How to Defeat the School Children

In Chapter 2 you will encounter The School Children which are living puppets that hesitate for a second before they attack you. It is crucial that you pay attention for this momentary pause in movement because if one lunges at you the game is over as they only need one hit to take you down. The School Children however can themselves be taken down by a single hit from any weapon but in order to do so you must time your attack perfectly. The way to do this is to hold your ground when one of them runs at you and wait for them to pause before their attack. Immediately this happens you need to take a step forward and swing your weapon, so you perform a clean hit. It is important that you step forward because if you remain still your weapon will likely be out of range.
