"U-ughh…" Cyrus groaned while taking a few steps back. While Lucian's blow wasn't as strong as the android he had taken blows from before, his strike was far too precise, landing on a spot that nearly sent a jolt to his brain.
Luckily, his partial wolf transformation stopped the pain before he could blackout. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to learn anything from the spar if it ended too quickly.
"Tsk tsk; that's a fatal opening you have there," Lucian chuckled while springing back to his feet. Though Cyrus moved faster than him, Lucian didn't suffer a loss because he went beyond using reactive instincts. Instead, he moved proactively after reading Cyrus's strike.
After all, Hypervigilance was strong enough to the point that his weakened perception didn't seem weakened at all.
Again, Cyrus caressed his jaw before spitting out a little trace of blood, "Thanks for letting me know. But you hit like a sissy, Lucian."
