บท 81: Jan Vs Alice (3)

[Pinnacle Academy, Stadium 1 - Arena A: Main Stage]

shaaaaa...

Jan felt a shift in the air, the fog was thinning just enough to cast faint, distorted shadows. This slight change was all he needed – anticipating Alice's attacks would be marginally easier. Closing his eyes, he focused his senses, waiting for her next strike.

...

...

THUD

A thud echoed through the air, an impact muffled by the fog. She's going for a surprise attack, he figured. 

SLASH!

As his Muscles tensed, he whirled around, his sword slicing through the sound of a crash in the air.

"...!"

That was when Jan realised something... It was too late! Shards of ice rained down from above, a glittering fall he'd completely misread. The thud was a decoy of Ice, a clever distraction to hide her true intent.

Shaa!

Alice emerged from the fog once again, her form dangerously close.
