Hunting for Shade (16)

SWOOOSH

A blade slipped past Ramon, one under his own command. He directed it to strike the man before him, a colossus wielding an enormous sword.

The blades under Ramon's control circled the man like starving predators on the hunt, but that guy was phenomenal. He wielded his sword as if it was a damn tooth picker.

There weren't any other chances. That sword was too big, and the man's ease in wielding it was too extreme.

But it wasn't only that, that guy was also skilled. Many times Ramon attacked him from behind, and many times he failed delivering a lethal blow.

No, he failed to deliver a single one. It was as though the man had eyes on the back of his head.

Unperturbed by Ramon's blades, the giant charged forward, swinging his weapon in an arc to intercept Ramon's strikes.
