Proceeding through the next portal,the hero walked into a room made out of marble,silver,and something similar to wood.Inside was a man,sitting on what seemed like a meditating position.As the hero walked in,the man stood up,and turned around to face him.Sensing something different about him,like he was facing a demonslayer of old,similar to those that hunted demons in the East,the swordsman bowed,before challenging the unknown warrior in a duel.The two took positions,as the duel commences.
The swordsman doesn't charge,nor does he unsheath his katana,but keeps his distance,observing the enemy and his movements.The warrior did so aswell,guarding himself using his shield,staying on guard in case the unknown swordsman attacks.While the warrior is on guard,the swordsman attacks swiftly,unsheathing his katana,an striking at the feet of the hero,who was quick enough to avoid it.With the speed of lightning,the swordsman strikes again,this time landing a blow on the hero's wrist,making him lower his shield before striking once more his neck,which he very closely avoids thanks to his helmet.The warrior retreats,and tries to figure out a strategy.Having made up a very risky plan,he charges at his foe,who performs a horizontial slash which barely scratches the warrior who slides.Quickly reacting,the swordsman prepares to pierce the hero,but is stopped,when the hero blocks it with his sword,and kicks the swordsman in the back,making him fall and roll out of harm's way.Not wasting any time,the hero is back on the offensive,delivering strong blows on the swordsman who frantically tries to avoid,without much success,as the hero lands blow after blow on his enemy's katana,pushing him even further.After landing 7 hard blows,the katana begins to crack.The swordsman,fearing he may lose his life,parries and throws the sword of the enemy to the wall,then proceeds to engage the warrior in a fistfight,overpowering him.
As he pummels the warrior relentlessly,he suddenly stops.He forcefully takes the shield,throws it away,and picks up the silver sword,before handing it to his enemy.He then picks his nearly broken sword,and performs light cuts all over his body,before removing his armor,prompting the warrior to do so aswell.Now both unprotected,injured,and armed only with a sword,they begin a final duel.
Swords clash,blood splatters,punches are delivered,and the warriors fight with all their might.As the swords strike relentlessly each other,the katana delivers a final blow,sending the sword flying,before it shatters in two.Yet the warrior does not give up.He raises his broken sword,and attacks the hero,who rolls out of harm's way and picks up his sword,before slashing the enemy's stomach,sending him into a shocked state.Collapsing to the ground,the warrior rises up,in bowing position,and hands the hero a small ring,telling him it was his clan leader's,given to only the greatest warrior,before commiting honorable suicide.
The hero rises,bows one last time,and leaves,now armed with the knowledge given to him by the soul of the warrior,and the ring,imparting him with the legacy of Basonne,the Blade of the East.
