The Duel (2).
As the heavy claymore swung down, aiming for the neck of the K. Champion, the blade shattered upon contact, its fragments scattering into the air, without even an scratch appearing on the Champion's skin. Rex's eyes widened. "You've got to be kidding me..."
With a grin, the K. Champion raised his arm and unleashed a powerful punch that sent Rex hurtling backward. Rex slammed into the ground, rolling across the gritty sand, dust kicking up in clouds around him.
"Kukuku... what is this? Have you grown weaker?" The Champion sneered, his voice dripping with mockery. "You're a disgrace as my prey."
Rex pushed himself up, struggling to find his footing as he gasped for breath. But the K. Champion was already on him, slamming a brutal kick into his stomach, sending him sprawling down the slope of a sand dune. He tumbled and slid, finally skidding to a stop at the bottom.
