An Extra’s POV

Noah's three Exclusive Skills didn't seem so special at first glance.

[Phase], [Shadow Magic], and [Projection].

With the exception of some moves that could be done with [Shadow Magic], they were mostly useful for defense and evasion.

However, after honing his abilities and properly practicing with these Skills, Noah could properly use them for offensive moves.

When he started his fight with Britta, he used his [Shadow Magic] to defend himself, while using [Phase] and a bit of propulsion to slip through the ground and appear behind her.

Then, he used his voice to call her attention to him. This, along with the effects of her [Greater Full Sense], allowed her to locate his position, even though she never saw him leave his black cocoon.

Even if she suspended disbelief for that moment, due to the directive of her senses, Britta encountered another dilemma when there was no visual representation of what she was sensing.

This was thanks to [Projection]. It was only a visual illusion, but it worked wonders to confuse Britta's senses for a moment.

—Enough for him to attack her and send her flying.

Of course, the only reason he could land a hit on her despite her senses—even with her confusion—was due to his impressive Stats.

If he was much slower than her, she would have reacted and evaded his blow.

However, since they seemed to be pretty much on the same level of power and speed, he was able to dominate her by imposing a delayed reaction on her end.

But, that wasn't all!

Taking advantage of his visual illusions, he created a bright and noticeable light show that easily caught her attention and distracted her—even if only for a few moments—from his brewing attack below her.

Thanks to this, he was able to hit her a second time.

It was very easy to confuse a person by providing different information to their respective senses.

Even such a person would eventually recover, damage could already be done.

That was Noah's special advantage—his true power!
