2023-02-03 16:26:51"RAIKEN!!!" Mina yelled as she punched Albus in the face with a fist covered in lightning and sent him flying. She did not wait for him to land before launching her next attack with a bolt lightning and immediately after that, she rushed towards him and began a barrage of attacks moving faster than the speed a normal eye could follow.
Each attack was faster and stronger than the former. Mina didn't leave any opening for Albus so he created one for himself.
Mina was about launch her next attack when she found herself evading another concentrated flame. It didn't come from Albus' direction but from behind and she look back, she saw a whole lot of light balls.
Mina already knew the next action to take... run.
With all her might Mina fled the area before the barrage flames rained on her and Yen was waiting where she stopped.
"Need my help now?" Yen asked
"Nahh, I just need a weapon" she replied
"Well our swords didn't survive the rampage, you have a crossbow though"
"Nahh I don't need it" she said
"Oh well let's do this" she said as she stretched out her hand and formed a rod out of lightning then ran off to wack Albus with it.
Yen was genuinely shocked. He had just seen Mina do something he he'd never done before as if she had been training all her life for it. Even the 'raiken' was her invention, but Yen was still in for more surprises.
Mina ran towards Albus who had surrounded himself with concentrated White flames. The little balls of light were orbiting him slowly and firing around the area to prevent anyone from coming in while he recovered. He had taken great deal damage and needed time to get back in shape.
"I shouldn't have underestimated this girl" he said as he watched his wounds close up.
Albus had a fast recovery rate but he still feared that Mina might find a way to get at him before he was fully recovered... She did.
"What could she be up to this time?" Albus wondered as he watched Mina run circles around him and his defense system
"It's no use" he said loudly
"Whatever you are planning will not work" he added..... Then he saw some glowing spots on the ground around his defense system.
While Albus wondered what he was looking at, Mina stopped and placed her hand on the ground then said the words "RISING BOLT" and from within the glowing spots came numerous rods of lightning. Albus sensed the danger and immediately took off into the air but Mina was not done with him.
"You're going nowhere" she yelled as she formed another rod in her hand and threw it above Albus. The single rod divided and became as numerous as the ones on ground then Mina yelled the words "FALLING THUNDER" and the rods from both above and below shot at Albus and struck with intense power and voltage.
"I'll call this move... DIVINE SHOCK"
Albus wasn't the only one being shocked. All Yen could do was to stand back and watch in awe as Mina used his power to do things he never imagined he could do with it. Yen was superior in speed and mobility and never really had any need for techniques, but seeing the elegance of Mina's moves made him wonder
"Just how far into my heart did she look?" He muttered
"She has peered so deep that she understands the very nature of my existence"
"This is not something I expected" he thought.
"But she has to hurry" he said
"I'm almost drained"
Albus' flames were losing intensity but he also noticed that Mina's speed and power were also going down. He cracked a smile because according to his calculations she would be drained before him.
He continued attacking until he hit her once, then twice, the lot of other times.
At this point Mina was drained and weakened. She could still feel her connection with Yen but his power was diminished, all she had left was her own physical strength and her Wit.
"Why am I never aware of my limits?" Yen muttered to himself as he watched the fight from afar. The lightning around him was barely sparking and he could no longer send any power to Mina. In his fleeting moment of thought, he wondered "what am I wearing?"
One shot after the other, Albus laughed as he watched Mina struggle to avoid his flames.
"There is no hope for you" he said
"You will die here" he yelled as he formed a sizable ball of flames and shot it at Mina.
In the spur of the moment Mina reached behind her and felt a crossbow hanging from her waist
"And thought I didn't need it" she said as she immediately pulled it out and aimed.
As she shot at her target, she wondered
"Who makes arrows out of gold?"
Mina's golden arrow passed through Albus' flames and pierced him right in the forehead, the arrow had passed through intense flames so it was pretty hot and painful.
Albus' ball of flames struck Mina in the torso but at the moment of impact her eyes gave a brilliant glow of lightning and her entire body was shielded with it.
"I made it in time" Yen said to himself as he collapsed on the floor naked. It turned out that his robes were made out lightning and at the last minute, he turned it into power and sent it to Mina.
Meanwhile, Mina Walked to Albus' and pulled the arrow out of his head then began stabbing him all over.
One of the major secrets Mina found out about the prophets was that they could not die. Whenever one is killed his mind just transfers to a different body and he comes back. It was the prophets' biggest advantage.
Every physical damage that she dealt on Albus meat nothing. Mina's main aim was this moment, when she knelt over him and mutilated his temporal corpse.
Normally, it would be useless to do damage to a dead body but Albus' case was different. While a prophet is being transferred to his new body, he still feels all the pains and sensations of his old body. The transfer took about five minutes, enough time for Mina to instill some psychological damage.
