Neb feels that something is wrong when the fool in the mud pool is too easily killed and dodges blindly to one side. It's what saves him, Dantes' blade gives him a deep and unpleasant wound across his back but doesn't kill him like it would have had he not dodged. The pain causes him to stumble and collapse.
Hardly a second passes before he gets to his feet again, however. He literally growls as he charges towards his foe, staff raised to strike. His opponent would probably parry and judging from the magic of his blade maybe destroy the staff. Which was the sorcerer's intention. The magic that would be released should the staff be destroyed would most assuredly wipe out his foolish foe. Though maybe him as well, a small risk that was acceptable.
