Annihilation Slash

Alfred instinctively sensed that Solam could restrain him—perhaps even kill him! The realization shocked Alfred to the core. He had thought that, after awakening this time, he would fear no one but the gods. Yet blow after blow had struck him. First, Tyr's manifestation had nearly scared him into wetting himself, then a legendary mage had given him a thorough beating. He had truly learned what the real world was.

Yet none of that compared to the shock Solam had given him! This guy could kill him!!!!

Of course, this was all Alfred's own speculation and intuition; there was no conclusive evidence.
