Chapter 53 - Raiyen Triumphs (1/2)

”And what compels you to think that you can match up to me?” asked Mavislin, eyeing at Raiyen skeptically.

The boy smiled as he brandished his daggers by sharpening their blades with one another.

”Time,” he replied as the daggers started to shine gloriously.

”Don't forget, you're up against a Valkyrie,” said Mavislin, standing in position.

”You're up against a full-fledged Time Mage. Don't take me too lightly, Mavislin,” replied the Time Mage, eyes filled with fiery determination.

His Aura started merging with the power within the twin blades. Unlike the previous time he had nearly lost control, the power he was now showing off was much more formidable. Much more powerful. And he was in control. Mavislin smiled as she whipped out her special spell.

It used to strike fear within the Time Mage whenever she decided to use the spell. The moment Raiyen detected a shift in the Valkyrie's Aura, and he would immediately retreat. This version of him was nothing like the one Mavislin had left at home.

Brimming with sheer confidence and armed with the knowledge of Time, Raiyen had no regrets as he prepared to face the spell head-on. Raiyen crossed his daggers, inducing an X formation. An enormous, glowing ball of light appeared in the area that both blades touched.

Impressed with his confidence, Mavislin answered in accordance, converting the Light Elements to Dark.

”Light seeps into the air, Hope fills the land. Let there be joy, Let there be no pain. Heaven Sent!” chanted Raiyen, the golden blade bursting with Elemental Energy.

”Let the light flow. Let the dark fade. Divine punishment descends from the heavens. Overturn this spell for this land to strive and flourish once again...” chanted Mavislin, as she was engulfed with her Elemental Energy.

”Darkness seeps into the air, despair fills the land. Let there be pain, let there be no joy. Hell Bent!”

”Heaven's Wheel Alter: Monody!”

”Converge, convulse! Luminera Nova!” yelled Raiyen, unleashing the attack.

Mavislin's eyes widened, mouth agape as the Time Mage performed one of the most sophisticated spells in the books. The merging of spells. Once the ball of light left Raiyen's blades, Mavislin knew the result of this duel will not end in the Valkyrie's favor.

The ball of light had grown and launched itself towards Mavislin's direction. Swirling through the air with traces of the three other Elements which he wielded, Jeanette had no choice but to employ her skills as a Mage.
