Bang!
Swoosh!
Sigurd had waited enough, so he initiated the opening move once again. He disappeared from his spot and reappeared right before Arthur and swung his great sword down.
Arthur, who was already expecting this, quickly raised his shield to block the descending sword. As he did that, a layer of magic circle appeared over the shield, acting as a magic barrier. Runes with ice-elemental mana filled its surface, further reinforcing its defensive capabilities.
Boom!
The ground sank once again as the sword and the barrier clashed. The impact even caused countless rock fragments to fly in the air before turning into dust.
The two sides stayed like this for a couple of moments as they maintained their respective positions.
Bang!
