Chapter 753
『Witness the power that I have obtained!』
Baal is pouncing towards me. I begin casting [Curse Knight] while raising my claws.
But, I have no idea how to respond. Even if I manage to completely win an exchange, he’ll use [Choice of the Quantum Cat] to cancel it out and then hit me with an unavoidable attack again. It’s almost inevitable that I’ll take a massive amount of damage in retaliation. I have no choice but to bear this in mind, but as a result, I'll inevitably keep second guessing everything I do.
Suddenly, a tremor seems to run through Baal, and he disappears. He’s using [Feline Alibi] again. The MP cost is high, so I had thought he might not use it again, but he seems to be using it like it’s nothing.
The next moment, a blow strikes the back of my head.
“GuuUU!”
My consciousness flickers. Another claw hits my back, and I haphazardly release the [Curse Knights] as I twist around.
The four pale knights charge towards Baal. But, he doesn’t show any sign of avoiding them. At the moment of contact, his outline shakes and he appears to dissolve into the space. The knights pass through where he stood, then he quickly rematerialises.
His control of [Feline Alibi] has improved! He kept the MP cost low by waiting until the last moment.
