Babus was fleeing at a high speed, while carefully analyzing how to escape the current predicament.
He thought that his analysis of the caster who delivered that earth-shaking blow was correct.
Otherwise, the opponent wouldn't have delayed for so long and only struck with a desperate blow when at a disadvantage.
One must admit, his intelligence capacity might be a bit lacking, but his logical reasoning skills were indeed above standard.
However, such a conclusion didn't allow him to feel at ease.
Since the opponent was willing to go all out for the first strike, it was possible they'd do so for a second — he's seen many people who've given up everything.
So he couldn't stop and fight now; if the opponent's reinforcements arrived, he... might indeed lose.
Feeling the small figure relentlessly chasing and repeatedly blocking him with superior body technique, he couldn't help but sigh internally.
