When the enemy charged again, Luke pointed his sword to the face of the homunculus and then used a Spark Ball. He only did it at the last moment, so the enemy didn't have the chance to react, and the spell paralyzed them. Thanks to that, Luke's sword touched the head of the monster, but he still felt a lot of resistance, and he only drained a small amount of mana. Actually, he drained the maximum that his sword could drain in a single strike, but Luke thought that it would be more effective since the creature resembled his mana clones quite a bit…
Before Luke could pull back his sword and then attack again, the homunculus swung its sword horizontally to separate Luke's upper and lower half. Luke used a shadow clone that emerged from his shadow to stop the attack, but in the next moment, the homunculus did the same thing when he was moving away, but he used the shadow to attack.
