Radiel pushed forward, desperate to hit Mavenna with his spell, but his efforts were in vain.
He couldn't budge from his spot.
Both of his arms were trembling hard with both muscles and veins bulging with strength, but there was absolutely no chance that he could overpower Rex's grip. Realizing that sheer fact—he decided to pull his lance back and leap away.
In this position, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
His best chance of actually doing something was to restart the battle, back to square one.
Clank!
Despite his strong pull, Radiel gritted his teeth and turned to look at Rex again.
'I can't push through him, and I also can't pull my weapon, I'm stuck!' He thought in vexation.
Once again, he failed to retrieve his lance from Rex's pinch.
Unprepared for such a formidable opponent, much stronger than him, he had no other choice but to abandon his weapon—and leaped back. His feet slid across the sandy stone ground of the castle, coming to a halt near the staircase.
