Chapter 52 - Reckoning- War for Academies arc

RoanI stared down my former student as I procured 3 swords. The princess was no longer here. Because of that, I had no fear of collateral damage. Still, this fight would be an unnecessary waste of time that should be spent searching for the princess. Making my threat clear, I said, "This is your last chance to turn back, Vakash. You've grown stronger, there is no doubt of that. Still, if you stand between me and saving the princess, I will kill you. Even if you were once my student." Of course, he was not one to back down. That was wishful thinking. Instead, his brow furrowed as he let loose a low, guttural snarl. Encasing himself in wind energy, he made his response clear, lunging across the battlefield. It took the combined might of all 3 of my swords to block this initial strike. Still, I was already taking note of the many openings that Vakash's anger created. "It seems as though the teachings of a soldier fell on death ears," I said as I easily blocked his next 3 strikes.
