"I'm glad they're this eager. I can also present myself to be challenged by them."
Fleur said after being infected by their eagerness.
"It's fine. You can stay and watch me from here."
"There you go again… Alright. I'll watch you from here."
Fleur could only shake her head at how shameless my words were. In any case, she was already kind of used to it. During the time since Boris' left the two of us alone, I used that time to know her more. It's different than when we're busy infiltrating the Noxian Capital. Yesterday we could only talk for 10 minutes before moving again. That's why this time, we got into a serious discussion.
To know each other we asked questions that we wanted to know and during all that, I kept on hitting on her whenever I would find a chance. At first, she's oblivious about it but after numerous attempts, she finally caught on. That immediately made her blush before composing herself almost immediately.
As I stepped into the training field, Elmer, the most eager among the three to challenge me, jumped in and put his hands together.
It's a gesture of respect.
As soon as I acknowledged him, he instantly cast his most used spell.
An 8-nodes Wind Elemental Spell which created mini-hurricanes that shot flames. His main Core is Wind Element and he formed three Fire Secondary Cores. Since he's already at the 4th Stage of Elemental Fusing Realm, he already merged four of his Secondary Cores which consisted of the three Fire Secondary Cores.
Because of that, his main element, Wind, acquired searing properties. Instead of cooling someone with his Wind, he's better at using it along with his flames to burn someone.
A few seconds after unleashing his spell, he added to more resulting in three mini-hurricanes which all homed towards me while shooting out flame blasts.
Well, since it's something produced by a Mortal, I have many ways to counter it or just endure it with my body. However, they eagerly wanted to improve so I have to show them that a Transcendent is invincible against a Mortal, no matter the tricks.
Ah. There's a trick that would be able to work. Ganging up on one and using underhanded methods. Their body count would pile up but at least they would be able to weaken one.
Yes, weaken. Because if things went bad for him, the Transcendent could just choose to abandon everything and flee.
After I deflected the few fire blasts the hurricanes shot towards me, I controlled the surrounding Elemental Energy in my hand. In just a few seconds, a dense amount of Elemental Energy was transformed into a sphere the size of a basketball.
As I controlled it to hover in front of me, I transformed it into a silvery-white Void Sphere after removing the existence of the other elements in it.
Upon seeing the ominous sphere in my hand which seemingly was trying to crack the space where it hovers, Elmer instinctively stepped back, controlling the three hurricanes to shield him.
But what I'm doing with it isn't over yet.
I produced two more Void Spheres which all hovered in front of me, shielding me from the continuous fire blasts.
Upon seeing his attacks become useless with just three spheres of energy, he pushed himself and added three more mini-hurricanes which lined up neatly to barrage the three Void Spheres.
However, ten seconds later, his six hurricanes started going out of control. By conjuring six of it, his Energy Control was split into six which resulted in his total control of his spells loosening up.
To prevent it from accidentally hurting someone, I sent the three Void Spheres to it to exhaust its power.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Under the eyes of everyone watching, when the spheres made contact with the hurricanes, they didn't produce any flashing effects. Instead, the spheres buried themselves inside the hurricanes before causing an implosion of Void Energy. The implosions sucked in the hurricanes they were enclosed in, trying to destroy the Wind and Fire Elemental Energy composing it.
Though the Void Spheres were not a Spell, it's enough to damage the foundation of his spells. By the time the implosion power produced by the spheres died down, three of the six Searing Hurricanes significantly lost its power. It still continued on its way but a simple wave of my hand put it to rest.
The other three that weren't affected by the Void Sphere finally went back in his control, however, Elmer instantly cancelled them because of the shame from his display. He purposefully exceeded the hurricanes he could stably control resulting in that accident.
He instantly bowed not only to me but to everyone who watched it.
"A Transcendent is really different, he didn't even use a spell to deflect his favorite spell."
"We'll also reach that Mara. Isn't that why we're here?"
The siblings commented and encouraged each other as they watched at the side while waiting for their turn.
Armel and Isabel who instead chose to take on two clones at the same time were at a distance. Within the timeframe wherein I stepped forward and until Elmer bowed in apologies, they were already thrashed by my clones more than three times.
Well, those clones were not standing still like me. It's an inevitable result when even just one was enough to thrash them.
"I'm not done yet. More!"
As if they practiced it countless times, the three of them shouted in unison when they all stood back up. Their eyes were burning in determination as they seemingly put their lives on the line to get some progress today.
After shouting that, they all turned to cast a spell by burning all of their Elemental Energy in a bid to at least one up a Transcendent and his clones.
Of course, since they're so eager to do this, I had the siblings stay who were already gearing up for their turn to step down.
It's a shame if I let these three down. After seeing two youngsters reach the threshold while they're stuck at their level for years, they wanted to catch up immediately.
To answer their determination, I'll be using them to grind my Spells that were still at the Beginner Mastery.
Ah. That sounds like a rude answer to that, eh?
In any case, using them to grind my Spells doesn't mean I will be holding back. I will let them taste my strongest Spell.
I took out the Willful Sword and held it in my hand before casting the 6-nodes Elemental Spell made from enhancing Air Bullet. Just like their weapons that could enhance Energy output, it somehow got the same function albeit a little weaker. By running the Flux Energy to power the Spell Nucleus through it, the Spell will be enhanced by its lightning properties.
The same kind of Elemental Spell was being cast by the four clones as I controlled them to mimic what I am doing.
Faced with the lightning-enhanced spells, the three Human elites looked at each other and before deciding to band together. The siblings and Fleur who were watching at the side kept their eyes on focus. Expectant of the upcoming result.
To counter what's about to come, Elmer, Armel and Isabel all decided to cast their strongest Spells. And along with it, the three also chose to conjure their Domains.
As different variations of Elemental Energy surged in their position, their Domains started to materialize.
Elmer's domain conjured a zone with very strong winds and varying degrees of humidity. His other two Secondary Cores were of Water Element with one of it already fused into his Main Elemental Core. By utilizing his Secondary Cores to complement his Wind Element, his domain became a place one wouldn't want to step into due to how it would be hard to breathe inside or adapt to the everchanging air humidity.
Armel's domain conjured Earthen Pillars which he could control either to become his armor which increased his offense and defense or to control it to restrict his enemies entering his Domain. Compared to Elmer's domain, his domain looked particularly simple but the strength he could exert in it was sufficiently more destructive.
Lastly, Isabel's domain conjured a wide expanse filled with clear water wherein occasional Tidal Waves would engulf her whole Domain. Like a Mermaid in her natural habitat, Isabel could submerge in it to seek an opportunity to strike her enemy when he was unaware and was busy dodging the tidal waves.
By making use of their Domain's properties as well as the Spell they're trying to cast, the three readily waited for my Spell to be unleashed.
Well, since I already decided to use that as there's not really a lot of choices, I tried matching the Elements to their main Elemental Cores.
The Wind Element variation of 6-nodes transformed Air Bullet for Elmer.
The Earth Element variation for Armel.
And lastly, the Water Element variation for Isabel.
As the three different yet similar Elemental Spells were unleashed from me and my clones, the three readied themselves and hastened the casting of their spells to match it.
Pouring in their Elemental Energy up to their last drop, their Domains tried their best to resist it.
However, the five Manifold Bursts stood strong even if they're travelling inside their Domains. Especially the one sent by my real body.
Fortunately for them, their Spells finished in the nick of time before it hit them.
Bang!
The explosions of Elemental Energy instantly filled my eyes before three figures could be seen advancing forward, with their weapons in hand.
Upon seeing that, I could only smile at their bravery to try and sneak attack in the midst of that.
Well then, it's time for them to rest.
