Bab 182: Chapter 182. Battle Against Scarface

Jack had fought against Scarface before, but at that time, he hadn't engaged directly with the man. He had made a short ambush attack on the first and second encounters, and on the third one, it was mostly Bowler and Flame who dealt with the man. So, now was the first time he had a direct match with this man. Not to mention previously he had been engaging as a Fighter but now he could only use his Mage skill, so it was a very different arrangement.

Jack could see that the man's skill in utilizing the Mage's skills and attacks was better than him, thus he could only abuse his marginally higher stats. He cast Energy Bolts to distract the man and used the window it had created to dash forward and get into melee range.

Runic symbol quickly formed on the tip of Scarface's vine staff. 

Jack was alarmed. 'So fast!' The rune was formed in just a second, and a light barrier appeared around Scarface. His five Energy Bolts slammed onto the light wall and dissipated.
