<If he hits me, I'm dead meat!>
Nathaniel charged like a chariot. However, his speed was several times higher than before.
<Not that!>
Indeed, Nathaniel's legs and feet were surrounded by mana. He was using Force Steps to increase his speed. Erik could barely jump to the side before Nathaniel moved. His attack missed Erik, but created a small burst of energy in front of him.
The students closer to the ring were thrown several meters in the air, and Erik got tossed to the other side of the ring.
<HOLY SHIT!> Erik thought. That attack was devastating. It probably wasn't something life-threatening, but it was still powerful enough to break his bones if he got it.
Nathaniel smirked.
"Did you like that?"
Erik didn't reply, but he, too, understood Nathaniel was toying with him.
<Damn, even though I'm trying my hardest not to make him toy with me, he's still doing it>
