[what quick reflexes and impressive accuracy. a lesser adversary would be taken off guard by movements that quick. scratch that, a lesser adversary would've lost by now. little doubt exists that sousei has felled many such opponents in the past.
good thing kratos doesn't count as a lesser adversary. his eyes follow those movements and he reacts accordingly, taking a backstep to avoid the well aimed attack while also pulling the sword backward as he does. his body crouches a teeny bit upon landing so to push himself forward and add even more force to the uppercut thrust now coming sousei's way.
with each attack, kratos adds a little more strength and a little more speed. he really wants to test the other man's abilities and see how well he keeps up. chances are going full out won't happen (it's something kratos won't allow for outside of actual battle and definitely not against what he assumes to be a human), but sousei's already pushing him further than most.]
