Chapter 23: Close Contact (2)

”You love daggers, don't you?”

He is, as if, teasingshort warainst my bare neck And his closeness, this inti? I almost shi+ver when he placed his lips a few inches above my ear

daether, damn it!

My heartbeats got even harder and faster when he shi+fted and moved closer to me I was almost breathless when his toned chest made contact with my back I was confined between hiainst hiid expression I was hardly even breathing

Why did I letposition?

Gin extended one of his arms to the table so I was lue et a breather away from him But on this battle, even a bit of space would ame; and I don't intend to lose

I knohat's on histoentertainment

I will never give him the satisfaction Not even one bit

I didn't notice I had rabbed one of the weapons on the table and slightly shi+fted away froh of relief As?

”These are also called thrusting knives”

I stepped a little away from him before the sa Another mischievous smile As if, he perfectly knew the impact he had on me I stared back with my blank expression

”Al knives Dagger, dirks, cat claws, ripper Their aim is to be able to thrust on the flesh within close combat No air, wind, or distance to make up for the momentum, just plain physical force”

”I got it”

Slowly, a sain

”Let's see then”

He tossedI had earlier was yet to subside

Gin went to the center of the training room I noticed that he had already a weapon on his hand It was a dagger with a double-edge blade

”Once a drop of blood escapes, you will lose the game”

I stared at the corners ofto see the wound of my face earlier The blood was already dry It didn't obviously count So it h to make the blood ooze out from him Easy

”Let's restrict it on the face”

I froze ”What?”

”On the face,” he said as if it was just playing hide-and-seek ”We can only hit on the face”

I alh what he had done to uess we're even now; both had a score I wounded him the first time we faced each other He wounded me earlier today We're now backed to square one

I stared back at hiave my sweetest smile ”Game on”
