Even though the fight between Helen and Solaris had reached a point where one more blow could have decided the outcome, a voice in Solaris's head distracted him.
The telepathy he was using was probably communication with Irnina, according to what Karol had just said.
Helen, with a furrowed brow, raised her voice at Solaris.
"Stop wasting time and focus on our fight, you idiot!"
Solaris didn't respond, nor did he look at her. He remained completely focused on the voice inside his head.
Ryan turned to Karol.
"Do you think he's trying to call his dragon?"
Karol didn't take her eyes off the center of the room.
"I'm not sure. After all, they're demons. They don't have to respect a duel."
"I get it," Ryan replied.
'Of course,' he thought. 'But we weren't going to respect that duel either if things went wrong.'
At that moment, Helen charged.
As she cut through the air toward Solaris, sword pulled back and body fully extended, she activated her skill with a calm, unhurried voice.
