"You know what I mean! Escape... how did you escape?" The man in the shadows respondedv impatiently.
It made no literal sense. Noir's abilities had just been analyzed. He shouldn't have been able to nullify that Magic, and yet—!!!
"It's simple, actually. You underestimated my abilities," Noir answered smoothly, drawing closer to the shadowy figure.
"That's impossible. I made sure to gauge you accordingly. I left no margin for error!"
"Exactly. While it's true you analyzed and discovered the limits of my abilities, you never considered it within the realm of possibility that the 'Noir' you saw might not be all the Noir there is."
The man in the shadows was quiet. He was probably just confused by what he heard.
"Simply put... I am much more than I was a few minutes ago when I was facing you."
"How did you, or rather, when did you realize it was a dream?" The malefactor asked, trying his best to maintain his strong, charismatic personality.
