Mist Calf's heart was pounding away madly inside his chest.

'Why is this?'

It hurriedly shifted its remaining eye to chase after the female Paladin's figure.

She was moving incredibly fast. The mud giant's mud spikes continued to chase after her, but every time they got near, she agilely dodged them and closed the distance to her target.

'Why?!'

The mud giant clenched its fist. It grit its teeth, then punched with all of its power at Charlotte, who had managed to get near its foot down below.

'Why aren't my attacks working on you?!'

It dumped a massive amount of demonic energy into its attack. A dense aura enveloped the fist seemingly made out of nothing but granite.

{Search for the optimal time.}

Charlotte recalled Oscal's teachings once more.

{The best timing for deflecting your opponent's strike.}

Her crimson eyes seemed to gleam brightly just then.
