The Arks

A barrage of darkness was currently heading for Raiyen, who seemed confident instead of fearful. The same could be unsaid for Mavislin as she was frightened at the situation before her. Had he lost control?

The Time Mage further widened the gap. Something was appearing from within the rift. It was strenuous to make out, but the Elemental Energy conveyed her everything she needed to know.

"This is an out of the world idea, then again, you guys are not from this world. However, crazy must be fought with the crazy. So, here it goes," said Raiyen, gasping sharply.

With a simple jerk, he had managed to fully pull out what was from the rift.

"Something from my past; her future. Something that defines a person who had loved more than me, lost more than me and experienced more than me. This is what I obtained from her. She is my hero..."

Baldwin"s attack was then met with a spell-like nothing they had ever witnessed or felt before. That wasn"t possible. He was pulling out a spell from Mavislin"s future. That Elemental Energy could purely be of the Valkyrie"s.

Sure, all of the Founders are equipped with different Elements. Some of them use similar Elements as well, like Mavislin"s Water and Z"s Ice. But every one of them has a unique Elemental Energy of their own. No one could fully imitate that, even if they had Void"s Emergence. Not even someone as powerful as the Headmaster could accomplish that.

"Roar, O" wind of Thunder and Lightning. Fan of steel, flames of perdition. Black Wave Hibiscus!" boomed Raiyen.

A flower appeared in front of the attack, towering before his opponent. Raiyen"s eyes held bravery as he braced the impact head-on, dauntless of the enemy he faced. A true face of a combatant, an Aura of a fighter.

"Don"t underestimate me!" shouted Raiyen, kicking the spears back to where they had derived from.

The shield dispelled, along with the rift. Baldwin was promptly met with the flurry of attacks fueled by his powers. Despite the enhanced power of the attack being brought back, it did not unnerve any of them.

Raiyen subsequently dropped his daggers. Baldwin roared fully deflecting the attack, the spears scattered across the playing field.

"Did I ever mention that I was a Triple Element Holder?" asked Raiyen, grinning.

"So what?"

"So, Holy Trinity," said Raiyen, who was as cool as a cuc.u.mber.

That one special technique, that one move. A landmark to govern a Triplet Holder Mage. Some say one utter of the spell"s name could topple down empires.

Others say the spell could even destroy the ranks of Penta Holder Mages. And this young Time Mage was about to pull it off.

"Time! Electric! Nature! These are the elements I wield, I command. Come forth, bind yourselves and become one. Voltaic Creation Era!"

With that, Baldwin was swallowed by the torrent of light, hailing from Raiyen"s palm. He didn"t need his twin daggers at all. Those alone could destroy continents if used at maximum force. As Baldwin fell onto his knees, Raiyen collapsed.

"Time Boy!" yelled Mavislin, trying to catch him.

Her wound had healed on the surface but it was still harrowing to deal with.

"Sorry, boy. You would require a whole lot more to defeat me," said Baldwin, smiling.

He seemed impervious to all of Raiyen"s attempts to overpower him. It was as if he had scarcely launched the battle. Even his Element Energy has been stagnant since the beginning.

Mavislin"s eyes widened as she tried waking Raiyen up. She slowly stood up and faced the Angry Man once again. The pain had gone there but one wrong move is enough to annihilate her.

"Hence, it"s your turn?" asked Baldwin, pointing the staff towards Mavislin.

This isn"t going to be pretty, thought Mavislin. She summoned her flaming whip once more, trying to engage in another round. But was interrupted by a stubborn Time Mage.

"You"ve got no strength left!" protested Mavislin.

"I"m a Time Boy. I can constantly utilize my power to my benefits," replied Raiyen, standing tall once more.

Baldwin raised his staff once more as a barrage of spears rained down on the Time Mage.

"Radiant Storm!" chanted Raiyen, hands up in the skies.

Unlike the years before, this spell had grown drastically. It was terrifying to see the clouds shake and vibrate violently with b.a.l.l.s of lightning dancing around the atmosphere.

"Requiem of the Dead," mumbled Baldwin.

Within a split second, the staff was immersed in pure Dark Aura, as well as the s.p.a.ce around Baldwin. Streams of that Element appeared, in an attempt to influence the kids.

All that has been touched by the streams were decayed. If the partners allowed themselves to be in contact with those, it would result in fatality.
