Damn the plot thickens, but to lose a 1v1 by getting bodied by a cube, is a hell of a way to go out. Noa didn't even have a chance to counter attack. If I was Erin I would learn from this experience, and get stronger so I can be ready for next time, or the next person to pull the same stunt as Noa. I wonder if Erin has something to do with how magic works in this world, it's like connecting to a server, and requesting permission to use fireball spell. In a normal isekai you could just cast the spell.
