly around the bat lord leaving multiple gushing wounds on it. With his last swing he aimed for the bat lords neck but before he could've cut it, last black ball produced another spear that pierced through Tenebrises chest, leaving a small bloody wound.
"I will not die before you do!" Tenebris gathered every bit of strength he could and made his last attempt for bat lords life, slicing his sword at its head, bit by bit going deeper until he finally managed to cut it of completely.

"Haha, still undefeated, time to sleep a bit..." He mumbled as he fell to the ground, the ground was littered with bat corpses so they acted as a pillow for him, his vision fading, he passed out.
"Hurry up, put him down here, don't dawdle around, hurry he might bleed to death, get me some gauze and some alcohol, there are some in my bag!" Commanded Tomm as they dragged almost dead Tenebris into their room.
"Stupid kid, what have you done to yourself." Tomm whispered as he watched badly mutilated body of Tenebris, there were bite marks and scratches all over him, his body was died red with his own blood, and he just lied there, unmoving, seemingly dead, if it was not for a very weak motion of breathing they would've believed that he was really dead.
"Dad, please save him, please, ill do anything just save him, i beg you dad." Said weeping little black haired girl.
"I'm an engineer not a doctor! Its a miracle on its own that he is still alive, with this much blood loss he should be dead, but he isn't, maybe it is because of this game system, or maybe its something else, i don't know, but whatever it is, he might survive because of it, so calm down and do as i say." Ordered Tomm as he watched his daughter weep over Tenebrises body.
