"Old friend? I will never be a friend to such an arrogant and moron! Humph!"

Stefanie's response surprised him, before he laughed shortly at her as he exited the hatch of the fighter. "Hurry up and appear then, we have no time for chit chat or acting angry here," he said, as he stood in the space, supported by the small place adjustments of his suit.

"So, you are the dirty one that I shall kill?"

The youth was so rude and arrogant that the moment James appeared, he spoke with mockery, while taking out his sword from his scabbard.

The sword was long, curved, and shiny! The edge was sharp that if it felt upon a planet, it would cleave it into two halves.

James didn't reply over the words he heard directly to his mind, as he waved his hand, and the next moment his scepter appeared again in this universe.

"Oh, so my sword said he pumped your sexy rod many times that he wasted her, it seems to me you got a second hand item here, hahahaha!"

The youth seemed really arrogant, and his words made the blood inside James boil. "Use your weakest attack," he suddenly said, as he waved his scepter in an obvious, overacting angry move which resulted in a wave of light energy moving towards that youth.

"Pathetic!" Shenoda simply replied, before waving his sword simply to negate the attack. "So you aren't only using a second hand rod, but you also didn't manage to unlock all of her abilities. What a shame! Let me show you the might of my sword then."

The words of Shenoda fell lightly on the ears of James, who had so much experience in dealing with this kind of jerks. He had framed and got rid of many of such arrogant and impulsive personalities back at his camp base, and now these experiences seemed to be handy.

The key wasn't to go full out and try to crush them in one full sweep, this wouldn't succeed at att as usually they had a trick or two under their sleeves to back their arrogance up.

So, the best way was to fool them, making them lower their guards, then like a viper hit them stealthily and quietly, killing them with cold blood amidst the moment they wrongly thought it would be of their victory.

"Be ready, just defend using your weakest defenses, and attack with another weak attack," James said, as he retreated to the back, while his enemy kept closing up on him.

"Why are you running? Don't worry, my sword still likes your sexy rod, so he promises to take care of her after your death. Die then and don't waste my time!"

Shondo waved his sword, and the next moment a bigger wave of dark light energy erupted, many folds greater than that of James, who feigned a look of terror, while waving his rod to form a shield that didn't manage to hold for even a minute there.

As the shield was broken, James took a slight hit of the attack, despite his ability to completely evade it, but he purposely took a hit there and even bleeded.

"Tsk, your luck is good! But I promise, the next time you won't feel anything as I will manage to properly kill you."

Shondo then waved his sword again, while getting much closure to James, and another wave of light attack erupted towards him.

"Are you sure this sword only uses light attacks in waves like this?" Despite the frightened look over his face, James was inwardly so calm and collected as he thought to himself, asking Stefanie.

"He also has a sealing effect like me, and many more things but I think the limit of this arrogant master is to use only these two attacks of this arrogant sword!"

"Hmm… interesting. Then what about you? Only the wave attack and the sealing?" he asked, while waving the rod to form a defensive shield that was shattered in a minute, and again he was injured slightly.

"I have a very interesting ability," she smirked as she then explained further in detail to him, while Shondo became really agitated by his second failure.

"Damn you! You are like a nasty fish! I hate fishing, and hunting! Stay put, I will come to chop your head off your shoulders!"

James tried to retreat faster, acting somehow desperate, while inwardly he calmly said:

"Be ready to use the sealing effect when ready."

"Aren't you going to use your full power?" Stefanie asked, as James' line of thoughts confused her about this. He didn't plan to use his full power, instead he would make it as if he won Shondo by mere fluke.

"We are hunting an arrogant cub here, but don't forget there is a lion watching us from near distance."

His reply gave Stefanie more light about his plan, and she didn't object anymore. As James retreated, and Shondo hastily chased, the distance between the two got smaller and smaller, until the two were really seeing each other clearly with a few meters distance between them.

"Die!" Shondo was furious and impatient, as he waved his sword in a stabbing motion. The sword moved towards Jim's chest, trying to claim his heart, yet it didn't!

James just flipped over himself a couple of rounds, getting the sword to injure his shoulder only with a mere scratch wound. as Shondo glanced with disbelief towards his third failure in a row, the next thing he felt was the scepter heavy hit over his head as James stopped spinning suddenly and used the momentum to hit him.

"Seal!" James softly muttered, and the next moment the whole body of Shondo was covered with a black and white layer of thin coated film that acted as a freezer, keeping Shondo in the same position, in the same expression; motionless in place.

He was successfully sealed! But that didn't please James as the next moment he grabbed the sword and the scabbard from the frozen Shondo, and then glanced towards the front.

He waited!
