Jarvis charged forward, his great sword raised high, but as Jarvis closed the distance with his maddening speed and his sword and body swung in mid-air, Cor-Ellion was gone again, this time appearing above and delivering a powerful kick that sent the knight crashing to the ground.
Antares scuttled forward immediately after he saw Jarvis go down. He brandished his claws, hoping to get at the asura before he recovered from dealing with Jarvis.
But as Antares lunged at Cor-Ellion, the royal asura seemed to split into multiple versions of himself, and Antares found himself slashing at space. Noir followed up immediately and unleashed a chilling blast of ice breath toward Cor-Ellion. The frigid winds swept through the battlefield, freezing everything in their path. But before the icy attack could reach him, Cor-Ellion vanished, leaving Noir bewildered by his absence.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm With a taunting laugh echoing through the air, Cor-Ellion reappeared floating behind Noir, his hand glowing. He struck at the wyvern's wing causing Noir to roar in pain and crash onto the floor.
He looked down at all of them from his vantage point and shook his head. "This is just too disappointing, there is nothing extraordinary about you lot after all"
Skkkrrr
Antares compound eyes narrowed to a frown as he stepped out of the smoke of dust and ice caused by Noir's tremendous fall and the frozen environment.
"Stay back, give me five minutes alone with him before you dare to do anything." He said with a low screeching tone and trotted out his claws while glaring at the royal asura. Antares began to emit, an aura of red with his dark body becoming somewhat smoky.
He looked upward and flung out his transparent wing which began to flap and take him up, his eyes were tightly locked on the asura until he was at the level at which the asura was also floating.
The air between the both of them was heavy with tension, and at once— Antares charged forward with incredible speed, his wings propelling him like a bolt of darkness. He swung his razor-sharp claws, aiming to rend Cor-Ellion's golden form. But the royal asura's godly reflexes came into play, and he dodged each strike with breathtaking ease. Cor-Ellion's lithe movements seemed like an intricate dance, a deadly ballet that defied the laws of physics. Antares continued his relentless assault, his claws slashing through the air. Cor-Ellion, however, did not need to move much; his mastery over space-time allowed him to step aside without apparent effort, and his 'Seventeen Cenobite Whim' allowed him to see every of Antares' attacks, moving before the shadow soldier even struck.
With a flick of his wrist, Cor-Ellion formed a shimmering space shield that deflected Antares' blows. The impact sent shockwaves through the land, causing fissures to appear on far grounds and the air to disperse violently.
Antares was pushed back but did not go far before he lunged himself back at Cor-Ellion, he swung one hand backward consuming it in a torrent of flames, that engulfed his entire hand like a blazing aura. The heat intensified as he unleashed a barrage of fiery projectiles, aiming to overwhelm Cor-Ellion from the distance as he darted into his space.
Cor-Ellion darted between the flames, moving through seemingly nonexistent gaps in the inferno and his form flickering like a mirage.
"ARRRRRGGGHHHHH!!!"
Antares roared in frustration at not being able to land a single hit on his foe.
Wham!!
In that slight moment of flaring up, Antares left an opening that Cor-Ellion closed in on with blinding speed, he delivered a series of precise strikes, each one guided by the relentless flow of time.
Antares attempted to block, but the force behind Cor-Ellion's blows was overwhelming, every single one made his entire body shudder.
Despite the ferocity of Cor-Ellion's assault, Antares refused to yield. His wounds closed almost as instantly as they were opening. The ground and ice bore witness to the might of Cor-Ellion's blows and trembled with cracks delving deep into them.
Cor-Ellion finally stopped punching but the ant was still regenerating its body.
"Your regenerative ability is amazing. I can just decide to trap you in a moment of excruciating pain just as I have done to your master. But I want to see you draw out more potential. Put your heart to it, fight me like your master's life depends on it! Because your master's life depends on it!!"
"How dare you??!!!!!"
Antares screamed, letting out a frigid wave that surged forth, threatening to freeze anything in its path, even the already frozen. But it was useless before Cor-Ellion, who was beyond the ice-chilling reach. He flowed through the gap of space that was left within the ice surge and countered the ice itself with an explosive barrage of his own that caused a scatter effect.
"Hey, Jarvis..."
Jarvis nodded immediately after Crimson spoke and immediately the two charged at Cor-Ellion together with a coordinated and synchronized flow—Crimson was not the one synchronization, he was moving at his best, and Jarvis effortlessly matched it.
Cor-Ellion's body tingled with excitement as the two of them closed in on him. He could sense the might and symphony of power that both of them exuded due to their flawless synchronization.
"Yes! Yes!! Delight me!!" He switched attention from Antares real quick and faced them, almost getting bored as he waited for them to reach him even though they were already at magnificent speed.
Finally tried he fell and smashed himself on the ground destroying their coordination with the impact of the crash. Jarvis reorganized his lost composure and flew into Antares, hugging him tightly as he landed on the ground and rolled away.
"Get your filthy hands off me you son of a bitch! I almost had him at that moment he looked back."
"No! He would have trapped you if you had moved an inch closer to where he left. I guess someone was finally sharp enough to sense that." Crimson said looking at Jarvis who sheepishly scratched his head in response.
"That was the same technique he used for Master. He left a ripple in the space and master fell into it. You were too blinded by frustration to see it too." Crimson added, frowning at Antares.
"Tchhh..." Antares gritted his mandibles in anger.
"Oioioi, I am still here you know and I am waiting for what other tricks you all still have up in your sleeves."
"This bastard!" Crimson frowned, "Jarvis!!"
