Without hesitation, Ace gave it a thought and wished to enter the system space.
In a flash, his form shimmered and then he vanished from the spot only to reappear in the exact same spot a second later.
"What?" he muttered, blinking in disbelief.
This wasn't part of the plan.
He had banked everything on the formation blinding the beast just long enough for him to slip away unnoticed.
If he vanished too early, the tiger might've hovered around the area, where he vanished.
Considering the other party was also headmaster Amon, he would definitely leave a trap at the exact position he vanished.
But if he vanished after the blast, the illusion of a panicked retreat would have bought him precious time.
All of it—his quick thinking, his precision, his gamble—rested on one critical assumption: that the system space would let him in.
And it actually failed? He didn't expected that!
Even more, athe worst possible moment!
