""START!""
Raye, Lycus, and Devin shouted in unison, starting their match!
And as soon as it started—
BAM!
WHOOSH—
They all kicked off the ground and dashed forward!
The three of them were going to et in the middle!
Tap—
Raye reached the middle a second faster than the other two.
And with his feet safely planted on the ground—
SWOOSH—
He swung [Nyx] horizontally, straight from his left to right!
"Urgh...!"
"...!"
Devin and Lycus frowned, seeing that!
'Ugh, he's annoyingly fast!'
They exclaid in their heads, cursing Raye's speed!
Bam—
Lycus and Devin used their left foot as an anchor to forcefully stop their advance!
And with that—
SWISH—
They both crouched down to avoid Raye's attack!
Then, as a counter—
Fwip—
Lycus held the dagger in his right hand in a saber grip—
Fwish—
And thrust it forward, aiming at Raye's stomach!
'Always quick with the response, Lycus!'
Raye said in his head.
CLANG—!
And then he parried Lycus' dagger to the side using [Celestria]!
"..."
Lycus already expected this to happen and was about to launch another attack with the dagger in his left hand.
Though—
'Don't forget about !'
FWOOSH—
Devin, who was crouching on his right side, unleashed a fierce right straight!
"?!"
Lycus' eyes widened at this, and instead of attacking Raye—
CLANK—!
He was forced to block Devin's fist!
Bam—
Lycus jumped to his left to soften the impact and get so breathing distance from the two.
Bam—
Devin jumped back too after that, leaving Raye in the middle of them!
"..."
The three silently looked at each other again.
Then—
"..."
Lycus' and Devin's gazes t!
Devin slightly tilted his head toward Raye, signaling Lycus to team up and defeat him first.
'Okay.'
And as a response, Lycus nodded his head!
'Sweet.'
Devin thought as a small smile appeared on his face.
'In our match this ti, we're allowed to use magic and skills as much as we want.'
He added.
Devin plans to pincer Raye with Lycus, and after reaching him—
'I'll use [Azure Fist]...'
Devin declared that in his head!
'Raye might have a fire resistance skill or whatever, but I bet it's not invincible.'
'Really strong or hot fire can still hurt him.'
He calmly concluded in his head.
And he was actually right about this!
Devin's [Azure Fist] was strong enough too to pierce through Raye's fire resistance!
So with that plan in mind...
Fwip—
Devin fixed his stance.
Then, with a smile on his face—
'Now!'
He exclaid that in his head and decided to dash toward Raye!
Though, before he could even lift his feet off the ground—
"[Flash]"
He suddenly heard that!
And Raye, who was originally standing a few ters away from him—
Fwish—
Appeared in front of him!
"?!"
Devin was surprised.
Fwish—
He imdiately raised his arms to cross them and block!
But before he could even fully move his arms—
"[Blaze]"
SWOOSH—
TAANG—!!
Raye's flaming black sword hit his left arm!
A loud sound of tal clashing was produced!
Crack—
Then Devin felt sothing break in his arm!
"Urgh...?!"
He groaned as his face cringed in pain.
But ignoring that—
Tap—
He strictly placed his left foot forward, near Raye!
And after twisting his body to the right—
"GRAAAAAHHH!!!"
SWOOOSH—
Devin unleashed a heavy strike with his right fist!
"[AZURE FIST!]"
He exclaid mid-attack!
SWAAAAAAAA—
And blue flas covered his right hand!
Then opening his mouth—
"TAKE THIS!!!"
Devin shouted that!
Looking at him...
'Your swing is too big. You should've considered my speed.'
Raye casually said that in his head!
Whoosh—
And then he transford [Celestria] from a sword to a beautiful gauntlet covering his left hand!
And with it—
BAANG!!!
He caught Devin's fist!
And smoothly—
Swish—
Raye redirected and used the force behind the attack, throwing Devin over his shoulder!
"Huh?"
Devin was surprised!
But before he could even process what happened—
BAM!
His back slamd onto the ground!
"KEUK...?!"
Confused, Devin groaned and frowned.
His back hurt like hell!
Then, when he opened his eyes...
Fwip—
"..."
He saw Raye's flaming sword, [Nyx], aid at his face!
"Haaaaaa..."
Devin sighed in resignation.
And with a small smile on his face...
"I lost."
He simply declared that!
"Don't use big attacks on fast opponents."
Fwish—
Raye said as he watched Devin stand up. He withdrew his sword now too.
"Got it."
Devin replied, nodding his head.
And after standing up...
Fwish— fwish—
He dusted off dirt on his shirt.
"Ugh, my left arm hurts... Raye, you idiot..."
Devin grumbled, holding his left arm.
Then after that...
"You guys have fun, I'll watch from the sidelines now."
He said that while walking away!
He was talking to Raye and Lycus, who were left to fight!
...
After Devin got to the side—
"Thanks for not attacking while I was fighting Devin."
Raye said that with a smirk, looking at Lycus.
Then with a casual shrug...
"I just let you guys fight because you two are my opponents. One of you would eliminate the other one, and the one left—They'll be tired."
Lycus muttered that, acting all smug.
"Haha, that's smart."
Fwip—
Raye complinted him while taking a fighting stance.
And opening his mouth again—
"Don't worry, though..."
"I'm not tired."
Raye declared that slyly!
He sounded really arrogant and cheeky when he said that!
'Man, I really need to learn how to annoy people from Raye. It'll definitely co in handy when I want to provoke my opponents in future.'
Devin thought to himself as he sat down on the ground, stretching his legs out to get comfortable.
Then, as he watched Raye and Lycus lock eyes...
'Anyway, I should watch carefully. If I lose focus, I might miss sothing important.'
"When these two fight, it's always fast-paced. Blink once, and you'll miss a lot of things."
Devin declared that!
His eyes glowed in anticipation!
anwhile...
"..."
Raye and Lycus just silently stared at each other.
Swoosh~

The wind blew on their faces as the atmosphere surrounding them grew heavier.
They were a few ters apart, each carefully watching the other's next move.
Then, after a few monts of silence...
BAM!
Lycus dashed toward Raye without saying a word!
