The Ogre's club met the Minotaur's blades making wooden shards fly in all directions, one even cutting Aegis' upper lip and making a tiny red line of blood appear, painting his mouth red. The strength of the attack made Labyrinthine's hooves inter the soft earth underneath them and made his arms tremble and his shoulders hurt. The Ogre's strength surpassed his and that of everything he had met, except maybe a Giant Knight he had met months before.
A moment of great tension passed until Aegis charged in trying to reach the Ogre's hand. The shaft of the club was long as he only managed to severed the head of the monster's thumb before the beast kicked him with a roar. The Minotaur went flying against a tree and then fell to the ground with great noise due to his armor. Thankfully it was well built and had taken most of the hit, but still he was slightly hurted on his back and neck.
In the meanwhile the Ogre screamed in anger at the sight of the wound Aegis had made on it. With a huge roar, and while Aegis was still trying to stand, he charged in again with its club raised high in the air.
