Ezra began his renewed battle against Oliva with fierce attacks that could easily bring down an unskilled opponent in a single blow.
Yet, Ezra's old friend and Iniquus' current thrall was an equally skilled fighter and truthfully had even more experience wielding a hard light weapon than Ezra did.
While Oliva did not possess even half of the raw physical strength Ezra did, she was quick, and her strikes possessed a deadly pression.
Using her spear, she would intercept Ezra's weapon and deflect it with the perfect angle and minimal force.
Then with a quick thrust, she would jab forward at the most difficult to defend spot in the moment and force Ezra off balance.
'She's no less skilled than she was before. Honestly, considering her current condition, it is a miracle that her abilities have not degraded. Still, I can tell that during his time, she had been unable to get better.' Ezra thought as they traded blows.
