Reaching Him

Steve really thought that Annie's Magic energy had run out.

Because of that, he went easy on her. Steve even let Annie land a punch on him earlier.

But it turned out that that had been Annie's goal since earlier.

She showed signs that she was no longer able to use Magic properly after all of her Magic energy was used up.

Just to catch Steve off guard. Annie knew that Steve would let his guard down when he thought he had won the battle.

Because Steve enjoyed toying with his weak opponents.

And let his opponent suffer a slow and painful defeat.

Annie has experienced this kind of treatment from Steve several times.

Even though Steve tries to be friendly in his everyday life, once they fight Steve shows his true side.

'Shit!'

Steve knew that he was in a cornered situation right now.

Annie managed to get close to him until he was right in front of his eyes like this.

However, Steve is not easily panicked.
