The Ark Of Betting On Outcomes

"Since when did those gremlins open Gillian's Gate of Primordial Beasts?!" exclaimed Z, rushing to the window.

"I'm pretty sure that the kids aren't directly using the real Beasts' power like how Gillian does with his Gates. Thus, the two kids won't cause too much destruction. However, the battle is still nice to watch. It's the next generation's way of invoking powerful Beasts from Legends of Old."

"I'm sure Amani will win if he uses his best defending move against Nasima's spear. Her attack output isn't too high compared to the rest of the children," said Z, sitting back onto his chair.

"Are you going to place gold pieces on that assumption? Because I bet that Nasima is going to win this fight. Yes, you are right about her Elemental Power not being the highest, but it isn't the lowest either. Amani may have high defense, but Nasima has a trick up her sleeves."

"What would that be? And yes, I will bet you three gold pieces for Amani to win Nasima in this fight. Just don't tell Gillian about this bet..."

"Alrighty then, pay up before I tell you what trick the baby has got for Amani," said Mavislin, sticking out her hand towards the Galaxian Mage.

Begrudgingly, Z reached into his drawers, pulled out three gold pieces, and placed them on the table. Mavislin smiled as she pulled out five gold pieces from her sleeves, slamming them on the table. The Old Chapel understood what the two Mages were doing and quickly caged the money.

"Five gold pieces?! Are you that confident that Nasima's trick would be so powerful against the boy?" questioned Z, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, because Nasima's main aspect is the sense of touch. Meaning to say once she is near her opponent, Nasima can tell their weakest spots and, to an extent, their location of the Elemental Core. So out of the five, that girl of the winds is the only one to control her aspect fully."

Z stopped blinking for a moment and just stared at Mavislin, trying to ask the girl for further explanation.

"If Nasima truly wants to kill, then Amani would've died within the first half of the battle since she was accustomed to how Amani's body moved and where were his weak points. And if Nasima concentrated enough, she can use Blood Mastery to enhance her sense of touch further."

"Which is exactly what she did when her eyes were darting around the place when the Leviathan was growing. Don't assume that Nasima doesn't know how to use her powers in the best way she knows just because she is the youngest. I dare say that this little girl can surpass Rina soon."

"From what I can tell, I bet Nasima is going to use an attack powerful enough to destroy the Leviathan's attack and body," elaborated Mavislin, returning her attention to the battle outside.

Z wanted to add some thoughts to her prediction but quickly silenced because the computer in front of him was giving off flashing lights to warn that there was a sharp change in Elemental Energy levels in the area. And to no one's surprise, the giant change was Nasima's Elemental Energy levels.

If there was another contender to make this a three-way fight, that person better summons the Behemoth to even out the battlefield. The Banes of Job will come true, with all three siblings fighting to the end. The Slayer suddenly had an idea upon looking at the scene.

"Don't tell me what you're thinking to do, Slayer Verna... Are you seriously going to consider that as their curriculum? Would Lady Mavislin allow you to do that?" asked Ashley, glancing at Bryan.

"These kids are working together for the next few years, so they'd better know how to fight with each other and understand their powers before heading into battle. And besides, I heard the Arks' Founders also did three-way battles back in the day, so what's the harm?" asked Bryan.

"The harm would be that these are children being forced to have Elements while the Founders were Mages who were in tune with their powers and could keep them from spiraling out of control. These kids may be powerful, but they are still learning about the world and their powers."

"I'll be here to supervise the children, so you don't have to worry about them getting hurt," wasn't a perfect answer from the Slayer as it earned a hard smack on the head by the angered Marksman Pillar.

The children were shocked at the sudden outburst from the Marksman Pillar since he had them treating them with kindness. The three kids took a single step back, unknown if Ashley might lash out at them. However, the Marksman Pillar didn't pay attention and continued to scold the Slayer.
