Eternal Rivals
In the training hall, I looked at Ray picking up his katana while I held my rapier. I look at him with a nostalgic gaze.
Standing in front of me is an enemy, a friend, a partner, a crush, and a long time rival.
(It's been a long time since we spar, so don't lose badly) (Ray)
Said Ray while he use his signature stance
(Same for you... I hope you didn't rust) (Laila)
I said, as hold my rapier in front of me going into my signature stance
"Are you both ready?" (Anna)
""Yes"" (Ray & Laila)
Looking at both them Anna threw a coin high in the air as a form of countdown
I looked at Ray for a second then focused on the coin falling slowly to the ground. I stabilize my breathing and focus on the match.
Soon the coin touch the ground signaling the start of the match
Pressing their foot on the ground they both shot forward with their sword on hand,
They disappeared, then reappeared in the middle of the field while locking sword with each other creating a powerful shockwave and cracks on the ground
-BOOM!!!
Being pushed back by the shockwave both of them retreated several steps back as they start to stare at each other while gathering their mana
(This is nostalgic, just like when we first fought) (Ray)
(I will win this time) (Laila)
(Say that when you actually do so) (Ray)
With that Ray charged towards her while his sword emit a dark purple glow. Responding to his attack, I coat my sword with ice aura and take his attack head on.
-Clank-!
-Clank-!
-Clank-!
One time, ten time, one hundred time, one thousand I exchange blows while moving around the field, the attack exchange look more like a dance then a spar. Glaring at him I decide to use one of my first Custom Technique
[Custom Technique: Thousand Ice Needle]
I formed thousands of ice spikes and shot them towards Ray
Responding to my attack Ray shot out thousand of dark needles with a subtle purple glow
[Custom Technique: Shadow Needle Rain]
Every one of our attack met and destroy each other creating vapor of ice in the hall, as the aftermath started to subside
the scenery started to change
==========
The numerous stars decorate the night sky, as I stood on the snowy ground in front of my long live rival
I brandish my rapier towards the man in front of me
With his katana he blocked then parried every attack perfectly while shooting a wave of aura.
Teleporting to the sky, I cast one of my most powerful magic
[Special Magic: Glacier Meteor]
Summoning a ball of ice 3 Kilometers in diameter I dropped to the ground at high speed.
Looking at the attack, Ray smiled then he gather a large amount of mana and Aura from his surrounding and use one of his strongest attacks
[Drawing Technique: Destruction Form <
Ray, drawing his katana towards the gigantic meteor, create a powerful slash that destroy the meteor of ice and completely destroying the ice mountain they are staying at
Using the fragments of the meteor she shot countless of ice to the ground. Reacting to this, Ray focus his sense to the maximum and dodge all the attack perfectly
'As expected of the #1 player, to think he came out unscatch from that' (Laila)
Floating on the air, I gaze at his calm purple eyes that look like the night sky, as the scenery starts to change again.
===
This time in the middle of the sea, we look at each other while I held my rapier tightly
Breaking the silence Ray spoke to me
"Why are you challenging me again? You already lost 5 times to me, do you like PK-ing that much?" (Ray)
"..." (Laila)
"As cold as always, fine come at me I'll destroy you as much as you like" (Ray)
With that they started to fight
The sea froze forming a giant land of ice while part of the sea was cut down and divide in two creating large hole with kilometers in length
Mass destruction take place in every area they fight
Standing on top of the sea she look at the heavily injured Ray standing on the sky indicating that he is low on HP, while she herself was heavily injured with no potion left
"How about we end this?" (Ray)
".....I will win this time" (Laila)
Smiling at my word Ray uses his most powerful technique as he channel all the remaining mana in his body
Responding to his attack I channel all my mana while using the water around me to complement my attack
At the same time we attack
[Ultimate Technique: Void Form <
[Ultimate Magic: Absolute Zero]
Two insanely powerful attacks met...
====
This time in the stadium, I look at Ray's smiling face as I smiled for the first time in front of billions as we prepare for our grand fight
We entered the gaming capsule and put on our VR helmet
Entering the game we found our self on a giant floating Island, a beautiful and majestic place fit for the finale of the tournament
I once again hold my Rapier that's been with me from the start as I look at Ray holding his familiar Katana
We rushed at each other locking our sword again
Exchanging blows one time, ten times, one hundred times, one thousand times
We fought for hours, while exchanging our emotions using our swords
"Let's end this....!!! Let's go Laila!!!!!!" (Ray)
He screamed as he uses his last move
"This time... THIS TIME I"LL WINN!!!!.... RAY!!!!!!!!!!!!" (Laila)
I shout as I release my ultimate move
Such, was the legendary tournament where the two of the strongest player in Arcana Online face off once again on the battlefield as friends and rival
Clinck-----!
The scenery once again change as they fought
The training hall froze, while countless cut marks decorate the walls around the training field
Ray the guildmaster of [Night] now as the Prince of the Kingdom and Laila the guildmaster of [Blue Rose] as the First Daughter of A Duke
They once again fought another battle after many fights
"Let's end this....!!! Let's go Laila!!!!!!" (Ray)
"RAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (Laila)
At the same time they both once again activated their Ultimate technique
[Ultimate Technique: Void Form <
[Ultimate Magic: Absolute Zero]
The two attacks clash....
While it's not as strong as before, both of the attack were still enough to kill a weaker S rank combatant
BOOM!!!
Powerful shockwave resounded as the ground shoke
Eliminating each other attack, the fight ended with a tie as they both fell to the round while panting heavily
Mina and Anna watch the fight with their mouths wide open. They were astonished by the fight between two kids that gave off the feeling of a fight between 2 old rivals.
Waking up from her astonishment Anna announce the end of the match
"T-The match ended in a tie" (Anna)
Looking at the Prince and his fiance slumping on the ground Anna tought inwardly
'They both are monsters' (Anna)
While Mina was excited over this event
'Did I just witness the birth of a legend?' (Mina)
The two maids walk towards their respective master to help them stand up
"Haaa..... Thanks Anna" (Ray)
"No problem" (Anna)
As he walks towards the sitting area, Laila screamed
"I tied... Finally I got a tied!!!" (Laila)
"Yeah yeah congratulation" (Ray)
Hearing Ray's respond she smiled happily as she walk towards the Ray with the help of mina and sat beside him
"He~He~" (Laila)
"Are you that happy?" (Ray)
"Ofcourse I am, I finally tied" (Laila)
"That was because of [Synchronize] If that didn't exist I would've won" (Ray)
"I won't deny that but [Synchronize] also helped you too so quit complaining" (Laila)
"I specialized in quick and unexpected attack, so the advantage given is not fair for me" (Ray)
"Yeah yeah... I don't care, it's not like we can remove [Synchronize] anyway, so accept the your lost" (Laila)
"I didn't lose!!" (Ray)
While the two are arguing with each other Anna talked to Mina
"Mina, did you record it?" (Anna)
"Of Course I did, we just witness a legendary battle ofcourse I would record it" (Mina)
"After this we should show this to the King" (Anna)
"Yeah~" (Mina)
Thus the fight between the two Eternal Rivals came to another end
