Chapter 50: DIFFERENCE

Rushing forward I swung my sword in a horizontal manner as I side stepped to the right landing a direct hit on my attacker with a swift strike as he hurriedly backstepped.

Rushing after him, I used a follow up vertical cut as I brought my sword down, he clasped his palms together as he stopped my sword midway.

Smiling he said "Fool, I've got you now!" as he twisted his clasped palms, he tried to pry the sword out of my hands by force.

I leapt into the air as I twisted my body in midair in the direction my sword was turning using the force from his sudden counterattack to stabilize myself as I landed back on the floor, he punched me in my stomach.

Stumbling back, I gripped my katana tighter in my hands, the difference in technique utilization was barely closed by the using the analytical ability of my eyes but even then, I was still struck this was the difference between the both of us.

"How is this guy able to find holes in my movements?" I wondered as I looked at him.
