A snarl escaped Furia's mouth.
However, it was cut short as she jumped back, managing to evade a direct hit, but was sent flying a dozen meters by the impact.
The juvenile Eiktharien's shifting polearm left her with less trouble stabilizing her footing.
Only, the ambusher was more determined to slay her than she expected.
Daru burst into a blur, halting mid-way and slashing a massive azure crescent at Furia.
She had only recovered her balance when she was sent staggering back again after being forced to block the devouring projectile.
The strange branch in her arm kept morphing into advantageous shapes the entire time.
Quickly enough, the juvenile Eiktharien wrestled her balance back.
A shadow loomed over her.
Daru, utilizing Phantom Lunge, turned invisible for a moment, reappearing mid-lunge. The Eiktharien raised her polearm, changing its shape into a greatsword.
She was sent skidding back a few centimeters, but that was how the ambush ended.
It has now become a duel.
