"Okay, also I forgot to say something. Whatever happens here, don't try to heal, or even interrupt the fight, okay Anna?" Yuki specially mentioned Anna's name, because she can already tell what Anna would do if she saw Yuki getting hurt right in front of her. So, she asked Anna to not do anything while she fights the Clone of Serene.
"Okay…" Anna reluctantly agreed. She now has a bad feeling about what will happen in a few minutes.
"Good, then let's start this battle now." Yuki threw the bottle with Serene's blood in the air and activated her Skill. The bottle exploded in the air, and it soon morphs itself into Serene's figure which shocked all of the people.
"Now, I only need to control you. Fight me with all you've got. To kill me." Yuki smiled as she ordered the Blood Clone to move now.
"Are you insane! You want to fight a Clone of Serene that has the same battle prowess as her with the intent to kill?" Anna asked, after Serene explained what was about to happen, she was shocked and worried at the same time.
"Let her be, she's not going to be that reckless. Also, look at them, they don't use any real weapon, just a wooden sword." Serene said to stop Anna from interrupting the fight.
"Even so, excuse me if I'm being rude. But you are a God, you have near infinite powers, and even if the Clone is on the same level as Yuki, she is no match because there is a huge gap in experience." Anna said, but no matter what she did, Serene and Ayame refused to let her get in Yuki's way.
"Just stay put for now Anna, I just want to test something. 3.. 2… 1… Go!" Yuki yelled out as she rushed into the Clone, but she stopped when she saw the Clone not moving. She immediately felt danger on her side, she then struck the wooden sword on the ground and blocked the incoming attack of the Clone.
"This clone is very accurate. At first, I was skeptical but it looks like I was wrong, this is exactly how I would fight. Let's make it more interesting now shall we?" Serene flashed a smile, she then spoke to Yuki with a calm demeanor.
"Yuki, fight my clone with your bare hands, this way you will learn better," Serene suggested and hearing this. Yuki threw away the wooden sword, and so did the Clone.
"I haven't fought like this, I might have gotten rusty in it," Yuki said, as she clutched her fist, she saw the Clone move insanely fast and thrust her palm at Yuki's head.
"Hold on there, no need to rush things." Yuki smiled, as she caught the hand that was coming closer, she then jumped up behind the Clone and pulled her closer. Yuki retracted her arms a bit and sent out an attack towards the back of the Clone.
BOOM!
"Hahaha… I knew that this was not going to be that easy." Yuki shakes her head slowly. The Clone has easily caught her fist, and it was not even looking back, it simply caught Yuki's fist.
"But, you're also underestimating me." Seeing this as a chance, Yuki kicked to the side and hit the Clone that sent it flying.
Yuki dusted herself off for a second before coming back again to attack, she quickly dashed. She then grabbed the Clone's body, before sending it into the air, Yuki followed the Clone by jumping in the air, as she was in the air she kicked the Clone's stomach into the ground.
She followed quickly, but as she landed on the ground, Serene's Clone was already close to her. It then appeared on her left side, and the Clone did something dirty that even Ayame was ashamed of. In its hands was a handful of sand that it threw into Yuki's face to make her temporarily blind.
"I can't believe that you fight like this."
"What? Take advantage of your terrain when you are in a fight." Serene just laughed it off.
Yuki was so affected because of the sand that hit her face, and she needed to close her eyes in the end.
"YUKI!" Anna screamed when she saw that Yuki closed her eyes.
"Don't scream Anna, I'm perfectly fine." Yuki smiled, but she still had her eyes closed. She casually blocked the kick attack of the Clone with a simple flick of her foot.
"You are one dirty fighter. But I must say, it's a good plan, but it's useless against me." Yuki said coldly.
"I'm already used to fighting in the dark, this is nothing," Yuki said arrogantly as she grabbed the head of the Clone, and smashed it to the ground, but as she did that. The Clone suddenly moved its body and switched places with Yuki.
Before Yuki could hit the ground, she countered it by using her other hand as a safeguard and pushing herself using the ground. Quickly, she frees herself from the bind of the Clone and begins to exchange attacks with the Clone at a very fast pace.
But, due to the lack of experience, Yuki took the most damage of all. Blood begins to sip out of her mouth. Serene's attacks were scary, to say the least, her faint attacks, and the techniques that she uses completely outsmarted Yuki.
"I knew it, I'm nowhere near beating this thing at the first match." Yuki smiled, but soon her smile changed into a cold one. She grabbed both Serene's arms and jumped slightly to kick Serene's body down, but before she could the Clone easily defended itself by kicking Yuki's leg away.
It then grabbed Yuki's body before it could fly away and smashed her body into the ground very strongly.
"Very strong indeed. She is very good at hand-to-hand combat." Serene complimented Yuki's battle performance even though she lost, and continued.
"She just needs a few more things such as defense, and more techniques when it comes to fighting. The martial arts that she uses from Earth are good, but in a place like this, it's pretty good. She only needs to train herself better." Serene added. She then quickly went to Yuki and easily caught the incoming attack of the Clone, and killed it.
"You can take away no Anna, I'm pretty sure that you are worried. But there is no reason to be, she is fine. She is just beaten up quite a bit, there is no harm to her whatsoever." Serene said to the nervous Anna who was patiently waiting at the side.
"Thank goodness." Anna smiled beautifully when she heard that Yuki was fine, she then went up closer and began to heal Yuki's body.
"I'm still conscious, you know? You don't have to treat me like a baby." Yuki said with clear dissatisfaction in her voice.
"You are not alright." Anna flicked her forehead in annoyance.
"Anna, I hope that you can take care of my daughter. I know that she is sometimes like this, really aggressive, and doesn't care about her safety at all. But I hope that you can still stay by her side." Ayame talked in a gentle voice, she then glared at Yuki before clasping both of Anna's hands.
"I'll leave Yuki to you alright? We will leave now because we need to go back to the God Realm for some other business. I hope you can take care of yourself, and so do all of you." Ayame smiled before vanishing alongside Serene.
"I promise." Anna smiled, she then carried Yuki's body back to her room.
