The Queen stared down from her frozen throne, she glared at the fool as if he was nothing more than a beast.

She caresses her frozen wolf petting and complimenting it.

"Look at you. You're nothing like that beast fighting down there, even you are superior to him."

The battle seemed one-sided at the start but the minute the two guards attacked together it started to look in their favor.

"𝘞𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯, 𝘐 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘮 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘮𝘦 𝘢 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺.

"I see that you two together are quite the duo"

"Shut up intruder, we do not need your measly compliments. You initiated a fight against us, which means you either fight the entire Kingdom or die, but in reality, there is only one option for you. Death."

They start overlapping their hands over each other combining their power and increasing it by an insane amount to which they fire a barrage of Ice Magic crystals straight at the fool to which he responds by evading it graciously and with style.

"Pathetic. Did I overestimate you two?"

This comment specifically enraged the two, who started taking the situation more seriously now.

"Fine then. I suppose you're worthy of our power."

In unison, they create spears made of complete Ice together and start dashing at the fool increasing in speed with each thrust of their spears directed at him

"Come on you two, you can be faster than that"

"𝘐 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘐 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘵𝘰𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩."

They both try their best to even land a hit on the fool but they can't even land one, he isn't even looking into the future. Either they're weak or the fool has exponentially increased in speed and power.

"Is that all you got? Are you two really a part of the royal guard?"

"YOU'RE JUST DODGING, WHY DON'T YOU FIGHT BACK LIKE A REAL MAN."

The fool outrages the minute he hears this, his eyes widen, and he clenches his hand into a fist and breaks both of their spears in one swing with his brute-like strength

"You idiotic, useless, weak, slow, unimportant royal guards don't you dare even call me inferior to you."

He pushes one onto the floor and stands on top of them as they quiver in fear.

"Do you understand just how insignificant you truly are before me?"

His aura and entire being started to seem more and more evil and beast-like. If anyone were to look at them right now it would seem as if a wolf had just captured a rabbit and toyed with its life.

"YOU STAY AWAY FROM MY SISTER"

Surprisingly enough the guard manages to land a singular hit at the fool's back having him bleed lightly. He turns to his attacker and backhands them instantly knocking them across the room.

"DIDN'T YOU TELL ME TO BE A REAL MAN? YET YOU STRIKE YOUR OPPONENT'S BACK? YOU HYPOCRITICAL DISCRIMINATIVE WEAK STUPID GUARDS."

He starts staring at the Queen "HOW DARE YOU, A QUEEN, EVEN ORDER ONE OF YOUR OWN PEOPLE TO BE KILLED, THEY ARE A PART OF YOUR KINGDOM, YOU DON'T JUST GET RID OF THEM SO EASILY."

The Queen scoffs it off pretty easily "Clearly they weren't fit for my Kingdom then. If only they were all wolves or dogs, then maybe things would be easier. Isn't that right Luna?"

"You clearly are not fit for the throne, I shall get rid of you and your useless ideology along with you."

The guards get their strength back up and start putting their hands together to cast another spell.

"Really? Another useless spell? What will it be this time then, amuse me."

They start channeling for a couple of seconds and it seems as if an extremely small blizzard is being built up within their hands until finally it is released. The instant it goes off the whole room becomes trapped within a snow storm almost blinding the fool entirely

"Resorting to cheap tricks now?"

The two ignore him and go in for some strikes after remaking their spears, although they were fast before they have a vision advantage too which they will use thoroughly to assure their victory.

Surprisingly enough it works, they both start to get a good amount of cuts on the fool having him bleed a little.

"This is starting to get annoying now, how about you two fight me fairly then."

They ignore him yet again and continue with their tactic, he can't even look at himself for a glimpse of the future, and his reflexes aren't high enough to detect something his vision cannot see or detect at all. But after slowly damaging the fool more and more. Finally, he snaps.

"I've had enough."

He snaps his fingers with his Thunder glove and a massive bolt of lightning appears instantly evaporating and getting rid of the snowstorm

"Well if it isn't a foolish creature from the Thunder Kingdom roaming into here. Everyone from there is always so hot-headed and causes trouble all the time, that useless old man was just as annoying as you are."

The fool stares at them with the intent to kill them on the spot and uses his Light Magic to speed himself up. In his left hand, he creates a dagger made of complete Thunder, and in his right his signature blade, Solstice.

"This is the end for you two. Never bad mouth a friend of mine."

In almost a fraction of a second, both of the guards died on the spot with cuts on their neck, chest, and face with both of his weapons dissipating.

"Come down and fight me and let us end this useless fight of who is superior."

"So what you killed a couple of guards and now you want to fight me? Do you think you can command me?"

"Of course I do, now come down, or the wolf gets it"

The Queen appears almost instantly next to the fool with a spear of her own in hand ready to pierce his heart. The spear is a lot larger than the ones the guards used and seems a lot more durable.

He barely manages to react in time and dodges the attack using his Magic.

"You dare touch Luna and you're dead. Fool."

"You may have these irrational ideas of how to run a Kingdom and think you may even be on par with me but you do not call me a fool."

"𝘐𝘧 𝘐'𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘯𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵, 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘐 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴, 𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘓𝘶𝘤𝘦 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬."

The fool uses Solstice against the spear but just as he thought, the fight is almost completely balanced, whether he sees into the future or not it does not matter, they both keep deflecting and countering each other's attack with no window to attack. So the only way to succeed is to improve on the spot, after each parry he slowly puts his hand behind his back until eventually.

"Have fun with this."

He throws three knives of Thunder at her. "Next time don't announce your attack, scum."

"Did you think I didn't know that?"

He misses the knives on purpose and sets up a trap beneath her. All the knives conduct electricity forming a link trapping her for at least a second and able to land one good hit with Solstice.

"Never let your guard down, the more you do that the easier it is for me and that's no fun."

The Queen, furious "YOU USED CHEAP TRICKS THAT ISN'T FAIR, AND YOU CAN USE TWO MAGICS HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE"

The fool sees the woman complaining more and more and notices a window of opportunity for a strike and does not let it pass him.

"What did I just tell you? You keep doing this and you might lose."

"I WOULD NEVER LOSE TO THE LIKES OF YOU."

"SKADI, LEND ME YOUR STRENGTH AND DESTROY MY OPPONENT WITH A WINTER SO STRONG NOT EVEN MY OWN KINGDOM COULD WITHSTAND IT."

Her skin started to turn blue from how strong the winter's blow was and her wolf joined her combat, although her clothes looked as if they were armor padded with lots of furs it seemed like it did not matter with how cold things got.

"𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘻𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘵. 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘐 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘦𝘴"

"This will be the end for you, this is my strongest magic yet and no one has lived after seeing it."

"Good thing I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve then."

They continue their fight but the fool is pressured, although his bodily temperature is high he's starting to feel numb in his arms.

"To think you'd be this weak now."

"I WILL NEVER BE WEAK IN MY WHOLE LIFE"

The minute he snaps at her, the wolf, Luna bites the fool's legs with his blood gushing out freezing almost instantly and after never feeling a pain like this he writhes in pain letting her land a free hit on his chest.

"Is this... The End?"
