Chapter 171: A win for Excalibur!

As their weapons connected with a deafening clang, Benihime and Halton's faces came within inches of each other. Halton's lips twisted into a sly grin as he spoke, taunting his opponent.

"What is it? Looks like you're getting a little tired," He muttered, pressing the full weight of his body against Benihime's blade. Suddenly, he jerked his head back and launched a massive headbutt directly at her forehead.

Benihime's eyes widened in surprise, but she managed to react quickly enough to twist her head to the side, barely avoiding the full brunt of the attack. As Halton stumbled back, she lunged forward with a swift jab of her sword, aiming for his heart.

But Halton was not so easily defeated. He raised his hammer just in time to deflect her blow, the force of the impact causing the ground to shake beneath their feet. 

With a fierce grin, he swung his weapon on the ground, causing a heavy impact that sent Benihime flying and crashing to the ground.
