Sihan stood in front of his opponent, who obviously had the shock of his life since Theo or Alea was supposed to be the one standing before him.
Sihan took a deep breath and looked Kyoichi in the eyes.
"Ahaha, I am sweating right now." Kyoichi shook his head helplessly.
"I don't care." Sihan squinted his eyes as he raised his shield and pulled his sword with a serious expression. "All I need to do is defeat you."
"Match starts!"
Kyoichi leaped forward and unleashed the first attack. His katana glowed in red as he waved his sword from the side.
Sihan went to the side to push the sword with his shield, but the red glow turned into a red fire that burst out of his weapon, creating a small explosion whose force helped push Sihan back.
As if already preparing for it, Sihan adjusted his stance and managed to stop the force with only one step back.
