[Konan smiles slightly. There's something to be said for just letting oneself attack freely. Mercury is a reasonably skilled combatant, she notes, although she seems to be strategically inclined as Konan is.
This is a good opportunity for Konan to work on her hand to hand combat skills. It's not at all her forte, but she is still a ninja and she isn't entirely unskilled. She focuses on efficient strikes - hits that are designed to do as much damage as possible with as minimal force as needed. Precision has always been a strength, and though she usually employs it in distance attacks, she is quite familiar with vital points. Her simulated foes are struck in places like the kidneys, the spine, and the throat when they get up close.]
