Her eyes widened when she saw what he was about to do, but before he could stab her, an arrow shot towards him and hit his hand where he held the sword. He staggered.
She turned to the girl who was running towards her, or rather towards the priest. She gave her a nod and faced the king. "Now, it's your time to die."
Behind her, the priest saw the girl running towards him and his eyes widened. There were more girls that could fight?
She took out her sword, and he used his left hand to clash his sword against hers. Even though she was a girl, she wouldn't be able to defeat him.
They fought. She was strong, no doubt, but she was panting hard, and he knew she was still not as strong as Safiya. He had seen Safiya fight, and that girl had surprised him.
He raised his sword towards her, but she was quick to dodge it. He pushed her back, and she staggered.
