Flow Of Battle

The two clashed dozens of times in a split second.

Neo held back, making sure his physical ability was at Kane's level.

Kane slashed towards his neck.

Neo raised the sword to block when Kane suddenly twisted the trajectory of his attack.

His blade shot upward at a sharp angle before taking another sharp turn, descending towards Neo's head.

The attacks were abrupt, yet they flowed like water.

There was a harmony in Kane's attack that Neo had never seen before.

Neo didn't dodge.

Kane's attack was a bluff.

The tip of the sword missed his nose by an inch.

Kane jumped back to create a gap between them.

"Why are you stopping?" Neo questioned.

"This is the first thing I need to teach you," Kane said. "Why didn't you dodge my last attack?"

"Because I could tell the attack was a feint."

"How? Did you do it by instinct?"

"No."

Neo answered.
