Their fight had hit a climax as their blades clashed with a force that could send mountains falling.
They sparkled with both fire and lightning with each exchange. It was amazing that Lance had lasted five whole minutes. He now saw why the Professor preferred him for this assessment.
His swordsmanship was not even close to hers. And in terms of strength, she was stronger. However, she was weak in close combat, her strikes felt forced, and they were slow compared to what he saw with Elizabeth. It wasn't news to him that Eris was trained by the sword god, Beatrix. But he saw the faults caused by her having little interest in swordsmanship. If she were passionate, then this fight would have ended already.
They closed on each other, their swords in between them. Then pushed away when they canceled each other out.
