Leonard retreated as he looked behind him.
When he noticed that two bronze-tier mages had turned their heads and started to cast spells at Watson, he cursed silently in his heart. 'Idiot.'
He had struck Watson on the orders of President Audrey. He started fleeing without even looking after he had attacked. That was due to the fear he felt in his heart. He had a strong feeling that if he attacked Watson at that time, he would be fatally wounded.
The truth was not dissimilar to what he had anticipated.
The silver-tier spell he had cast, a chain of exploding fireballs, landed on Watson's body. It was like a stone sinking into the sea—it was absorbed quickly.
The spells cast by the two bronze-tier mages were also absorbed. Watson stood in the sky as he looked at them. He did not counterattack, as if he lacked the strength to do so.
