The tension grew grave as both male face with just a spark separating them. This scene sent multiple messages into the heads of the people present, things like 'what is going on?' most of the time with alterations like 'do they know each other..?' something along that line.
On closer inspection one can the notice the similarities between the two for example the hair although one hair is brighter than the other, skin complexion, eyes, facial structure and so on
"Oh really, you have full accepted the fact that I am an outcast, forced into it by your hands" he heaved a sadden expression hidden behind the brim of his hat, his head slightly arose bringing to his perspective
"I was replaced no doubt" his sniffled but soon enough his demeanor changed the air around dropped in temperature "what brings you from on high last I checked nobles don't really pay attention to commoners beef"
This sent many wrong energy across the people, a man standing behind the man in a white dress shirt inside an ocean blue tail coat, formal shoes and white glove one would say he is the butler which he actually is rose his eye brow slightly minutely shifted his body as the statement didn't sit right with him
"Sire shall I handle him?" hearing this Asher rose an eye brow bent his upper body a little bit to evaluate the man who requested such deliberate action.
The results of the evaluation was disappointing honestly the man's entire demeanor didn't give the sensation of a fighter it was more a clerk, secretary just anyone behind the desk, his build was between scrawny and shredded the nature of his hair was rough like living in the forest rough his gaze didn't even have a shed of intensity in them
"When you are stripped of power that is when you know your compadre" using his fingers he squeezed his nose bridge as the ridiculousness of this bravado was unbelievable "you want to handle me?"
At this point Asher didn't know whether to be confused, stunned or surprised, he placed his hand over his mouth then rubbed his entire jaw revealing his mouth "and how do you pla… "Beforehe could complete his statement he realized the wind became faster
Not long while he was still daze trying to comprehend the strange sensation he is feeling unfortunately his thought process was halted the moment he slammed into a wall, his vision turned dark for a brief moment before color returned
Asher fell face first to the ground and a groan escaping his mouth as he laid there motionless digesting the pain. Seconds later he would push himself upward still disoriented he would shake his head along the horizon and not long he stood up staggering a little bit then gained his orientation as he looked towards the man
"What just happened?" his tone cracking due the pain across his spine his face contorted while his stretches cracking his spine and groaning once more, he looked ahead at the lanky man whose head was tilted slightly with miniature smile on his face
"What did you do?" his voice picked up volume and magnitude as he advanced towards the man and at this point the people surrounding the man including the commander shifted leaving only Asher and the lanky man within the circle or what looked like a circle made by how the people stood to observe
"Proper etiquette state it is proper to introduce oneself to an unknowing audience" position his hand on his chest and bowed slightly "my name is Shawn, Shawn Boreas I serve the zephyr household" he straighten his back locking both hands behind him gazing at Asher with a calm disposition
"Hi there, I am the one who is going to send you packing" Asher shot back with his facial muscle twitching, jaw bones and fists tightly clenched and vibrating, at this point his gaze had a target and locked on to that target
Asher began to advance instantly jumping into a sprint rushing towards Shawn planting his foot twisting and pulling his body forward as his fist shot through the air. At the moment of impact there was no feedback or any form of recoil it felt like there wasn't any force behind his attack
Asher gaze shifted upwards as and noticed that his wrist was in grasp of Shawn but in the next moment the ground felt like it was coming up to his face then the scenery changed and the sky was before him and before he could be fully mesmerized by it there was impact at the back of his head
His eye lids opened and closed a multiple number of time his process wasn't able to digest what just happened, one moment he was attacking the next his scenery changed and ending up on his back
He turned his head then he stood up abruptly and patted his body shaking off the sand on his attire while also examining it "I got this today and you're already ruining it hasn't even been a full day yet" Asher complained while taking a stance
Shawn looked uninterested in the fight if that is what he was supposed to call it because he felt neither threatened nor the excitement that came with fighting, he exhaled sharply, his gaze indifferent as he rotated his neck cracking the joint and interlocking his fingers producing the same result
"Do tell how to you plan to be a problem when you can't even face me properly" a curious tone reverberated piquing Asher interest which also cause muscles to twitch "what do you can't face you properly, you took me by surprise that's all"
Asher shrugged while Shawn looked at him amazed which made him nod his head "well pardon me I may behaved ungentlemanly, shall we take this seriously now?" his tone sounded like a spear aimed for his target his gaze still had no intensity in them
"Now you will see what I'm truly made of" Shawn rose his right brow looking at him his face turned at an angle "it will be an honor to experience you power" his tone, his mannerism all sent heat into Asher blood causing it to boil and his eyes narrowed "since I had had the first move in the previous round why don't you have the this round and begin
He smiled after switching turns and didn't even take a stance just had his hands behind him and that was the last straw cause this something to snap in Asher mind.
