The glacier-blue icicle was one of the most straightforward creations that could be made with an Ice Affinity, but it was much faster and stronger than most attacks that came Michael's way.
Michael could only react in time because Spirit Eyes was active. Prognosis helped him predict the attack early enough to conjure an azure fireball and apply ten Enhancement Layers that focused on enhancing the fireball's heat.
He lobbed the fireball at the icicle, which instantaneously burst through the azure flames. Without Insert, the azure fireball would have been useless against the glacier-blue icicle. However, with Insert utilized, the searing hot flames invaded the icicle when they touched.
The glacier-blue icicle melted right before the impact.
Katharina Zenovia raised one eyebrow when she noticed that Michael managed to block her initial attack, but she didn't seem as shocked as the other powerhouses watching the confrontation.
Michael frowned deeply.
