Chapter 06: Asuna "The Flash"

We were already fighting for over ten minutes by the time i was injured fo the first time. We've been going back and forth, always pushing each other back, just to be pushed back the other second. We were both starting to breath heavily, i, because i had to use my speed, and he, because he had to use his strenght.

"you're not bad kid" he complimented me, as he took another swing with his axe. "You're not.. bad either.." one rule of honor in fighting, always compliment the other if they compliment you. It was a rule i made for myself.

We used swings and slashes, thrusts and blows, trying to kill, or at least injure the other heavily, it was a fight with no ending in sight.

But then that happened. The door to the bossroom creacked open and party from before came out. When i noticed them watching us, i stupily turned my head towards them for a second. Toffi used this to make a upwards slam with his axe, wich i could barely block.

I say blocked, but actually i just took the hit with my sword and flew back into the wall at my back. The game calculated the amount of force the impact had, and gave me the paralized effect because my spine was done for.

"You were a pretty tough one, i'll leave you that, but i'm out of time." His face was so close to me when he said that, that i could feel his breath on my face.

He took his axe in both of his hands, raised it up and... Just before i thought i would die, i could hear a swordskill being discharged. The next thing i heard was a grown. When i opened my eyes, Toffi missed one arm, and had to hold his axe with the other one.

When i looked around for the one who did it, i saw here. Asuna "The Flash". The vice-commander of the Knights of the Blood Oath. An elite who was fighting at the front.

"Are you okay?" Her voice was kind of sweet, but she had a bitter undertone in her voice. "Uh... Yeah. I'm okay.. I guess?" i really didn't know how to reply. I mean, she was a real beauty. And although i wasn't interested in her, i still felt a little nervous. I mean, who wouldn't feel nervous when someone like her just saved you fucking ass?

"Y-You.. Fucking.. BI~TCH!" Toffi's voice, once again boomed trough the dungeon paths, now louder then ever. Even a blind and deaf person could've know how angry he was. His bloodlust rose to a level where i had to supress my senses because it gave me a huge headache. I've never ever seen someone be so angry at someone.

"OI?! What the heck's going on here ya'll?" The leader of the other group asked after a few moments of silence. My group leader explained to him, that we were ambushed by this red player after they went into the bossroom and i held him back from killing them, and just before i died Asuna came to save me.

When he heard that, he drew his weapon and wanted to help me, but my group leader stopped him from going to me because "It's to dangerous, the two of them are good enough, don't risk your life". I knew his intensions though. He knew exactly that i wanted to earn my money myself, and didn't want anyone to interrupt.

Although i didn't want anyone else in this fight, i didn't mind Asuna, since she saved me.

She walked towards me, and used a healing crystal one me, restoring my health, and removing the "paralized" status from me. "Can you still fight?" She asked me. I was sure she expected a no, considering her face when i said "Yeah. Let's finish this"

"Then come at me! I'll tear off your heads and shove you up your fucking asses!" I really had to hold back from laughing at this stupid sentence. Asuna and i looked at eacht other and moments later, we both dashed towards Toffi screaming "AHHHHHHHH!"
