"But charging in blindly against me was a bad decision. I expected better from you," he remarked, his tone laced with a touch of taunting.
Lucas, now disarmed, gritted his teeth. He knew that he had let his impatience get the better of him. Yato's critique stung, a reminder that there was still much to learn.
Yato took a step back, his katana still in hand, and observed Lucas with a measured gaze. Despite the disappointment in his words, there was a glint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Who said this is the end?"
Shing—!!
In that fleeting moment, Lucas flicked his left wrist twice, and a hidden blade sprung forth from a concealed compartment under his sleeve.
Lucas wasted no time and swiftly swung his bladed hand directly towards Yato's face.
Caught off guard, Yato's eyes widened in astonishment and realisation.
"...A hidden blade?!" Yato exclaimed, his surprise evident.
