Leon's POV
I kept my focus on the woman even as I sensed eyes on me. I continued to defend against her attacks, parrying when possible. It became evident that she possessed exceptional skill, making it increasingly challenging for me to defend myself. Despite this, she showed no signs of relenting; if anything, her speed seemed to intensify.
I marveled at the velocity of her sword. It surpassed even that of individuals renowned for their swiftness, reaching a level where the blade's tip was barely discernible until the last moment, demanding complete concentration—truly overwhelming speed. Yet, amidst the intensity, I couldn't help but feel exhilarated. It was a rare encounter with such masterful swordsmanship, a display of fluidity and precision unlike any I had witnessed before.
After a prolonged exchange, the woman ceased her assault. She assessed me with a cold gaze, her scrutiny palpable.
