System vs Rebirth

*Cry!*

The bird was in pain as the sword strike hit him again. Although it left a smaller wound due to some of the sword energy depleted from Noel's lack of control, it was still quite big.

Noel immediately used his Phoenix Wings to chase after him.

'I can use some utility abilities like Split Step or Phoenix Wings at the same time as an attack ability. But I still don't have enough control to use two extremely powerful abilities since they require greater control and a bigger amount of Spiritual Energy.'

Noel clicked his tongue. He truly lacked a lot of things despite getting stronger constantly. No, he felt that he could see more problems when he became stronger.

This frustrated him a lot but also made him feel grateful since it taught him how to get stronger.

'Well, I should focus on the battle first.' Noel muttered inwardly before the bird was angry again.

The fire bird demon rose into the sky and spread its wings as if it was trying to absorb the heat from the sun.

Noel narrowed his eyes, feeling the fluctuation of Spiritual Energy getting stronger.

"This is…" Noel gasped, seeing the flame on his wings flare up.

When the bird flapped its wings, it sent out a gale again. But this time, the gale contained some red aura as if it was the blazing fire that was carried by the wind.

Noel hurriedly used his Ice Vortex to disperse the attack.

As soon as the cold and heat collided, the heat flared up and caused an explosion, dispersing the Ice Vortex instead.
