4 Weeks later:
"It's time to show off the results of your training", master yells.
He stand's firm, hands in back with an opposing air around him, in the forgotten ruins were they train in papillon.
"In this duel. You will be paired in teams of two's, (if the word paired wasn't enough), see your opponent as your enemy, he announces
Lastly, do not hold back, Master warns as he glances at Milo with blood cold eyes for a tenth of a second, and Milo grabs the whole context from that.
Here's the chart; Maestro vs Liz
Pico vs Asima
Krish vs Alice
Wilcus vs Milo
Begin!!
***Maestros Pov***
"Don't worry I'll hold back", Maestro smirks at Liz , which stands a few meters away opposite him.
The smug look in his face tells Liz how deeply he is undermining her ability.
"I know you've grown even stronger Maestro, but I know you won't fight me seriously and I'll use that against you today", Liz thinks smugly also in her mind.
"Hehe, I won't hold back", Liz replies Meastro as she closes the gap by running fiercely towards Maestro.
Seeing the Sparring match has begun, Krish lifts this staff to the sky, creating a circular barrier for protection around the whole vicinity.
Maestro summons his dark blade, then also charges at Liz, while running he guides his face to dodge an explosive bullet, shot by Liz.
Then he slices every other bullet shot by Liz , while closing the gap.
Every bullets then explodes, throwing Maestro of course.
"Cough", Maestro coughs with eyes of annoyance, as he comes to a realization, "she chooses when the bullets should explode not in impact, how annoying"
"This is getting interesting", Liz laughs.
Looking at the ground Liz creates four medium sized buttons, hidden slightly beneath the ground, while Maestro gets up.
"She's getting serious", Maestro speed increases two fold as he sprint's at Liz , hoping to catch her before she fires a shot, but instead he lands right in Liz trap.
As soon as Maestros leg lands within the shocking buttons range, strong electric frequencies charge through Maestros body, demobilizing him.
[For you falling for such an obvious trap, I'm ashamed of you boy], Sega beams at Maestro.
Shut up!
Meastro then releases his aura, overpowering the electric frequency, thus shattering the buttons and breaking free.
"Is that all you've got", Maestro taunts Liz.
The next moment a sinister smile can be once again, sighted for a brief moment, before see teleports right behind maestro, shooting him before he can react.
"Coughs' why", blood drips down Meastros mouth,as his eye widen in disbelief.
Staring at Maestro, Liz just walks to his front ns grabs his jaws.
Maestros heart nearly skips a beat, as he sees a new face he had never seen before on Liz pretty face, a serious face mixed with a pathetic look, like the way wife's stare at their husbands after finding out their being cheated on.
Leaning closer she says, "Because your enemies beyond papillon will not pity you, it's suffering death and betrayals, to not just your kind but humans likewise, you have to be ready for anything, trust no other women than me!", After the scary pep talk Liz just smiles-"that's why".
"Is this because Mariam huged me and I huged her back", Maestro asks making Liz flinch in her steps.
"O-obviously not, hmph", Liz walks away leaving the defeated Maestro.
[She's sad, maybe somethings going on in her town that you don't know], Sega tells Maestro after Maestro uses sega eyes to read her real emotion.
"That means I won, you owe me a good time",Liz says making Maestro blush, and the others shoot him irritated looks.
***Pico's Pov***
After a few seconds of eye staring contest between pico and asima, pico shape shifts from his sharart form into a fine gentleman couped with an aristocrat clothing and slender peamed hair.
"I'll summon my highest spirit, no holding back", Asima dull voice echos'
'Spirit summoning:Hero of the seven seas;Sinbad'
After a mighty rumble of the earth, a playful laughing voice echos, followed by the appearance of the one and only legend;Sinbad'.
"I see you've (bark) found a way to shorten your summoning (bark) ritual, using your bloodline (bark) ability", Pico scoffs.
Sinbad' then greets Asima, "I see you're my temporary master, you must be from the house of Asterisk, I await your orders"
Sensing immense danger from the seemly calm guy, Pico tries to persuade Asima, "hey now d-dont be heisty"
"Break him", Asima laughs in a creepy way after ordering Sinbad', already imagining Pico's twisted face in agony.
Sinbad' nods, then directly zaps from his previous position to above Pico's head,his muscular legs already aimed at Pico's head.
Pico uses his thin sword to parrie the attack, sidestepping and rolling away.
The force makes a dent on the ground.
Then pico lashes at Sinbad, numerous sword attacks at lightning speed, pushing Sinbad back as he skin was being torn open, in different locations on his body.
"Enough", Sinbad grabs Pico's hand , squeezing it and removing his sword with his other hand.
He throws the sword away, hoping for a man to man fist fight.
Then Sinbad flings his right hand at pico, sending him flying with blood sputtering from his nose.
"It's fine, I already copied you", Ico announces with a hint of desperation written on his now pale face.
Shape shifting into the exact copy of Sinbad in both mass, muscles strength and domineering abilities, pico suprises everyone.
"Hehe, I can shape (bark) shift into anyone that (bark) I copy, and the best part (bark) is that I also gain their strength (bark)and external abilities too, you thought (bark) I was weak hu…..
"You talk too much", Sinbad cut's off Pico's boasting and gloating, as he dives in and smashes his face with his elbow".
But Pico uses his own strength now that they are equal, to grab the elbow, dragging him in and knee bowing Sinbad, making him stumble backwards from the impact.
Even the grounds beneath them, crack deeply as it sinks in.
Sinbad then summons all his metal adornments in their full glory in their places on his body(hands, wrists, waist, back, chest, and legs).
"You'll copy my artifacts and the powers they possess, only if I let you touch me again right??", Sinbad smiles.
"Tsk, it doesn't matter", Pico replies still acting smug but with obvious sweat tickling down his forehead.
"Whoosh"
Sinbad appears by Pico's side, and before he even notices, he gets palmed by Sinbad sending him crashing like a broken kite, shattering the ground beneath in the process.
"This round, Asima wins, Next!!!", Master announces in the cool moment.
