The Lightning Magus Knight (II)

I was very surprised at the speed Senior Trent showed as he lunged at me. I almost lost my bearings and I was lucky to barely dodge when I saw the blade on his halberd already a few centimeters in front of me. But as I said, barely.

I tried to dodge to the left but he managed to nick me on my right shoulder which tore my sleeve. I used Rile to push his halberd away then swung Sanx in an arc in an attempt to hit him. But Senior Trent ducked and swung his halberd on my legs which I managed to jump over.

I reinforced some energy on my legs and jumped out of the way then somersaulted a few times before landing a few feet away from him.

“You have nice reflexes.” he grinned. “But, I thought you’re a mage? How come you can do things a martial artist can do?”

“What about you? What’s your problem?!” I exclaimed at him. “You attacked me all of a sudden!”

“I told you… I want to fight you.”

-My gosh… Is this guy a battle maniac of some sort?
