The alley's confines, though initially restricting, became an ally to Cyrus as he expertly navigated the tight space. The thugs, hampered by the limitations of their environment, found themselves outmaneuvered by Cyrus's agile responses. His hands, guided by an intuitive understanding of martial dynamics, intercepted each attempted strike with effortless precision.
As the confrontation unfolded, Cyrus utilized a combination of grappling and joint-lock techniques to subdue his adversaries without inflicting severe harm. His movements, though swift and decisive, exuded a controlled finesse that sought to neutralize rather than incapacitate. The sangria spear, still aglow with its latent energy, remained a silent deterrent in Cyrus's grip.
