A young vampire appeared in front of him with a spear extended. The guy was momentarily shocked to see that Elion had actually chosen to dive right in instead of retreating after the initial barrage.
But Elion could see in real time as the young vampire's shock vanished quickly, replaced by deadly focus, readjusting his weapon, moving it quickly, and thrusting directly toward Elion's chest with all the strength he could muster.
Woosh!
But as fast as the young guy was, Elion was faster, shifting half a step to the side with impossible agility, shocking the young guy once again as the spear passed harmlessly beside Elion.
He calmly placed two fingers against the shaft. "Fireball." A tiny sphere of flame appeared, spinning quickly as Elion poured a lot of mana into it.
The vampire's eyes widened as he watched the spell explode against the spear.
The young noble was thrown backward, spinning through the air before crashing painfully onto the ground.
