Steve didn't expect there would be two chunks of ice shooting from the right and left of his face. He's completely caught off guard.
Both sides of his face felt cold and ached at the same time.
Steve immediately stood up again and tried to send his Magic toward both sides of his face which had just been hit by that block of ice.
Steve glanced at Annie and sighed. He wouldn't have expected such an attack to come at him if Annie was still in a frenzy.
However, now Annie can fight with her common sense kept intact.
*SSSS...*
There was a sizzling sound as Steve's fire Magic melted the ice on both sides of his face. A few seconds later Steve was no longer feeling the cold and pain.
"You caught me off guard," said Steve in a rather loud voice.
Annie was standing some distance away from him and took a stance as if ready to fight.
Her gaze was serious towards Steve even after she managed to hit him hard.
"I guess I'm lucky," Annie replied.
