Almost every battle Adam fought in the Tarnished Lands was more like a duel than a wild battle.
In fact, Alexia was in the same situation.
They both always knew when an Elder wanted to attack them. Their aura was as obvious as their intentions.
It didn't matter if it was an official battle like against Ureyn and Erada, or a sudden skirmish like against Menax. It was a human against a monster in human form.
But...
The Primal Lands were a completely different story.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
The earth shook as the huge ice worm continued to move upward, leaving Alexia helpless.
She couldn't believe what she was seeing.
'I didn't even feel anything! How could such a giant sneak up on us? Why is it so fast?!'
Alexia didn't realize it yet, but the feeling she was experiencing now was the same one she had felt in the early days of her path, when she had just become a Phantom.
