Looking at Elder Jane's flaming body, Liam could only shake his head.
'Doesn't she feel shame? She has a Rank 4 core...'
Nevertheless, Liam wasn't afraid.
Not since he was one-fourth Zenith.
Liam could tell the Elder was holding back with her flames.
…Mostly.
Otherwise, a single spell with the power of a Rank 4 core behind it could maim Liam for an annoying amount of time.
But not permanently.
…Probably.
Slowly, Liam cocked his right fist and pivoted his body sideways, sliding his foot across the ground.
Then, he wrapped his hand with Shadow.
Right after, he activated both Cartilage Brace and Obsidian Skin, then enhanced his fist with 'Ora'.
A moment later, Liam used Vanishing Steps and blurred, breaking the stone beneath his feet.
Whoosh!
BOOM!
The punch landed square against the Elder's stomach.
