The Golem Mage

Chapter 971: Bloodline/Axis Arcanum.

Alec clearly wasn’t about to play around with Afolayan now that his speed had increased.

Afolayan was dashing at such a terrifying speed that the sound of his aftershock came only after he had already reached his target—yet even with that, he still couldn’t defeat Alec.

As he rushed in to continue his attack on Alec again, a smile blossomed on his face, he had been restraining himself against Lucas because he hadn’t wanted to end the fight too quickly, he wanted to enjoy himself for a little more longer, but now that he was fighting Alec, he could finally use his full strength without worrying about the battle ending too easily.

Still, he wasn’t the only one who’d been holding back.

This time, when he struck, Alec was more prepared, as he raised his katana to block , and as Afolayan stared into his face, he noticed Alec’s eyes glowing with a faint blue hue.

In that moment he stared at him Alec tilted his blade slightly, causing Afolayan’s claws to slide down along its edge as he dashed past him again.

But this time, Alec didn’t move too far, as his left foot slid back half a step, tracing a small half-circle as he shifted his stance, with both his hands gripping the katana’s hilt, while he angled the blade, Afolayan was still turning to face him when he slashed upward in a clean vertical motion from a low position.
