If she'd had a real blade of her own, she would have probably done just as well, so he's not concerned about that.
He's already guessed she's the kind who fights dirty, so he's on his guard already. Most of the immortals Connor fights are older, and a lot of them are stronger. He died at nineteen and it's put limits on his body, so he'll never be a muscle man, but he's got youth on his side too. Speed is his greatest strength, in any fight. That and the stubborn determination of a terrier.
Connor leaps back in a low crouch, moving just out of reach. He doesn't give her any praise, but he does smile approvingly.
