While Zaroth and his beasts were busy fighting off four of the Council members, Eldros was locked in battle with Hector.
Though Eldros was highly skilled, the setting was unfamiliar. For the first time, he faced an opponent towering over three meters tall.
Most people would find themselves scared or at least cautious on attacking blindly; the enemy was much taller, meaning they had a longer reach.
But this wasn't the case at all, as Eldros used giant swords with a reach longer than a meter, while Hector used his hands that were covered in black scales to attack. Despite his height disadvantage, Eldros had the upper hand.
With a swift movement, he slashed with his right sword.
Hector scoffed, crimson eyes blazing with battle fury, and caught the blade with one scaled hand. The dense black armor on his skin absorbed the blow without cracking.
Unwilling to let go of the advantage, Hector attacked, punching with his other hand aiming for Eldros' ribs.
