Unaware of the changes outside, Nero and Crooked were already engaged in another fierce bout, each fighting to speedily determine the outcome.
As Nero employed his Four Point Unity Steps, he moved at a hardly trackable speed to the average eye. Still, unlike others, Crooked, being a few notches slower than Nero in his current state remained at ease, the energies from the surrounding black dome augmenting both his senses and his stats to ensure an increase in his overall combat skills.
Suddenly, after a whooshing sound, Nero appeared at Crooked's left flank, sweeping his scythe towards him in a circular swing.
Crooked's eyes narrowed as they glanced at the site, observing as it turned into a ray of silvery lights that swept towards him at an even faster speed.
