*Clang* *Clang*
On a black fighting stage in some unknown location, there were 2 individuals engaged in a sword fight. One of them had a solemn look on his face as he brandished his sword multiple times in the direction of his opponent. As for the opposing figure, he had a carefree expression on his face as he received all the strikes from the dignified man with ease. These two were respectively Sato and his duplicate.
The nonchalant duplicate thrust its sword at Sato right after it spotted an opening, sending him back by 3 steps. It then pressed on and slashed out a flurry of sword strikes at Sato, dealing continuous damage on him, before sending him flying with a sword slash.
*Thud*
10 seconds later, Sato's body reappeared close to the edge of the fighting stage.
"Again!"
