Two Hands

Sakrael and Little Barney's seemingly even match lasted only a few minutes.

The second Naki finished speaking, Sakrael threw his entire body into the attack.

Clang!

Amid the ear-piercing ring, Sakrael's axe caught Barney's sword at a bizarre angle.

Little Barney's pupils contracted.

"You fight like a northerner," Sakrael's left arm crossed upward, catching his opponent's thrusting shield with perfect accuracy.

"But your thinking is still that of a Starry Sky Person."

Little Barney gritted his teeth and held against the other man's strength. The two faced each other in a trembling deadlock.

"You should know, northerners have no distractions..."

As their strength clashed, Sakrael leaned toward Little Barney at point-blank range and shook his head impassively.

"They never hesitate."

Amid everyone's cries of alarm, Sakrael suddenly released the axe handle, letting Little Barney's blade slash across his shoulder and draw blood!

In the next moment, before he could celebrate his success, Little Barney suddenly felt his footing give way. Unable to dodge, he was caught around the waist by Sakrael, who used his momentum to lift him bodily into the air!

Damn it!

Amid his shock and fury, Little Barney had only enough time for that thought to surface before Sakrael slammed him heavily onto the ground.

Thud!

Dazed and blinded by pain, Little Barney knew the situation was lost. He endured the pain and shouted:

"Nai, Talding!"

At that moment, two sharp gusts of wind closed in from behind Sakrael's head!

In the blink of an eye, Sakrael hurriedly dodged, narrowly avoiding the two lifesaving darts fired from Nai's hand.

When he turned back, Talding's merciless blade and sword were already upon him!

Talding's swordplay followed an extremely strange trajectory. For a moment, it forced the empty-handed Sakrael to retreat several steps and pick up a war hammer
