System vs Rebirth

The enemy planned to stop him from using all his abilities, so Noel placed his hand on the ground to confuse him.

"!!!" The guy became wary of this ability, wondering if he channeled either element inside.

However, the fluctuation of Spiritual Energy was weak, making him think there was no way an attack that small would harm him.

So, he chased after Noel while forming a shield with his second blade just in case.

As he expected, Noel leaped back to get away from him.

He lowered his shield to block everything from below while chasing after Noel.

The Spiritual Energy fluctuated violently the moment he stepped near the ground Noel put his hand on earlier. However, this amount of Spiritual Energy wasn't enough to harm him, so he focused on going after Noel.

This was his mistake because what Noel left behind was the Softening Rune.

As soon as he stepped on the ground, the soil became so soft that it felt like it absorbed his foot.

"!!!" The guy lost his balance immediately. Although he managed to use his other foot to support him, his left leg was already on its knee.

Before Noel attacked him, he actually used his Ice Control and froze the ground. The ice reached his opponent's knee and made it stick. This way, the enemy wouldn't be able to get into his stance.

Noel took this opportunity to jump back to strike the guy's head. He wanted to hit him from the back, but the guy would have already broken free. So, he had no choice but to attack head-on.
