The three of us just stood there for a brief moment, and as if everything clicked together at once, our figures vanished.
SWOOOOSH!
BZZZZZZZZZT!
Reappearing beside Alexius, I swung my blade down at his chest. As he was about to catch it, Clementine's Soul Knights stepped in, appearing from above and sending an onslaught of attacks that forced him back.
Yet even as he teleported through the sky, I was right on him. Each time he reappeared, I was there, waiting with my blade. It got to the point where Alexius clearly realized that running away and making distance was impossible.
And so, for the first time ever, he decided to go on the offensive.
A dark purple armor set appeared around him. Even though I knew I could counter it, the amount of energy it was exuding was way too much. Not only that, I felt like if I were to strike with my blade, my katana would break.
So I also decided to switch up my tactics.
