It was probably bullshit, fight normally

Angus is quick to make the first move, rushing forward and swinging his sword.

You parry his attack and counter with a strike of your own.

He blocks your blow, and the two of you exchange several quick strikes.

You're getting the hang of it, and start to feel confident.

But then, Angus lands a lucky hit.

His sword whack your arm, causing your form to become weakened.
