I walked into the second last room.
"Katie!"
Said Zeljion.
"Hi."
He added.
"Hello, Zel."
"I'm going to teach you some dodging skills. I know it sounds super boring. But you get to use everything you've learned previously with me. So. Basically, I'm going to attack you. And your going to dodge my attacks, and attack back."
"Great.."
I said and sighed.
"Alright. I'm ready."
I said and half smiled. I was kinda proud of myself. I mean. I've gotten this far. Zeljion ran at me. Taking out his knife mid-way. I didn't really know any runes yet... So.... I just did the only thing I could do. Blocked my face with my wrists. He went in for the cut, and there was a small blue light where the knife collided. It didn't hit me. But that blue light.
"Hm. Your rune is a lot stronger than it should be right now. I see you've already learned how to block with a force."
Zeljion said as he disarmed himself.
"Uh... I wasn't taught anything about this yet..."
"I know. I was supposed to show you a little blocking skills with dodging skills too. Your rune is powerful, newbie."
"Okay."
I said. Zeljion slowly and discretely armed himself again. And went for another cut. He was again blocked. By a weaker force now. He was able to break the guard with pressure. A small, bloody cut appeared on my right wrist. I bit my lip to deal with the little bit of pain. He went for another cut, and I took out my dagger and blocked with it. I pushed him off of me using my dagger.
"Good. Your good. Good enough, anyway. Go see Luke. I hope he takes it easy on you."
