The two were throwing punches mid-air, and then... Stephanie's sword fell out of her hand.

Maximus seized the opportunity, pointing the tip of his sword at her throat.

Stephanie felt a pang of disappointment. How could she lose this fight?

With her sword gone, she had no chance against him. All she could do was grit her teeth and stay in the role. The murderous look in her eyes vanished in an instant.

Maximus raised an eyebrow. "Why do you want to kill me?"

"It was a misunderstanding! I wasn't trying to kill you. I just wanted to have a little duel with you!"

"A duel?"

"Exactly!"

"You expect me to believe that?"

"Believe it or not, that's the truth!"

If her opponent became speechless and couldn't keep acting, well, that wouldn't be her problem.

Maximus asked, "Aren't you afraid I might kill you?"
