Draiss just smirked, and kept talking. "Considering I fought beside her, and fought against her eleven times, killing her every time, I think I can damn well call her a pyromaniac, a psycho, and a bitch. I knew her when Barid was just a human, and I was just a commoner. Before the kitsunes, dragons, elves, and others. And child... I already know all your moves. After all, this is round two."<br/><br/>He abruptly stepped into the next attack, taking it at half strength, which still caved in a rib or two, but gave him a sudden, crushing blow with the butt of the mace to his face, following it up with a powerful, overhand finishing blow that wasn't expected to hit, but should cause him to dodge into a massive beyonder energy weave that would hopefully rip him apart. Of course, he also could dodge the other way, into a balefire beam, which would be fun too.
