103 103. Bombardment (2)

Seeing that they were in a stalemate, Lucius suddenly changed his stance, causing his sword to slide across and redirect Louis's own sword, allowing him to slip in past his guard.

But right as he was about to land a direct attack, Louis showed off a set of exquisite footwork, allowing him to deftly retreat a few steps backwards enough to properly block Lucius's attack, leading them to exchange another force sword bout.

"Your skills aren't bad for a first year," commented Louis

"If you were up against a regular Mage like Veronica, you may have won but she doesn't seem to have told you. The Beaumont family is not just mages. Traditionally, they have always been magic swordsmen!"

Lucius didn't care about Louis's words and continued to fight and soon Louis didn't have the time to let off any more quipu remarks as his face soon tuned a little grim as he had to try his best to fight back fiercely!
