Why won’t things ever go according to plan?

I didn't have a chance at that speed without Imbuition and I knew it. Plus it was too dark to see. 

So imbuition it was. 

First the spear, then my armor. 

My light emanated from me also improved my range of sight. 

This was a lot better than just swinging blindly. Then again, I hadn't actually made a single swing yet. 

So, I tried to swing, and Ve dodged, closing in on the gap, smiling- punching me on the stomach. "You do realize, this is a spear right?"

Yeah, no shit. 

She promptly moved back.

And I would have loved it if she were at least teaching me something. 

'Should've just taken up on Gorgon's offer.' Too late to regret now though. 

I took a deep breath. Ve's punch actually didn't hurt that much. She was either pulling her punches or my defenses were a lot higher than before. Probably the former. "Then don't you think you should teach me?" This time, I thrust the spear.
