Bang!
The Shop Assistant stomped on the shop floor, charging towards Liens like a bullet.
The advantage of short-range weapons lay in close-quarters combat, so he had intended to get close to Liens from the start, but was forced back.
Seeing that negotiation was futile, he could only rely on his speed advantage to approach Liens again.
In response to the Shop Assistant's charge, Liens swung his sword.
The silver gleam, born of reflection, descended upon the charging figure with an all-cleaving posture.
The Shop Assistant changed his movement, sidestepping to dodge the longsword.
However, due to his body's inertia, his movements during the charge showed signs of a slight pause.
Before he could adjust, another of Liens's slashes came at him.
Seeing this, he could only temporarily abandon the idea of closing in, dodging the attack, and then circling Liens, beginning a mobile assault.
The Shop Assistant jumped around Liens, like a nimble rabbit.
