[He should have seen it coming, but he anticipated it too late. He's taken by surprise instead when Rokurou suddenly comes down on him with a sudden leap in strength. Though he manages to block his swords with his own, he skids backwards from the force, trying to remain standing. He is fighting a daemon, they may just be sparring, but he's still dealing with someone not quite all human. It's...quite a rush to be fighting a challenging foe. We should even the odds, hm~?]
Stay out of this! [He turns his blade slightly, just enough to direct the remaining force behind Rokurou's attack to continue to the side instead. If Rokurou comes in close enough, he'll try to kick him away. He doesn't need brute strength, he just needs to fight smarter. I could do even more things with him.]
