Wasn't Gabriel able to absorb ice?
Yeah, he was. Gabriel was able to absorb/nullify (the wording is strange) nearly every element you could possibly list. (Fire, ice, metal, water, wind, ice, darkness, light, etc.)
Edit: Here's the scan.
"Generate all element!"
Imagining the surrounding space itself as a terminal and creating
dozens of elements of all types, I dived and launched them all at the same time.
"Discharge!!"
Fiery arrows, icy spears, blades of wind, and various other colors tore across the heavens.
I chased after the Arts and raised both swords in my left and right hands.
Gabriel Miller showed absolutely no sign of evading.
Still smiling thinly, he simply opened his arms wide.
Eight colors of light pierced into his bluish darkness-wrapped body.
Not missing the opportunity as his upper body trembled, I swept
the sword in my right hand towards the man's torso and thrust the sword in my left hand through his chest. Slimy darkness splashed and left a chill where it brushed across my skin.
Right afterwards I flew to pull back the distance and whirled around again.
What my eyes ended up capturing was—
Gabriel slowly drawing the spilled, amorphous darkness back
towards him, and turning around as if nothing had happened. The jacket covering his body was unscathed.
I knew it.
This man's attribute was the ability to absorb slashes, thrusts, flames, freezing, whirlwinds, steel arrows, water streams, crystal blades, rays of light, and dark curses.
The fabric of my coat and the flesh of my right shoulder, caressed by the void blade during the instant we had clashed, had been destroyed and looked as though it was peeling away as blood spurted.
