Renan exhaled slowly, gripping his katana. In one swift motion, he pulled it free from the goblin's severed hand and took a combat stance.
Both fighters locked eyes, their muscles tensing.
And in the next heartbeat—they vanished.
*BOOM!*
Renan's katana clashed against Vargok's fist, which was covered by a pitch-black gauntlet adorned with spikes on the knuckles.
*CRACK*
Renan's katana, which had remained steady throughout the fight, now had small cracks forming across its surface.
Vargok, noticing this, smirked, his large yellow teeth bared. "It looks like your puny weapon can't handle my might," he sneered, withdrawing his fist and immediately throwing another punch aimed directly at Renan's katana.
"Tch," Renan snorted, realizing Vargok's true intention. He wasn't simply trying to break the weapon; he was using it as a distraction, To hit him through it, Understanding this, Renan quickly retreated to maintain some distance while throwing a katana at Vargok.
*SHATTER*
