The demon maiden chapter 4.5

Note. So this is a little bit out of order of upload, so sorry about that

I entered the room, where I would be fighting this novice. A small grin grew on my face as I saw the battlefield, a holy cave. One of the best places for me to fight, due to my power's and fighting style. I quickly scanned the room for any traps or secret's, there were none. My eye's shot up to the viewing area, a place meant to be hidden from me. But as I high level fighter, I know where it is and my experience and my power's help me see it. Glazier waved a hand, and the teacher left down a stairway, while Sabrael passed her on his way up. I shouted up to them “I get to show my skills to both of the great angels huh, not a chance I’ll take lightly. You know I’m impressed you got your team so large Sabrael when rookies that can withstand me are rare. Though you do have a priest meant for healing instead of battle."

Without warning I started to run toward my novice opponent. While I ran I drew the holy energy into two twin blades, just not fitting nicely into my hands. My opponent noticed and started to put up a small holy shield around his body and mind. But as soon as my dagger's were infused with holy energy I used a martial arts spell, or a spell that warrior's or non magic user's cast, that spun me toward my opponent at speed's too fast to notice. This spells often just affect the body or a weapon, but like some of mine it can also be like magic spells, like my create weapon.

My blades smacked down on holy energy and metal, bring my opponent to his knees. My foots was caught in energy, not allowing to move, then a surge of energy heats the air around me. And before the peak of energy I cast a minor teleport spell, a high level martial arts spell, or low level magic spell. I appeared away from him to see many small holes against the wall.

"Three seconds give or take, that was how long that interaction took and I think I know exactly how you fight and how to counter you. While you just were testing for weakness, of amor, skills, anything with that move. So can you withstand my new attacks.

I drew in all of the holy energy in the cave, leaving it nearly pitch black. With the remaining holy energy in my body I casted Naaririel, the same high level holy spell that he casted during his tournament not a few hours ago. A large beam of holy energy appeared, fighting against my opponent's shield. Then a large explosion of white light and holy power appeared, and lasted for a few seconds before disappearing.

When the light disappeared, his left arm bloodied, my opponent stood standing.

"Leo the copycat some call me," I paused "other's call me Leo, jack of trades. I prefer Leo, the prince rouge. If you withstood that blast, you are worth hearing my name."

"I am sure you know my name, so now that introducations are done, shall we fight. The time is ticking." My opponent

"twenty-two seconds have gone by since I first attacked, and I have yet to show you why I will win this fight." I nearly laughed

I used a high level martial art the darkness within, a spell that camouflaged myself and set many defensive spells as well as set the base for offensive abilities. It was a perfect defensive ability with plenty of flexible offensive power mixed in. A original spell I created, though there are many like it. To a great shock to me, my opponent casted holy purification, which removed my offensive spells and traps I had just cast.

But I didn't need offensive spells, I cast my sprint martial arts ability, appearing behind him as quick as a teleport ability. I then swung my blades toward my opponents back, to only be meant with a holy energy shield. It blocked my swing with the other dagger, and by the way it felt, it would break if I hit it once more. However I never got the chance as a massive mace was swung toward my head. I casted a martial arts ability minor teleport plus evade. Martial arts and spells can be combined and this would have me teleport away from harm's way and help me dodge ant traps I landed on. When my vanish spell as I called it ended I used a combination of three martial arts, create weapons, throw weapon, and speed up projectile's, or as I called it, suppression. After I set the spell into effect, I cast a martial arts which changed one of my dagger to a two handed blade until I cancel the effect, then I added a spirit spell. My dagger's I created hit first and I felt his shield go down, then I was upon him and my newly made two handed sword was going for his back. My opponent moved nearly as fast I, allowing him to move his back out of the way. My sword cut through leather and hit a solid metal layer breaking it, his soldier pad. I created ten more dagger's and sent it at him, then turned my two handed sword back into a dagger and swung one toward the back and the other I flung at his sword and used a martial art to speed the dagger up. The dagger hit his sword lodging it in the hilt and taking it to the other side of the wall. My other dagger's hit hard metal, then a white glow appeared, the sign of a rushed holy spell. He had made a thick metal wall all the way around him.

If my timing was correct, I had five seconds to take him down. I used a combination martial arts spell of nine with the martial art skill shadow realm as it's base. Shadow realm was a unique spell to me, many tried to make copy's or cast it themselfs, no one had gotten close. It transported people into a relm, and because it is not a copy of the real world he would no longer have a metal box surrounding him. The realm itself would give anyone trouble, moving around in yet alone fighting as moving through the floor is like a pundle if you don't have control of the shadow's. Moreover because he is holy, he could not get any more energy for spells and I could use this relm to block any attacks he throws at me. In addition I cast a lot of attack moves, that even I would have to take serious. And even if he lived I would have full control over this realm, I could make walls, monster's anything I wanted.

The spell took affect and then within two seconds my opponent, was impaled by shadows. Upon seeing my opponent's defeat I cancel shadow realm, bringing us back to the real world. At which point with three seconds left, the battle was over, I had won and he lay there nearly dead.

"What is your name." I asked

My opponent stood up and looked me in the eyes "Ishim."

I grunted "Such a novice answer"

"Wait. My name is Ishim, the novice." He said, a grin on his face. But his eye's told me he was disappointed.

"Don't feel bad, you made me use one of my most powerful abilities. Only my team and Sabrael could have won in your position . I am sure you'll soon make it to a elite team."

"Let me ask you one thing," I nodded my head in agreement "Why did you use a sprint spell instead of teleportation when attacking me."

"They teach you nothing do they, with a spirit spell you keep the force of your speed, with a teleportation spell you don't have any speed so you limit your force. Now let me ask you something, how did you block my attack."

"I used a martial arts spell, time control, currently only used by the god, demigod and the high lord angle. But because I am so weak I can only use it to make my reactions as fast a elite warrior, for half a second, But it drains me for nearly all my energy."

I nodded, impressed. The teacher came in, and I let them take him away, the best group he'll get into now is a low tier elite, if he is lucky. I was sure though, as rumor of his abilities spread and he learn's one of the top four squad's will test him, and find that he passes their test.
