You agitated him—were the words, Alex heard before he found himself flying away.
"Agh." He winced, the punch caved in his stomach, and the boy was hurled away at an incredible pace.
"Alex!" Celestria's voice rang, but before she could have moved, Rebecca appeared behind him and held his body before he could have crashed into the tree.
"You okay?" She asked as she helped him get back on his feet.
He nodded in assent.
Alex has fulfilled his role of bringing the undead to the ground with that agonizing move earlier. And now, Natasha was involved in a battle, in which she clearly was at a disadvantage.
"You can't use your blood arts, right?" Alex asked, and as he expected, Rebecca shook her head.
Their greatest fighting forces were all helpless here because of the Soul Energy absorption.
Edric also jumped toward the undead; however, being in an weakened state, his punch didn't even make the monster flinch.
