As he had an hour of preparation before the match started Daedalus decided to meditate and correct his state of mind. So that's what he did, sitting on a bench meditating Daedalus waited to be told that the fight would be starting. Just as the hour finished Daedalus heard a knock at the door to the room he was seated in.
Standing up Daedalus prepared Icarus before walking out. The employee of the arena who had come to get him looked dumbfounded as Daedalus walked out. They couldn't help but think he looked similar to someone he saw in the past, but that was impossible.

A short walk later Daedalus was stood before a gate that when he was supposed to enter would be opened dramatically for him. And that's what it did, as the announcer on the other side of the door spoke his name, or rather the Swordsman, the gates creaked open in a dramatic fashion.
The crowd looked awed at the sight of the Swordsman. It was well known that he wouldn't show himself in public unless he wanted to, which was almost never. Ignoring the numerous gazes trained on him Daedalus walked into the arena and stood quietly waiting for the announcer to call in the king.
Luckily Daedalus didn't have to wait long as the announcer immediately called the king in as soon as the crowds quietened down slightly. This time the doors opened in a most indescribable manner. The king Kicked the door down because it was going to slowly.
The mighty kick caused the crowds in the stadium to become silent, until a huge appluase and cheering broke the silence. Daedalus had to admit the man had some ability when it came to bringing positive attention, even if by accident.
After the appluase died down the announcer announced the start of the fight. As soon as he heard the word start Daedalus dashed forward in a lunge. The king somehow managed to dodge the attack, causing Daedalus to be impressed.

After dodging Daedalus' attack the king immediately swung his sword at Daedalus. As the swing ended, to Daedalus suprise a formless energy came out of where the sword tip had previously passed. As the energy blade came at him Daedalus realised that the king was trying to make him jump to avoid the attack.
Daedalus of course didn't jump but rather fucked before launching himself even closer to the king. As he did this Daedalus did an over head slash. As the king tried to block it however Daedalus twisted his body slightly causing the blade to turn into a slash from the right.
The king was amazed at seeing this display of skill but moved back just enough to dodge the blade. Less than a second after the sword barely missed him, a faint blue energy formed and flew at near imperceptible speeds towards the king.
The king was shocked to see this but managed to dodge out of the way, at least mostly. As the energy blade passed by a gash formed on his right side.
