What Was He Thinking?

BAM!!

The ground rumbled as Rui's Flowing Canon struck Nel's weighted haymaker.

BAM

A combination of Blink and Phantom Step allowed Rui to barely get in a speedy jab.

The two of the unleashed avalanches of attacks. Rui abused almost all of his techniques to their very limit to keep up with Nel.

The ferocity escalated!

They lashed out at each other.

Nel's senses and senses were so sharp that combos of Blink and Phantom Step that would normally be game-enders against almost anybody were reduced to defense bypassers

But Nel was able to handle even that to a certain extent. Blink was only partially effective because he was capable of fighting via his other senses alone, however not as well, and his mind still relied on vision the most.

Phantom Step allowed Rui to confuse him even further, allowing Rui to land in jabs.
