Adrienne rolled on the ground as Eldric's attack blasted him away. Due to the strong impact, he couldn't remain in place, no matter how hard he tried.
He coughed several times as he stood back up, the taste of copper clinging to his mouth.
On the other hand, Eldric's mark was dwindling yet the less time he has, the stronger he becomes - because he knows he has a duty to fulfill.
They say the strongest warriors are those who trained well, but it wasn't always the case. Because sometimes the strong ones are those who are prepared to lose it all, just to win or make it even.
Adrienne clenched his jaw while thinking, that even with the amount of mana he draw from the sword, he couldn't match Eldric.
Eldric charged in, this time he was faster than before.
He slashed his sword left and right, not leaving enough time for Adrienne to keep up.
"Dammit!" Adrienne cursed.
