It certainly helped a lot! Before she had to both jump and aim her blaster and try to shoot down everything shooting at her before the sea of bullets became too much, but now she just has the sweep in the right direction to absorb the energy bullets and shield herself while the blade charges up. She still had to focus on jumping though.. but now the other issue covered, this made it way easier!

Dan ponders out loud again "
Hmm, but what other kinds of work is there in the manor? I have only seen maids here so far..."

Claire: Excuse me a moment, sir. *turns to the side to answer her smartphone, cutting off the music* Claire speaking... ...Yes? ... ... *jaw drops open* But... I...! Why shouldn't I have to attend to my shift today? ... ...What do you mean, the billiard hall is as clean as it's ever been? ... *glares at nothing* Look, Miss Sabrina, you know how I get when I don't have any work to do. Break the lights over the tables and spill wine on the floor if you have to. ...Yes, I'll take the #^$*%!ß pay deduction, just do it! ...Thanks, I'll be there shortly.
*Claire hangs up her phone, then hurriedly takes the rest of her meal with her and leaves the room.*
He subly waves goodbye to Claire as she leaves.
