"There is no need to give up. I'm not here to beat you," Victor said, his voice calm but full of authority. He could see the fire of a young hunter in Trawerr's eyes, determined to prove his worth.
Trawerr responded with a grunt and lunged again. This time he mixed his attack with feints and changes of direction, trying to catch Victor off guard. But Victor, with his vast experience, read each move like an open page. He blocked a side blow, deflected a lunge, and in one fluid motion spun around to avoid a powerful blow that could have knocked out a less prepared opponent.
"You're getting better," Victor commented, his voice as calm as ever. "But you still have a lot to learn."
Trawerr growled, his frustration obvious. He stepped back, his eyes glowing with renewed determination. The young man adjusted his stance again, this time to a lower, more defensive posture. He was beginning to understand that brute force would not be enough to defeat Victor.
