'W-What the fuck is that?'

Melia wondered with a confused look on her face. Nux, however, didn't give her time to think about all that, he just stepped forward, and as he did, another platform popped out of the Piller, supporting him.

Melia simply jumped 10 meters away from him.

In the air, she had the advantage. Nux was using that strange ability that no she has never heard of or seen before to fight her, however, in the end, he needed to create a platform for him to be stabilized, while she does not.

Melia glanced at the ground,

'10 more seconds.'

Thinking about that, she jumped back again.

She wasn't giving away her advantage in this battle, time was on her side.

Suddenly, Nux jumped at her.

Melia frowned, unable to understand what he was trying to do, however, soon, she noticed another similar pillar rising from the ground, coming to support Nux.

A small smile appeared on her face as she jumped back again.

Nux was forced to step on the pillar he created and again, he failed to get close to Melia.

Melia, on the other hand, understood how Nux's ability worked.

That pillar, Nux could create it out of nothing, and even the creation speed was way too fast compared to any spells, it is almost as if it is instantaneous, however, it had one flaw.

The Pillar Nux creates, it needs to either be connected to the ground, or it needs to be connected to a pillar made from the same material. Nux couldn't create it out of thin air.

Thinking about that, Melia smiled and then, she flew above.

She would raise the height Nux would need to create the pillar to support himself, spending more Mana, increasing the risk, and making it more complicated for him to extend his pillars.

This single move placed 3 binds on Nux.

Nux lifted his head as he glanced at Melia flying above him, then, he smiled wryly.

"A Great Sage running away from a mere Emperor, are you sure you want your father to see this cowardly fight?"

"Hmm? Are we doing the thing where you try to talk to your opponent, trying to trigger them so that they make a mistake and we use it to our advantage? You need to do something like that, Nux?"

Melia questioned.
