Kairos narrowed his eyes as he watched the mana figure in front of him move by slowly inching closer towards him. He didn't really notice it before, but the sense of finesse had disappeared.
For whatever reason, it seemed like the figure was extremely proficient at the techniques themselves, but was unable to chain them together properly.
Kairos imagined that if in their several clashes, the figure followed up with a strike like it did before, he would be in far more trouble.
However, that didn't seem to be the case. Instead, the figure would awkwardly pause after each time.
While he was thinking, the figure suddenly shifted its stance, raising its sword up and shifting the weight of its foot.
Kairos narrowed his eyes, before abruptly bringing his spear up, but not in the trajectory that the figure was swinging.
That was when the figure's swing suddenly shifted, twisting strangely.
However, it ended up hitting his spear.
