43 - Nine vs. Fragments
Erizo didn't know how much time had passed, after all time was a concept he hadn't introduced yet but was somehow still at play. He could see it when Geral used his skill. See it when he was slightly faster than the fragments ripping their bodies into nothing.
Energy manifestation aided the Azkolves to coat their claws in energy and use them in close combat for the ones who leaped straight on to the battle. While still using spells at the same time.
He already taught Tepes the Puritant spear and flames of purity and already began forming other spells for the others to use while encouraging them to experiment and learn things themselves too.
While the Puritant spear and Flames of purity were fire based, his Azkolves we're quick to show him after his encouragement that it could be used in whatever element base.
Soon enough each element class had their own spell variant with different effects. Some more deadly while.others were negligible leading to them having to create more spells for their offense.
As such Erizo was looking at his new lists of spells that he had gotten from the other Azkolves. Though varied they were each good enough.

Erizo couldn't help.but smile as his arsenal kept increasing while he and the right with Vailex at his side advanced. Most times the Azkolves spared his sword a glance a Flint always flashing in their eyes before they focused back on their fights.
As the pushed at the fragments Erizo began taking note of the Azkolve's battles watching not only to rate them but to learn as their fight was unarmed just like though he was with Vailex he was yet to pick the sword personally.
Dumdriel was the slowest of all eight. His gait slow as he moved ahead unrelenting and unmoved. His immovable formats him like a mountain in the part of the fragments. His claws both hands and feet flew about eviscerating the fragments in all directions.
The fact that there was no blood helped matters a bit for Erizo though for the Azkolves or wasn't fun as the lived for the warmth of blood and flesh. The fragments were anything but warm.
From Dumdriel's hands huge blasts of rocks slammed into the waves again and again driving them back. An earthen hammer formed in his grasp before he slammed it down.on the fragments. A boom resounded.
Melding the stone into a spear he buried it in the crowd ahead before clapping. The stone spear exploded sending debris in differed.t directions.
'Defence' Erizo chimed noting Dumdriel's high defensive traits but lack of good offence.
Then there was Tepes and Tarin. One blasted hot dragon fire around while the other kept releasing black flames. The fragments about we're being pushed and eviscerated back and away from Dustroz.
Tepes entire arms and legs were ablaze his eyes golden while tbe shoulder eyes were crimson with fire. Added with the ENERGY AURA and the flames he spat he was the literal deadliest damage giver on the team. Steam rose from his body as he raced over the expanse atop the fragments while burning and slaughtering them.
While the were using the fragments to run about each of them could use their divinity now to oat in the expanse keeping them from floating off.
Tarin looked like a shadow, in fact he was almost as identical to the anti-life if not for his golden gaze. The shoulder eyes were only visible thanks to the white of his cornea if not it would have been just another black spot of his body.
Shadowy fumes left his claws and legs as he proved about while slaughtering the crowd. He was the only Azkolve who's use of the dark made his energy a dimmer hue of gold unlike the rest.
He ripped fragments apart, tore their shadowy bodies and used his spells to burn them with tbe black flames. Soon he formed a black sword with the black flames and began using it to cut and slice through the crowd. The sword copied its design of Vailex remaining unseen and blending into the slowly darkening expanse.
When both stopped using their elements their claws and fangs were at work. Both stationed at tbe sides were unstoppable and ruthless. Tearing and shredding fragments into nothing while covering their fangs, claws and fists with ENERGY AURA as the rest were doing.
Ausal was graceful. The Azkolve was elegantly dancing through the fragment crowd silver fur and hair twirling in the winds that surrounded her. Several wind slashes that Erizo had shown her flew about slicing powerfully through the crowd.
Her wind slashes were nothing like that of humans. Compared to it the name of her spell should have been changed. In fact it was so powerful that it could be considered the main spell while the wind slash humans used could be tbe watered down and nerfed version.
Huge balls of wind dropped into crowd exploding and tearing the fragments about. Her hands rotating as she enhanced her fluidity with the wind while claws raked through the mass of anti-life surrounding her while coated with ENERGY AURA.
She ducked a fragment on four legs before she pulled it back with a minuscule wind them took its head with her flowing claws. She turned in different ways various dings resounding in her head as she fought.
There was chaos on different parts of the battle, both literally and metaphorically. Syrian was the only Azkolve who hovered back with Erizo spamming light spears and tossing into.the battle field at different locations.
Her light was the most destructive of all the elements to the fragments being their basic opposite. The fragments burned in their thousands as the the space the took was quickly taken and their armies was pushed back by only eight new comers.
'This is indeed faster '.Erizo thought.
But then there was Geral and Juju. Both were literally tbeaddest of the group. Juju smiling while tossing quake spears that shattered the realities around the fragments and crushed them in it's environment while Geral the only one of all.the Azkolves with a different none element class used it for one purpose.
Pause and play.
Each re he did it was undetected to all but Erizo who.would note the others halting even tbe anti-life fragments and then with a borrowed spell like flame ball he would wreck an area before moving on.
Juju was basically his protection since he had no affinity without of the spells he was using they were weaker compared to the others uses. While everyone could use each other's spells those like Syrin with Tarin and Tepes with Beleza could not use the other's spells simce the elements were opposing the other.
Beleza while calm was also intuitive and always trying to adapt to the others spells and make his more refined by using the others spells. Each of his spells like Domeplode and Tri frost were more deadly than most spells.
But the could always adapt the others spells and even improve on it. Their voices yelled through the battleground talking amongst themselves as the advanced unstoppable. Only.Dumdriel barely said a word only responding with a few sentences when spoken to.
Surely but soon enough the blue sun created was nothing but a speck in the distance and here Erizo left them.
