Chương 1003: Chapter 1002: Further Exchange

Sparks rained down on my face and singed my skin, but even as they showered us in light and heat I kept my eyes open, staring straight into Lady Kio's eyes as we traded blows once more, going for a more direct and 'traditional' spar that was meant for learning.

In reality, it was not as nice as that sounded, since Lady Kio was intentionally lowering her speed so that she could further draw these spars out, allowing her to land more hits and vent her frustrations all the more, but...

Well, since she wasn't moving as fast as she was in the first fight, I was able to keep up and work out a way to attack her in a consistent manner that allowed me to land all sorts of hits on her as well, which only seemed to increase her frustrations since it showed that I was, in fact, competent enough to battle her on an even playing field.
