Durin was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
In that instant, he thought of that night when a girl had once said this to him.
Let's escape to the ends of the earth.
But the ends of the earth are too far, while you and I, who fought to the death, are too close.
In the next instant, he sidestepped a flying Spiritual Dagger, bringing out a Longsword with his left hand from his own space. Durin silently used his sword body to block the dagger spiraling mid-air toward his neck, then exchanged the Longsword between his hands and threw it towards the girl.
In the next second, Durin propelled himself forward, spinning with his right leg as an axis, and lashed his left leg like a whip toward the familiar stranger before him.
Breaking the control over the dagger, faced with the incoming Longsword, the girl deflected it with her left hand, then sidestepped, using her right hand as a shield to parry Durin's spinning whip kick.
