More Battles Outside

As if there was an unspoken signal, the battle went up a notch between the two, exploding into a new level of intensity—literally. 

BANG! 

Whether it was boulders or sudden trenches, ice spikes, slippery ground, or the like, the area around them had become dangerous. 

It got so intense that every other fight that happened nearby moved several meters away, leaving them a clear area to fight with minimal collateral damage.

During this time, Garan had eaten a number of mana cookies while Baltimore had drank another mana potion. Baltimore frowned, surprised at the fact that Garan could still use his elements after so long.

His eyes zoned in on the cookies, and realized they must recover Mana somehow. It was not unheard of, especially for towns and above, though definitely rare in villages.
