[Though even that sounds...strange to his ears. Focus on what? His need to get stronger?
For a moment it might seem like he's considering her words more, but then there's that weird feeling of need to fight, an itch to get rid of the woman standing in his way and wasting his time to find someone else. Normally he would just call it and leave, but the bloodlust that had slightly cooled (ironically from the excitement of the fight) flares up again.
Rather than just fight now he wants to just kill, and he hasn't fully realized that that has been his true motivation.]
Guess I should have finished you off earlier.
[That's her only "warning" before he darts forward, his killing intent stronger than before.]
