Alphonso's tears

Kretos happily lunged at Alphonso who summoned a black staff made out of unknown materials. Kretos concentrated his mana into his hand creating a long sword made out of pure mana. When Kretos's mana sword made contact with Alphonso's staff, Alphonso was about to redirect the flow of attack towards the side and counter. 

Kretos could feel what Alphonso was about to do with the slight shift in the momentum of his attack. So before Alphonso could finish what he was doing, Kretos sent out a kick towards Alphonso's head. Kretos's attack was swift and precise that if it was any other opponent their heads would've already flown away.
