The darkness affinity guy looked at his surroundings trying to discern where did Chris disappear to, just to realize that he couldn't find any traces of her.
'Where the hell did that unrefined bitch go, there is no way an earth affinity mage can hide from me!', he inwardly cursed, as a darkness affinity mage, his senses were way more developed than those of other affinity mages.
It's normal, considering that darkness has a natural hiding property, meaning that darkness mages are used to pay details to small details that can work as traces and yet here he was not being able to find a "savage" that simply punched the ground really hard to fight him.
That being said it's not like he was going to stay put and wait for the enemy to attack him, in fact he took a page from Chris's tactic from earlier.
"Dark Mist", a wave of corrosive dark fog was released with the enemy as the center, covering everything in the vicinity.
