THE ENEMY'S RECOGNITION IN THE MIDDLE OF BATTLE
This magical fist would not be launched at me as a projectile because he knew it was useless to do so. Prince Spiros instead, wielded the magical fist to slam it on me like a hammer.
"Try diverting a hammer fist", Prince Spiros shouted to me.
"Swissshhhh"
But Spiros' hammering fist only struck the air.
"Where the hell did he go?" Spiros asked himself when I tapped on his back.
"Hello", I said to Spiros before hitting him with a punch that resonated with an explosive sound on his back.
"Bully's Backstab" "Drums of Kradesh"
"Argghhhhh"
Spiros screamed as he was thrown to the other end of the magic arena with my magical punch.
However, Spiros wasn't much hurt by the punch.
"Your punch merely tickles me", Spiros screamed toward me.
"I believe that Diamond back Bion said the same thing shortly before he was ass pierced and dead", I replied to him.
Spiros was extremely tough but even he had to admit that Prince Bion's Diamond back was tough to crack open.
Spiros shot toward me again with his powerful conjured fist but again it couldn't hit me. I appeared behind his back to punch him again.
"Bully's Backstab" "Drums of Kradesh"
"This first rank of the Knight Templar Academy is so useless", someone shouted out to the arena.
"A Legendary knight can't even defeat a city bully", another added.
"No wonder his fiancé has wet dreams of another on their engagement day", a third person added a further insult to Spiros.
"I will kill you", Spiros shouted to me again after hearing the last comment.
"Is that all you can do, shout?" I asked Spiros.
Then Spiros made a circular wave with his hands as a large pentagram appeared behind his back. Magical designs illuminated the pentagram as magical claws rushed out of it.
"Damnit, the guy found out the loophole to my Chaos Field", I complained to myself.
My Chaos field was the magic that could steer projectiles coming my way, away. But it doesn't apply to magic that could change direction at the will of the originator.
Spiros' moving claws could hunt its prey, chasing their target - me.
"Don't you try hiding from my conjured claws? Your bloody lantern couldn't stop them," Spiros shouted toward me.
"Spiros, I admit you are good with your hand and fingers", I replied to him and laughed.
"Yeah, that is all he can do, with his hand. No wonder they call him a Eunuch", someone on the pavilion shouted out and laughed.
"It's the Self-help Spiros", another said.
"Yeah, Impotent Spiros", a third added.
The comments from the audience made Spiros furious but there was nothing that he could do to stop them. So far in the fight, these audiences hurt him more than I managed to- his feelings.
The summoned claws from Spiros eventually reached me.
"Use your pillars of growth to block my claws", Spiros shouted to me.
Spiros knew that I had a powerful, finishing move that could cast a powerful growth that could stake the enemy from the ground. Prince Bion was killed by that magic of mine.
Spiros wanted me to exhaust my strongest magic.
"You don't deserve to see my strongest magic", I replied to him.
To everyone's surprise, a barrage of flames appeared from my hand that rushed out to counter Spiros' conjured claws. The conjured claws clashed with my flame, destroying and neutralizing each other upon the clash.
"Starfire Flash, Enhanced version"
Spiros was stunned. He never expected his strongest magic could be so easily broken and I have not even conjured my strongest, ass targeting magic yet.
"Yeah, that is the magic of our Kaleon family", Orol shouted out from his pavilion happily.
Even Orol and his cousin came to watch me fight in this battle.
"Cousin, I don't see you using your magic half as well as your son", Prince Geoffraie told Orol.
"My son is a genius. He optimized the constellation of our family magic", he replied to him.
Orol was happier that his son's conjuration was greater than his, than if he could cast magic like that. A father's pride.
"No, Impossible?" Spiros asked himself as his strongest move was so easily countered by me before he realized and said to himself, "I have lost".
"Impotent"
"Weak"
"Useless Affinity"
"Eunuch"
"Self-Helper"
Spiros was experiencing a lot of pressure from the crowd. This was a battle for him to lose. He came to battle thinking this was an easy match for him, but it didn't appear so.
In fact, the situation was one where Spiros would lose to me, someone whom he bullied when he was younger.
Suddenly, to my surprise and shock, Spiros was experiencing a change of mind.
Initially, Spiros thought he was invincible.
He was the genius of his generation. He was proud and undefeatable. But the battle with the boy that he once bullied wasn't what he expected.
In Spiros' mind, he could actually lose this time. That was a thought that he never had before.
"I admit you are much stronger than I thought", Spiros said to me suddenly and surprisingly in a calm tone.
"You can quit now if you feel that way", I replied to him.
Suddenly, Spiros' composure changed. It seems, fighting with me and losing caused a change in him.
Prince Spiros was no longer compulsive. He forced himself to calm down because he could possibly be fighting against someone his peer, or greater. He realized that now because he was about to lose this fight. He wasn't invincible anymore.
I was actually quite surprised by Spiros' sudden recognition and acceptance of himself.
Suddenly, Spiros' body started to glow as the magic around us flowed into him.
-------
"What the Hell is happening to him?" I asked.
"Prince Spiros is advancing in magic, in the middle of battle", someone from the pavilions shouted with excitement.
"Few people advance in magic after they reached the first level of Uranus tier. It is considered the limits of humanity. Only the apostles and Saints could advance beyond that level", someone with knowledge told us.
"This Spiros is truly a genius", another added.
"The question is whether the Bully is his match now", a third one asked.
"My magic was at a plateau for a long time. I admit, fighting with you has brought out my potential and caused me to breakthrough", Spiros said to me as he advanced another level in his magic.
Suddenly, Spiros became more deadly than before.
But I was not intimidated by Spiros' magic although I felt a little jealous.
