Fighting a High Noble

He had yet to lose a battle, but it was evident that the fifth fight would become increasingly more difficult. 

At last. Michael's fifth fight began, and it changed everything.

He was called into the combat ring alongside Lincoln Piedra. The young descendant of the Piedra household turned out to be his next opponent.

'He is already at Tier-2, can manipulate gravity to a certain extent, turn his skin into hard stone, and manifest a stone fist to use as a cannonball-like projectile.' Michael ticked off Lincoln's abilities.

After watching multiple battles of Lincoln, Michael gathered all those pieces of information. He wasn't certain that this was the full extent of Lincoln's power, but he presumed that Lincoln had a few more tricks up his sleeve.

"Let's give our best!" Lincoln said cheerfully but without a tad of worry in his heart. He didn't even manifest a single Artifact.

Giving his best- That was exactly what Michael was ready to do.
