Fyar let out a long sigh. He ran, charging toward the seven shadows. When his position was close enough, he immediately launched several quick slashes at the two frontmost shadows. The other five shadows immediately surrounded him, attacking from various sides with their black swords.
Fyar was forced to jump back to create distance and catch his breath.
"Neutralize," he muttered softly.
Instantly, the blade of his katana was enveloped in a purple energy.
This only lasts for ten seconds, Fyar thought.
He moved forward again. He parried a slash from one shadow, spun his body to avoid a thrust from another, then retaliated with a horizontal slash that cut the first shadow in two. A few moments later, Fyar managed to slash the head of the second shadow until it vanished. Fyar was pushed back again. The five remaining shadows continuously attacked him nonstop. Fyar tried to block every attack, but his feet kept getting pushed back.
