"Yah! Hiyah!" The wizard laughed in evil joy as he struck down any foe in his path. One by one the foolish Mobians would attack him in hopes to defeat him, but would fall at the power of the current king.
"You all think you can take me? I'm unstoppable! A true Titan of power!" He continued to fuel his own ego as he put down the attackers that were nearly half his size.

His combat involved not only his magical scepter, but his massive size and physical attacks as well. He used his claw arm for sharp blows and battering attacks, as well as his normal fist for surprisingly diverse and fluid techniques. He wasn't a typical trained combatant, but he damn sure knew how to scrap when the time came.

"Take him down!" One of the higher ranking Acorn guards shouted to his men, as a cluster of them attacked him at once. One of them had jumped to take his back and wrapped an electrical guard spear around his neck in a choke hold, while two of them attempted to push him to the ground from the front. Another even grabbed hold of the scepter in his hands and tried to get any leverage possible to yank it from his grasp.

"Get off of me!" Naugus shouted, grabbing for the one on his back first. He tried to reach his arm as far as he could to his back, but due to the thickness of the wizard, his arm would not bend far enough back. The guard atop Naugus continued to apply pressure to his windpipe with the staff, but was not getting any luckier.

"How dare you all betray me! You are my men! My loyal army! You serve this bloody crown!" He yelled, starting to feel the pressure from the small team of the Royal navy.
"We serve Maximillian, and the blood name of—"

"Blood name of Acorn, yada-yada-yada. Yes I get it! God, if I have to hear that one more time!" The wizard cut the soldier off, finally having enough of their buffoonery. With his large boot, he kicked the two of them off from pushing him further. He then used his magical staff to send the guard who's hand was on it to a random dimension. And lastly, he swung himself forward in a knelt stance, throwing off the one that had his back.
"Irritating worms!" He insulted the downed men, shrugging off some of the dirt from his shoulders.

"Naugus!" The evil wizard then heard a voice all too familiar. He froze in place for a brief moment while he stared forward, immediately recognizing that the violent voice came from behind. He loosened his muscles from the last scrap with the Royal guards, and turned to face the young man who called him out.

Elias Acorn stood firm to the ground with his sword held before him with both hands. He didn't just look angry, he looked confident. Seeing that the boy returned caused Naugus great frustration alone, but seeing him with that ridiculous look of confidence on his face that Maximilian often had? It almost pissed him off at the idea of Elias believing he could actually win a battle against him.

"So, you've returned with a little rebellion of your own.. how sweet." Naugus laughed, though he knew just how much of a difference it made in their current battle. "But you're too late, young fool! Any moment now the Iron Queen will reach her full power, and all of Mobius will again be ruled by darkness!" He continued to boast with his villainous grin.

"No, not this time. I will take you down, here and now! And I will take back that crown and restore peace to the people!" Elias took another step forward, the look of determination on his face hardening with grit.
"Even if you were to defeat me, boy—you can't stop the Iron Queen! You're a mere mortal—fueled by the power of friendship or unity or whatever useless malarkey you idiotic mortals use for inspiration!" He laughed in the face of his sworn enemy. "This will not end in your favor. I will kill you where you stand and you will have gained nothing from it!" Naugus too squared his feet even with Elias, aiming the Diamond of his scepter right at the King.
