"Wait!"
The swing of the sword abruptly stopped in front of me, losing its power as White backed down a little bit. He seemed confused but he tried not to show it too much. "What is it?" He asked in slight annoyance as he glared at me, I could tell that he was itching to fight me head-on. After cutting him off like that by shouting 'wait', I did expect him to take it negatively but I never imagined he would take it with contempt.
"You must be thinking that you can get your way either way, right? Even if you lose, you could just overpower me and make me spill everything I know about the mysterious power you were talking about, right? Of course, it's natural for you to think that since I'm relatively weaker than you. That's why I'm going to propose something that would ensure that both sides will get what their want according to the rules set in stone."
