Evie stumbling backwards caused a slight grin to form along his lips again – not smug, but certainly amused. “Think about your angles,” he uttered in response, for not every motion had to be straight on; she needed to find a sufficient means that worked for her. “And how to use it offensively too,” as she’d done in the previous move. Each action could, and should, be considered to the best of efficiency.
And now, like a large, annoying gnat, his strides and pace took him on swift turns around her, contemplating, calculating, where to poke and prod and irritate. With the spear properly rotated and its hilt back in his grasp, he lunged along her side, making the movement appear as if he might be aiming for her back, before pushing it downwards, towards the length of her legs instead.
