The Ark Of Sixth Seed: Winged Flight, Six Rounds

"Hell... I think I will take over for a while after you've used that honor student's sword against this flaming hot hair. To prove to you that being berserk isn't always a bad thing and gets you started on liking the idea of fighting without control!" shouted Mordred, slapping Midori's back.

Midori sighed as she went back to the physical world and slammed a foot into the ground to emit a shockwave, powerful enough to push back Circe for quite a distance. Next, Midori twirled her sword before throwing it into the sky and towards Circe's position.

As Circe tried to position herself to prevent her back from breaking against the wall, Midori broke the ground by lunging diagonally upwards to follow her thrown sword. After grabbing her sword, Midori spun a few rounds in the air before landing at Circe's position.

"Sixth Seed: Winged Flight, Six Rounds!" roared Midori as she sounded way more like Mordred than usual.

Crap... Was Mordred going to take over the child?! Bryan wanted to protect Circe since the strikes felt more potent than a normal kid could handle but was halted by something else. The Slayer couldn't move as he looked down, noticing that his feet were grounded.

"What the?!" swore Bryan as he saw that tree roots were holding his feet to the floor.

The roots weren't too strong, but it was enough to distract the Slayer from saving Circe from the incoming attack. Then, as Midori called out her Original Spell, six green slashes with red hues appeared in front of Midori and barrelled towards Circe at lightning speeds.

Luckily, Circe could see the attack from far away and could dodge most attacks. The only slash to slip past the Hawkeye was the last attack when Midori nearly landed on top of Circe with the final strike. Instead, the fire child broke the ground, trying to use her bow to clash with the sword.

A colossal shockwave reverberated through the area, strong enough to rock the grounds under the audience. Duncan quickly caught Nasima before she stumbled forwards while Ashley and Tomoe stood still.

"Hm... Should we help them? It seems that Midori is slowly losing control of the spirit that dwells within her," asked Tomoe, feeling more bored than worried.

"I'd say leave the two girls be unless Circe is truly in danger," replied Ashley, using his Magecraft to predict the events of the fight.

"I'm not sure I should trust your Clairvoyance since Circe looks like she will buckle under Midori's weight."

"Hush and be patient. But, God... You are so noisy when we are supposed to watch good fights..."

Circe broke the clash by drawing her bowstring and loading up a large arrow fueled with flames. Midori sensed the danger and backed away instantly as Circe prepared to unleash her bow's true potential. Instead, the fox child threw up her sword and allowed the Sun to shine onto the blade.

Circe moved her bow and aimed toward the skies while still drawing the bowstring. Circe's arm exploded into flames as an arrow appeared in her hands. The arrow shone in crimson and orange lights as Midori's sword glowed brilliantly with gold and green.

When Midori caught the falling sword, she bent forwards and crouched on one leg, closing her eyes. Rings of gold light with green hues came from the crouching child as she began to release the power she had in her hand. Was Midori drawing the power of the Sun?

"O' Holy sword of the Sun, may your light be powerful enough to cast the day away and start the night. Pay heed to its brilliant display!" shouted Midori as the sword erupted into flames and extended twice the child's size.

"I pray thee, Goddess of Hunt, Artemis. Grant me your blessings, and I shall call upon Callisto, Constellation Of the Great Bear. I offer you these seven Stars..." chanted Circe as she released the bowstring with a loud thunderclap.

The arrow shot through the air and into the skies, scaring the audience from above. The weapon was powerful enough to find itself next to the stars but wasn't too strong since it didn't break the Old Chapel's sky dome. But it did shatter something that Gillian was working on.

"Aww... I guess I'll start again..."

Upon feeling something terrible was about to go down, Ashley quickly loaded his rifle and fired a signal shot down into the pit. The Marksman established a communication line with Bryan via the bullet.

"Hold up your hand with the Barren Pillars symbol and shout these following words out loud. It will activate an almighty guard to protect you from what's coming! No matter the cost, you can't get hit by these two attacks! Because you'll be burned alive by both sides!" commanded Ashley.
