Chapter 310 - 309. A Father’s Pride (3)
Despite the fact I and Lyall hadn’t had our spar in a long time, it seemed as if we were still pretty much in sync with our styles. I kept myself on defense first watching as his ruthless attacks came showering on me at blinding speed.
He was the kind of fighter who wouldn’t let my eyes wander, I could forget about the world and fight with him till death if possible. Not that we would ever fight like that.
Our swords clashed frequently but none of us landed an attack on the other, I had held back as much physical strength as I could to enjoy this thoroughly. Lyall, though, seemed like he was having a bit hard time, after a couple of minutes of us continuously fighting.
I slashed my sword at him and he ducked back before I saw as his sword, which was aimed right for my heart thrust right at me. I didn’t have time to move my sword so, I gripped the blade with my bare hand before it could reach my heart or rather, the egg which was sitting right above it. I was indestructible but the egg wasn’t.
I heard a loud gasp coming from Dad but then I let go of the sword and our fight continued.
"Sh-He grabbed that sword with his bare hand." I heard Dad gasp.
"It’s fine, Uncle Duke, nothing can hurt Master." Rowan said.
"Master is a D-" I heard Sylvia almost speak it but then she cleared her throat, "Master is invincible, he can face hundreds of blades yet, none would be able to even put a scratch on him."
My and Lyall’s spar continued for a tad bit long time and when we did stop we realised that we had taken around two hours. It was humanly impossible for anyone to fight for that long but I guess Lyall was ascending his human status.
Lyall drew ragged breaths as he doubled over leaning on his long sword and I wiped the dust that coated over my clothes, my breath was only a bit unstable with my heart pounding in synchronisation with the egg.
Dad rushed over to me and took my hand with which I had grabbed Lyall’s blade earlier.
