Immediately, the black-haired swordsman reached for his katana, and without giving Neraxis much time to react, swung it horizontally.
Neraxis attempted to negate the attack by somehow propelling his body backward, however, it seemed like the swordsman had managed to grip onto him firmly.
Therefore, the moment the sword hit, Neraxis was split in two along the abdomen.
However, he didn't stay in two for long, as time began moving at a normal speed once again, and the moment it did, Evangeline finally stepped in.
She arrived in the blink of an eye, and with a full-power punch, decimated the swordsman's jaw and sent him hurtling into the ground, skidding several dozen meters away from them.
"Hmm... I guess you were caught off guard?" Evangeline asked as she held two parts of his body together, making it easier to regenerate.
