112 Elder's Trial(2)

"Nina! Attack them while they cannot move!" Leo said to her as he swung his sword at the Obsidian Ghouls.

"B-But my attacks don't work on them!" She said.

Whoosh!

Leo's sword cleanly severed the Obsidian Ghoul's body in half, but there was something different about the sensation when he cut it down. It felt a lot easier to cut the Obsidian Ghoul this time.

'This is… don't tell me…!'

Leo quickly realized what was going on, but he needed to confirm it, so he swung his sword at another Obsidian Ghoul.

'I knew it! It's a lot easier cutting them now that they're restrained! Is this an additional effect of the artifact, or do Obsidian Ghouls become weaker when they are restrained? Either way, this is great for us!'

He then shared his findings with Nina, "Nina! I don't know why, but their defenses are a lot weaker now! Maybe you can kill them in their current state! Hurry up! My mana won't last long with how much mana this artifact consumes!"
