Julia watched as Winslow closed the short distance to attack. Without much thought, she got into a defensive stance and channelled her mana, allowing it to blaze around her entire body.
She had no intention of using her sword on someone like that.
'My fists will be more than enough.' She thought inwardly and jumped out of the way as Winslow unleashed the full force of his abilities once he reached five metres, pointing his right arm out.
A cluster of vines collided with the ground where Julia once stood.
"Not so tough now, are we?" Winslow mocked, pressing on with his attack as Julia evaded the vines. Her agility and reflexes made her movements surreal to watch.
Not a single vine could grasp her, frustrating the boy to no end. Realising that he would not be able to catch her this way, he relinquished the use of his abilities and moved in to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
