"Absolute Defense—Perfect Shield Counter!"
The Ant King struck with all its might.
BAM!
A terrifying force exploded from the Shield—the Ant King's own power.
THUMP THUMP THUMP!
Sent flying by its own power, the Ant King tumbled several times before coming to a stop.
Everyone froze when they saw this.
Then, they burst into cries of amazement.
"Holy shit! That was so strong!"
"It actually sent the Ant King flying! I'd call that the ultimate Shield Counter!"
"Unbelievable! A Shield Counter is supposed to depend on the difference in power, right? This is just insane!"
The crowd cheered, thinking victory was within their grasp.
But Reina's heart sank. She knew the odds were not in their favor.
That last blow had consumed half of her Fighting Spirit.
Although the Ant King had been knocked down by its own power, it hadn't taken much damage.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
