On the next attempt she side stepped one of his wild swings and smashed him in the back of the head with her sword a second later, causing a headache ...to sprout up out of nowhere. Every subsequent time after that was no different from the first two and by the time they stopped for a short break he was drenched in sweat and his body ached in various places. 'This isn't going to work,' he groaned and fell to the ground, letting the grass cool him down. 'The duel is tomorrow night and I can barely. Jack's houseis on the main road as well so I'm assuming that he just happened to bewalking past when he saw it." I explained."Seems logical," said Sarah. "Are you not worried that he might trysomething again?" Not really," I said. "You should have seen him. He looked terrible, likehe hadn't washed or eaten in days. He was like a shell of his formerself. Plus, he ran like the wind as soon as he heard Jack's voice." Icarried on "Also, he doesn't have that demon in him giving him. I have no intention of fighting fair. Starting tomorrow, all the stops are pulled, Judy. I'm going to take war to the God-King's men like they've never seen or imagined war." I still don't see how that's going to help. It's a long way to where the bastard lives. He's not going to come and meet us." No, that's true. I am, though, allied with High King Kalvan, who if he doesn't expect to end the war this year, he expects to wrap it up pretty quickly. He has a wife at risk, and children back. Could he become a real-life Superman and try to fight crime – is that what his destiny was eventually to become?He quickly dispelled the thought, not long after forming it, and pulled into the parking garage.As he walked into the building he saw Tracy waiting for the elevator."Hey! Where were you yesterday' she asked as he walked up."I was sick." I missed you yesterday." I know, I'm sorry," he told her. "Let's have lunch today. I want to thank you for the other day."The elevator opened inviting.
