The Mage and The Prince II

This time, the prince swung his flaming blade once more and easily cut through the one-meter-thick ice block in his path, completely obliterating the obstacle. The spectating crowds cheered even louder as their prince destroyed the ice block and continued towards the mage.

Within moments, he had reached Artium and swung his sword once more, aiming at his chest. Art, once more surprised by the prince’s tenacity, barely managed to summon the Bone Blade to block the prince’s swing.

The two swords struck each other with a clang, as the flaming sword was stopped in its track. Charles was even more surprised that a mere mage was able to match his strength and block his sword. However, he did not lose confidence and began to swing his sword with surgical precision.

“Haha, you fool! You dare to clash swords with me.” The prince shouted as he attacked with even more vigor.
