Whether out of foolish arrogance or foolhardy pride, this was gonna be his downfall, jumping from the top of the roof, Lucian landed to ground below, the bandit brandished his weapon and began to circle, his eyes were cold orbs of calculated killing intent. Lucian could tell this wasn't going to be a simple fight whoever this man was, he was definitely prepared for whatever he could face. The two combatants circled one another, neither one wanting to make the first move. At a few more moments of posturing, the man attacked with a violent running horizontal slash aimed to bisect him at the waist, pushing backward Lucian watched the blade pass harmlessly in front of him. Without letting up the man roared and followed up with another horizontal slash, followed by a downward slam. Dodging backward again, Lucian could feel that he was being backed into the corner, noticing the wall at his back at the last moment Lucian rolled to the right, the sword scraping against the wall where his head would have been.
Whirling around, the bandit went to continue his attack but this time Lucian was ready. The bandit followed up with a charging attack, his blade arcing forward with another horizontal slash, timing the weapons speed, Lucian rolled under the incoming attack, activating the strength of the primal spell, the bandit's eyes grew wide as he tried to halt himself but it was too late, folding his arm, Lucian gathered the mana into his arms and forced his energy into the chest of the large brute. His body going slack as the magic exploded through his body.
Letting the big man fall where he did, Lucian saw the guards come running up, having rounded up some of the stragglers. Looking down at the impressive man, the guards begin to tie him up. Thanking him for his work, Lucian grabbed on to the bag of jewels he was given and walked away.
