And with that, Suzakura's soda trick landed its mark on Michael. Michael tried to back off, but it was too late, and the soda splashed all over him... Or at least, it would have, had it not been for the shield Symbol he had drawn on himself earlier when he first approached Vera. The protective layer of energy made the soda can and its contents bounce and slide off him, none of its sticky substance actually reaching him. Even Michael had actually forgotten he had done so, and was relieved he had been cautious before. With that crisis averted, Michael turned his attention back to Suzakura. Now fully justified to retaliate, Michael balled his fist and threw a punch at his face. At the same time, Michael covered the top of his forearm in a striped arrow pattern and the top of his fist with a solid sphere. This would increase the speed of his punch while hardening his fist to better withstand the force of impact while dealing a more devastating blow.
