System vs Rebirth

'How?'

While Noel asked that question, the guy clicked his tongue before smiling. "I guess even a baby, it's still a lion. Even if you lower your guard, you still put some distance…"

The guy was implying that Noel had the chance to block it right in front of his neck as if he was trying to make no waste movement. But Noel was more careful than he originally thought because he blocked it a bit far away from any vital area as if calculating the opponent's strength.

However, Noel didn't understand what he was talking about. He was still trying to figure out the enemy's strength.

It seemed the enemy didn't intend to wait for him as he charged forward with his blade, making the same swing as the previous one.

Noel remembered what happened in the previous slash and hurriedly used his Everchanging Sword Style to strike it. He used Fear to improve his speed for a split second, hitting the sword upward.

The guy smirked as if he didn't care about this sudden change of trajectory. He used the same ability to put a small wound on Noel's face.

Unfortunately, the distance between his neck and the sword was bigger than earlier. This time, Noel could finally see what was going on and ducked down.

His hair was cut a bit and Noel was forced to leap back.

Still, that clash gave him a lot of information. He recalled what happened earlier.

At the last second, the enemy's blade seemed to be releasing Spiritual Energy that formed another blade like an extension. It turned out the enemy could manipulate his Spiritual Energy freely as a weapon.
