 Reiko did not catch him, but spun her body and dodged with half her body.

 She then used the momentum of her spin to throw a back fist at Rubel.

 However, either her timing was a little too late or Rubel was too fast, and the backfist only grazed her red hair.

 Rubel was kicking the ground with her foot as they passed each other, sending up stones and debris toward Reiko.

 Sliding from a speed of over 300 km/h, even Rubel was not without damage, but she judged that it was much less than the damage from Reiko's attack.

"But we're far enough away from Reiko."

I've got him.

 Reiko's voice came from behind him, and at the same time, Rubel was pinned down.

"It's over."

 If Reiko could increase the power by another ten percent, Rubel's arms would fall off her shoulders.
