An Extra’s POV

Rey didn't know this, but Anukus had just done something that he wasn't aware of.

[Sever] mixed with [Homing] made for a sure-hit attack that obliterated anything in its path.

Anukus had used this attack on Rey, hoping for his head to get sliced off.

'That's your punishment for interrupting my match!' Anukus had thought.

He hated strangers coming out of nowhere and just disturbing his moment of enjoyment.

If they wanted a fight with him, they could just wait their turn!

'DIE!' He had thought silently as he sent the attack.

However…

'E-eh…?'

… The attack did not land.

Normally, this would be the time when his opponent's head would go rolling to the ground, but there was no such thing this time around.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

In fact, the target didn't even seem to notice what had just happened.

'M-maybe my aim was off…' Anukus thought, forgetting that he had the [Homing] feature activated.

There was no way he could have missed, even if he wanted to!

'Let's try again!'

Anukus did it again and again, but every single time he did so, there was no effect.

In the end he had to try out his attack on the man beside him.

However, the moment he did so, a bright golden barrier covered him, causing the attack not to land.

'What? A defensive barrier?!'
