Damon would have liked to explore the new system mechanic, but there was no time. He wanted to activate any new powers he had gained, but unlike skills, this wasn't something that directly affected his body—it was a change to the system panel as a whole. That meant whatever benefits it provided wouldn't be immediately useful in battle.
He pushed the thought aside, raising his hand and unleashing several magic bullets toward the goblin mage.
The goblin reacted swiftly, waving its staff to conjure a translucent barrier.
Damon clicked his tongue in frustration. "Smart," he muttered. Magic bullets weren't effective against barriers.
As if it wasn't troublesome enough that this thing was a redcap, it just had to be a magic caster on top of that.
Flames rose behind the goblin mage, the glow reflecting in its frantic eyes as it scanned the battlefield, realizing its allies were already dead.
