To gamble..or to not gamble.
This time...the unknown voice was wrong.
Athen's rationality had finally caught up and returned to him.
Remaining in the same exact spot as he was before activating his time-stopping ability, Athen examined the frozen teacher and his mana sword.
The sword was frozen in motion...and so easy to grab.
Couldn't he just grasp the sword at the exact time that his ability ended?
Shaking his head, Athen quickly dismissed the idea.
His purple mana had barely managed to make a hole in the professor's first layer of mana defense.
And barely any of his mana was concentrated there, as he had the defense all over his massive body.
However, there was an immense amount of mana concentrated in the professor's light blue sword.
His purple fist would easily fall under the pressure of the professor's mana sword, and his hand would probably be sliced off.
