The American was in for a very different fight than Shiro. Despite his build and height, the other guy was still 10 centimeters taller than Karslan, and had even broader shoulders than him. This looked more like a wrestling match due to the attitude and body size of the contenders than a fight between two gamers.
The referee gave the signal to start the fight; there were no feints, no tricks... the two opponents launched themselves at each other; in the center of the ring, they faced each other sword against axe, in a crazy succession that made sparks fly from the metals.
The blows were violent, strong and capable of cutting a man in half... Karslan was much faster, but his opponent's blows were much heavier; sometimes he had to back away to counter them, or else his weapons would be torn from his hands.
