Chapter 21: New Weapon New Powers!
Ariel and Anna started helping Ronald to train with his new gun. He named his gun Timothy after his grandfather's name. It was a silver colored gun with black outlines. Ronald filled the gun with six elemental bullets. Two were earth elemental bullets, one was water and another one was fire elemental bullets. Rest of them were ice elemental bullets. He got in his position to train and focused after clearing his mind.
Ariel threw a Kaze-kyu towards Ronald. Ronald used his earth elemental bullets to create two earth walls and stop the Kaze-kyu. He managed to stop it. Ariel didn't stop and threw two Kaze-kyu at the same time and Ronald rushed towards Ariel dodging the Kaze-kyus. Ariel summoned Alice. He got in a position but Anna chanted 'Magma Balls' and several magma balls went towards Ronald. Ronald used his other four bullets to shoot but he had only three bullets which were stronger than magma. He used both ice bullets and used the water bullet. But he got hit by a magma ball. Anna healed him with healing magic.
Then they started target training. Anna created magma balls another time and made them float on the air in a circulated way. They were moving fast. Ronald reloaded his gun with six water bullets and focused. Then he shot. He got all five but he missed one magma ball. He reloaded and shot. They continued this training for four hours.
Suddenly in the afternoon, they saw some guys coming towards them from far away. They couldn't see them until those guys came closer. They were Worn and his friends. They were looking for revenge. They entered the courtyard and stood in front of Ronald, maintaining a three meters distance.
"What's your problem huh?" Worn said to Ronald.
"I-I-I have no problem. You guys are the one who were bullying me," Ronald said and stepped back a little.
"Why are you backing down? Coward! And who were the people who helped you?" Worn said and looked at Ariel and Anna and again said," You are the one right?"
Ariel stepped forward and said," Yes, I am the guy who you are looking for."
Worn stepped back and said," You do have guts."
Ronald stepped forward and said,"Don't do-"
Ariel stopped him and said to Worn," What do you want?"
Worn said," I want revenge."
Ariel said,"Oh! That's good. Then how do you want to take revenge?"
Worn spreaded his two hands in two directions and said,"I challenge you guys for a three versus three fight."
Ariel stepped forward and said," Get ready."
Worn said," So when do you want to do the fight?"
Ariel said," That's your wish."
Worn said," Let's do it right now."
Ariel said,"You have decided the timing and therefore I shall propose two conditions for the duel."
Worn said,"Go ahead."
Ariel said," First, when we fight, we won't be allowed to take each other's life."
Worn said,"Good for you."
Ariel said,"Second, the loser must respect the winner every time they meet after the duel."
Worn said,"Isn't that a lifetime condition?"
Ariel said,"You're not wrong."
Worn said,"That's fine as you guys will be the losers."
Ariel said,"We'll see it."
Worn said," Then get ready in ten minutes. We will start the fight."
Ariel,Anna and Ronald came to one side and Worn and his friends went to another side to get prepared for the fight. Anna said,"Are you out of your mind, Ariel?"
Ariel said,"I am fit and fine."
Anna said,"Ughh….sigh….now that you have done it so I can't do anything but fight."
Ariel said," Yes, please do it."
Anna said,"You should have known we have been practicing the whole day and therefore my mana is almost finished."
Ariel said,"Regenerate some."
Anna said," I can do it. Moreover I am doing it while talking to you. But I can regenerate only some mana in ten minutes."
Ariel said," I know Anna, you can do it. You are not useless."
Anna sighed and said,"Ok. I will do it."
Then Anna sat on the ground and started chanting something. Ariel couldn't understand what she was chanting. So he looked at Ronald and said," Be confident."
Ronald said,"I-I can't."
Ariel said,"I know you can do it too."
Ronald said," B-bu-but."
Ariel said, "Stop talking and get ready."
On the other hand, Worn was also getting prepared. He had four friends there and he chose two of them named Afren and Gilbart. Ten minutes passed and they stood in the middle of the courtyard facing each other. At that time Toya appears from the backyard. He had no idea what was going on. He asked Ariel to tell him about the situation. Ariel only told him that it was a three versus three fight and asked Toya to become the observer. Toya accepted the request and became the observer of the fight. He gave a signal and the fight started.
Afren rushed to the right side and Gilbert to the left. They tried to surround and attack their opponents. Ariel, Anna and Ronald's backs touched each other's backs and they focused on their opponent.
Afren rushed to Anna and shot two fire bullets. Anna used her magical broom and went up to dodge. The bullets went towards Ariel. He took out Alice to cut the bullets. But Ronald quickly shot two water bullets towards the fire bullets.
From the behind, Gilbert shot two electric bullets towards Ronald. Ariel saw it and turned to the bullets . He used Wind Slash and cut the bullets.
But Worn shot two Ice bullets towards Ariel to freeze him and Anna saw it. She used two magma balls to destroy the bullets. She also used a magma blast towards Worn. Worn used his water and ice bullets but they couldn't damage the blast. He thought he was finished but Anna canceled the magma blast before it hit Worn.
Worn was defeated and so did his friends as Ariel pinpointed Alice on the throat of Gilbert and Ronald also did the same with Afren using Timothy. Toya declared the winners.
