Jane smirked.
She waved her hand, a wall of condensed water gushed forth as a shield.
Jacob's attack pierced through the wall as though it was paper, but just then, Jane pivoted her foot and dodged.
As soon as Jacob flew past, a crackling water-whip lashed across his jaw, cracking more than a few teeth and causing his eardrums to pop.
Inertia flung the noble towards the arena borders, which he spat out a mouthful of blood, cursing with any word he can find.
Jane didn't dare let the noble rest, shooting at him with lithe but swift steps.
Before she could release a barrage of wild lashes, Jacob's spear whizzed through the air – glowing brighter by the second – grazing her cheek as she attempted to dodge.
'Shi—'
Boom!
A deafening explosion bellowed through the arena, smashing against the wall of force and creating a cloud of smog that dulled all sight.
