With our arenas set, Ember's gaze turned fiery as he looked at with unmistakable fighting intent. 'Guess he'll finally get what he wants,' I ntally sighed, I was confident in my ability to win yet that did not an i'll underestimate my opponent.
As we stood sizing one another up, my grandfather's clear voice suddenly bood in our ears. "Begin!" As if on cue, Ember was the first to make a move. He dashed towards with surprising nimbleness.
I was montarily surprised at his speed, he had managed to close the distance between us in a matter of seconds. 'Well, let's test the waters first shall we,' I internally mumbled, a wide grin making its way into my face.
I lunged forward as well to et him, Ember was a bit surprised at that yet his gaze only seed to burn brighter, he opened his large maw as a fireball materialized in front of it. 'A dragon breath? No, this feeling, its mana!'
I did not sense the strange heart energy from his attack, which could only an he was using mana. I extended my consciousness to the surrounding mana, asking for its help.
A wall of ice suddenly appeared from thin air, shielding from the blast. Smoke rose from the point of impact, hindering our vision. Ember frowned as he looked left and right trying to find , I, on the other hand, was using his mana to pinpoint his location.
I circled him and then lunged towards his back, sending a few Ice sickles his way. Ember's eyes widened in surprise as I erged from the smoke, yet surprisingly, he still managed to launch a counter-attack of his own.
Four Fireballs appeared mid-air from all of my directions and rushed towards , as soon as they almost reached , a water bubble suddenly materialized with inside of it, as it nullified the attacks.
By this point, I had already reached Ember close-quarters combat was inevitable. Making use of my montum, I brandished my claws as I took aim at his neck.
Ember who was still surprised his counterattack didn't work, did not have much ti to react, he unconsciously took a few steps back which caused to narrowly miss, not before I left a small gash at his side.
Blood trickled onto the arena floor, Ember now stood with a small tear that had a few broken scales to his right side, his eyes seed to burn with rage as he stared at his wound and then back at .
I rely grinned as I brought my now bloodied claw to my face and licked the blood, 'That surprisingly doesn't taste bad,' I was montarily surprised, I did not expect that as my aim was to agitate Ember.
That seed to work as he let out a roar filled with rage, I looked at him with a haughty expression as I raised my head high in the air. Unable to take that, a sea of pointed flas, ones that looked almost like swords materialized behind him.
The flas burned in bright orange color, I could feel the fire mana leap with joy as it awaited his command. 'That's a lot,' I mumbled as I stood faced with the burning sea of orange.
'And it's too hot!' I groaned in annoyance. With but a thought, a wave twice as large as his sea of bladed flas erged from behind . My smirk widened as I looked at his almost unwilling expression.
Ember did not seem to have any intention of backing down, he hastily leaped to the air with a flap of his wings, his bladed flas suddenly rushed towards trying to catch off guard.
It was then that my giant wave moved to intercept his attacks. It appeared as if the sky was split into two sides, one red and one blue. Once our attacks collided, it beca clear who was at a disadvantage.
Ember was unable to co back down to the ground as the arena beca full of water, his attack was completely nullified. I calmly stood on top of the water as I glanced at his unwilling figure floating in the air.
Since the arena was bowl-shaped, the water remained which worked to my advantage as I turned the terrain in my favor. Ember let out another bellow of rage.
The fire mana seed to follow his emotions as it burned brighter and hotter than before. I frowned as the vague shape of a burning dragon appeared behind him.
This attack was stronger than the ones that ca before It, I could feel it. 'But so what? You will still lose!' My mouth curved upwards as a single spinning water orb materialized before .
Ember sent his flaming dragon while I sent my spiraling orb to face it. Once the two clashed both attacks were nullified. I glanced at him with an almost bored expression as I taunted him. 'Is that the best you can do?'
At this point, Ember seed to co to terms that he would not be able to beat using mana. He closed his eyes for a second before he opened them, his jaw opened as a spinning red and blue fla appeared.
Once the fla appeared, the surrounding air began to crack and break. For a second, I almost felt like I was facing my grandfather, almost...So since mana wont work, you are going for a dragons breath huh? So be it!
The only thing that could stop a dragon's breath is another one, I hastily willed my heart energy as a spinning clear blue orb materialized in front of my mouth. I could feel that the strength of this orb was significantly higher than any dragons breath I ever used.
Is it because of the na? I wondered, for so reason even the reserves of my heart energy felt as if they had expanded.
Still, I felt as if sothing was missing. For so reason, my mind continued to wander back to the cosmic mana I ca across today. Perhaps it was a bad idea, and perhaps it wasnt even going to work, yet maybe because of our location, I felt the need to try!
I tried to sense the peculiar mana in my surroundings, and to my ultimate surprise was easily able to find it. I didnt order it to help, nor did I ask as a friend, I simply showed it the way and left the decision to it.
It was a strange feeling, I felt as If I had to make the mana intrigued for It to help. I had no power over it, I could feel that much, and I had a sense that It would not simply want to help .
Luckily, my gamble paid off as the strange cosmo mana appeared to have been interested as it gently flowed towards my spinning orb, adding a dark blue color to it, before the attack lunged towards Ember leaving behind a trail of blue.
His dragons breath was launched at almost the sa ti as both t in the air. For a second, all colors seed to dim before an ear-deafening explosion occurred, I watched in surprise as a rift in the void opened once both attacks t and swallowed Embers dragons breath whole, another rift opened and shot it out towards him!
Ember was now facing two abnormally strong attacks, his eyes widened as I could see his body freeze in shock and disbelief, Shit! Thats too strong! I cursed, I had no doubt that if those attacks landed, Ember would not survive.
The adults must have thought the sa, since both grandfather and the multicolored dragonness made their move. Grandfathers large figure turned into a blur as it looked like he almost teleported to stand in front of Ember, he then raised a fire shield to block our attacks, while the dragonness grabbed Ember and hastily brought him away.
To no one's surprise, grandfathers shield blocked our attacks, yet It did not go unnoticed by that a small almost imperceptible crack appeared on it.
I was still in shock at the strength of that attack that I could only mumble. Cosmic mana is overpowered...
