Azul's copies appeared beside Bob. Each of them was already in motion and ready to strike.
Bob did not flinch. With my gunblade in his hand, he rapidly shot each of the copies in quick succession. The attacks landed almost at the same time, only milliseconds apart.
"Tch!"
Azul clicked his tongue. He was in a pinch. He never expected Bob to counter his trickery as easy as that.
The bullets passed straight through two of the copies, while the real Azul bent his body and barely evaded the shot. However, in that very instant, Bob was already on the move. He appeared right in front of Azul and slashed him across the face.
THUMP!
Azul was sent flying toward the wall, for the umpteenth time already today.
"Darn it! He still managed to evade at the last moment, even when I'm in this form!"
The red aura surrounding Bob began to disperse. He jumped down beside me and Linus. His breathing rapid and heavy, exactly as expected from the recoil.
