As the fight continued, sweat poured down Erik's and Nathaniel's faces. Their muscles ached from the strain. They protested, but neither of the two stopped.
Each punch, kick, and swing was thrown with the will to kill and the power to do so, but neither could gain the upper hand for a long time.
Despite having multiple powers, Erik was seriously having problems due to his low mana, especially when compared to Nathaniel's amounts.
Additionally, Nathaniel's power was significantly stronger than Erik's, which allowed his enemy to fight him on equal terms, despite Erik having more than twice his attributes.
That, of course, was very prominent in Nathaniel's case, which used his force manipulation brain crystal power to gain speed and destructive might. Besides, he had a shield on his side.
Erik couldn't stop thinking about what would happen if he got his hands on it.
