Kaon stood up. “Why did you let me get up?” he asked
“You allowed me to rest earlier, just repaying the favor,” Soumei replied.
“Thank you but you may regret your generosity, I have not yet begun to fight.” Soumei redrew his sword and lunged at Kaon stepped back and felt the ground beneath his foot crumble a little bit. He looked down and saw a seemingly endless cliff. He looked back at Soumei who had started to swing his sword and smacked Kaon’s face with its hilt. Knocking him off the edge. Soimei looked over the edge but saw nothing.
‘I am sorry, I did not wish for you to die.” He said. And walked toward the temple of the oracle
“WAIT!” cried Kaon. Soumei whirled around “Its not over yet.”
“Will you ever give up?” Soumei asked. Kaon had climbed up a little and was now hanging off the side of the plateau.
“Only when I am dead.” He replied
“Then so be it.” Soumei walked over to the edge of the cliff and extended his hand. “I would rather not win this way.”
“I do not need your help.” Kaon said but his hands were slipping. Suddenly the rock he was holding onto broke and Kaon fell.
“So this is how it is going to end.” Kaon thought as he plummeted toward the ground. Suddenly he saw a large bird. “Please help me,” Kaon said to the bird. It flew over and Kaon landed on its back. “We're going up.” He told the bird and It started to climb. They were soon at the plateau; Soumei had started to climb to toward the summit.
“Stop right there!” Kaon said. Soumei turned around. “Like I said its not over yet.”
“Did you use the bird?” Soumei asked. “How did… what are you."
“I am a Beast master.” Kaon replied
