He had only seen those things in the ocean, but this one was on land. He could move in a flash. Looking at the speed of that thing, Abel could easily escape even if he couldn't win.
This was the biggest difference between a wizard and other occupations. Although priests had many cunning moves and summons, they could not move in a flash. That was why they were always suppressed during a one to one fight.
A wizard and strike and leave without limit. Even if a priest was using their stone monster and iron monster as mounts, they would be no match to a wizard's move in a flash.
This was the case with every occupation. Therefore the most powerful organization in the Central Continent was still the Wizard Union. Even some less well-known wizard schools could go head to head with other occupations.
