I was very surprised at the speed Senior Trent showed as he lunged at . I almost lost my bearings and I was lucky to barely dodge when I saw the blade on his halberd already a few centiters in front of . But as I said, barely.

I tried to dodge to the left but he managed to nick on my right shoulder which tore my sleeve. I used Rile to push his halberd away then swung Sanx in an arc in an attempt to hit him. But Senior Trent ducked and swung his halberd on my legs which I managed to jump over.

I reinforced so energy on my legs and jumped out of the way then sorsaulted a few tis before landing a few feet away from him.

You have nice reflexes. he grinned. But, I thought youre a mage? How co you can do things a martial artist can do?

What about you? Whats your problem?! I exclaid at him. You attacked all of a sudden!

I told you I want to fight you.

-My gosh Is this guy a battle maniac of so sort?

In the blink of an eye, Senior Trent vanished from my line of sight and appeared all of a sudden in front of , his fist already coming my way. I deflected it using my swords and pushed him away. I then delivered a kick at the side of his head then swung my two swords at him. But he was able to deflect both of my attacks with his halberd and used the sa halberd to throw away.

-Hes so fast. Is he perhaps using ?

is a skill that can increase ones speed. Others misinterpret it as but in reality, the user was moving at the speed the naked eyes couldnt catch up on which may seem like he was teleporting.

I had the feeling that Senior Trent was using . But considering he was a magus knight with a lightning attribute, he already had exceptional speed in the beginning.

-Well, hes not the only one that could use .

I gathered energy all around my body, circulating it with most of its concentration my legs. I visualized my fast movent and I saw myself lunging at Senior Trent at a fast speed. I swung my sword at him from above but he managed to dodge it, of course, I was able to get him back for tearing my uniforms sleeve by using external energy to hit him on the chest while I was at it.

It wasnt a strong attack just enough to push him back and maybe cause a bruise or sothing. I tried to hide my smile when I saw his confused expression as he looked at the blown right sleeve of his uniform.

Youve got so good tricks Junior Luna. And I can see you can use as well.

The next few minutes of our fight turned out to involve speed. A lot. If anyone was watching on the sidelines theyd obviously only see after images of both the tid we were lunging at each other as well as when our weapons clashed.

I bended my knees a little, then pointed the sword on my right forward and lastly gripped the sword on my left as I placed at the right side of my waist. I covered my swords with energy and watched as Senior Trent lunged at with his halberd on its way to .

I sped forward, using the sword on my right to deflect his halberd my making it slide sideways through the blade and then went to his neck using my other sword.

Just as my sword ca dangerous close to Senior Trents neck, I realized if I continued, I could kill him but on the bad side, it was too late to pull back because of the montum of my swing.

-Please let him be able to dodge!

That was whats on my head and I really hoped Senior Trent could really dodge it or else I would be in deep trouble. My swords were enhanced with natural energy so it was sharper than usual.

I was already feeling dread, but I was taken aback when I slled the scent of sothing burning, and my sword was suddenly deflected by lightning. It threw across the clearing, but I managed to land on the trunk of a tree and jumped to the ground. I also saw Senior Trent get blown away by the sa thing, only he was more unlucky since he ended up slamming to a tree with a thick trunk.

All of a sudden, lightning wrapped around his body with his halberd cackling with the sa dark blue lightning tendrils.

That was close. I heard him say. Really close. Youre really good with combat

-Not exactly

Lets see how youll do with having magic on the mix.

My first thought after hearing those words; Hes crazy!

-Has he lost his mind with my last attack? Now he wants to fight him with magic involved?

The lightning around him beca thicker as it danced all around him. A few of those tendrils even strayed to the ground which burnt it.

I prided myself for being more advanced than my peers in terms of combat and magic, but Senior Trent was making run for my money. But I had to admit, despite having quite a hard ti dealing with him without utilizing the full use of , fighting Senior Trent was worth it.

-Trent Kidlat. Aha! Hes the top student of the entire third years!

I rembered seeing his na on top of the third year rosters in the past exams. He was the one who was able to beat Torii for the top spot!

Are you sure you want to go that far? I asked. My magic underwent so changes, for the lack of word, these days. I dont think I can hold back.

Which makes it more fun.

If you say so.

Converting external energy into flas could take so of my strength and concentration, so I opted on using the new skill a reawakened after acquiring my fox core.

I visualized small orbs of bluish-white flas spread behind , nine of them, like my tails. Just as Senior Trent lunged at with his halberd coated with lightning, I threw smaller fireballs from the orbs towards him, like so sort of lasers, which surprisingly he managed to either evade or dodge. He probably got hit too but he did not show it.

When I figured it would be useless to throw attacks at him, I decided to lunge at him as well.

I coated my swords with fox fire and swung at the incoming Senior Trent.

Fire and lightning clashed. And although it may seem weird, I think the two of us had smiles on our faces as we exchanged blows.

A/N:

Sorry for the crappy fight scene, I really suck at making one. Its different from my imagination and the ones I see in ani than actually putting it into words. I hope its okay and I wish for your understanding.
