His spear falls down too far on his right, leaving everything exposed. Eden grabs behind its tip and shoves it backward towards Lucky. He stumbles back towards the boundary, wrapped in white tape in the shape of a hexagon. He already feels like a failure in this fight. How can he recover from taking the first shot, out of eagerness and arrogance, just to have it stray wide and be turned back upon him.
Eden Le Roux's sword spins upward, cutting just above his brow. He falls even closer to the makeshift ring's boundary, grabbing at his head right away. Lucky had been under the impression that headshots were strictly forbidden in combat training and tournaments like these. They aren't designed to end in death, after all. The cut stings upon impact, leaving his eyes heavily shut and his teeth pressing up against his gums to relieve some of the pain.
"The fuck is that? You could have slashed my brain in two, idiot!" Lucky's angry that the referees looking on to the fight are silent. Perhaps too he's jealous that despite the objective of winning at all costs, he can't muster up the courage to take the same sort of shot. Something inside him resists the urge to be cruel and try to take Eden Le Roux's life. Of course, the consequence of getting in a shit ton of trouble looms, but something else draws a lingering stain of hesitancy across his face. It pulls him back to his senses as he takes another swing well below Eden's neck.
Being a career is a violent thing; Lucky holds the life of another person in his hands. But he can't be the executioner if the punishment is taking a life. His subconscious warns him that just because his destiny was rerouted by the eager hands of thieves, it does not mean he has to act the same.lucky attacks eden with his spear
