My Beginning After the End Termination

Death Match

I felt my breathes steadying as I calmed myself, I just fought angrily, I can't do that, I have to fight smart and calm, it'll be easier to kill him again that way. With Regis controlling the aether and destruction lighting up my sword, I'll just focus on my foot work.

The hint that there is something hidden in my mind, a new skill with aether, it was there, I just couldn't feel it yet, not completely. "Cadell." I said his name, slowly approaching him. "I'm happy to continue this fight."

I god stepped into him, my blade flashed across my face towards his head, he back stepped, I god stepped again and again, attacking him from everything angle, trying to deal damage to his large body.

I landed, my blade went into his thigh, then I god stepped into the air, brought my sword down on his shoulder, but he side stepped the blow and brought his sword to my throat. I parried it, sent a kick towards his stomach, but he swatted it to the side.

Both of us fully healed, it was like the fight had truly begun.

I dodged a spike, deflected another, then god stepped away, then back into him, sending my sword towards his chest. He brought his blade forward, blocking the strike, then sent a kick forward towards my ribs.

I side stepped it, conjured wind around my body, and used it to move further away faster. I didn't want to overuse god step, for some reason, I felt like after he dies, someone else is going to come, or I was going to have to go somewhere else.

Before I got teleported, everyone else got teleported, so something is up, I just don't know what. I needed to kill Cadell first though, and that is going to be tough, he is strong, maybe one of the strongest asuras I've fought in a while besides Kezess.

I shot wind out of my feet, launching myself at Cadell, bringing my sword up to his face, but god stepped around him as he brought his sword up to defend himself. My blade connected with his ribs, then I god stepped around him, swinging my sword at him again as I appeared on the other side of him.

He blocked my strike, conjured a storm of black spikes at me, but I god stepped over and over again, using wind magic instead when I could, avoiding each blow as I got further away from him, being forced backwards.

I spun around, facing him again and the wave of black spikes, and instead of running away, I shot into them, using wind magic and god step to direct my movements around them. I kept my eyes locked on the vritra, and as he continued to conjure spells, all he did was stand there and watch, letting me get closer and closer to him.

I shot around the last spike and jumped into the air, bringing my sword down on him, the flames of destruction sank into his void blade, shattering it as the force of my attack overtook his defense. 

As his blade shattered, my blade entered his shoulder as he avoided it hitting him in the face, but I still dealt a severe blow as it sank deeper and deeper into his flesh. The flames entered his body, and as he became smoke, I used wind to redirect his form to stay with the flames, keeping him in one place.

"Not this time." I said, smiling as the flames stayed on him as he reformed, then deformed again, trying to get them off him. He shot at me in his smoke form, forming and knocking me down, but I god stepped away before he could do anything.

However, it gave him enough time to become gas and get the destruction out and off his body, but I could tell it did some major damage to his insides and flesh. They weren't healing like last time, and a thought came to mind.

He was using aether, and he made it seem as if aether, or fate, was against me. If that was the case, wouldn't I not be allowed to use my aether abilities, couldn't they cut them off or something, or maybe they can't, and want them back, I don't know.
