Incline 45: Oddity Student Einervaene

How powerful was this girl!? I have been striking her over and over with my magic and she just kept getting up! I was more of a nuisance than anything... This shouldn't stop me from trying, though!

If I kept going at her, surely I would wear her down? I was lightning for some god's sake! I was the fury of a storm in one attack! An attack that would not stop coming!

And, it was even helpful. Because I needed to learn patience and this battle would teach me it. So, whenever I had a moment to do so. I struck down and took this girl into the clouds with me.

If I could just get her to clutch her stomach and vomit or something! I could give everyone the room they needed to fight more effectively. And, maybe, I could keep Nin safe as this girl clearly had a thing against Nin! I just had to keep my focus.

Not even the tiniest lapse in my judgement was acceptable in these circumstances! If I did not keep the pressure on her, Nin would be seriously hurt! Just then, as well, I had a breakthrough in my attacks.

"D-Dammit..." she groaned as she clenched her stomach before she fell to her knees. I was finally having an affect on her!

"Perfect!" I found myself saying with a smirk as I crashed down just before her. Sending her off in the resulting explosion before I held my staff at her. Then, with a moment finally here, I used its other purpose. And I launched an unrelenting bolt of blue lightning at her!

Groaning and nearly screaming as I focused a never-ending bolt at her. Only for dread to fill me as it was clearly having no affect. Yet, my injury from earlier was there to remind me of my limits. And I quickly collapsed as it spurted blood.

"Some help would be welcome about now..." I squeaked as I watched this witch rise to her feet. An aura of incredible strength pushed down on me until another met it. And, when she was distracted, I hobbled into the cover created by her power and I hid there.

Who was this, exactly? They were clearly powerful yet I had never seen them before! And maybe it was a good idea that I ran away too. Because, unlike the girl, his power burned even worse than both the wyverns I have fought.

"Warrior, I am not done with you!" they said before this girl just up and left! Was he perhaps stronger than her!? No, from what I have seen...

"Nin...!" I let out as I tried to hobble out into the open so I could get to the sky uninterrupted. Yet, my injuries got the better of me and I fell to the ground. Terror filled me and I desperately tried to get back to my feet.

"Do not worry, I am here to help." this man says to me before he helps me to my feet. His immense power then surged into me and my wounds vanished. A nod then came from him before he threw me into the sky. If I wasn't in such a rush to find Nin as well, my screams would've embarrassed me out of the fight.

Yet, I had a good cause to focus on. So I, thankfully, intercepted this woman before she likely found Nin again. And I must have been doing something right because she was getting annoyed by me! So maybe I was finally wearing her down!

However, her attention went elsewhere, "A lot of power is in you, no?" she asked no one as she briefly looked behind her.

"What do you want with Nin!?" I then demanded to know. This wasn't the first time she has shown up to pick a fight... Only this time, I had good cause to fight back. I was allowed to do so too.

"That... Is not! NIN!" she screamed with hysterical rage before she ran at me without any of the speed from before. But, when she made that mistake. I pointed it out by turning into my lightning form!

"IT IS! IT COULD NEVER NOT BE HIM!" I shout at her when she grabbed my staff. Thousands of little volts surged into her yet she still pushed back against me.

"NIN IS NOT A BUG!" she screams back at me as she starts to overpower me until she was on top of me. Yet, thankfully, her blows did not have the effect they might've normally had. It was still a painful experience, however.

"GET OFF MY FRIEND!" Larishazza screams as she leaps out from the smoke and twirls this witch off of me!

"Lari..." I said in thanks as she helped me up before a hastily made barrier was smashed against.

"FOCUS YOU TWO!" Larishazza's sister roared before she let the sky rain icy doom upon this witch.

"I'LL TRY AND MAKE AN OPENING!" I shouted over the hail of ice magic before picking up my staff. Aiming it around the quickly failing barrier and reappearing on the other side. Lancing straight at this woman and pinning her to the ice until she growled in pain. Just then, the ice began to grow once again.

My power only melted some of it until I was forced to let go. Lest I be trapped in the forming mountain Tiyanat was making. However, when I stumbled along the dry earth upon getting out. I did not relax.

There was no way that would hold this woman! And, to prove me right, all that ice just suddenly exploded outwards before a blast of fire melted it. That man had come back and she quickly took the fight to Nin's enemy. This did not mean I would give up, however.

Even as Nin came running back to join the fight. My attempts to stop him, however, failed, and he quickly punched the woman.
