"Heeh, I like that confident air surrounding you, boy."

Astaria smiled teasingly.

Nux smiled back,

His Black Purple Sword appeared in his hand and he replied,

"Let's start the fight, shall we?"

"Heh."

Astaria chuckled, then, she raised her hand and pointed at Nux,

"Come."

Nux didn't wait either,

He disappeared and then appeared right in front of Astaria, without giving her any chance to react, he aimed at her neck, Astaria, however, simply stepped aside and dodged his attack.

Unlike Keeve, Reeve, and the others, who were having a hard time reacting to his speed, Astaria did it with ease.

This didn't affect Nux, he continued to attack, aiming at the neck, legs, shoulders, and chest, repeatedly however, Astaria continued to dodge his attacks with a teasing smile on her face.

"You are quite slow, aren't you?"

Astaria questioned.

Nux, however, completely ignored her teasing and continued to attack.

Astaria shook her head, she then dodged the sword that was aimed at her right shoulder, using that chance, she closed the distance and,

"Let's end it."

She punched his abdomen.

Soon, however, a frown appeared on Astaria's face.

She knew that her punch connected, however, something felt wrong.

She felt that most of the power behind her punch was… dispersed?

It was a strange feeling that Astaria was having a hard time describing, however, in summary, she felt that her punch didn't have the effect that it should have had.
