Jack was surprised at the sudden declaration. The bounty hunter said that he was here to hunt them specifically. This did not bode well for their chances of escape.
With the threat of their lives at stake, Hack did not hesitate to slash his sword at the bounty hunter's neck. It was only a few centimeters away from the man, so Jack was confident that it would hit.
With all his strength, Jack put all his power onto the strike. The blade hit the hunter's skins and was able to cut into a small bit of flesh until it stopped.
Jack was surprised and tried to gather more strength, but he could not advance his sword any further. He looked at the hunter and saw that the axe was in the way of his sword.
The hunter had a carefree smile as he flung Jack's sword away from his neck. Jack was powerless to stop the man's force, so his sword was forced outwards.
