Chapter 85: Exploration

"Understood, Sensei?"

"Oh... that has a nice ring to it."

Afterward, the two sparred lightly.

Jack-Jack's skill set isn't particularly strong, yet his combat skills are exceptional, likely due to centuries spent honing his abilities for revenge.

"Atri, ready for the next round?"

"Yes, my god! One more time!"

Atri charged forward as Jack-Jack nodded calmly.

"Very well."

Atri closed the gap using Offering: Dance of Swift Escape, but Jack-Jack negated the advantage with a counter-art, blocking the scythe's large swing with just a light finger movement.

A thread caught Atri's hand, slowing her movement just slightly.

In that brief moment, flames engulfed her clothes. Oil was splashed over her, and the fire showed no signs of stopping. The problem wasn't so much the damage but how the fire obscured her vision.

Although she tried to hold him off with Flash, Jack-Jack caught her with a shoulder throw.
