I shot towards Baraqiel as Ira's blast dazed him, zipping up above him as I closed in and grabbed the top of his head, unleashing several Mana Pulses along with Slumber.
I simultaneously manifested Drain, attempting to consume the Mana around his Halo and-...what? The jaws of Drain are getting warped around the Halo...I see, it isn't simply raw Mana he's cloaked his Halo with, it's some kind of spatial distortion effect. If even Obliterate and Drain can't get through, it seems I can't take any shortcuts here, my only option is to keep wearing down his MP.
I then tightened my grip and triggered as many more Mana Pulses as I could, before letting go and flying back as he unleashed a concentrated blast of lightning around himself.
"Th-That attack...," He growled, trembling as he regenerated, healing visibly slower than before.
