Oh no, a fight?

I had already drawn out my blade before the sword cut off my neck. I batted his sword away with my ice one. I forgot to mention, my ice one wasn't coated with ice. No, it was a blue blade with the power of turning things into ice.

My arm was still throbbing. I don't know if I can last through this without being knocked out from the pain, but I will try.

Lacton reclaimed his sword and we circled each other. He dashed towards me with surprising speed, forcing me to parry one of his slashes and dart out of my core room. We kept parrying until he decided to sweep me off my feet. I know how that sounds, but it's more dangerous than you assume.

He threw his sword towards my foot, causing me to fall backwards, as the blade actually entered my foot. He then walked over to me and took out the blade, making it hurt more. He gripped the collar of my coat and threw me towards the wall. The blood started soaking the ground more.

Then he started closing the distance between us. I kicked him with my free foot, and then threw my own blade. It pierced his armor, but not his heart.

"Failed attempt." He said. He looked at his fallen comrades bodies and smiled. 'I will avenge them.' He thought.

"Is it?" I said, and the blade started to freeze his armor. He gave me a look of anger and resentment, before it started freezing him himself. I then quickly pushed the hilt of my sword cutter in to Brea into his heart so he couldn't break through the ice.

Now I could curse to my content because my foot hurt like hell.

"FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK THIS SHIT HURTS..!" And it continued like that for 15 minutes, before I asked Bob is he could heal me.

[No, I cannot. But I can give you a health potion for all your remaining Points.]

"The hell? That's a fucking scam!"

[You rather feel the pain?]

"Ugh, fine." I said, and a flask with red liquid inside of it was shown to me. I greedily took it and chugged the bottle down. Only when I had fully healed did I get that message:

•Defense successful!

•2000 points were given.

•2837 Exp was given, you are now level 5.

• 200 bonus Exp for killing personally.

I spent the rest of the day working on my defenses. I also went back to train with the old man. And exploring in a field, I saw two children and two green-cloaked figures. This was bad.
