TIME STOP!
As soon as he activated his forbidden spell, the world turned grey around Leon, and everything stopped.
Every particle of dust froze in midair, every sound silenced, every movement halted as if the universe itself had paused for him.
He looked up to see that Zarek was only a few meters from reaching the ground.
His meteor-like smash attack almost certainly on the verge of destroying the entire arena with its devastating impact, the sheer force of it already cracking the stone beneath.
Leon wouldn't be surprised if the battle was impossible to continue afterward, or if some people on the stands died due to the shockwave of the attack.
But that didn't matter to Leon, because now that time stopped, he could do whatever he wanted without any interference.
With a single powerful jump, he arrived to Zarek's height, Leon's sword glowing with a crimson and white aura as he prepared his strongest physical attack to finish the job.
