Neither the Orc King or the Ice Princess made a move even though both of them had drawn their weapons.
With the way that they were looking at each other, it was clear that they were sizing each other up to see how to best cut down the other side.
It was a battle of both patience and intelligence.
But in the end, it was the Orc King that moved first.
The Orc King had less patience than the Ice Princess, so it charged forward while swinging its sword out. This swing was much too early to be considered an attack on the Ice Princess, but it was a different story because this was a magic weapon.
When the Orc King swung this sword out, there were vines that suddenly appeared in the air around the Orc King.
These vines were aimed right at the Ice Princess.
They came in different directions, as if they were targeting different parts of the Ice Princess.
