Tik offered a devilish chuckle as Alek sliced through his blue orb, dispelling the shadowy veil around them.
As the orb cracked in half, Tik released all of his energy, creating hundreds of flames with steel wrapped around them, shooting towards Alek. Despite his off-balance stance from putting all his might into the swing, Alek braced for the impact of the fiery strike. Simultaneously, Rustifard summoned an attack.
"Divine Water Torrent!" Rustifard exclaimed.
The geyser crashed into Alek, and two metal spikes pierced his leg and shoulder before he was pushed out of the way, skidding along the sand. The sand became soaked in his blood as he struggled to regain his feet. Summoning fire around his free hand, he tried to burn off the wound.
