*clang, clang, clang, clang!*
Rean and the woman clashed several times. No doubt, she was the toughest opponent so far. Her Fourth Stage of Sword Intent was as almost concentrated as Rean's, showing her utter dedication to the sword. Let's not forget that Rean is, in fact, hundreds of times older than her.

The swords clashed against each other another time, forcing both Rean and the woman back. Rean looked at his sword, which had several chips and already began to crack. "Even though this is just a normal iron sword, I'm impressed you managed to bring it to this state. Say, what's your name?"
The woman took a deep breath and straightened her body. "Tomoe Gozen."
"Tomoe Gozen?" Rean narrowed his eyes. He was pretty sure he had read about someone with this name somewhere a long time ago. "Oh! The Japanese female samurai!"
Tomoe showed a confused expression. "Japanese? Samurai? What are you talking about?"
