Bab 2001: Charging Attack

Rui had never felt more alive.

He had never felt more alive than he did at the very moment the chimera's attack struck him.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH!!!!!

It was the first attack of the battle.

An attack he foresaw.

A future he foresaw.

He had never applied the SOUL System to the chimera.

Yet, he didn't need to.

At that moment, he was not fighting the chimera.

No.

He was fighting an angel. He was fighting a species for which he had already created a SOUL model and predictive model. 

He foresaw the attack a whole second before it arrived.

Not a lot of time for a human, no, but it may as well have been an eternity for a Martial Senior.

An eternity of preparation.

Preparation to survive the most horrifying attack he had ever been struck with.
