Tatehan felt genuinely alarmed, his confidence wavering. Sure, he had been dominating the fight earlier, landing clean hits and drawing blood, but this transformation seemed to be a massive problem developing right at this critical moment.
He had actually thought he was gaining real momentum, that he was going to defeat Mub and walk away victorious...
But that wasn't Mub's full form at all. Mub had been fighting without his abilities this entire time. He had been fighting Tatehan like a completely normal human would do— no supernatural ability, no transformation, nothing special. He had been fighting like an ordinary human warrior would, relying solely on skill and strength.
'This isn't looking good at all,' Tatehan thought, dread settling in him.
If Mub was about to be at his absolute fullest power, how was he possibly going to defeat that? How was he going to successfully face off against a literal man-beast hybrid with enhanced everything?
