Going all out

The beast's beak moved down aiming to bite off my head.

‘Time to get serious,’ I thought to myself, I can still get time to practice but now I am not going to take this half assed anymore.

As the beast brought down its head, I raised my arm to where its beak would be, I concentrated my mana in my arm and as the bird was getting my hand into its jaw, I used fire magic on the beak. I poured in more mana into the flame and the yellow flame turned bright blue, the beast fell back with its head on fire.

It let go of my shoulders and since I was now free from its grasp, I rose up in the air turning to face the beast, I used mana of the water attribute and after making a long string with it I then whipped it at the beast and slit its neck in an instant.

The bird began falling and as it did ice encased it and when it got to the ground it was swallowed by the ground.

The wounds on my body began healing and the armour repaired itself.
