Eliot frowned, 'Isn't he fighting to his full ability? Admittedly, I haven't seen him being as dominant as he has been for a while... But it makes sense, with my speed, how could he be?' He thought, so he smiled.
"Well, let me see what ability you're talking about." He replied and lunged at Matt again at high speed as he swung his sword in a horizontal motion once more.
Still, this time, Matt waited until the last moment to move. In that instant, he centralized his vampiric power in his legs to increase the force of his leap and jumped at an absurd speed toward Eliot.
That would be counterproductive if he were anyone else. Using all the power in your legs just to propel yourself when you need to defend, or attack is a pretty stupid tactic that no one would do.
But Matt did it, because he's not just anyone.
