Monody Vs Luminera Nova

"And what compels you to think you can match up to me?" asked Mavislin, looking 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 strength he was now showing off was much more formidable. Much more powerful. And he was in power. Mavislin smiled as she whipped out her particular spell.

It used to strike fear within the Time Mage whenever she used the spell. When Raiyen detected a shift in the Valkyrie's Aura, he would immediately retreat. But, unfortunately, 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 correctly, converting the Light Elements to Dark.

"Light seeps into the air, and 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, and 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 would 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 he wielded, Jeanette had no choice but to employ her skills as a Mage.

"Come forth, protect my comrades. Drapeau Sacré! (Holy Flag)" yelled Jeanette, spinning her banner to create a shield.

The princess was silent on the floor as she looked at the French Maiden perform the spell. For all she knows, it was not a grand idea to provoke these two in battle. But unfortunately, none of them seem to bother caring about any spectators.

"It is possible you shouldn't have underestimated what are Mages capable of," said the Holy Maiden sternly.

In the intervening time, the torrent of smoky black arrows had made contact with Raiyen's attack. This created a massive trench within the surrounding land where the battle was held.

Finally, as Raiyen's Elemental Energy dwarfed Mavislin's Monody, the Valkyrie had no choice but to throw up her last resort. The massive explosion rendered the entire landscape decimated. Yet, amongst the debris and sand, a solitary silhouette stood tall.

Not even a single sweat was broken. The figure seemed unfazed as it walked through all the dust.

"So Valkyries are quite weak," murmured Metria, looking around.

"I'll burn your tongue out if you don't find a way to keep your mouth shut soon," hollered a voice within the dust cloud.

An inky shadow moved, effectively clearing the dust cloud. The cloud revealed a very pissed-off Valkyrie stood with a single wing high up in the air while the other was limp, touching the ground. Her body was burnt, filled with bruises and blaze marks.

"Even after his most powerful?!" asked Metria.

Raiyen was equally shocked, but not for a reason mentioned above as the foreign princess. The Valkyrie was livid as she tried hoisting the limp wing. Raiyen glitched towards the girl, skidding through the land.

"You used your wing? Doesn't that hurt?' asked Raiyen, trying to aid the girl.

"Don't worry, damages to the wing are much less painful than direct damages to the rest of the body," explained Mavislin, nevertheless trying to get herself out from the hole.

"Really?"

"Of course not, you numpty. Stop asking the obvious and get me out," commanded Mavislin.

The Time Boy froze while offering a faint smile. Knowing that he had injured someone from the past this badly would mean a bunch of nasty abnormalities popping out. It might even damage his Time Stream.

Raiyen jumped into the ditch and lifted the wounded Valkyrie in a bridal style. Much to the exhausted girl's surprise.