After she was done, Mina staggered over to Yen and collapsed right beside him.

His eyes were heavy, his voice was inaudible, he could feel his consciousness fading but he kept on praying.He had thought that he had enough strength to keep up the prayer but his condition was worse than he had thought it was."I'm sorry" he said as he fell to his knees and went silent.As the paramedics were rushing to take Orie away the thing that he was trying to keep under control broke free and took over Natsumi.Kaen tried to call back his flames but they were sniffed out as soon as they came in. The mist was thick, it was cold and he could barely see what was in front of him. Icicles were coming at him from different angles and he could hardly evade any of them.He saw himself at a dead end. He could not see anything he could do that would cause him to win the match. He was tired, bleeding, aching a
Keeping cool
"Who should I fear more?" Kaen wondered"Is it the monster that makes me shudder""Or is it the vessel that contains it?"As Kaen prepared to engage his opponent, all that he could think of was the fear that he felt. He could not forget it.Not many remember it but there was once a great incident that took place in Fubuki island. It was an incident that almost claimed the lives of all who lived on the island.A great frost, so cold that no flame could resist, quickly spreading and freezing everything in its path. In the dark winter night when many slept, this frost came along to take their breath.Somehow, everyone woke up in their beds the next morning with no recollection of the past twelve hours. This event sparked many rumors and among them was the rumour that the residents died and were brought back, proponents of this rumor backed their claims by speculating a tragic event within the twelve hours period.That night came to be known as the night where men slept. The "silent night
I am here
"THE SIGNS DO NOT LIETHE TRUTH WILL NOT DIEAS TIME WILL GO BYWE WILL SAY OUR GOODBYESFOR THE TRUE PRIEST TO BE BORNTHE FALSE GODS WILL ALL DIE"Orie heard these words just before he woke up. He looked around in confusion, trying to figure out where he was. The last thing he could remember was that he was surrounded by dust in the arena.He looked at the nurse who seemed surprised for a reason and asked "how long have I been here?""F... Four days" the nurse answered nervously and Orie remain silent"We thought you were dead" she added"Who won?" Orie asked"What?" The nurse replied, still shaken up"My fight" Orie rephrased"Who won?""Well..." The nurse replied"The other guy was disqualified so...""... I guess you won""Oh" Orie said as he tried to get off from the bed but the but the nurse immediately moved to stop him."You just woke up sir" she said"We can't let you walk around till we know for sure that you're okay""I'm okay" Orie replied as he got down from the bed but
Still standing
Of the expectations that the people had, no one expected that a majority of the spectators would be okay with the outcome of the fight. They were sure that what they saw was real, they were sure that what they saw was fair, they were sure that the contestants gave it their all and they were sure that the winner deserved his victory.Even those who didn't support him in the beginning were cheering for him with all their heart, even those who lost their bets because of him rejoiced at the sight.There were many good fighters in the tournament, many who at the wave of their hands would cause marvelous sights but of all the fights in the tournament, Orie had shown them most invigorating.The cheers went on for a while until people in the crowd began to notice that the referee was yet to formally declare a winner. Soon they noticed that orie had not made a single movement since the clearing of the dust, he was still standing but he could not move.Though one person was on the floor while t
The bird and the beast
From within the circle came forth a huge bird of prey; a hawk. It appeard to be fully covered in silver. Just by looking at it, one could tell that its beak was harder than a rock and that its claws were as sharp as blades, even its wings didn't seem flying was all they could do. At this point in the battle where pride was being cast aside, the same thought ran through the minds of everyone watching. "NOW THE REAL FIGHT BEGINS" "Go" at this command from Chris, the bird threw itself at Orie with incredible speed. Orie evaded the bird without problem but what came next was quite challenging. After evading an attack from above he found himself facing one from below. Not many can escape such attacks from Chris. He would use the bird to make his opponents dodge in a certain manner, then he would go in for the real attack when their balance had been compromised. It was quite an effective move, but just not for Orie. "How is this possible?" Chris thought to himself as h
The market day
"This is my day" "This is my day" "This is my day" It kept repeating but Natsumi could not understand what it meant" "This is my day" She knew she had forgotten something "This is my day" She was sure she had forgotten something "This is my day" Something that would help her discern the situation. "This is my day" It stopped as soon as she realized what it meant. She remembered that when she thought it was Orie's birthday, he had told her these words. She remembered how he told her of the four market days of his tribe and that he shared his name with one of them. She remembered that he told her how the days affected his power, and this made her the least surprised person among the audience when Orie got back up on his feet. "WHAT... THE... F***!!!!?" Ellie screamed at the camera "How much blood does this guy have?" "He's lost so much yet he is still standing" "What kind of immortal dragon sh** is this" "This is not easy to believ
