The Shadow followed up with a strike that sent another wave of sound magic towards him.
It distorted the air and shook the wreckage around them.
Neo grunted.
His ears were ringing and he was disoriented.
Arthur's Shadow disappeared.
'The Shadow is faster than me. I will lose if I face it in a contest of speed.'
Neo knew he was vulnerable.
He closed his eyes and spread out his senses.
Suddenly, he twisted his wrist and blocked the invisible blade.
Arthur's Shadow cancelled its invisibility and retreated.
"As I thought, surprise attacks are useless against you."
The Shadow maintained an emotionless face.
It used its superior agility to attack Neo from different directions.
The attacks were perfectly timed and savage.
Each one of them was aimed at Neo's vital.
The Shadow disappeared into the debris with a swift movement.
It used the environment to hide itself.
