Erik and Mia stood facing each other, their swords at the ready. The atmosphere was tense, and the sound of their breathing was the only thing they could hear, despite the chaos in their surroundings.
Erik knew that he was almost done, as the thug in front of him was too strong. Mia was quick and agile, and he could not match her strength.
Until now, he resisted, thanks to Nathaniel's power, which gave him enough speed and power to counter her blows, but his ager mana was almost empty and he didn't know how long he could go on like this.
At the sa ti, Mia was left stunned by Erik's skills. It wasn't an everyday occurrence that a 16-year-old kid could fight for so long against soone her age.
He was indeed on the losing side and had many wounds on his body, but the feat remained.
However, it was apparent to her expert eye that the kid would reach his limit soon.
She had been trained to be ruthless and efficient, and she did not doubt that she would take him down sooner or later.
Without warning, Mia lunged forward, her sword flashing in the room's light. Erik parried her attack with difficulty and backed down slightly to gain so distance. Mia was quick, and he had to be ready for anything.
Erik backed and started circling the woman, who did the sa as currently; Erik's defense was tight; their eyes locked in a fierce stare. The awakener noticed Mia's eyes were cold and calculating, and he knew she was trying to anticipate his moves.
He decided to take the initiative and swung his Flyssa towards Mia. She parried the attack with ease and retaliated with a swift thrust.
Erik managed to dodge the attack, but he felt the wind blowing on his skin due to the sheer strength the woman unleashed.
The two fighters continued to trade blows, each trying to gain the upper hand. Erik was a skilled fighter, but Mia was faster, stronger, and more agile. She managed to land a few more hits on Erik, but he could deflect most of them with his sword.
Erik began to feint sotis, trying to throw Mia off balance. It worked for a while, and he managed to land a few hits on her, too, much to the woman's surprise, but they were shallow at best, and Mia was too skilled to be fooled for long.
However, Erik's fatigue began to set in as the fight continued. He had been fighting for what felt like an eternity and knew he couldn't keep it up much longer.
