He looked at her and couldn't help but wonder what her expression would be like when she eventually lost to him, as long as he had perception and defend himself without truly attacking her, he was sure he could definitely avoid all her attacks without any difficulty no matter how fast her attack was, they were as good as doing nothing in his four meters range around him, surely she would be expecting him to fail but she was definitely in for a big shock of her life.
Seeing that Bernard didn't seem like he was going to attack first, since her opponent was being cautious waiting for him was as good as useless so she decided to walk towards him instead, she also didn't want to waste time exchanging any words and simply began to walk towards him with large stride, when she was about to arrive before him she suddenly raised her spear pointing at the floor and thrust it towards him from her top left to the right towards the ground, although it looked simple everyone could tell it was fast and impressive that everyone were already wondering how would Benard dodge the attack from her.
But then as the attack got close to Bernard and was looking like it was truly going to hit him, he simply responded by spinning his body to the side to avoid the attack and at the same slashed back with his dagger at Sonia, which she also avoid by moving backward, she then looked at him with a slight surprise expression although she knew he would be able to dodge the first attack she hadn't expected him to do it with such ease as he did, making her narrow her eyes.
In the end, Sonia realize that using such attacks would have no effect considering he would simply be able to dodge her attack, so instead she increased the power and speed behind her attack and went towards Bernard, as she walked towards him she began to power up her beast weapon to attack once again, immediately she got close to him as he was about to dodge she suddenly drew an arc with her spear right in front of him, but then to her surprise he once again some how managed to dodge to the right causing her attacks to pass by his side.
However, compared to before she didn't stop there and just kept swinging her spear at him, gradually not only was the power she used in swinging her spear become more powerful but they were also becoming much stronger, severally causing more arcs to appear in the surrounding out of thin air sending them at Bernard, standing in the same position different black spears arcs filled the sky before bernard.
As Bernard saw this he knew she was gradually getting serious, so he also became serious as well even though the speed and powers of her attacks were already as twice as fast as the previous attacks, Bernard held his twin daggers a bit tighter while he was dodging some attacks he would sometimes use his daggers to fend some of them, with perception he didn't need to look back just to face the attacks he could simply wave his dagger and he would be able to fend off the attacks.
At this moment, Bernard was sure five moves were already over which meant it was remaining five more moves, however, they were not only fiercer than before but they were also much more deadly it was like she was trying to pin him with her spear, while some times it would seem like she was trying to use her spear to flog him, and Bernard knew if he didn't start moving from his position she would try to corner him after all he could see she was already starting to get annoyed that she had not been able to do anything to him for over a minute now.
What's more, Sonia had only seen him dodge her attacks without doing anything other than use his daggers to fend off some of her attacks, it was like he had no intention of truly attacking or fighting her, rather was just trying as much as possible to last through all her attacks, to her it was like he wasn't even putting any effort which was like an insult to her, making her angry she knew if she didn't start using her symbiote ability with the way things were going he would be able to dodge her attacks and once he won then she would have no choice to join his team, which was the other way around since she wanted him to join her team instead.
With that she immediately activated her symbiote bloodline, gradually her body began to feel empowered not only that her speed seemed to have shot through her roof, as she lifted her spear and swung it at Bernard before Bernard knew it the spear had arrived right before his neck, inches away from his throat however at the same time he had already placed his dagger to perfectly block her spear but he still stumbled backward.
Sophia currently had a dark expression on her face, in frustration after noticing that even with that attack she wasn't able to pierce his throat even after activating her symbiote bloodline, what's more, it had already been over seven moves yet she hadn't been able to win or gain any advantage like she had thought before, although she knew she wouldn't be able to win just like that considering the old man Quzin had praised his perception but then she had never thought things would be dragged out like this.
At this moment two of her attacks slammed into the ground of the arena several feet from Bernard, even with the toughness of the stage several inches deep mark was left across the stage, however, a moment later it began to recover back to its original position.
