Javier's eyes flicked upward, scanning the sky as more magic circles materialized above him, each one larger and more intricate than the last. Their runes glowed with a deep, golden light that pulsed in a slow, rhythmic pattern.
Ah...
That's not a good sign.
These magic circles are different from the ones before. He's using a better version now. Even if it's still not his real power. Not even one percent.
Damn.
Should I use my puppet knight to lure the chains away?
He twisted his body, repelling another incoming chain with the back of his hand, the impact sending sparks scattering across the sand.
No... I don't think that'll work.
Father's magic isn't weak or stupid. Once it locks onto a target, it will reach that target. My inventions will probably be ignored. They'll pass right through them.
