Some time prior when they just got to the plaza and the battlefield just began, Noel faced the assistant.
"I can't believe you're here to take back your power, that's wishful thinking."
"Why?" actually Noel knew, even if he took the assistant's lifeforce and copied his ability he'd only get to copy the illusion power of the assistant.
His true power. Since he stole Noel's power with someone else's power it wasn't the assistant's power, so Noel couldn't copy it.
"Because it's impossible."
"Ha," Noel smirked, "Even so I can't let an ass like you take it."
The assistant remained unfazed by the provocation.
"I'm just telling you," he shrugged his shoulders and formed a power orb.
Seeing Xavi's power in that guy's possession made Noel's blood boil. The good thing Noel quickly noticed was that the assistant's power and control over Noel's power was only half as good.
