36 *Title Hidden* (1/2)

Now standing before me is a man with medium length, wavy and spiked orange hair that juts out at the top in a shape similar to rabbit ears. He has thick eyebrows and bears a scar over the bridge of his nose. He is dressed in fanciful white, black, and red robes and wears simple boots. His most noticeable attribute is a large wheel of blades on his back resembling a dharma wheel, giving him the superficial resemblance of a divine figure, particularly the Japanese deity, Raijin. He is the strongest mage on Ishgar continent and one of the Ten Wizard Saints.

God Serena.

Right now, the strongest mage on the continent is looking around over dramatically with his legs wide apart and a little crouched, eyes wide and practically waving his head left and right instead of someone who actually looked like trying to look at his surroundings.

”Woah, woah. Where is this? How did I get here? Where are the cameras?” He kept asking in a high pitched voice.

Seeing this I had the urge to strangle myself for getting involved with this guy because I know for a fact that this just the tip of the iceberg of how over dramatic he can be.

”Ooh, it's a kid. Hey kid, do yoouu know where we are? Do yoouu know how I got here?” He pointed his finger at me and emphasized the 'you' in his questions when he looked at me. Much to my annoyance.

”God Serena, I brought you here to challenge you to a fight. And by the way, I won't be taking no for an answer. As long as you give me a good fight I will send you back to that bar where you were.”

He once again widened his eyes at my words and looked me up and down for a moment before turning sideways, putting his right hand on his waist and his left hand on his head before looking up with a smug smile and saying.

”Heh, I didn't know I was so popular among the young kids nowadays. Well, it can't be helped after all I am suuper strong, handsome and charismatic. Well, I will entertain you for a while then. Come, you can attack me and I won't move too much and end the fight soon.”

”.....”

I seriously want to strangle myself. Haah, let's make him a tad bit more serious shall we. I made use of space by compressing it around him making it feel like I was giving him pressure by my magic power. I learned how to do this since I didn't technically use magic and so most if not all the time, if I want to fight someone strong they won't take me seriously.

He looked surprised at the sudden pressure but that was all. He looked at me for a while and gave a confident smile at me and then without saying anything he raised his left hand to motion at me to come at him while his right hand clenched into a fist cladding it in a flame which gave of an overbearing heat.

Finally, my deadpan expression broke as I gave out a smirk and dashed at him while cladding my spine, legs and arms in space. This was different from the other times I did this as I had never clad my spine with space during a fight. In last week of training, I decided to do this to find out if it changed anything. And to my surprise, not only did it give me greater balance while running it also helped me put more strength and especially speed into my punches and kicks.

Seeing me come over in such a high speed, God Serena was surprised inside but still showed his confident smile at me. And when I entered the 50-meter mark from him, his smile turned to smirk as he slammed his left palm on the ground.

”Cavern Dragon's Earth Destruction!”

The earth underneath me was destroyed as boulders and rocks of all sizes were sent flying everywhere. While I had not received any damage, I was still sent flying due to the shock wave and had to constantly maneuver my body to dodge the rocks flying at me.

As I saw him standing up, I teleported in front of him and sent him flying with a punch to his face. I knew how dangerous he can be so I once again teleported in front of him to continue my attack but he reacted faster.

”Sea King Dragon's Encircling Deluge!”

”Tobi's Visage”

He waved his hand and sent a pressurized torrential water at me but I had improved from last time and was able to make myself intangible.
