Alex cursed as he saw Noctura's claw right above his head.
He had his stats suppressed to SS-rank and Noctura was someone who could fight someone who was a rank higher than herself, so it was not possible to dodge an attack from her, not when it was this close and not when he needed to remain unscathed.
'Temporal pause!' Alex exclaimed as the time paused for a second.
Although it was for a second, it was enough for Alex to get away.
But he didn't stop.
'I need to finish this quick,' Alex thought as he covered his fists with rock and jumped up in the air.
Alex had some cards left to use, but he didn't want to.
However, he didn't want to lose as well.
Alex knew that Noctura's ability was annoying, and it would be hard to find her once she disappeared again, so he decided to deal with her first.
