The failed Marionette was preparing for a fireball.
The woman who lost control was a sorcerer.
The rate of casting the fireball was insane, as it was launched instantly.
Lucien had a split second to dodge it, and he barely did.
As he barely stabilized himself after the dodge, he noticed the Marionette was charging another fireball to attack.
'I can't do this on my own.'
He immediately prepared himself to dodge as soon as he witnessed the trajectory of the incoming fireball.
He was constantly moving erratically, trying to remain unpredictable and get as close to her as possible.
He could use his [Mirrorstep], but he wanted to save his spirit energy as much as possible.
He didn't know what the failed Marionette had in store for him.
A fraction of a second later, the fireball was launched again, even faster this time.
At this point, Lucien was only surviving due to his instincts and his mastery over the basic footwork, barely keeping up with the creature.
