Weakness Behind Deflecting

Like a kindling ignited by fire, a brilliant light engulfed the tip of Joseph's Rapier.

His body moved subconsciously and according to his instincts as he shoved the Rapier, straight into Krid's body.

But...

"Naive!"

Kacha!

... before the weapon could even reach Krid, the attack suddenly crumbled into pieces as a sound similar to that of glasses breaking rang out.

Joseph's eyes widened in shock when he heard the familiar sound.

Staring at Krid, he mumbled...

"Senior... just what did you do?"

Krid stopped what he was doing, and he frowned as he replied: "What are you saying, didn't I do something like this when we fought earlier?"

Memories flashed in Joseph's mind, and after connecting Krid's use of parry earlier that caused his defeat. Joseph finally understood that Krid really had the ability of deflecting an attack, just like what he could do and what the Grand Duelist could do.

"Hahaha..." Joseph chuckled.
