She was fast.
Her speed wasn't quite on Morishita's level, but she was still moving quickly enough to be considered impressive. In terms of speed, she was roughly comparable to Sakai, which meant that she was certainly faster than the average person.
She immediately went for a slash.
Her sword came diagonally toward my side, the mana surrounding the blade making the attack considerably more dangerous than an ordinary sword strike.
I moved my wooden sword into position and blocked it.
The impact traveled through my arm, but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle.
Kaori, however, didn't hesitate after her first attack failed.
She recovered from the blocked strike almost immediately and followed up with another attack.
Then another.
At the same time, flames began spreading across the blade of her sword.
The fire wrapped around the weapon and danced along its edge, making her next attack considerably more threatening.
"Raaaaahh!"
Kaori shouted as she swung again.
