The sound of metal clashing echoed through the quiet field.
A-yeon stepped back, breathing unevenly, her grip tightening around the dagger in her hand.
"Again,"
Yu-jin said coldly.
"I just did—!"
"Again."
She flinched but rushed forward anyway.
Their blades met.
Sparks flew.
A-yeon's movements were fast… but not enough.
Yu-jin knocked her weapon aside in one clean motion.
She stumbled but stopped herself from falling.
"…You hesitated," he said.
"I saw something…"
A-yeon whispered, gripping her head slightly.
Gun-woo, watching from the side, narrowed his eyes.
"…A vision again?"
A-yeon nodded slowly.
"It was… this place… but different…"
Silence fell.
Yu-jin lowered his sword slightly, his gaze sharp.
"…Then don't trust it."
A-yeon looked up.
"If you rely on something incomplete… it will get you killed."
Gun-woo stepped forward, voice gentler.
"Don't force yourself. Your body hasn't caught up to what your mind is seeing yet."
A-yeon exhaled shakily.
"…I have to get stronger."
Yu-jin turned away.
"…Then stop doubting your next step."
Gun-woo smiled faintly.
"Looks like someone's being harsh again."
A-yeon looked between them… then tightened her grip on her dagger.
"…Again."
This time she moved first.
