"The Raging Armor… so you've decided to go all out, huh?"
Eleanor clenched her fist inside the ice armor.
Carmen did the same.
Their fists collided.
One unleashed a surge of frost aura, the other the flames of a star, each one trying to overpower the other.
Carmen then launched a lightning-fast kick toward Eleanor's head, aiming to obliterate it.
But once again, the ice circle spun—
And for a brief moment, time seemed to freeze.
It gave Eleanor just enough time to evade and counterattack.
Carmen frowned.
"That damned circle…"
Time hadn't actually stopped—the circle had simply unleashed a wave of cold that slowed Carmen down significantly.
"I'll destroy it!"
A surge of aura formed around Carmen's fist as she punched from afar, unleashing a devastating blue beam toward Eleanor.
The attack struck with a deafening explosion, shaking the battlefield—
But it did little damage.
As the blast faded, a massive ice shield emerged in front of Eleanor.
