A surge of energy flowed into Leon's body right away, making him feel lighter and stronger at the same time.
His reaction speed increased significantly while his physical power rose to a level that would allow him to deal with incoming attacks much more efficiently.
And just as expected—
Fwoosh!
Another arrow came flying toward them, this one clearly stronger and faster than the previous one, cutting through the air with even more force as it aimed directly at Leon.
This time, he didn't even consider dodging.
Instead, he stepped forward slightly and swung his sword with perfect timing.
SLASH!
The blade cut straight through the arrow midair, splitting it cleanly in half before it could reach him, the two pieces flying past harmlessly as Leon remained completely steady in his position.
In that brief moment before impact, he noticed something important. A faint flame wrapped around the arrow.
