Momentum

Cayden laughed, slamming the polearms of his battle axes together as he stood victoriously. Without even giving Prince Kalmin another glance, he hopped once more, landing right before Ryu.

In truth, Ryu was actually slightly taller than Cayden now, it was just that his frame was more slender and compact due to his Bone Structure. However, Cayden now looked down toward Ryu, standing on a stair one level above his own.

"Let's hope that you're as smart as Prince Kalmin, Fourth Brother. Your elder brother here is very worried for you. Without any warriors by your side, could it be that you plan to clear this trial alone?" Cayden laughed, pointing an axe toward the still meditating Ryu.

"Attacking my step is the most foolish thing you could do. But, please do go ahead." Ryu replied calmly.

"Foolish, you say?" Cayden's chest vibrated in amusement.
