He hit hard and kept moving, but Hotaru closed the distance and flung one of her dangerous icy spheres at him. He was pretty sure he'd helped her upgrade those, and he definitely didn't want to get hit by one! But... was she hesitating? Just a heartbeat?
He twisted to the side as it skimmed by and exploded harmlessly behind him.
And his nose wrinkled, drawing his scowl into a perplexed expression.
Since Ru had so kindly closed the distance, the courier finished what she had started: he swapped his Dagger to his other hand and changed direction abruptly, launching himself towards her. A few steps away he hit the sand on his knees and attempted to skid past her in a spray of sand as he drove his fist towards the cut on her leg.
"Y'don't need to go easy on me!" he growled in passage, his voice gruff with adrenaline but his pale eyes offering a rough reassurance. Thanks to Ru's teaching, he was tough enough to take what she could dish out.
No sooner had he made it passed her then he noticed something rising from the nearby waves, and it was Tal's turn to succumb to distraction.
Look, a Tumsea!
