Pressure

Even Stephen looked flabbergasted. That was his finishing move. Shouldn't the fight be over? When he looked down to kick Liam's corpse, only then he noticed that the corpse was no longer there.

"So your daggers are legendary weapons?" A voice sounded behind him while at the same time, a dozen sword slashes landed on his back.

The thief immediately moved back, dodging most of the attacks. "You are a cockroach, aren't you? You just won't die." After retreating, he bounced back towards Liam once again to attack him.

As a thief class player, he was fully able to demonstrate his speed and agility. He wove in and out of the darkness and brandished his two daggers flawlessly.

However…

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Every single one of his attacks was still blocked. Liam's raw speed matched his and was even slightly faster than his. How was this possible?
