BANG! BANG! BANG!
A tempest of furious strikes erupted between the two. Every clash felt almost like the end of the world, the laws of reality bending and folding until they were forcefully kept in place by the Lord Control of both of them.
An outsider looking in would feel as though they were watching the battle through a rippling mirror. Sometimes they would see Ryu and Sarriel fighting in place. But then suddenly, and inexplicably, their bodies would warp, stretching out across thousands of kilometers as though they had become the strings of Karma themselves, before snapping back into reality as whole humanoids once more.
They seemed to have completely forgotten their techniques and skills. Or maybe the battle had reached such a high-level state that it simply wasn't possible to rely on such things any longer.
