"I blocked it with a flame barrier while I was inside the dust, how else would I have blocked it?" Roman replied with a smile staring at Ava.
If Roman truly blocked it with a flame barrier, that would mean his barrier was a lot stronger, as it was able to stop all the spells Reena cast, but the girls didn't buy it at all.
If it was really a flame barrier, why not cast it instead of dodging the spell earlier, or maybe he wanted to show his skill, but why cast it under cover where no one could see?
This was the first time they had seen him fight, and even though he didn't put in a dominant display, he was still the winner, but Aurelia still felt he held back. She didn't know why she thought that, but the way Roman behaved made her feel like that.
"Roman can I ask you a question?" Elena asked as she turned towards him facing away from Reena.
"Sure"
"Do you hold back against Reena?" Elena asked.
