After breaking the stalker's nose and sending him tumbling across the dueling hall, I stand there and wait to see if I knocked him out. A few seconds after he stopped sliding across the floor, he rolled over and started moving.
"Aaaahhh! My nose!" He screams as he rolls on his back and holds his nose with both hands.
Seeing that he isn't getting up fast enough, I kick the ground again and appear in front of him. Yanking my leg back as if I'm about to kick a field goal, I kick him in the ribs and once again send him flying across the hall. Thankfully, the hall is huge, or else he would have hit a wall by now.
"Stop playing around and get up!" I call out once he stops sliding across the floor. "If you aren't on your feet in the next 10 seconds, I'm going to punt you through the window." I say and start waiting for him to stand.
We are on the 6th floor of the palace right now, so being kicked out of the window would probably kill someone that can't fly or has battle energy to strengthen their body. I pretty much told him that I would kill him if he doesn't stand up and fight me. Of course, I wouldn't as it's against the rules, but sometimes you have to light a fire under someone to get them moving.
Seeing that he either has to stand up or he goes out the window, Armad uses all the strength he had to stand up. As he gets to his feet, blood is leaking from his crooked nose and he coughs up a bit of blood. Huh, did I kick him a bit too hard? Eh, whatever he'll live.
"Good, your up. Because you were so gracious to give me the first move, I will allow you to collect yourself for 30 seconds or you can attack me now if you want." I say and just stand there waiting.
His emotions seemed to have gotten to him, as instead of taking the time to collect himself, he started conjuring weapons made of the earth and hurled them at me. I start dodging and move out of the way of every attack he throws at me. I thought he would use his binding spear more, but I guess he knows that he's no match against me in close quarters. As I'm dodging his attacks, he would summon spikes from the ground I moved to. The first time he pulled this move it caught me by surprise. I had just dodged a spear that was aimed at my genitals. Which I take offense to. No man should ever go for another man's sacred jewels in a fight.
After dodging the spear to the balls, I stopped for a moment to see what he was going to do. As I stood there a smile formed on this stalker's face, so I knew that something was wrong. I activated magic sense and could feel the magic in the ground below me. Before the spikes could leave the floor and tear through me, I jumped out of the way easily.
"Oh, that was a smart idea, stalker guy." I compliment him as I land back on the floor. "Alright, that's enough running around for me. Let's see how well you can dodge too."
I summon about a hundred arrows of fire that appear floating behind me. I love doing moves like this as it makes me feel like I'm Gilgamesh from the Fate series. With my new arsenal of arrows ready to fire at my will, I look at my stalker opponent and give him some advice.
"Don't stop moving or you might actually die. If you die though, it's not my fault. I mean if you can't dodge or block a few arrows, that's your fault not mine, right?" I say menacingly to scare him a bit.
I'm not actually going to kill him, but messing with this idiot is fun. After hearing what I said, Armad grows pale and he stares at the wall of flaming arrows. Then one by one the arrows start firing like him if missiles locked into the stalker before me. At first, he tries to dodge as I did, but he's a mage and mages don't usually have good stamina. After he started to run out of energy to keep running and dodging, he starts doing something that I didn't expect.
Using his earth magic, Armad builds a dome completely around him. The dome had no windows or anything that I can send the arrows through. Seeing that he's decided to do some ultimate defense strategy, I wave my hands and the arrows disappear. No point having them out anymore. I walk up to the dome and give it a super-powered punch. My fist causes the dome to ripple slightly. I watch the dome cautiously for a moment to make sure nothing happens. Suddenly, the rippling of the dome shifted back to the place I hit and a spike came poking out at me.
Dodging the spike was easy, as I was ready and waiting to see if anything would happen. Staring at the dome from a good distance away, I have to find a way to get past it somehow. Wait, I don't need to get past it. I just need to get him out of it. With my new idea, I conjure fire and have it surround the entire dome. I wonder how long he can last in an oven of his own creation.
A few minutes go by and he still hasn't exited the dome. If it wasn't for my magic sense telling me he's alive, I would think he had died by now. He's probably running out of oxygen and getting a bit crispy by now. At this point, I've brought out a chair from my inventory. I'm just sat here relaxing and waiting for him to either come out, pass out, or die. Hopefully, he doesn't die. I don't want to cause trouble for the king.
After another minute of waiting, the dome starts to crumble. As I see this I retract my flames that were surrounding it. When the dome is completely gone, what's left is a passed out stalker in a pile of dirt. He looked a bit crispy, but that's nothing a bit of magic can't fix.
"The winner of this duel is Syrin Fortis. Would the doctor please come over and check both participants." The king announces and the doctors come and look us over. Only one doctor came to me. Meanwhile, about five of them went to check on the stalker. Now, where is my new spear?
