Ryu seemed to toy with Yeger Sun. The Fiend tried his best to keep up, using his two sabers to block and attack, looking for openings.
But it was useless.
Yeger had already escaped Ryu once before during the Godblade Title Battle, knowing that he would be at a disadvantage because Ryu already understood his battle style.
He thought that outside of that Title Battle, he would be able to make a great difference, using his other abilities to bridge the gap. At least back then, he hadn't truly gone all out with things—it hadn't been time yet.
But even when he brought out his full host of abilities, it was like it didn't matter. Ryu saw through them and countered them as though he had already seen it all before.
Recalling the battle he had just seen against the Dragons, Yeger realized that Ryu had somehow transitioned to an even higher state of comprehension.
It was then his eyes widened.
