Bang!!!
Talia was quick to realize that both Grayson and Cassian had been eliminated, which ant the next target for the War God Mage Academy remaining mages would be her, imdiately she floated backward, trying to retreat toward Serena Marq’s position.
But at that mont, Endrick turned to face her with a smile.
Swoosh!
A green flash cut through the air, in that sa split second she decided to retreat, though the attack had co quite unexpectedly; however she had been able to react on instinct and shifted aside, just enough for a bolt from Endrick’s crossbow to whistle past her face.
“Hey!, It’s no longer fun if you don’t chase , you know, the plan was always for you to chase around, that way I get to keep you distracted so you couldn’t support your teammates, because it the captain has deed you a problem when your skills are linked with your teammates own... but alone, you’re just a bigger prey that can be hunted.” Endrick explained, with his words stunning Talia Frost further.
Ever since their fight began, Endrick had acted like a scaredy-cat. He’d done nothing but run, never even turning back to take a shot, and now that she thought about it, she realized she’d fumbled—badly.
He’d been slipping through every corner of the battlefield, always staying out of the main clashes, dragging her along and keeping her occupied the whole ti.
And Endrick didn’t look like the kind of marksman who was too timid to fire even once, with what he said the truth hit her clearly now, She’d been played.
“It seems your team did their research, but just so you know—I’ll make sure to eliminate you before I go down to your two friends." Talia said, her eyes narrowing, as she had already noticed both Pale and Knight moving in and boxing her in so kind of a triangle lock.
“Them?” Endrick chuckled.
“Oh no, no—they’re not here to help , they’re here to watch, because they couldn’t get too close to the captain; as he’s excited, and the shockwaves from his attacks are about to get wild, so I’m a better option .”
He slid his left hand under the stock of his massive crossbow and pushed it back into its position behind him, right now he was wearing a sly smile as he stared her down.
“So let’s do this again, shall we? Round two.”
Seeing him act so confident annoyed her, as she snapped her left hand forward, and three rune-blades tore through the air toward Endrick’s position.
This ti, he didn’t dash, evade, or run, he sprang upward, and before his boots could even touch the ground again, a massive root burst from beneath him, thrusting him into the air.
He bent along the rising wood in a low, skating-like stance, riding the lift as thorny roots erupted from the earth below.
It didn’t change Talia’s mind, that he was now serious about coming for her, as she has always felt there was no reason to hold back on her end.
She pushed more mana she directed into her discs, as the circular rune-disks, with blades jutting out from their edges—spun faster, heavier, and shot toward him like saws.
But before they could close the distance, Endrick drove both hands forward and clapped them together.
In the next instant, the thick branches of the thorn-root carrying him snapped free, as if yanked by an unseen force, and hurled themselves into the air to intercept her rune-disks.
Boom!
A loud explosion erupted where the Qi reinforced wooden stakes and rune-blades collided.
