SLASH!!
CLING!!
THRUST!!
CLING!!
STAB!!
GRIND!!
...
…
The confrontation between the Being and Scáthach commenced. They were rapidly exchanging blows with each other at a speed that can't be seen by naked eyes.
In just a second, they strike hundreds of thousands of times. Countless shockwaves were being released because of their fight.
CRACKLE!!
Primis who was looking at their battle felt a cold sensation on his back.
Glancing behind, he saw Ophis using her "Elemental Manipulation" to cover his wound with ice.
From their past clash, Ophis knew that the wounds inflicted by the Being not only negate regeneration but also made them worse. Even the effects of potions, pills, recovery spells and so on decreased by 95%. Hence, the best way was to seal them.
Turning his gaze back to the fight, Primis asked.
Primis: Did you warn her about this?
Ophis: Mn. That's why she is also careful not to get hurt......Though even with her caution against that thing---
Primis: It will be a matter of time before she gets hit.
Ophis: Um...…
From her voice, Primis could feel the fear which Ophis was trying to suppress. Still, Primis remained silent and waited for Ophis to finish her treatment.
THRUST!!
DING!!
Another thrust of red spear was deflected by the claw.
Without stopping, the second one came.
SLASH!
DING!!
It was blocked too.
???: Just a mere 2nd-Level Existence, yet your skills already reached the Master Rank which can only be attained by 3rd-Level Existence. Not bad. People like you are very rare. Though...…
SWISH!
Claw came from such an impossible angle which Scáthach failed to comprehend.
SWOOSH!!
???: Hmm? Looks like you have something more up your sleeve.
DRIP!!
Scáthach, who retreated at the last moment frowned and looked at her left metallic shoulder pad.
There was a crack on it and from that crack, blood was leaking out.
The Being succeeded in landing its first blow on her.
Witnessing this a cold sweat appeared on Scáthach forehead. If she didn't use her runes to increase her speed to dodge that claw, then her entire shoulder would have been ripped apart.
???: You might be a Master, but I am beyond it.
Gritting her teeth, Scáthach tried to use runes again to heal her injury. Nevertheless, just like Ophis told her, it's not working. In the end, she also had no choice but to seal it.
Taking a deep breath, Scáthach prepared herself again.
SHINE!!
SHINE!!
SHINE!!
...
…
Many runes appeared on her dual spears and body.
SWOOSH!
She then moved a lot faster than ever before.
???: Oh…
THRUST!!
Turning slightly to the right, the spear passed through the gap between the Being's arm and chest.
Before Scáthach could pull it back, the being closed the gap to stop the spear between. However, Scáthach was ready.
DIU!
The spear disappeared before the Being could grab it. Then many such spears appeared behind Scáthach before they launched towards the Being.
Still, it turned out to be pointless since all of them were dodged with hardly any effort.
BANG!!
BANG!!
BANG!!
...
…
Those spears landed on the wall and pillars and destroyed them.
Ignoring the destruction, Scáthach attacked with the second spear in her other hand.
CLING!
Though, it was blocked too.
As Scáthach was about to continue, The Being clenched its fist and punched with a terrifying strength behind it.
Scáthach: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sensing the incoming danger, she pulled back her hand and materialized her second spear again before crossing it in front of herself.
BANG!!!!!!!!!
Scáthach: Kuh!
SWOOSH!!!
BOOM!!!
Scáthach: Auh!
Even though she prevented the direct hit by using her weapons, the force behind it threw Scáthach away and smashed her on the pillar.
Before Scáthach could stabilize herself, another claw came for her.
GOUDOU!!
GOUDOU!!
BOOM!!
However, it was interrupted when a wall came out of the ground and appeared in front of Scáthach, protecting her.
BANG!!
The Being punch penetrated throw the wall but the speed and strength behind it decreased a bit because there were some water, metal, and some other elements inside which made the wall more sturdy.
That moment was enough for Scáthach to come back to herself and move out of the way.
BANG!!
CRACK!!
The moment she jumped away, the fist hit the pillar and the entire pillar crumbled.
FWOOSH!!
A huge blue fireball was shot at the Being in the next second.
Looking at it, the Being used one of his hands and stopped it.
THUCH!!
The blue fireball was trying its best to overpower or burn the Being, yet it was to no vail.
The Being just remained on its spot not moving at all. Then it squeezed its hand and the fireball exploded.
BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lowering his Gun-Blade, Primis' gaze never moved from the explosion. Just now, he used one of his strongest moves "Pulse Canon". Still, he had no confidence that it would do much since he saw the Being stopping it with just one hand.
STEP!
Scáthach reached Primis' side at this time and was also looking at the blue explosion in the distance.
Before the claw could hit her, Ophis used her "Elemental Manipulation" to create the wall between them giving Scáthach enough time to get away.
{Scáthach: My Lord, do I use my Reality Marbel? It will give us some upper hand.}
{Primis: No chance.}
{Scáthach: N-No chance?}
{Primis: This is not the first-time I fought this thing. So, I knew it would easily break through it the moment you will cast it.}
{Ophis: Um. Don't use it since using Reality Marbel is too taxing. And because the Being will destroy it, you will only be wasting your precious magic.}
{Scáthach: Ok.}
The smoke disappeared and just like Primis expected, the Being was still unscathed.
???: Are you done with your little planning?
Primis: Yeah.
SWOOSH!!
Leaving a blue wisp behind, Primis appeared behind the Being and slashed.
SLASH!!
In return, the Being just sidestepped and dodged.
As Primis looked at his wide back, the Being attacked behind with its elbow.
Moving his head back, Primis dodged it before twisting his hand and attacking its back again.
SLASH!
CLING!
Though using its other hand, the being stopped it without even looking.
It was about to make its move when a black blade came from its head.
Instead of dodging or deflecting it, the Being held Gun-Blade tightly before pulling Primis along with it and threw him towards Ophis direction.
FWOOSH!!
Seeing Primis in the way, Ophis had no choice but to pull her Chaoskampf back and catch Primis.
THUD!!!
The moment Ophis caught Primis, the Being was already in front of them.
FWOOSH!!
Nevertheless, it didn't get the chance to do something because the red spear was thrown at it.
It stopped as the spear went past it.
SWOOSH!!
Scáthach who had thrown the spear appeared behind the Being and attacked.
CLING!!
Primis also separated from Ophis as both also joined.
SLASH!!
CLING!!
THRUST!!
DING!!
SHIN!!
CLANG!!
STAB!!
DANG!!
.....
...
…
And just like that the battle kept on raging on.

A long time passed.
The Hall was destroyed a lot because of their battle.
Currently, the Being was nonchalantly flying in the air and was surrounded by Primis, Ophis, and Scáthach.
The Being was the same as ever while there were some minor injuries on Primis and others.
{Primis: Ophis, let's do that.}
{Ophis: Ok.}
As Primis and Ophis were discussing something, the temperature in the hall dropped and pressure fell on all three of them.
???: I think I have played enough. Let's end this. I will show you what happened if I become a bit serious.
