Point-of-View: Satan
———————————————————————————
"It’s ti for the third quarter-final match, it’s the Demon Lord Satan vs the Fairy Elder Tania! We saw an upset in the previous match with the Demon Aratron defeated by Ilex Sarralot, are we in for any further surprises in the competition?"
"He has so nerve...," I chuckled in amusent, as I stepped onto the arena.
"You aren’t going to go easy on , are you?" Responded my opponent with a wry smile.
"No, I will not. Your Spellcasting cannot be taken lightly, consider it a show of respect," I replied, as the barrier ford around us.
"Well, I’m honored. But that also makes less confident in my chances here...oh, well, I suppose there’s nothing I can do about it but give it my absolute best," She sighed wistfully.
"Here’s the countdown! Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven! Six! Five! Four! Three! TWO!!! ONE!!! ZEROOOO!!!!!"
My opponent was quick to act as the countdown ended, flying up and unleashing a barrage of wind-enhanced fireballs towards .
I spread out my wings and took off into the air, evading the incoming fireballs and starting to fly towards her, before she swiftly unleashed an explosion of steam around herself, obscuring her from my vision...Fairies rarely grow to more than fifteen inches tall, and she appears to be around twelve inches or so.
With how small she is, it is much easier to lose sight of her than opponents of any other races, so this steam cloud is a highly effective move. I need to keep an eye out, her next attack could co from any direction...
Suddenly, a large boulder ca shooting up towards from below, I swiftly flew back to evade it, before my eyes widened in surprise as it burst into a thick, dusty cloud of black smoke, I let out a slight cough as I inhaled so of it, grimacing...I see, she cast an Enchantnt onto it.
I then let out a stifled hiss as I felt a sharp pain across my left leg, looking down to see an earth projectile lodged into my calf...if she’d used fire or lightning, the glow would have let see it coming, but since earth projectiles are dark, they’re harder to spot amidst all this smoke.
However, while my vision is obscured, so is hers, she cannot see . Otherwise, she likely would have aid for a more vital spot...I then noticed a couple more earth projectiles shooting past , one grazing my hip and the other missing entirely.
I then flew off to my left, erging from the cloud of smoke and regaining visibility, looking around for my opponent before I spotted her down on the arena floor, her arms raised towards with a gleam in her eyes...
"Gotcha," She smirked, as an imnse force suddenly hit my entire body, sending shooting up at a rapid speed, my back slamming onto the ceiling of the barrier with a jarring impact.
I-I see, while she was firing her earth projectiles at in the smoke, she was simultaneously charging up a Wind Spell...her Spellcasting ability truly is impressive.
She then unleashed an intense burst of flas, which intensified as they mixed with the streaks of wind from her previous attack, which sped up the flas as the ca fiercely roaring up towards .
I swiftly swung my hands towards each other, clapping my palms together while simultaneously using my Magnify Impact ability, magnifying the force of my clap tenfold and unleashing a powerful shockwave, sending the flas shooting back down towards my opponent.
Her eyes widened in alarm before she quickly ford a do of swirling water around herself, a hiss of steam ringing out as the flas collided against it, before I rapidly swooped down at top speed, slamming my feet onto the ground in front of her and using Magnify Impact again, triggering another shockwave as the tiles on the arena floor shattered to pieces, knocking my opponent off-balance as she scrambled to try and regain her bearings.
But it was too late, I had no intention of giving her the opportunity to do so...I then took aim at her and fired off a rapid Obliteration beam, which shot towards her with imnse speed as she ford walls of earth in front of herself, which all instantly got vaporized by my beam, before starting to engulf her, triggering the barrier and teleporting her out before she could get wiped out by my attack.
"And after an aggressive, relentlessly attacking start, Tania is overwheld in a matter of seconds by the Demon Lord, who gave us a glimpse of his fearso power!" The announcer’s voice rang out enthusiastically, as the crowd erupted into raucous cheers.
"Well, that was disappointing...I was just starting to think that I might actually stand a chance, too. If my flas had reached you at the end, I’d planned on unleashing a barrage of powerful Spells at you while you were still pinned to the top of the barrier," She sighed, as I walked off the arena.
"You put up an impressive fight, had you imdiately attacked with fire or lightning instead of wind when I erged from the smoke cloud, I would have had a more difficult ti countering," I replied, as I stretched my arms up.
"I didn’t use fire or lightning because the glow would’ve given it away. Maybe I should’ve added so sharp earth and ice shards to the wind," She mused thoughtfully.
I see, she likely constantly thinks of new ways to improve and enhance her Spellcasting...I must say, this tournant has been very encouraging, the number of capable allies here in Arcadia has turned out to be more than I’d thought...
