After Elik had been hit, a window appeared in front of him, followed by a second one, a rather familiar pair of windows actually. 

[hider=Skill Get!]
A Skill has been created through a Special Action. By enduring physical pain, the ability to better do so, Physical Endurance, has been created. [/hider]

[hider=Physical Endurance]
Physical Endurance (Lv 1: 0/100 XP) (Passive): +1 Constitution, +5% HP, +1 HP Regen. Your ability to take physical damage and recover from it more quickly. To Level: Take Physical Damage, Take Massive Physical Damage, Endure a Mortal Blow, Endure a Critical Strike. [/hider]

This Skill, upon recieving it, actually made Elik feel a bit tougher, like he could take more pain now than he could before, which was the only way to level it up actually.

Mushi suddenly aimed his wand towards the enemy, shouting out a warning to the other players to cover their eyes. Unfortunately that was a bit of a mistake. His warning to the players was also a warning to the enemies, the two enemies actually being able to understand what was going on as they shielded their eyes as well right before Mushi used his flash spell, a bright flash of light emitting from his wand in the direction that he pointed it, which would have been at the two enemies who seemed to bare some basic form of intelligence judging from how they understood what Mushi was doing. 

Unfortunately them covering their eyes in the nick of time, well the archer did anyway, shielded the archer from being blinded. The swordsman wasn't completely blinded, but he was able to somewhat shield his face just in time to flinch some. This flinch, unfortunately, gave Elik the perfect moment to strike at the sword bearing creature. 

Despite the attack being on more of an impulse, it managed to sink into the creature, it crying out loudly as a red gash was left across its torso. It wasn't as deep as the one he made on the bomb throwing enemy, as its armor saved it a bit as well as the attack's spontaneous nature making it not as coordinated, but it still took a pretty nasty blow regardless and looked quite worse for wear because of it. 

This battle, despite Mushi's mistake, was starting to draw to a close.
