Chapter 55: El Cid, the Death Knight [12] - Warrior such as yourself
"Well said, Rodrigo, well said," Gonzales appreciated Rodrigo's thoughts.
Impressed, Gonzales decided to let Rodrigo take a chance and attack. He purposely took a few steps back. Understanding Gonzales' motive and respecting him, Rodrigo turned his sword to his sides a few times, as if warming his arms up.
Moments after that, he leapt forward, taking a few steps to decrease the distance between them. Not hesitating, Rodrigo once again used a gigantic portion of his strength and swung the sword as if his life depended on it!
Gonzales, not really surprised by Rodrigo's attempt, jumped to the side and evaded the attack. He was on the ground for a fleeting moment but then backflipped and stood on his feet, assuming the battle stance within a second!
"This much is not going to kill me, Rodrigo! You need to be faster!"
