the battle is coming to a close.

It took what felt like an eternity but now there were only 3 weapons remaining. Sadly, these were the knights Zweihänder, a freaking spoon, albeit with very sharp edges, and a morning star. Last of which I currently held in my hand. “It seems you will have to retry this another day, Master.” He had picked the habit of calling me that after I had hit him with the musket.

“I would rather not.” I said we both slowly circled around the room. “As fun as this was repeating it would be a huge hassle.”

“Then do your worst.” He shouted and stormed at me. Panicky I looked at the morning star, I had an idea, it was **** but it could work. The knight was almost in reach, I took a swing with the morning star. It seemed like was aiming at the blade at first but in reality I had another goal.

Somehow I managed to pull it off and the chain of the morning star wrapped around the Zweihänders guard while also dodging the knights piercing attack. A quick yank and the Zweihänder was pulled from my enemies grasp.

It fell to the ground where I pinned it with my foot and yanked on the chain a second time, this time it shattered, leaving me with two weapons to destroy. I used the wooden handle to give the knight’s helmet a good smack.

Too my luck and amusement the floating thing rotated a few times before coming to halt with his ‘face’ on the wrong side. This left me with enough time to pick up the Zweihänder and smash it into the ground with all my might.

The blade was worn down from the constant **** and broke right above the handle. “A cunning strategy.” The knight said and put his helmet back to place. “But you have not yet won.” He took a fist fighting stance and came at me.

Never in my life would I have imagined I would once have a fistfight with an animated armour to destroy a spoon. To be fair fistfight was putting it optimistically, I only dodged, no one in their right mind punched a plate armour.

I did hold the advantage however, the knight was not especially proficient at this type of combat while Soifon had drilled me in every possible aspect. “If you are going to become a seat in the Gotei 2 you should at least understand Hakudo.” She had said.

The oppurtinity eventually arrived and with a quick kick to his left food the knight lost his balance and crashed into the floor. I ran over to the spoon and simply snapped in half, ending this whole conflict for good.

The weapon holders disappeared afterwards and left me and the knight on the empty plaza again.
