Stella didn't hesitate and charged forward, raising her fist to blast Tsukasa down!
Tsukasa was about to meet her fist with her blade, and once her fist met his blade, it might even cut her fist in half, but he stopped and knew that Stella had made a feint attack.
As expected, Stella stopped her first before she suddenly disappeared.
Yes, vanish!
'Flame Veil, huh?'
He recalled that Stella used this technique to hide by refracting light from the heat. By now, she was invisible and couldn't be seen by eyes, but it was impossible to hide from him. He turned to the right and saw her figure, she was about to punch him, but he cut her down.
*Pssh!*
'Mirage?'
Suddenly from the left, Stella appeared and smashed her fist!
*BOOOOOOOMMM!*
A single punch caused a force that wouldn't lose to an earthquake.
The battle circle was already left in ruins and melted from her flame.
Fortunately, the venue was still intact since it was protected by Kurono, Nene, and Nangou.
"Hey, hold back a little!" Nene screamed since it was tough for her to maintain a barrier.
One punch from Stella was enough to tremble through space. If she was serious, her punch was enough to send an impact, which was enough to reach the sky and horizon. It also contained extreme heat, which was enough to melt any matter on earth. It wouldn't be strange to call her a walking disaster.
Everyone was already huddled together, and some of them were already regretting coming since their lives were really in danger!
Even the host and Yuuzou-san couldn't say anything since Stella's might was just too powerful!
Still, even if her punch was powerful...
"It's useless if you can't hit me," Tsukasa said calmly after he dodged her attack.
"Then, I will punch you more!"
Suddenly, a copy of Stella appeared.
From one to two to four, and the numbers kept increasing until they reached twenty!
Twenty Stella roared and attacked him at the same time!
Tsukasa's lips twitched, and he thought that Stella had become smarter. If before, she would overpower her opponents with her might and ability, this time, she thought about her strategy. Still, none of the previous opponents that she had ever faced were able to force her to get serious. However, this time, it was different since he was her opponent.
Honestly, Stella was quite crafty since, from the beginning to the end, she had been using her power as a Desperado without saying anything. She also used the power of the dragon from the start.
Lastly...
'Has this girl used Lukifer?'
He was sure that Stella had become Level 5 Exceed, which made him speechless. He thought of facing her head-on, but he decided to back down and soared to the sky.
"Damn, are you running away?!" Stella roared.
"Let's fight in the sky. You're going to destroy this city if we fight there."
"...okay." Stella nodded before she soared to the sky with her flame wings.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them soaring to the sky. After all, if they fought in the sky, the danger that lingered around them would decrease.
Kurono, Nene, and Nangou were also in a similar state, and they sighed in relief since there was no need for them to maintain the barrier so hard.
"It seems that they have chosen the right place to fight."
"Yes, this is a battle circle. No, this city is too small for them to fight. It's better for them to fight in the sky."
The host and Yuuzou also regained their composure, but they quickly flinched.
*BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM!*
On the sky, Stella didn't need to hold back since she was afraid to hit the audience, so she used all of her power, blasting the clouds, smashing the sea, and causing ruin everywhere. The fortunate thing is that none of her attacks hit the building or whatever since, if so, the treasury of the Vermillion Kingdom might be emptied to compensate for the damage caused by the ruin of her attack.
Still, no one could deny at this moment that she was a dragon, the symbol of destruction since each of her attacks could easily destroy anything.
On the other hand, Tsukasa's movement was graceful. His way of dodging was impossible to mimic, but each of them was enough to cause everyone to open their mouth wide, surprised by his action.
If they make a comparison, he was like a skillful matador playing with a raging bull.
It was rude, yet such a metaphor was still perfect for Stella, who was as fierce as a bull.
Still, if Stella wanted to defeat him with this, it would be just a pipe dream.
He had been dodging from the beginning to the end and had never met Stella, but this time it was different. He swung his blade when her fist was about to come. So far, nothing could be cut by his blade, and everything was cut down as easily as butter under a hot knife.
Stella could also feel the danger on his blade, but she roared and decided to face his blade!
"ARRRRGGGGGG!!!"
Stella's fist and the blade collided, and the sound of a metal collision shrieked the entire city and caused an impact that was enough to create another tsunami.
Stella's fist was wounded slightly, but because of her ability to manipulate the concept of the dragon, her skin was as tough as a dragon's, and it wouldn't be strange to say that the toughness of her body was better than her Device!
By adding the power of Desperado and Exceed, even a nuclear bomb couldn't even harm her.
Yet her fist was wounded by Tsukasa, and her inside was rumbled that she almost coughed blood since she could feel a tremor rampaging inside her body. Still, with her regeneration, everything was healed instantly.
However, Tsukasa was blown away by Stella's punch, and his arms were trembling before he swallowed his blood. Still, some escaped from the corner of his mouth but quickly healed by his healing factor.
Yet everyone roared in surprise since they knew this was the first time that the Sakra had been hurt in this battle!
