Seeing Kain move to evade, the Slime also gave chase, creating a somewhat peculiar pursuit between a person and a large watery sphere. However, this was a deadly chase.
Kain wasn't foolish enough to run into the inner part of the room; instead, he ran along the wall, where the path was longest to extend the chase time. Also, if one end was blocked, he could switch to the other end to run without making sharp turns.
During this process, Kain no longer used [Thunder Magic] but switched to [Fire Magic], which could somewhat counter a liquid enemy like the Slime.
However, the counter-effect between water and fire works both ways.
Fire strong enough can evaporate water, but water heavy enough can extinguish fire.
This isn't just about their physical properties but also their concepts. Water is smooth and calm, heavy and stable. Fire, meanwhile, is constantly fluctuating, light, and chaotic.
In this battle, this was very clearly demonstrated.
