After Axel's little display, the crowd suddenly got less rowdy and became engrossed in the fight before them. He was going at Lucius with everything he had!
The clashes of their weapons could be heard as Axel started to erratically strike at him anyway he could. But it was like Lucius had an answer for anything - his clock eye was truly the bane of the way freelancers fought. If Axel went left, Lucius went left. If Axel came from above, he would automatically just slide out the way.
It was like both of his eyes were clock faces and the slower the faster the hands of time moved, the more precise his predictions were. As Axel dove in for yet another exchange, Lucius could already see everything as if there were already afterimages of his next move.
