This time, he opted for a diagonal slash that, of course, was deflected. Knowing that it would happen, Aito tried to accompany the blow, then make a comeback, but the stick was somehow faster than him.
Without his helmet, he felt the full power of the blow that sent him flying again. As he rose up… again…, he touched his cheek, only to find a tiny stingy area where Gwen's weapon had hit him.
'Hum, so she's just using the tip to hit me. Focusing her power on a single point to enhance its efficiency.' Aito thought, 'Something most people do when wielding a weapon but…, the area is smaller. Gotta feel it more.'
After five more flights and more bruises.
