Kapitel 29: Combat Class (2)

Clank...

As my Katana collided with the Mana Arrow, it jerked backwards, causing my entire hand to go numb. I frowned as I felt my grip on the weapon loosen.

I focused my gaze on Katarina's shoulders instead of her face. I was aware that she was somewhat emotionless and trying to read her next move from her expression was practically impossible.

I stood a much better chance of avoiding her attacks if I observed her hand movements.

The arrow had changed its trajectory completely, acting like a boomerang and taking away my mobility in a split second.

"Shit..."
