The giant, glowing eel(?) got impatient-- going straight for the killing chomp.
Krysaos felt his heart pounding out of his chest.
Still, he was as calm as a man could be in his very specific circumstances.
On the voyage over to the Lake Goddess' sh*thole of an island, Lieutenant Tycon taught him a few new Skills.
Well... they weren't *Skills* so much as they were different applications of other things he already knew how to do.

--He said it as an afterthought.
He was already making the incantation gesture with his left hand and focusing mana in front of him.
Tycon called it... a 'perfect block'? It had something to do with summoning a half-ass ⌈Water Sphere⌋... but precise? Its shape had to cover the enemy's attack range... and it only had to last for an instant.
In theory, it was faster and took way less mana to execute.
--but he had to do it right.
