I dash forward after responding to the woman, preparing to swing my sword towards the man in front of me.
Clash!!!!
"I recognize you now. The boy who sat there as I fought against the light bearer. Maybe this will be the way to bring her here after all," He says with a serious look in his eyes.
I push the sword against his scythe before suddenly slipping forward as he disappears.
As I start to fall to the ground I roll forward and manage to keep myself from being stuck on the floor.
But the moment I turn around I can feel the blade cutting across my chest, pain radiating from it almost immediately. It isn't enough to keep me from fighting so I push through and swing my sword across him.
He didn't expect me to tank the hit in the slightest since I can see my sword cut across his chest as well.
