Pyro vs Cryo Part 4

She let out a powerful side kick that sent Hunter through the wall crashing through even the gate surrounding the palace.

Hunter was now in the middle of the street, civilians watching on as he struggled to get to his feet.

The church bell was ringing, giving all the citizens the warning of danger with the walls of the kingdom.

Hunter had not Enchantment himself and as a result being tossed through a solid brick wall and metal fencing had injured him severely.

Civilians watched in shock as one of their prestigious Guardians had just been thrown like a rag doll into their street, other civilians began running and screaming out of the fear of their own safety.

"Silvana... Lucien, Zaranah WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU BASTARDS!?"

Hunter slammed his first into the bticked road out of anger but he had to carry on.

Zera's silhouette began to cover Hunter as she calmly approached him. Attempts to restrain her from nearby knights failed miserably as she sent them all into a frozen hiatus.

Hunter finally stood up and spun delivering powerful kicks and punches laced with enhanced fire, each strike ignited by his will. His flames formed an ethereal cloak around his body, leaving trails of heat in its wake as he lunged at Zera.

With elegance and precision, Zera countered by shifting her body, her movements as fluid as the frigid air she commanded. She turned Hunters attacks against him, freezing the tips of his fingers mid-strike, causing him to grunt in surprise.

It was clear Hunter was desperate, he had put up a good fight up until now but it was clear that Zera always had the situation under control.

Zera,aware of Hunter's desperation began to Spring up some more remarks.

"Your stamina is waning, you can always do yourself a favour and let me go"

"Not a chance, YOU'VE BEEN A NUISANCE LONG ENOUGH!"

"Then how exactly do you plan to deal with this nuisance? the level in our skill is relatively clear wouldn't you say?

"Relatively...BUT NOT CLEAR!"

"Pyromance"

"Primary Enchantment"

"HEATWAVE!"

The Zenith Hunter emitted in that brief moment was so dense that you could almost see it.The flickering flames curling at his feet looked like sentient wisps, eager for freedom. His in crimson Guardian combat robe began to mirror the blazing sun, he shifted his stance, his mind sharp and focused. Hunters primary Enchantment "Heatwave" concentrates a dense aura of Zenith around him amplifying his flames two fold the normal temperature.The furniture near him along with the ground beneath him began to melt, the civilians witnessing the feud began to sweat uncontrollably as his flames roared in purgatory.

Zera was struggling to keep on her feet as she slowly backed up step by step trying to avoid the reach of the heat.

Hunters strength and speed had been increased but that won't matter as in his current state Zera's cyromance is absolutely useless despite it being a mere primary stage chant.

Hunter walked towards her, each step closer causing her to limp further to the ground.

She eventually fell to her knees and began holding her neck gasping for air, the heat of the air around them left it hazardous to inhale, she even closed her eyes to avoid them being dried out.

"This will all stop if you surrender" he said, voice tinged with triumph.

Her attempts at fresh air went from desperate...to mild...to calm.

Her eyes opened and narrowed at Hunter, her expression went from desperation to accomplishment

A grin appeared across her face

"Thanks Hunter, that's close enough"

"Advanced Enchantment"
