"His pride you say?" Acrypha asked as she looked at Talon curiously. "And what pride would he get from being utterly crushed by you?"
If there was one person familiar with the word 'pride', it's definitely Acrypha. She was a prideful being and had been dealing with prideful people basically her entire life. So, she was surprised she didn't notice the fact that Chin-Hwa was fighting for his pride rather than anything else.
However, hearing her, Talon shook his head. "Keyword 'Fighting'. He was never going to win and he probably knew that."
Talon's eyes wandered to Chin-Hwa again as he watched him struggle greatly to keep up with the Aetheris Blade. The entire time, Talon was commanding the blade to aggressively attack the cold prince from all angles and not leave him a single moment to even think about retaliating.
