Using Axe in a battle?

Chapter 72

A rapier had a long range while the axe had a short reach…

A rapier was light while an axe was heavy…

It was in complete contrast, his choice of weapons was very weird but at the same time, his style of handling and the way he was holding the two weapons made a beautiful scene at the moment for any onlooker there.

The combination of grace and barbarism—each complimenting the other.

Neither side trying to diminish the other's presence but instead glorifying their user.

But why would he chose an axe right now…?

It was simple.

An axe while it typically had shorter reach as compared to a sword or rapier, he could use this to his advantage whenever his rapier clashed with Shane's blade.

While an axe was heavy and cumbersome, it serves as a great defense, if he used it properly, he could use the broad head of the axe to deflect or block Shane's strikes.
