A terrifying roar tore through the cavern, and then, in a blinding blur of speed, Celeste shot forward, lunging directly at Soo-min with her hand extended aiming to deliver a blow.
Soo-min instantly braced herself, stepping back and raising her own hand to meet the attack. A violent shockwave tore through the cavern as the two blows collided, and the impact completely pulverized Celeste's striking arm.
But Celeste didn't slow. She immediately swung her other hand to deliver a blow to Soo-min's head, but the opponent was faster. Soo-min blocked the blow with her other hand, which held her short sword, and immediately followed with a lightning-quick thrust into Celeste's chest. She yanked the blade out and stabbed repeatedly, thrusting and withdrawing the short sword with blinding speed.
Finally, Soo-min delivered a fierce kick to Celeste's massive body, driving the figure backward to crash hard against the cavern wall once more.
