Aurelia’s icy stare didn’t leave Rudain. Not even as one of their guards intercepted her. One thrust pierced through his chest, and one shove sent him to the floor. Then, as shock settled on Rudain’s typically stoic features, she smirked.
By the time Yusef’s scimitar came down, Rudain had a blade in their hand. It was a near thing thing though, with both of the demon’s scaly hands gripping the hilt of his fine jeweled blade.
“A couple paladins isn’t enough to take on the Evening Star that Raises in Scorpio!” Rudain crowed, finally overcoming the deadlock and pushing Yusef back, just a step or two. Just off guard long enough for Aurelia to strike, her thin blade stabbing right at one wrist and punching through. He pulled away before she could follow up with another strike, only to twist and writhe as Yusef landed a slash into his ribs.
“You feel that, Rudain? That’s fear,” Aurelia taunted, darting in again with her thinblade. They blocked, but it merely sent her blade off true, and she still managed to nick a thin line along their cheek. Black blood swelled at the wound, and rolled down like a dark tear before splattering on the ground.
“Not fear,” Rudain insisted, stronger than Aurelia would have liked. They ran their injuried wrist over the scimitar, smearing dark ichor over the blade until it too crackled with dark, smokeless flame. “No, my dear, this is merely thrill. Finally, a worthy opponent.”
