EPISODE 18:EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES PART III: CIELLA'S TRAINING COMMENCES PART I:SIGILS; THE BASICS

Concordia and Mitsuki stared at Saito's party in shock. They'd never expected them to be able to nullify Mitsuki's abilities.

"What now Saito?" Keiran asked.

"It would be folly to attempt to take Concordia's party down in close quarters combat. Concordia is able to match San's physical ability and San's strength is pretty monstrous, almost bordering on freaky, even for Dream Knights. Mitsuki's abilities should ordinarily make her vulnerable in one on one battles but if Uncle Prince and Aunt Ai purposely sealed away vast reserves of her power, I doubt they'd leave her vulnerable. I'm quite certain they got her to hone her hand to hand combat abilities. If that's the case, Mitsuki wouldn't be vulnerable even in close quarters combat" Saito analysed the situation. "It would be best to wear down their stamina with elemental attacks" Saito suggested.

"So the 'Lion' fighting style it is then" Keiran said as he stretched his hand forward.

"KRAKEN ANDROMEDA! PORCUPINE DEFENSE MODE!" Concordia called as countless arrows materialised around herself and Mitsuki.

They were not too soon for in the next instant, their defense was engulfed in the torrential flame stream flowing from Keiran's palms.

"It's at times like this that it really sucks when Arlene's not on our team" Concordia complained.

"Arlene! Any tips for us too?" Concordia asked.

"I thought you said that was unfair" Arlene said with a sarcastic grin.

"You don't have to tell us what to do. Just give us a clue like you did with the other team" Concordia said.

"So you basically admit that you're losing to them" Arlene chuckled and sighed. "Fine. I guess it's only fair" Arlene said.

"Hey! Whose side are you on anyway?!" Keiran roared.

"I'm not really on anyone's side. However, I will admit that I am a bit interested in seeing how each side will overcome the obstacles in their path. You can call it one of the eccentricities of being an information specialist" Arlene said with a smirk.

"She just turned dark" Concordia and Mitsuki stared at Arlene with weird expressions on their faces.

"About that clue" Concordia asked.

"Two simple words, 'Black Holes'" Arlene said.

"The hell is that supposed to mean?!" Concordia roared angrily.

"Exactly what I said" Keiran said with a smug look on his face.

"Mitsuki might get it. It may or may not be useful advice, like I said earlier" Arlene said.

"Black Holes?" Mitsuki thought deeply and smiled.

"Thanks Arlene, I think I get it" Mitsuki said as Arlene continued to analyse the data flowing into Christopher.

"I'm going to up the torrential force of my technique by a bit" Mitsuki warned Concordia.

Concordia's arrows had begun to melt under the intense heat. Mitsuki stretched her hand forward.

"TORRENTIAL PUSH OF THE MOON'S GRAVITATIONAL FORCE VER. BLACK HOLE!" Mitsuki roared.

All the flames flowing from Keiran's hands were weighed to the ground. Fortunately, because of the iron panels that covered the ground, they didn't start a fire. Concordia's defense wall parted to reveal Mitsuki and herself.

"You weighed my flames down with gravity?" Keiran seemed surprised.

Mitsuki smirked.

"Black holes have the power to strip stars off the burning gases that sustain them. They are also powerful enough to absorb light rays through their torrential gravitational pull. You know what that means don't you Keiran? Elemental attacks are now useless against us" Mitsuki said seriously.
