Vayburn did not panic. He merely stilled himself as his body began to glow in a radiant golden hue. He steadied his breathing, and his hair was instantly washed completely gold.
Jacob was simply moving at a speed that was imperceptible to him. This was Vayburn's final form: Heavenly Swordmaster. In this form, Vayburn had complete mastery and divine knowledge of any blade that was held within his grasp. He would be able to manipulate any blade better than any master that existed in his world.
Jacob's initial plan was to just overwhelm the man with a nonstop barrage of invisible attacks, but now that Vayburn had gone into his final form, he could see Jacob's movements, albeit extremely swiftly, but he could follow them fairly well.
The man held his sword with both hands. Vayburn was not much of a hand-to-hand combat person, which was why he took the benefactor as quickly as possible to enable him to use his sword properly. With a sword, this man was probably unrivaled in any world.
