Bab 294: A Foolish Challenge

CLANG!

The sound of steel meeting asphalt echoed through the air as Alfonso's double edge blade struck the ground, sending sparks flying. 

Reign had dodged just in time, the blade missing his head by inches. He took advantage of the brief pause, darting in with his steak knife to slash at Alfonso's side. 

But the veteran Divergent was ready. He pivoted on his heel, bringing the hilt of his sword up in a counter-strike.

CLANG!

The knife struck only the hilt. 

Alfonso didn't waste any time. His blade sliced through the air, missing Reign's face by inches before he could jump backwards. 

He landed a few feet away, his eyes never leaving Alfonso, who was already preparing for the next attack.

"That almost got me," Reign remarked, his words contrasting with the confident smile on his face.

SLASH!

SLASH!

SLASH!

Alfonso pressed the attack, his sword a blur of motion.
