"What is that?!" Even the Gnome dressed in silver robes exclaimed in shock.
Klaus was just as dumbfounded as the silver robbed Gnome.
The battle on Klaus's side had not started, but even the ones that had started paused. Reynolds and his opponent stopped to take a look in the direction of Hugh, and so did Alice and her opponent. Even the Peak Sovereign Commander who was in a heated battle with the black robbed Gnome halted their battle as well. All looking at Hugh with an incredulous expression.
The Fifth stage Sovereign Gnome facing Hugh was just as bewildered as the others. He, too, froze in a dazed state as he stared at what looked like spikey vines shooting in his direction. It was only when the vine was very close to him did he get out of his dazed state. Sensing danger, the Gnome snapped out of his startled state, bringing out his Puppet to marginally block the vine coming at him.
