Despite appearing very cumbersome, the agility of the Demons was not at all lacking. Lancelot was extremely fast, but after all, he launched his attack from the front, so the opponent had the time to react.
The Demon barely turned its bald, flat head to dodge the Human Knight's longsword by a hair's breadth, but the sharp Sword Qi still immediately created a fine cut on its face. Before Lancelot could change from thrust to slash, the opponent spun its halberd, using the tail end of the handle to knock his sword blade aside, and counterattacked with a ferocious chop.
Lancelot's figure flashed, and in an instant he moved to the side, letting the falling weapon separate him and another enemy, while dragging the Hand Half Sword behind him. One reason was to test the Demon's strength, the other to limit the opponent's ability to follow up with other moves.
