They didn't care how she had such great strength at the moment, they could figure that out later, they just wanted her to win. Paul, on the other hand, was glancing at Kazz to see if she would act.
”What?” Kazz replied, staring back at him. 'I'm not going to do anything. Super strength can be explained in many ways. No one is suddenly going to think she's a vampire. Even if she showed healing or multiple abilities, people won't just assume they're a vampire because of this.”
Paul didn't reply back, but at least his worries were diminished, Kazz couldn't act with all these people around them already and she was right. The blood aura was different because it was something only vampires could perform, which was why right now, Fex was struggling with his opponents.
Fex could easily dodge the incoming attacks, but the barriers that were being made were invisible. He had even tried hitting one to try break it, but using regular strength there was no luck. To break one he would have to use full force, or maybe his blood skills, and that would reveal him.
So he was in quite a difficult position. The same could be said for Nate. Nate wasn't getting hurt by Wevil, but at the same time, he wasn't able to hold him, stop him or damage him, in a situation like this. It was a bad matchup for Nate.
If he was patient, then he could just wait for Wevil to run out of stamina, but Nate wanted to act now.
'My princess Helen is watching me. If I don't show I can do something, then she will think I'm weak. And who would want to go out with someone weak!' Nate thought.
Seeing Fex in trouble, and figuring out what was happening, Nate decided it was time for a change of plan. Ignoring Wevil, he went towards where Fex was and when he was close, with his fists hardened; he threw out a punch smashing the barriers.
”Do you mind swapping with me?” Nate asked.
”My pleasure,” Fex replied.
Immediately, when Wevil came towards him, Fex had set up a trap with his strings, tying his legs up and then punching him in the stomach, sending him to the floor.
Wevil got up and took a few steps back, bent over from the blow.
'His string is really not good for my ability, but there is still something I can do,' Wevil thought.
Activating his soul weapon, he managed to enhance his speed. For a brief time, he could now move twice as fast.
'With this, he won't be able to catch me going this fast.' Wevil thought.
Changing direction, moving left and right, Wevil was ready with his daggers, but Fex just stood there trying to keep track of him. Then when Wevil jumped, he was stopped again, held by the string.
”I know people who are a lot faster than you. And if I couldn't see them, then I would be pretty useless!” Fex said, pulling him forward with the string and punching him right in the face.
Meanwhile, Nate was smashing through barriers as they were being made and the wind attacks were proving useless against him.
”I'm just wasting my time here!” Tony said in frustration. His ability was more suited to reflect those that used elemental abilities, but against someone with strength like this, it was useless. Looking around, Tony was trying to see if there was anyone else he could go for and that's when he spotted Sil, standing at the back with his hands by his side.
”He looks like an easy one!” Tony said, going right past Nate.
”No!” Nate called out trying to stop him, but Hana, attacking with her wind strikes, stopped him from moving. Nate was worried. He knew Fex said Sil was strong but he hadn't seen any of that to prove it.
Laughing like a mad man, Tony thought he had Sil right where he needed him. A barrier was raised behind and to both of his sides, so if he was to try and escape there was only one direction he could move in, but Sil just stayed there still.
Grabbing the beast spear from his back. Tony thrusted it forward.
”Die!”
Touching Sil's skin, a clang noise was heard, and the spear hadn't moved a single inch into his skin.
'Hardening?' Nate thought, 'but I thought his ability was transformation, like Dennis's?”
Grabbing hold of the spear, Sil pulled Tony forward and placed his hand on his head, Tony tried punching Sil as hard as he could, but his body wouldn't budge and he had only hurt his own hand in the process.
”You have quite the fun ability, is this how you use it?” Lifting his hand, Sil created a barrier that perfectly fitted Tony inside. He tried to move, but he couldn't even move enough to build up momentum to strike the barrier.
Hana, seeing this, threw out a wind strike at Tony. When it hit, there was nothing, the barrier wasn't damaged or destroyed at all.
”How is this possible, his barrier it's stronger than mine!?' Tony said but no one could hear him.
At that point, all the others understood what Sil's ability was. He was able to copy other people's abilities.
Sil decided to go back, and continued to be uninvolved with the fight. Seeing this sent a shiver down Helen's spine. 'That boy, if he had joined the fight from the beginning this would be all over, but for such a strong ability there has to be a condition. Is it when he touched his head?'
”Now this is interesting, it seems like a lot happened while I was away, and it's good to know Sil is listening to what I said before.” A voice from the crowd said.
