"With my mind's eye, I seek the power to control flas.
To bring it forth, manipulate it to my will and to snuff it out.
At this mont so bleak;
Claws to rip apart my enemies I seek."
By the ti she was done with her chant, the distance between her and Greed was already less than ten tres, more than close enough for the shockwaves from Greed's sword to reach her.
And just as the high demon was about to swing his sword, Faerora clenched her right fist and pulled it backwards.
The ground trembled ever so slightly, with the cast iron rods used in constructing the floors of this underground structure shooting out of the ground and wrapping themselves around Greed's arms and legs.
The short mont it took Greed to react and break out of the unexpected restraints was all Faerora needed to dash away and gain distance from the high demon.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Greed asked out as he tapped his foot on the ground, muttering a spell chant to himself as a gigantic three-ringed magic circle manifested behind him.
At first, Faerora thought this was Greed's response to the tier 3 spell she had hanging in the air, however, the mont the large earthen arm manifested itself from the ground, she instantly realised his goal.
"Burn him!
Crimson Claws!"
The three-ringed magic circles in the air glowed brightly before gigantic three-pronged constructs of flas burst out of them and shot towards Greed.
"Like I asked before, are you trying to bury us here?"
The high demon spoke as he activated his spell, causing the gigantic arm of earth to lunge towards the flaming tal blade that Faerora had hovering in the air.
Naturally, the elf wasn't stupid enough to keep it there, moving it around to avoid the earthen arm while sending half the crimson claws to shatter it into pieces.
"Rising teor."
A star-shaped column of earth erupted from the ground beneath Greed, carrying the high demon into the air with him jumping off the earthen construct the mont he was a dozen tres high.
The crimson claws smashed it to bits a beat later, turning around and chasing the airborne high demon who sucked in a breath and activated a spell.
'Sylphide's Breath.'
He breathed out slowly, with green wind streams flowing out of his mouth and swirling around into a large ball in front of him.
With a flick of his fingers, another star-shaped pillar was erected from the ground, shooting up into the air and crashing with the two crimson claws that were about to hit him.
He then summoned a third star-shaped pillar which he used as a foothold to boost himself into the air, holding his large blade over his right shoulder.
"And…strike!"
With his shout, he swung the flat side of the demonic energy-infused blade towards the large ball of concentrated wind streams, engulfing it with black flas midway as he hit it like a baseball and sent it flying towards Faerora.
Simultaneously, he used his idiosyncrasy to suck out her strength, causing her to crash on the ground mid-jump as she tried to escape the ball of swirling wind and flas.
'Wait a sec? Aren't I the one destroying the place now?'
Just as Greed asked himself that question, his hair stood on end as a large pillar of flas shot into the air, hitting the ceiling and boring a hole through it.
As gravity pulled him back to the ground, he looked down at the large flaming sword which was the base of the flaming pillar, with a single thought coming to his mind.
'Well, I'll be damned.'
The next second, the giant tallic blade of flas slashed down towards the falling high demon, crashing on him at the exact sa mont that his baseball of concentrated wind streams slamd into the elf's body.
***KAABOOOOOMMM!!!!!
A large earth-shaking explosion rang out, as the two attacks simultaneously hit their marks.
Naturally, there was no way that the underground structure that would have collapsed with just one attack, was going to survive two.
In fact, the underground structure wasn't the only thing affected.
The ground on the surface cracked open and shattered, caving in under the feet of the unfortunate beings standing above it as a landslide devastated everything within a kilotre radius of the underground structure's location.
Buildings crumbled to dust, bodies of demonic hand mbers, both alive and dead were squashed to paste, and the debris flowed down into the large sinkhole that was at the centre of this artificial disaster.
About two kilotres away from this sinkhole, a blonde-haired girl heaved a sigh as she watched the large cloud of smoke that rose up into the air while she patted the fur of the black cat in her arms.
"Thanks for the warning, Kuro."
The cat only purred and readjusted its position in her arms, a small smile coming to Eliza's face as she gazed at the adorable creature.
[ too!!]
The energetic voice of the great lightning spirit with her rang out as she transford into a cat with her body transformation skill and jumped into Eliza's embrace too.
It was a nice scene to look at; a beautiful girl playing with two adorable cats, if only you ignored the bloodstains on her shoes and the corpses on the floor around her.
'If soone told the '' of two years ago that I'd end up killing more than a hundred people in a day, I would have smacked them with my staff.'
She chuckled to herself as she placed the two cats on her lap before fishing out a stamina potion from the pouch on her waist, her expression darkening montarily as she saw that more than half the bottles in her pouch had broken.
"With all that running, rolling and jumping around I did, it'd be weirder if so didn't break. Luckily, there are still stamina and magic potions.
I don't need health potions as I can just heal my own wounds myself after recovering my magic power."
