Fortunately, despite the gravity of the situation, Jack did not stop channeling his spell. He forced himself to concentrate on forming the rune. The rune was completed right before the claws struck his body. A light sphere came out and formed an impenetrable wall around him. The light claws slammed onto the barrier, which shook heavily upon the impact.
Despite the tremendous force suffered from the blow, the Barrier remained intact, which shocked Scarface greatly. This spell of his could annihilate a normal level 15 Magician or Ranger in one hit. Even if a Mage used a Barrier, a level 1 Barrier could only survive damage equivalent to 50% of the Mage's total HP. Even if Jack upgraded his Barrier until it could survive damage equal to 100% of his HP, which should be impossible at his level, the Barrier should still be destroyed after that one hit. The only reasonable explanation was that Jack's HP was more than half of other regular Magicians or Mages, which was equally impossible.
