Lucius stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with malice. "My name is Lucius Blake," he announced with a theatrical flourish.
Constantine wiped the blood from his mouth, glaring back. "I don't care who you are. I already kicked your ass once," he replied with a smirk.
Lucius retorted with a dark chuckle. "I've grown much stronger since then."
"So have I," Constantine replied, his voice cold.
The two combatants charged at each other, their movements a blur. Lucius lashed out with shadowy tendrils, each one slicing through the air with deadly precision. Constantine dodged and weaved, his teleportation and superspeed allowing him to evade the attacks.
Lucius moved through the shadows, reappearing behind Constantine with a wicked grin. "You're too slow," he taunted, striking with a shadow blade.
