In the heat exchange between Margaret and Amato, the two of them had crossed weapons hundreds of times, and still, there wasn't anyone among them who was able to get the upper hand.
They had even sent out unleashed all sorts of techniques and still, the result was the same. Margaret had even tried using the execution saber technique, but this time around she wasn't able to cause any serious injury to him, the closest thing she did was stab his shoulder with her saber.
After that, she wasn't able to touch any part of his body. Amato knew better than to dodge the attack, and he did, which prevented him from being in a disastrous situation.
The longer the battle kept on going, the more it brought out the fact that the two of them were equally matched. While this was meant to be a source of relief to both of them, it certainly wasn't. The person who was most angry by this was Amato.
