The match timer rang indicating that the preparation time is done. Kaito stood up his seat and went ahead of Kairi. After exiting the door, he arrived in front of the Battle Arena, Bernard was in the middle while Leo and Jake is on the other side. Both of the enemy pair looked at Kaito as if he was some kind of slug. Kairi emerged from the same door Kaito had used. She then walked towards Kaito, with a firm face.
"She have a plan in mind, I guess" Kaito told himself as he stared at her. When Jake noticed Kaito staring at Kairi, his blood boiled. He wanted to pummel this commoner right this instant. But if he wins this match, he can ask Kairi a favor that she has to do. This calmed Jake.
"Does any of you have to say to the other?" Bernard asked.
"I have" Jake said as he raised his hand.
"Make it quick" Bernard said then vanished from thin air.
Jake then walked towards Kairi, he then shot an angry glance at Kaito before talking to Kairi.
"So have you made your mind?" Jake asked curiously.
"Yes, and I will accept" Kairi said firmly.
"Then let's make our vows" Jake said grinning.
The two of them then said their vows. A light from the skies came then illuminated the two of them. This signs their contract, whoever disobeyed this vow shall be known as a sinner, thus can be killed by anyone. A sinner is lower than a commoner.
After their vows, Kairi and Jake returned to their respective sides.
"Let the match, Begin!" Bernard said as he re-appeared from where he vanished.
Jake dashed forward while chanting magic, Leo was also chanting magic, Long range magic.
"So this is their plan" Kaito told himself.
Kairi started running sideways, chanting her own magic.
Jake finished chanting, a flaming sword appeared in his right hand. A large earthen spear has appeared at Leo's front. Leo didn't attack but continued to chant another spell. Jake then aimed his sword at Kairi, the flames on Jake's flame began to rampage then released fireballs at Kairi. Kairi also managed to finish her spell, a large blockade of Ice emerged, it was large enough to cover half of the entire stadium. The fireballs hit Kairi's Ice wall, but it doesn't seem to be melting. Jake then continued to chant magic.
"Is she buying time to chant a large-scale magic?" Kaito thought.
"She's taking a risk, if Jake and Leo failed to block her attack, it will become lethal. Considering the rules, she'll be disqualified". Kaito was wondering what Kairi's plan was and decided to continue watching the match as no one was paying attention to him, even his enemies. As Kairi was chanting, Leo finished his spell, multiple earthen rocks appeared from the sky, unlike his previous move before, he used this rocks to attack the ice wall. After the bombarding, cracks can be seen at the ice wall. Veronica slightly got more concerned about Kairi, and more angry at Kaito as he was doing nothing but to watch. This also annoyed Jake as Kaito was relying on Kairi to win this match. When Jake finished chanting, a large fireball appeared then went right to Kairi's wall. There was a large blast, steam can be seen as Kairi's ice was already melting.
"Come out already" Jake taunted as he raised his sword. From the ice, raging flames came, this flames were deadly if not handled properly. Bernard was going to stop the flames at it endangers the life of Jake and Leo and of course, Kaito, who is on the other side. But he was surprised as he saw Jake take a tattered piece of paper. Kairi knew this. This was the scroll that was designed to take magic. But now, this scroll currently has magic on it. Jake released the seal on the scroll, a large stream of water collided with the fire and produced a lot of steam.
"Now" Jake shouted at Leo.
Leo had been charging the earthen spear with wind magic, making it a lot faster. He then thrusted the spear at Kairi's location. The spear was too fast it reached Kairi in an instant. As she was about to get hit, a figure came and pushed Kairi away alongside himself. The spear was not pointed so it was only supposed to break Kairi's bones, not to kill her, that is why Bernard didn't stop the spear at the first place.
"If you want to win this match, you should at least protect yourself" Kaito told Kairi as he braced himself.
"Th-Thank you" Kairi said. She never thought Kaito would help her after all he said.
"Fucking Commoner" Jake cursed at Kaito. He then faced Leo.
"Take care of the commoner, Leo! , I'll deal with Kairi myself" Jake said angrily.
"U-Undstood" Leo replied.
"Sorry but it's your fault for saving her" Leo thought about Kaito.
Jake bit his finger and poured his blood on his sword. The sword then moved crazily, Jake gripped it more harder.
"I will release you temporarily, in exchange, help me disarm her" Jake told his sword.
"What is he doing?" one of the spectators asked.
Veronica became very worried, not everybody knows, but that sword is not an elemental one, it's a sacred sword. A sacred sword is forged by a body of a sacred beast. As for Jake's case, it was the sacred beast, Phoenix. Even though his sword in not the real one, it still inherits a portion of the original's strength. "Be careful" Veronica prayed for Kairi's safety.
Jake smiled. "You asked for this!"
