Chapter 478 - Equals?

In the span of time that took a person to blink 2 or at the very most 3 times Aiden and Number 3 traded several exchanges already. Each of their hits carried a tremendous amount of their pure physical strength, able to crush even the sturdiest of rocks. 

Still, both parties were still completely fine and healthy, as they continued clashing against each other, blocking, evading, and returning the many strikes they each gifted to the other one.

From the naked, untrained eye not much would have been visible, only two blurry hazy silhouettes as they flashed around the battlefield, sometimes crossing dozens of steps seemingly in an instant. 

Their attacks slowly, but surely escalated, as, after some time, afterimages of their clashing shadows dotted the landscape for several seconds before being wafted away by the gentle summery breeze.
