Running through the woods, Elyenora and Mon’Ter moved in different patterns, hoping to lose their pursuers in doing so.
“Ely... Two of them... are getting close...” Mon’Ter murmured, warning the princess who was running right beside him.
“What? Already?” The surprise was evident on her face, speed was the one thing that she was confident in, to have them catch up this quick really showed her how dire this situation had gotten.
Moments later, a big wave of fire fell down from the sky in front of them, creating a giant wall of flames which reached as high as twenty meters in the air. This sudden obstacle forced them to promptly stop their advance.
The enemy, had reached them.
‘To get caught so quickly...’ Elyenora thought as she gazed at the fires. ‘This simply won’t go our way, will it?’
Turning around, she scanned the area to find wher
After having dodged the enemy’s raging blue fire balls, Elyenora couldn’t hold herself within the air for any longer and thus started falling down towards the ground.Within that instant, the explosions sounded from below and she took haste in using them to her advantage.With her rapier, Elyenora collected the powerful gales caused by the eruptions and used them to lighten her fall, landing right atop the branch of a tree which was a bit farther away. She was still keeping the powerful winds within her sword for later use, making sure to not lose that buff in strength.The princess then glanced to where Mon’Ter was, around the area where the weaker assassins had gathered, and she promptly grinned, ‘Seems like Mon’Ter is still a wild card to them, they’re sure in for more surprises.’The fact that Mon’Ter was travelling along with Elyenora, is something no one knew about, not ev
‘She is the important person...?’ Mon’Ter thought whilst gazing at the woman called Lioness, she wore some flashy clothing similar to the ones he currently wore, in that same manner at least.In one of her hands, she held a saber that seemed to be made of solid gold, quite the extravagant blade to say the least.The scene was filled with tension, with Mon’Ter and Elyenora facing off against Blaze, Lioness and Fiend.Arrow however, was still standing still while being held captive by Mon’Ter’s claws.Upon seeing this, Blaze suddenly piped up. “Hey, Arrow! What the hell are you doing? Get back over here!” He shouted, trying to get the man’s attention.Yet despite his attempts at conversation, Arrow didn’t give back any sort of reaction, simply standing there with his eyes opened widely as if he’d seen death itself.“Arr
With a forest fire raging on nearby, expanding more and more while threatening to burn down the entire woods. Both Elyenora and Mon’Ter rushed at their individual enemies along with them, as if in complete sync with each other, they all sent out a strike.Elyenora swung her rapier, smashing its edge right into Lioness’ golden saber and causing a powerful shockwave of gales to erupt from her blade.While Mon’Ter attacked with his elongated claws, going straight for Cazimir’s neck in an attempt to end him quickly, yet despite his best tries, the one nicknamed Fiend had stopped his claws with an invisible entity that he held in both hands.It was a relatively long weapon, like a spear but different, his hand posture was more so pointing the pole part of it upwards, rather than right towards where Mon’Ter’s claws had been stopped.“Weird...” Mon’Ter mumbled, unsure of how to feel ab
Mon’Ter gazed at the bright light which the dragon’s maw emitted, knowing full well what that entailed.It was about to use its breath attack, and with the size at which it was, that action would only lead to mass devastation.‘Damn...!’ Mon’Ter tried to evade, however it was too late for him to do anything of the like.With a loud roar, the dragon engulfed Mon’Ter with its brilliant flames, spreading them around the whole vicinity like a burning flood.He had braced himself for the impact, he had made sure to protect himself from it as best as he could, entering a sort of turtle-like position with his arm and legs.He even went as far as to prepare a counter attack with his own fire breath, charging it within his throat.Yet, when it came to the impact itself, another shock overwhelmed the monster with an even greater surprise.The flames.
Mon’Ter struggled to catch his breath, working on steadying it while pinpointing Cazimir’s location.‘In order to win... I can’t stop sensing out his location for even a single moment... To do so at full speed would be rather difficult but... I’ll just have to do it anyway,’ Mon’Ter thought in his mind, still plagued by the sensation that tingled his brain.The enemy he faced this time was powerful, perhaps stronger than himself even. Cazimir was able to slip out of Mon’Ter’s natural senses and escape into obscurity, forcing the monster to pinpoint his location with his strongest, radar like sense.‘I must surprise him with my next strike to seize the momentum!’ Mon’Ter concluded in his mind, deciding on how exactly he’d strike at him. ‘I don’t believe he knows of the range at which I can find him, if I rush at him now and attack in a different way..
The glow in Cazimir’s eyes intensified. In the next moment, there were five hydra-like heads popping out of thin air on his sides, with one standing right above him. The heads all opened their maws and began to charge an electric based attack that sent powerful danger signals to Mon’Ter’s senses.‘I need to move...’ urgency sprang Mon’Ter’s body into action. Even if it was truly tired to a point of break down, his body still acted on its own and began to move in order to assure his survival.“Dodge,” Cazimir murmured with a smirk. He watched as the lightning shot out of his magical creations and zoomed through the air towards Mon’Ter.The monster was barely capable of evading the strikes of lightning, moving his body in such a way that he’d been able to simply let the electricity pass by him with a small margin. Enough to not zap him into paralysis.His legs th
What had managed to cause such a change in Elyenora? What was the Hymn of the Abyss? Had she truly been pushed so far that she’d entered such a state? What kind of state was it even?To figure that out, we must know of what happened earlier on, during her battle with Lioness, the female assassin.In the moment that Mon’Ter had dashed away from the original battlegrounds together with Cazimir, and Blaze had gone to do his own thing due to being denied partaking in combat. Elyenora had simply continued her face of with the fearsome Lioness. There was nothing out of place here.The two women glided their blades over one another and swapped their places, sliding away from each other while turning around and brandishing their blades. Elyenora held her renowned blade, the famed ‘Silent Wind’ rapier. While the Lioness held her own saber, one that was seemingly made from solid gold.“You’re good, b
Alinesia’s every step made the air around her burn, Elyenora could feel the heat waves hit against her soft cheeks as she stared down at her opponent. The flaming avatar was imposing, however she had faith for victory still.Elyenora began using all of the wind at her disposal in a futile attempt to alleviate the scorching presence of Alinesia, the winds spiraled around her frame at increasing speeds. She moved her rapier to her chest area and pulled back, ready to thrust forth at a moment’s notice.The assassin smirked, then without a hint of hesitation dashed towards the princess at an accelerated pace. Elyenora could barely tell when the burning blade had begun to descend upon her, aiming towards her shoulder.The princess parried the strike and moved to the side, she instantly started sweating and losing moisture both in her mouth and on her skin, the sweat which appeared would instantly evaporate as it formed.<
