" You think that something that worked once will work again? How many times are you going to create a smokescreen to try and hide from me? Don't you think you're above this yet? You fool?"
" What can I say? You seemed dumb enough."
" RYAH!"
/ SWOOSH! Thump! BOOM!/
Okay, his spells are getting bigger... That's not a good thing. A fireball the size of a car was just shot at me, not just that, but it was formed quickly. It looks like the battle really is heating up. He's not holding back anything, and I need to return the favor to him. With my Mana Blade and Holy Mana Body still active I can get to him quicker than he can get to me. I'll need to use that. I need to knock him out, not kill him.
/ Crack! Woosh!/
" !"
/ Thump!/
/ Swoosh! Boom!/
Again, a big spell the size of a car came flying at me, this time it was made of lightning. I got out of the way and began to run at Lee. I could see he wasn't happy about it, but I couldn't really care, I can dodge his spells, and since I can do that, I can get to him and cut him with Scarlet. His movements have become sluggish since I was able to cut his leg, I can only assume it's from losing blood. I think that's why he's become so aggressive with his spells.
" You!"
/ Swoosh!/
This time it was a giant boulder that came flying at me, I quickly dodged it, now I was only a few steps away. He quickly prepared himself for my sword strike with his own sword, but it shouldn't be enough, his stance isn't strong, I can break it.
/ Thump! CLANG!/
Or... Maybe I won't?
" What? Did you think it'd be as easy as getting close to me? You're not the first fool to think like that, yes, I'm good at magic, what Elf isn't!? But I'm good with the sword as well, you arrogant fool!"
" I'm guessing you're not going to find the irony in calling someone arrogant, are you?"
" Is it arrogance if it's true?"
/ Clang! Clang! Clang!/
We began to clash swords... He's mana began to grow stronger and stronger as it surrounded him. That strengthening technique of the Elves is no joke... I don't know why, but it feels like he's growing stronger with each clash of our swords. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that he's somehow continuing to strengthen himself with his mana. I don't know how he's doing it, but it's clear to see... This is bad, there's a time limit now. If I take too long, he might become too much for me to handle.
/ CLUNK!/
" AH!"
He pushed me back a good amount of space. He's already become able to overpower me with a quick explosion of his muscles. I need to start putting my foot on the gas to beat him.
" You're too annoying to let live. I'm ending this now. You should feel glad, Marquess Drake. I've yet to show this to any of Alfheim's enemies before... Until now!"
/ RUUUMMMMMBBBBBLLLLLEEEEE! CRACK! THOOOM!/
Lee began to channel his mana, and it began to shake the ground that we were on. What sounded like thunderstorms began to ring out as a giant explosion landed right where Lee was standing. Once the dust had settled, I was surprised at what I saw. Lee was standing there, without a care in the world, but there was nothing about him that was different? I was lost; this didn't make sense... I can still feel his mana... But where? I looked to my left and right, but I saw nothing... That's when I looked up and I saw them... 5 giant spheres, like big buildings, all floating in the sky, they were made of the elements that he's been using since we began to fight. Fire, Water, Earth, Wind and Lightning Magic... All in the air, it looks like each was a small city or something similar in size, they were so big that I couldn't see the sun anymore even though it was just there in the middle of the sky. Everyone who currently wasn't in a life-or-death struggle also looked up wondering where the light had gone, in a moment Lee was able to shift the day to night. Many of the soldiers on my side began to panic, Elves began to cheer... But here I was, just thinking of any method to end this sight.
