If Silver Shinobi was in.... Shovel Knight?

"Hm? Oho, what is this? A shovel, as a weapon? You must be a skilled warrior indeed to wield such a tool in combat! Strength and versatility.... I like it!"

"I am on my way to the Tower of Fate. I have no quarrel with you, glistening traveler."

"Nor I with you. However, I travel the world to seek knowledge, wisdom, and strength. For that purpose, I challenge you... to a duel! HAVE AT YOU!"

Just a ten minute doodle spawned by listening to the Shovel Knight soundtrack. Tried to recreate the art style.
