After our little conversation, I began my relentless attack. Even though she was blocking and responding to each of my attacks, I didn't back down and moved forward.
I knew she wasn't using all her strength, but it felt like I could reach her sword if I tried a little harder... but then she grew stronger.
This blade exchange continued endlessly. I couldn't breathe easily due to my decreasing stamina, but just looking at Iyel's might made me want to fight a little more before restarting.
In the middle of the fight, I stopped using any skills since they felt like a hindrance to what I was witnessing. The path was becoming much clearer than before, even though I didn't have many passive skills for efficient fighting.
"STOP IT, Tronosive!" shouted a loud voice from afar.
I really wanted to continue the fight, but the voice was so direct that even Iyel turned to see its source, so we stopped the battle.
