[ To her, offering a compliment amidst a fight was not normal or typical and yet she only wished to impart her thoughts. While he hadn't landed a hit, the speed and force behind these movements were of someone who knew what they were doing and that deserved some credit.
Ei was not the Shogun here. The Shogun would have gone for more direct, fatal hits without so much as blinking. It was more efficient to end a battle quickly in her eyes. She can't even say she entirely understands his frustration amidst what she supposed was some form of compliment, flickering blue reflected in her eyes. The way his movements were now becoming a bit more sloppy were quite telling but far it be from her to mention it, what with his mind surely poisoned by the curse that plagued him.
How Reckless..
No. She would not kill him, but this action he'd taken was too careless. It took a scant few seconds to gauge where that sword would hit, and Ei then shifted over a touch while thrusting her spear upwards. The momentum he'd take would have her spear's blade skewering straight into his torso, but done in a way to avoid hitting anything fatal. In the seconds that followed, she brought him down to the ground as his weight was too much to be kept in the air.
Ei kept her spear where it was for a second, a breeze floating by as she gazed down at him. Wanting to see if this was what finally caused him to remain still. ]
