The temperature of the environment became evidently hotter with each passing second, and all that heat radiated from the side of the training ground where Silas stood.
The person in question bathed in the power that was flowing through him, it was the same sensation that brought the emotion of superiority from every Eors. Unfortunately he didn't have the time to get lost in his thoughts as a wooden sword was tossed straight at his neck.
He caught the sword effortless breaking it with his right hand watching it crumble to ashes.
"This kind of weapons won't be useful in the battle to come, it's best to get rid of them now", he said
"I had no intention of using them in the first place, plus the real fight is just starting", Kassius stated as the surrounding heat increased.
Sweat dropped from Kassius's face as he inhaled a deep breath closing his eyes, opening them back he had eyes directly similar to Silas only that his iris was radiant violet.
Immediately kassius activated his agros the heat Silas was releasing was shielded by an invisible force that redirected it around him.
Kassius bent down to pick up a handful to stones before stashing it into his pockets. They both stared at each other wondering on how to approach.
Silas instead took the initiative to attack stretching his hands outwards clutching his fingers into a fist as the heat from the surrounding gathered to the point.
Seeing the ammas converging around Silas fist indra ordered a knight named horus to cast a protective barrier, ophia sitting on indra's shoulders exclaimed as she saw a bright light leak from within Silas's closed fist.
Opening up his fist directed at Kassius, bright yellowish flames were released engulfing their immediate surroundings. Torrents of flames headed towards Kassius who in turn remained motionless at the face of the immediate destruction.
He clapped his hands together, bringing it from top to bottom. The waves of flame was instantly divided into both sides of the training ground rendering Kassius unharmed.
Unfortunately, Silas was already on the move using the flames beneath his feet to propel himself forward.
Appearing like a phantom he delivered a spinning kick towards my head as I used my hands to block. The kick packed a lot of weight as it was augmented with the flames that served to increase his speed.
I slid a few meters back feeling a dull aching pain on my left hand
'shit it hurts', I thought as the skin on my right hand suffered second degree burns.
Momentarily blinded by the pain Silas arrived before me once again delivering an axe kick, lucky for me I had prepared before hand. Picking into my pocket I launched three of the pebbles I picked at high speeds towards his head, shoulder and eyes.
Twisting his body in abnormal way he dodged two of the pebbles while using his hand to caught the remaining one.
'He fell for it, I need to move in now', Kassius thought stretching the palms of his hand towards Silas's abdomen
"You've lost"
Ammas gathered around his palms as a strong repulsive force shoot Silas at point blank range, the force generated was great enough for leave a hole in a normal human but all this served to do was to knock him out.
Silas flew through the air like a doll with broken strings as his balance was disturbed due to the position he had found himself in the air, the force generated was to great to change directions mid air plus taking the full power at point blank left his mind white.
Regaining consciousness half way his instincts went haywire, forcefully digging his hand into the floor of the training ground he tried to reduce the momentum of his body while using the his agros to change his direction by igniting the flames of his feet propel his self to the side.
The ground broke leaving a trail of destruction finally stopping at the tip of Silas's left hand, getting back his bearings he removed his left hand from the ground as blood slid down from it prompting the smell of iron and smoke to invaded his nose as he took a look around the training ground.
For the least he had to say he was impressed, not only had he been pushed this far he also received injuries. Although this was only due to him reducing his strength to match Kassius it was still an accomplishment not the less.
Kassius stared in shock at what he just witnessed as he thought, 'what kind of monster is he'. The training ground had already been destroyed beyond imagination as blood, flames and craters filled it, much less to say it was about time they brought an end to this.
Feeling the need to end their confrontation as he had seen what he needed, flames gathered around his right hand forming a spear. Stretching his right hand behind his back, he positioned himself in a throwing posture has flames ignited deep within his eyes hoping to burn everything within their path.
His radiant eyes shown brighter than ever has the flames around the spear turned blue, "I advise you to dodge this less you'd die", he said with a smile.
His body rotated as his feet landed on the ground causing cracks to appear beneath it, his muscles on his right hand bulged releasing the flaming spear of destruction.
A loud screech was heard as the spear transversed through the air at binding speed, the path in which the spear passed was reduced to molten lava as the heat threatened to annihilate anything in its path.
Kassius had used almost everything in his arsenal and was beginning to get fatigued, his eyes were already blurry and exhaustion was catching up to him but all that didn't matter has his mind was on overdrive thinking of how to evade this attack.
It was too fast for him to even think of dodging and the power behind it showed he'll likely die trying to tank it, the only option left was to change the course of the spear but he knew it wouldn't be easy. Gathering whatever ammas he had left, flowed towards his hands and eyes he needed to be able to see just when the spear would hit.
The screech sound had already reached him within a second, straining his eyes to the break his attention focused directly on the spear aiming for center of his body.
Clasping his hands together toward the spear an imaginary force pressed against it trying to restrict it movement.
Unfortunately for Kassius he truly could not fathom the strength behind it, his feet sunk into the ground as the spear continued to push him back breaking the ground beneath him.
"Fuck, he really is trying to kill me", he said trying his best to hold out against the weapon of mass destruction, putting everything on the line he tried to shift the direction of the spear to his side as beads of sweat fell from his face.
Shifting his hands to the side he forced the spear to the side under his armpit, just has he was about to release it.
A feeling of overwhelming dread overcame him as he heard a voice beside him, "You truly exceeded my expectations, but it is time for you to rest brother".
Before he could even turn he was struck with enough force to plant his head into the training ground, Kassius eyes went white as his consciousness faded with the hit.
Silas caught the spear and released the flames into the atmosphere before turning towards Indra pointing at Kassius unconscious body.
"He needs rest take him to his chambers and call the maids", he said as approached grabbing ophia from indra raising her into the air has he smiled.
"Let's go get some sweets", he said
Ophia sat on his shoulders before asking,
"Will big brother Kassius be okay", she said staring at a knight carrying Kassius's body with a clueless face
A laugh escaped Silas's mouth as he replied,
"Don't worry about it, he'll heal"
