A sizzling sound filled the air.
Libbe let out a sharp breath, her eyes widening as steam rose from where their skin touched. Her flesh bubbled, boiling from within. But just as quickly as the damage appeared, her body fought against it, regenerating at a rapid pace.
Alex narrowed his eyes. Even this isn't enough?
With a flick of his wrist, he changed spells—Frostbind.
A burst of icy energy spread from his hand, creeping up Libbe's arm, freezing her flesh solid in an instant. Her movements stilled, her body temporarily locked in place as frost spread across her shoulder.
But before he could capitalize on it—
CRACK!
The ice shattered, and Libbe burst free, lunging at Alex.
He barely dodged, stepping back just as her fist grazed past his face. Her speed was relentless, her strikes precise despite her body still recovering.
Alex exhaled sharply. "Fine. If I can't stop your regeneration with damage alone…"
His eyes gleamed as he activated Time Dilation.
