Capítulo 535: Calling Her Bluff

"You… you almost had me."

Ketsu commented while holding his neck which was leaking blood with one hand. His other hand was placed over his heart.

Ketsu had used a defensive spell he had at his disposal at the right time that allowed him to fend off almost all of the shrapnels targeting his body. He feared he might have been critically injured if he hadn't deployed the spell at an optimal time.

The ranger didn't like using his defensive spell. That's because his element wasn't compatible with defensive spells and anything that was related to the materialization of mana.

He had to convert sound-element mana into sound waves that would stack upon one another and act as a defensive layer around his body. He depended on the density of the sound waves as well as the kinetic energy stored in them to deflect the attacks targeting him. As a result, his mana expenditure was too high whenever he executed those spells.
