Aerith readied her sword, getting into her stance then light energy surrounded her body. She dashed toward me and launched a swift slash toward me, but my automatic defenses activated, blocking the attack immediately.

Aerith moved around me at light speeds, launching a barrage of slashes, but my automatic defenses couldn't keep up, a few slices landing upon my body. Aerith appeared in front of me at light speeds, slashing upward and knocking me into the air.

'Hmph...is he not even going to try? All of that bravado, yet he isn't even going to throw a counter attack,' Aerith thought, the blade of her sword shining brightly.

"Radiant Crush!" Aerith bellowed, thrusting her sword at me, landing a powerful thrust at one of my energy points, blowing me away.
