Round 3

Zaroth's opponent held a wooden staff with a blue gem in her hand, so most likely, she was going to attack using some kind of ranged magic attacks.

If it were the old him, he would have rushed in, thinking it was the best strategy to reach her as soon as possible.

But now, after his numerous duels with his friends, he knew that people whose class revolves around ranged attacks know they are weak up close and, as such, train to fight with their fists proficiently.

Zaroth still shuddered a little when he remembered how much force was behind Lily's fist.

He, of course, wasn't planning to waste time, though, as he extended his arm and let out a fireball.

Interestingly enough, the woman's staff shone, and she didn't move a muscle.

The next moment, his fireball was nowhere to be seen.

"What?" Zaroth muttered in disbelief. How did his attack disappear? Did the woman possess some way to nullify magical attacks?
