When the smoke clears, Peppers realised that Jin was protected by a magical shield barrier by Milk. She was instantly summoned by the System as an emergency response when it noticed there was a build up of magical energy within Peppers. Predicting that there was a high chance to hit Jin, the System reacted preemptively to block the attack.
The only people left stunned were the rest of the monsters in the meeting room.
"Why! Why can you not let me hit him!" Peppers pouted, and the System stated that this is a very critical period for Jin.
"There are times for fun, games and explosions. Unfortunately, Bellator Peppers, now it is not the moment. User has too many pressing issues to do for you to land him in the hospital for even an hour." The System concluded, and Milk went forward to hug Peppers' head.
