Though perplexed by the intentions of the old man in front of her, the female knight refused to easily give in.
She still wanted to make an effort, to change her situation, or perhaps restore some of her dignity.
However, in such an obvious combat situation, her opponent did nothing to prepare.
Perhaps it was his overconfidence, which stemmed from his belief in his immense power that could easily crush her.
Could it be that he felt there was no need for him to fight in this battle?
Because the strong always possess a certain pride, as long as they can defeat their enemies, the end is more important than the process.
Because of this, the female knight decided not to lose her temper at such a crucial moment, thus becoming flustered and chaotic.
The room fell into absolute silence, as if time had frozen, with no anticipation of further changes or surprises.
So, the female knight regulated her breathing and regained her composure which had been shattered by her broken sword.
