Before they realized what was going on, Jacob's spirit delivered a punch that landed on Mitsutaka's black shadow.
"Fool, do you think you can control me with your measly skills?" Jacob's soul grabbed Mitsutaka's shadowy figure and punched it repeatedly.
The glow emanating from Jacob's spirit was so intense that Mitsutaka and Kazuki had to shield their eyes. One could tell how powerful it was just from that glow alone.
"H-He's too strong," Mitsutaka gasped in shock and coughed out a mouthful of black blood. It felt like his spirit was being ripped into shreds, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Boom!
Jacob's spirit delivered another powerful blow, launching the menacing black shadow away. Mitsutaka tamped down the pain as he opened his mouth wide, consuming the shadow to reclaim it into his being. Fear penetrated his gaze as he locked eyes with Jacob.
