The Abyss vs. The Azure (2)

Whoosh!

With [Flash of the Azure Dragon] active, it went without saying that Noel had a difficult time keeping track of Valyr, even with the disparity that existed between their strength.

However, the old man was still able to track the young man down, adorning a faint smile after realizing Valyr was just heading straight at him.

"[Abyssal Serpent Style]…"

"[Bastion of the Boundless Abyss]!"

Getting the feeling that the young man's attacks would begin to deviate from merely utilizing spearmanship, Noel immediately activated one of his stronger defensive skills, casting a barrier around himself as he reminded himself not to use any of his stat-boosting skills against Valyr.

'After all, I'm just assessing how strong Valyr is,' thought the old man to himself. 'There's no reason to turn this into a fight to the death.'
