*Aooo!*
The wolf howled in pain while glaring at Noel, never expecting that a human could do something like this. It endured the pain and charged at him again, planning to kill him this time.
When the wolf was about to pounce on him, Noel's thought changed.
'Woah, this wolf is quick.'
Although the wolf's speed was still within Noel's imagination, he acted like he was surprised to evoke the emotion for the defense. When a person was surprised, they either stood still or used their reflex to act.
Normal people would surely be standing still, but Noel had a trained body and reflex, so this surprise was just a means for him to use his reflex.
And that reflex allowed Noel to strike the wolf's right foot from below, knocking it up.
*Aoo?!*
The wolf was dumbfounded because that strike somehow blocked his paw. Although the claws managed to withstand the sharpness of the blade, they couldn't stop the force from Noel's sword.
