16 Feeding "Akai"

It took less than ten of seconds for the trolls to recover from the shock, two approached the crouching Hanzo with haste.

The respond, Hanzo, still crouching, extend his right leg, holding the red sheath with his right hand while his left hand gripped the handle of "Akai" tightly.

The two attackers had a smile on their face, although they steal from time to time they don't lack armours and weapons, the two of them were well equipped against a slashing sword.

One swung his mace downward but it did not hit anything but air then he felt a pain on his right, blood spurt from his armour, losing strength, then he fell on his knees.

The other one noticed the state of his ally, so he halted his attempt, a loud, painful sound was heard before the troll in front of him fall, it must have been the enemy's sword cutting through the armour like its butter.

It wasn't just him who was shocked, the others behind were just standing, holding their weapons still, they can defeat the man in front of him even if he's fast but with that miracle weapon on his hand, it will be much dangerous.

"Why did you stop?", Hanzo changed his posture and stood straight, he did a forward step to his left and slashed to the troll's right, and it happened fast, and one of the trolls who was about to attack him earlier is only a meter away.

The troll took two steps backwards, but Hanzo just get closer by facing the same number of steps forward, it went on and on until the troll find himself resting on a "wall".

His allies caught him, now Hanzo is 2 meters away from the flock.

"Don't get cocky", a man holding a giant axe went forward, he looked strange walking, it's clear that the man has a problem carrying the heavy axe.

He swung it downward, and it landed on the ground leaving a large crack, as expected, Hanzo dodged the axe, another troll went forward, holding a thin metal shield on his right hand and a sword on his left.

He charged to Hanzo with confidence, a smile can be seen on his face, about to push Hanzo with his shield but then Hanzo just clashed the shield, holding the sword with one hand. The troll tried pushing his shield with full strength, his feet leaving footprints on the ground.

Knowing that Hanzo is struggling, a troll with two-handed swords went forward, of course, Hanzo has seen the man, so he took a step backwards that caused the pushing troll stumbling.

He parried the two-handed sword with both hands then the axed troll from earlier took steps forwarded and was about to slashed downward again, knowing he's in a tight spot, Hanzo kicked the troll equipped with a sword that separated him about a meter from Hanzo then Hanzo performed a leftward slash.

The troll was only wearing a leather vest on his body, not enough defence for a weapon of such calibre like "Akai", smoking innards came out from his stomach and fall to the ground.

The axed troll saw the horrible death of his ally then looked at Hanzo's face, then he realised the regretful mistake he has done. Knowing it's dangerous in the open, tried running towards the crowd but then his axe was too heavy, he can't just drop it there, it's just the same as being naked in a battlefield.

Hanzo saw the troll awkwardly trying to escape and chuckled, unlike his ally, the shielded troll continued his pursuit," Will you do the same if I cut down this thing that protects you?", the troll then made a piercing attack, Hanzo parried it with ease, holding "Akai" with two hands he made a downward slash.

A scream was followed, the shielded troll was sitting on the ground, kicking the dirt with his two feet, his shield was no more, it brought with it his right hand.

The trolls were like awoken from the real danger they're in. Five trolls tried surrounding Hanzo, the surprising thing was that he could try escaping the trap, but the man just stood still looking at them with a grin on his face.
