Counter

                      Zaos couldn't help but hesitate a little in casting any spell. Still, in the end, he enveloped his longsword with earth magic and then proceeded to attack. In a moment, he was ten meters away. In the next, he was in front of Elius, swinging his sword. Despite the speed, Elius still blocked the attack with his own longsword.

                        The sound of metal colliding crossed the entire area. Since it had been pretty powerful, the other squad members stopped to see those sparring. Usually, Elius would scold them by shouting near their ears and almost make them lose their hearing. Still, he was too busy trying to withstand the weight of Zaos's attack. Elius could see a thin layer of earth above the sword, but it wasn't enough to make Zaos's sword that heavy.
