Dimensional Descent

Thaela split into six clones, her body shifting and avoiding the arrow.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Leonel's spear shot forward again and again, each attached with a word or phrase. His mind quickly analyzed the strikes of Thaela, saw through the smallest of flaws, and used his comprehension to choose the best combination to deflect it away.

But the strength gap was far too great, especially now that he was facing six clones all at once. Thaela seemed to want to end this all as quickly as possible.

Leonel released another arrow, but his pupils constricted when Thaela's real body instantly shifted with one of her clones, avoiding his attack and only suffering the blow with a fake.

The combination of illusion and space was too useful. When their battle first began, Thaela had called over her other clones from dozens of kilometers away and they instantly returned to her. Now, she was using this same ability as an evasion technique. Leonel had simply never seen such high level applications of Force.

At the same time as Leonel was in awe, Thaela was steeped in derision and disdain.

'To have such a powerful Force and only be capable of using it to attack… he really does come from a backwater family I've never heard of. Such a high level Force and he doesn't even know how to use it properly. Pathetic.'

Thaela's whip became faster as a fourth Star manifested to her back. She pressed harder and harder, feeling that time was running out.

At first, she wanted to be more cautious, and she still was, but she also knew that there was a point where the effort wasn't worth the return. If it wasn't for these weird domains Leonel kept pulling out, she would have defeated him in a few exchanges.
