Asher clashed with her. He ground his teeth, took a step back and saw another sword coming down on his head. Asher inhaled and swung his sword upward. The swords clashed but he wasn't free yet.
His eyes went down, following the second sword that approached his abdomen.
Asher thought hard on what to do. Left with no other choice, he chose to go back but Ariel followed up with another powerful horizontal slash.
Left with a small space, Asher bent inward, narrowly evading the sword. All of a sudden, he felt a throb in his heart and that disorganized his internal flow.
It seemed like the world turned upside down and by the time he opened his eyes, Ariel's sword was before his neck.
