☀️ Arselia and Akonia

— So, get ready, it won't be easy. Hmm. And why do you think a female duo will attract more attention? It doesn't seem intuitive to me. I think it would be great to try it with three of us, and at the beginning of the performance, you would be in the shadows, and then, bam – you would suddenly join in the middle with a powerful entrance! Also, let me explain something else: if this performance is realized, it could become a kind of showcase of our squad's capabilities, showing that we are not just sitting around in headquarters, but are in top combat shape, ready to use our skills for the good of the country at any moment.

— Ha, of course, the fiery redhead won't miss a chance to show off the physique of the brave Carnelian warriors so everyone can see how handsome and capable we are. — Garrett chuckled. — A female duo, well, female grace and elegance are an added bonus to the spectacle. And I like the idea of a sudden attack from the shadows; it's definitely my style, a twist to keep the audience entertained.

And they began to "dance."

It was actually much more difficult than it seemed at first glance. Simply dodging attacks was not too difficult, not without visual assistance from the redhead, of course, but it was much more challenging to catch the same rhythm of attacks and maneuvers with her, and then maintain it, without losing concentration for a second. Therefore, to Garrett's surprise, the difficulty of the performance turned out to be not only a test of physical abilities but also a mental challenge – while in constant motion, one must also pay the utmost attention to tracking the position of the body and the reactions of one's opponent in order to correctly coordinate one's own movements in accordance with the intended idea; they must be precise to a geometric degree. And the nimble and attentive Aster didn't have any problems with this; with each repetition, he gracefully avoided Erephir in the air.

After spending some time in this strange, dizzying dance with intricate jumps and pirouettes, and finally feeling the need for a break, Garrett decided to end this with a flourish. Before the last lunge of his opponent, instead of dodging, he crouched down slightly, bracing himself for the impact, and, feeling the contact, despite his labored breathing, he performed a sharp, ground-hugging roll to the side, ending with an impressive jump back to his feet.
"That's what I learned the roll for, hehe."
Catching his breath, Garrett casually brushed a bead of sweat that was trying to get into his eyes from his forehead and smiled.
— Whew... Well, something like that. It seems pretty good for a start, don't you think? I must admit, if I had known in advance what kind of workout you had in store for me today, I would have thought twice about whether to spend more time reading books or go to the gym to improve my stamina, ha-ha!
