Evading Macum's attack, Geraldine rolled on the ground and kicked his shin bone, making him staggered back in pain.
Standing up, she raised her sword and thwack him with full force, he was able to defend it but it caused a small crack on the sword in his hand.
"What the--" Macum's eyes widen seeing the crack on his beloved sword that was made with the finest metals and have fought many enemies with it, only to be broken by a young lady in front of him.
At first, Macum didn't seriously take Geraldine's request about a friendly duel as he never saw a woman holding a sword, much less use it to fight.
But now, seeing that Geraldine knows how to use the sword pretty well, he doesn't have a choice but to fight her without holding back as he doesn't want his colleagues and students to see that he can't defeat a young lady.
