from what i remember about the skill reflection was lower and will be lower then def for a long time. getting more def at this point is way better then taking damage and reflecting part of it. if reflection continues advancing as it is currently then by the time its equal to or surpasses def his def would already be blocking 100%. at that point the only reason to bother with reflection would be for attacks that have the ability to ignore def and lets be honest you know its going to happen at some point in a novel like this one... well it might happen :P
have you ever been hit by someone stronger then you before? it can hurt and sometimes hurt a lot. if its not 100% reflection at current level then he does need higher def as some of it will get through and one hit getting through can be enough to end you in a novel like this.
i honestly want to see him with 100% reflection just b/c i want to read about some sage level prick killing himself :D
