Pursuit (Part 1)

Nicholas' voice rang in Saleen's mind. He opened his mouth and said, "Time, reverse…"

Saleen could already feel the tip of the metal tail piercing through his skin, but all of a sudden, it withdrew and the entire tail retreat at least 10 yards away from Saleen.

Imposa was taken aback by what he had just seen. Saleen had just used a divine spell!

A mage using a divine spell was even more unacceptable than a Holy Master using elemental spells. The Holy See had attempted to bribe mages to become Holy Masters, but their magic chords degenerated, and eventually, they were not even able to cast spells higher than grade-0. Even magic apprentices were better off than them.
