Ezra faced Oliver in a combat stance, while Oliver stood relaxed like he didn't have a care in the world.

"I'll try to push you beyond your normal limit. Try not to use Mana, just your fists and vitality, and fight like you mean it, or else you may die," Oliver warned.

Ezra nodded and charged at Oliver, throwing a punch at Oliver's face. Oliver stepped back, parried Ezra's hand, and then countered with a punch.

Ezra blocked the punch as well, but he wasn't strong enough. Ezra's hand was pushed back with a bang, and the punch continued to hit Ezra, sending him flying.

Ezra flipped and landed on one knee. The arm that he used to block the attack had become red and was throbbing.

Ezra could not believe the amount of pain he was feeling from just blocking the punch. If he hadn't blocked that punch, he would have taken the full force to his chest.
