Surprise Attack (Part 4)

Each time Cain attempted to get closer to the cultist, the sword would move between them and attack with a powerful blow to push him back.

Cains arms were hurting from the back and forth and he was getting frustrated. After several attempts to get closer he was still in the same place as he was when the fight began.

'Whenever I get closer the sword suddenly gets faster and stronger... Is his ability limited to a certain distance? Maybe it's stronger when it's closer to him. But if that's true then how am I gonna actually hit him...'

Several strikes from the sword were made at Cain and he managed to dodge or block most of them. One of the sword attacks managed to connect with his hip and a deep cut was created. This had happened many times and Cain was covered in wounds at this point.
