Jack braced himself as Alogra's fist closed in, anticipating a bone-crushing impact. But instead of a world-shaking collision, he felt… nothing. Blinking in surprise, Jack found himself standing, unscathed.
'Did he hold back?' he wondered, steadying his breath. He wasn't sure if Alogra's mercy was calculated or if he'd just been lucky. One thing was certain, though—Jack hadn't thought before he acted. When Alogra had started this fight out of nowhere, claiming it was 'for a lesson,' it had struck a nerve. Jack loathed being thrown into conflicts without reason, but here he was.
In a flash of anger, he'd summoned his strongest attack. He watched with satisfaction as black flames coiled around Alogra, engulfing him. 'Let's see him escape this,' he thought, his gaze hard as the dark fire consumed his opponent.
