Point-of-View: Ariella Velle
———————————————————————————
Hm, how much power should I use? Blaze Ignition: Flare will put on around the sa Power Level as hers, but if I add Descent, I’ll be a fair bit more powerful.
Maybe regular Blaze Ignition and Descent? That’s pretty much the exact sa boost as using Flare on its own.
Yeah, that works, I’ll-...
"Um, could you unleash your full power? I want to see how well I can hold my own against you at your best," Called out Cleo, interrupting my train of thought.
Huh, okay, I guess that settles it.
"Sure, that’s fine by . [Blaze Ignition: Flare], [Descent]!" I chanted, before adding as my power surged, "Whenever you’re ready, co at !"
"Alright, then...!" She exclaid, wind swirling around her entire body as she shot forward, before flying up into the air and swooping down towards , firing out a powerful blast of wind at from her mouth.
I swiftly shuffled across to my left to evade it, turning my gaze across as she veered through the air. She shifted her trajectory to follow after and slashed at my chest with the blades over her right knuckles as she closed in.
I blocked the slash with my gauntlets, the blades starting to slide across them before an intense, fiery explosion burst out, sending her stumbling off to her left as the blades on her right gauntlet shattered to pieces.
She grimaced before turning across and lunging ahead, I spun around as she slipped behind , the wind surrounding her fading away.
She can only use each Skill for five seconds, and then can’t use that particular Skill against for another minute...that said, she’s got such a wide array of Skills that the cooldown hardly matters.
"!" She quickly chanted, springing back as I fired out a swirling blast of Negative Energy and crimson flas at her, unleashing an intense burst of Negative Energy from her mouth.
But my attack was more powerful than hers, overwhelming her blast and shooting towards her, though it lost a fair bit of power and montum.
She quickly crossed her arms in front of herself, grimacing as the blast slamd onto her gauntlets. Her feet skidded back across the ground upon impact, before she gritted her teeth and whipped her left arm across, firing out a rapid, slashing wave of Negative Energy.
I zipped up into the air with a swift flap of my wings, launching myself up and over the slash. As I evaded the attack, I fired out a volley of Negative Energy arrows towards her from my right hand.
As she raced across, I extended out a thorny tendril of Negative Energy from my left hand, before whipping it towards her with a sharp flick of my wrist, the tendril extending rapidly as it whizzed through the air towards her.
"!"
She ca to an abrupt halt and fired out an intense, ringing burst of sound straight at the ground, blasting herself high up into the air, grimacing as a few of my arrows grazed her, narrowly avoiding the tendril.
Nice, she did well to evade that...but since she can’t fly for prolonged periods of ti, she’s completely vulnerable up in the air, I-...
"!"
A pair of rapid, dark green beams ca shooting towards from her eyes, which I swiftly sprinted across to evade, the beams chasing after as she followed with her gaze, but couldn’t catch up.
The beams petered out as she reached her five second limit, before her eyes widened in alarm as I launched myself straight towards her with a pressurized burst of Negative Energy from below .
I drew back my fist and drove it towards her as I closed in, before she quickly swerved across to her left as I chanted...
"[Super Accel Fla Strike]!"
She grimaced as my fist struck the side of her right arm, a fiery explosion bursting out upon impact...the flas themselves have no effect since she’s got Elental Immunity, but the sheer force of the blazing eruption ripped her skin open, blood streaming down before the wound swiftly closed up.
"!" She began, before I quickly swung my tail out and slapped her with it, interrupting her chant as a small but intense fiery burst erupted from the tip of my tail.
I slipped behind her as her head jerked across to the left, before blasting her away with a concentrated Negative Energy projectile, hitting her back and sending her hurtling through the air.
She hit the barrier before plumting and crashing onto the ground, a shaky groan ringing out as she slowly got back onto her feet.
That was close...assuming her Hypersonic Screech is just as potent as a Hypersonic Bat’s screech, it definitely would’ve affected if I’d take it at close-range.
I’d recover pretty fast, but it’d still leave dazed for a few seconds, which would be all the opening she needs to deal the finishing blow.
It’s hard to believe that she doesn’t have much real experience, she’s pretty skilled. Her technique and movents are sharp, and she’s got good instincts.
She’s making good use of her Skills too...she’s got so many options, most people would probably struggle to pick the right ones under pressure, but she’s been using her options well so far.
Looks like she’s keeping her distance now, she’s realized that there’s no point in attacking at close-range. Even if she does land a hit, she’s bound to take more damage than I do, thanks to the explosive effect of Blaze Ignition.
"!" She suddenly exclaid as she shot forward, firing out a dense cloud of poison, which rapidly spread out across the space within the barrier.
She has to know that I’ve got Status Effect Immunity, which ans poison has no effect on ...either she panicked, or she’s trying to lower visibility, using this Skill as a smokescreen.
"!"
A sharp burst of wind erupted out before I spun around as she launched herself up behind , her eyes briefly widening as I t her gaze, before opening her mouth and unleashing an intense, piercing burst of wind towards my chest...
