BOOM!
Nier disappeared from his position and reappeared directly in front of Leon, moving so quickly that it seemed as though he had teleported.
His spear swept forward, aiming to pierce Leon before he could complete whatever he was planning.
Time Stop!
The world turned grey once more.
Leon immediately jumped into the air, raising the [Soulsworn Hammer] above his head as he prepared to bring it down with all his strength.
The head of the hammer began glowing with an intense blue light, its energy growing.
However, Nier had already adapted to Leon's abilities.
As time resumed, the Lord of Souls turned toward the space where Leon had been standing, only to realize that his opponent was now above him.
Without hesitation, Nier moved again, appearing behind Leon before slamming his spear into his body.
The attack struck with tremendous force, sending Leon crashing toward the ground before he could bring the hammer down.
"LEON!" Celeste shouted, her voice filled with panic.
