Chapter 41: Illix is outmatched

Her feet moved like whispers across the ground, silent and deliberate.

Her every motion was a study in patience and precision. She moved inch by inch, careful not to disturb even a speck of dust.

Her fingers grazed the floor lightly as she crawled forward, her gaze locked on her target.

Her muscles were tense, coiled like springs, ready to explode into action the moment the opportunity presented itself.

The world around her seemed to fade away; there was no sound, no distraction—only her and her prey.

Illix’s chain snapped through the air with a sharp, metallic hiss, each link gleaming as it raced toward its target.

But Trois had anticipated the move, her body already shifting before the attack had fully begun.

She was there, just beyond its reach, her movements quick and calculated like a predator weaving through danger.

The chain struck the ground with a dull, heavy thud, sending a small cloud of dust into the air, but Trois remained untouched, her gaze locked firmly on Illix.

Her boots barely skimmed the dirt as she shifted her weight, her stance steady yet fluid.

The gap between her and the deadly chain felt impossibly small, but it was all she needed.

Every muscle in her body hummed with tension, her sharp reflexes keeping her just ahead of the weapon’s deadly reach.

She sidestepped in a blur of motion, her feet gliding across the dirt with the grace of a dancer.

The chain whistled past her, so close that she felt the faint brush of cold metal against her sleeve, but she was already beyond its reach.

Her timing was flawless, her movements seamless, as if she were reading Illix’s every thought.

Without hesitation, she pivoted on her back foot, the momentum carrying her forward with deadly intent.

Her first sword moved like lightning, the blade slicing through the air with a precise, unerring thrust.

The steel,found its mark, slipping past Ilix’s defenses and driving into the exposed side of his torso.

The strike was deliberate and exact, aimed at a vulnerable spot that sent a jolt of pain coursing through his body.

Illix’s eyes widened, his breath catching in his throat as the sharp edge bit into his flesh.

The force of the blow drove him back a step, his grip faltering on the chain for a brief moment.

Blood welled at the site of the strike, staining the fabric of his tunic, but Trois didn’t linger to savor the moment.

She was already repositioning,her movements swift and purposeful, readying herself for whatever came next.

Illix howled in pain, the guttural cry echoing through the arena, raw and unrestrained.

His hands instinctively flew to his side, clutching at the wound as blood seeped through his fingers, staining his pale skin a deep crimson.

His breathing grew shallow and uneven, each inhale a struggle as the sharp sting of the injury radiated through his body.

The strength in his stance faltered, his legs trembling slightly as he staggered backward, trying to steady himself.

His once commanding presence now seemed shaken, his face contorted in agony and frustration.

The chain in his grip slackened momentarily, its deadly rhythm broken as the pain forced him to recalibrate.

The crowd’s cheers wavered, a mix of shock and awe rippling through the stands as they watched the mighty Illix, brought to his knees by Trois’ precision.

Illix swung his chain wildly, the weapon lashing through the air with reckless desperation. The once-controlled movements of a skilled fighter were now replaced by frantic, chaotic strikes as he tried to create space between himself and Trois.

The chain’s metallic links clattered against the ground and sliced through the air in wide, unpredictable arcs, a whirlwind of aggression born from pain and panic.

But Trois was relentless, her focus unshaken by his erratic assault.

Her eyes stayed locked on him, calculating each wild swing with precision.

As the chain came hurtling toward her, she moved swiftly, her body folding low to the ground.

She ducked under the flailing weapon.

The chain passed harmlessly over her head, its force kicking up dust as it struck the ground behind her.

Trois wasted no time. She surged forward, closing the distance with unyielding determination, her every step driving her closer to her faltering opponent, and slashed at his legs, falling him down.

Illix’s breathing came in shallow, ragged bursts, each one a struggle as his strength steadily drained away.

Sweat dripped from his brow, mixing with the blood staining his side, and his grip on the chain trembled with the effort it took to wield it.

Desperation flashed in his eyes as he made his next move, his instincts screaming for control in a fight that was slipping from his grasp.

With a sudden surge of determination, he flicked his wrist, sending the chain snapping toward Trois in a calculated arc.

This time, his aim wasn’t to strike but to ensnare, the links twisting and spinning in a deadly attempt to coil around her.

If he could bind her arms, her legs—anything—he might gain the time he desperately needed to regroup.

The chain hissed through the air like a serpent striking its prey, its movements swift and menacing.

But Trois was faster. Her body reacted before the danger could fully take form, her sharp instincts guiding her like a sixth sense.

She pivoted on her heel, narrowly avoiding the first loop of the chain as it lashed past her.

Each flick of the chain was met with a calculated step, a subtle shift, leaving Illix’s attempts futile.

Her focus was unwavering, her eyes locked on Illix as she closed the distance between them once more.

His efforts to trap her only served to make him weaker, the weight of the chain dragging him down with every failed attempt.

For Trois, the openings in his defenses were becoming clearer with every passing second.

Trois darted past Illix in a blur, her movements impossibly swift and precise.

Her twin swords glinted as they sliced through the air, each motion deliberate and deadly.

Illix barely had time to flinch before she was already behind him, her presence a shadow of danger pressing closer with each heartbeat.
