Euri dodged Arad's swing by a hairbreadth, almost losing an eye. He then twisted his torso and threw his arm forward, thrusting the halberd forward like a spear.
Arad smacked the halberd aside with his three-section staff and closed the distance. Before Euri could move away, Arad smacked him in the chest, the shoulder, and the thighs in rapid succession enough to drop him down.
Euri was fighting for his life, but Arad was on auto-pilot, only thinking about the fight enough to keep Euri alive. The goal of this fight was to buy him time in the arena, and now he has to think of a way to deal with the array that boosts Gale's reaction speed.
Out of the three arrays, this one would've given Gale the biggest edge. Since Tyal far outclassed him in reaction speed, or so Arad hoped. Due to the huge difference in level between Gale and Tyal, Arad is sure that the fight could end up one-sided in Tyal's favor.
