Ian was right, Roman thought; it was time to stop playing around and get serious. But before he could charge at Ian again—as he undeniably had the advantage in combat experience, both in techniques and weapon handling—golden blades suddenly appeared all around him.
They emerged unexpectedly, and before Roman could feel surrounded by them, as they were truly everywhere, the golden blades attacked his force field simultaneously.
When Roman realized that his force field was losing power, he immediately recharged it with new black particles. As more golden blades formed around his shield right after the first attack, Roman sheathed his scimitars in their scabbard, which were always on his back during a battle, and placed his hands on his force field.
