Sometimes Glaukos didn’t like the fact that his semblance allowed him to see everything around him. Sure, it let him know where he was going to be sliced by Athena, but it was akin to getting a shot and just waiting for the pain to start. This was going to hurt. A lot.

His opponent had jumped over him, getting behind him, even as Glaukos snapped his wrist, changing Foniás Dexiá into its melee form, he knew he would be able to pivot fast enough to block her punches. He really wasn’t going to even be able to get the half second more time it took for her to swing the bladed part of it, as it had retracted, so he had no way to get Aspída Aristerá in between the two.

While, unlike some, Glaukos wore actual armour I still don’t know why people think it’s a good idea to fight in skirts and non-armoured clothing…it just gets in the way he idly pondered this as the blows started to rain on his armoured back. Sure, he had armour and sure he had a generous amount of aura seeing as he had not taken a hit. But Athena was without a doubt, a brawler. It still put his aura level down to about 70% by the time he was able to sweep his manica encased arm at Athena. 25% meant he would lose the match.

Pivoting to his right, as that was the closest side Athena was at, he continued to sweep right, with his right arm. Foniás Dexiá having changed into its melee form once more, extended his backward sweep's length. Flowing into the turn, Glaukos was able to use the momentum of the sweep to pivot himself towards Athena, allowing him to face her and bring up his hoplon for any more defensive actions against her onslaught.
