Vast tarot cards swirl around Carl.
"What's wrong, as a melee fighter you're not seizing the initiative?"
Carl had no intention of attacking first; instead, he stood leisurely in place.
Su Xiao kicked a branch flying, and it ignited with a whoosh a few meters from Carl. Seconds later, the branch turned into several pieces of charcoal that fell to the ground, with faint traces of water seeping out.
Fire, wind, water—Su Xiao vaguely sensed these elements were unusually dense around Carl, but due to his Absolute Demon Physique, his perception of the elements was somewhat blurry.
He absolutely must not approach the opponent now, or he would be targeted by chaotic elemental attacks. The area around the opponent was filled with turbulent elemental currents.
Approaching now would mean fighting against the three elements surrounding Carl, not Carl himself.
This state of Carl's will soon end; it's a defensive measure during his preparation phase.
