The Arks 12 Galaxian Vs Valokian

As promised, Z was now in charge of training the two brats in both combat and Magecraft. Trying to achieve the goal of giving all Mages a haven to live in gave hint that they had to polish up their skills. This meant that fighting each other would be essential to grow in strength. Baldwin did volunteer, but he might end up killing the two kids by accident instead of training them.

"Hm, show me the power of a Valkyrie," commanded Z as he threw out some Kunais. Mavislin blocked them with ease and smiled. Her wings were huge as she summoned them as a s.h.i.+eld. As mentioned before, she was now unable to fight on the ground.

"No can do unless you want to die," replied the Valkyrie, plucking out a single feather from her wings. Z looked confused.

"I don't carry around any weapon, so this is the only thing closest to a physical weapon," she explained as she waved the feather around. With one firm flick of the hand, the feather extended out into a long golden whip. As the two continued to battle, Mavislin was able to deflect the oncoming Kunais, be it one or ten. But after a while, things got bored.

"Hm... Kinda boring using just Kunais and a s.h.i.+ny whip. How about I show you my other power?" The child's ears perked up upon hearing that suggestion.

"So, what else have you got up your sleeves?" she asked, smoothing out the whip with her hands. From another view, it looked like she was holding an invisible weapon due to the fact it was broad daylight. This made it difficult for Z to aim his Kunais as well.

"Galaxian Magecraft," said Z, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with pride as his jet black eyes sparkled. Her head tilted in confusion once more. A whole new type of Element that she has not seen before. This was going to be spectacular to witness and fight against, judging by the Aura that Z was giving out. Ditching his Kunais, he stuck his arm out and opened his palm. A cloud of concentrated stardust appeared. The Valkyrie watched in awe as he grabbed hold of a bunch of stardust and smashed his hand into the ground. The floor beneath them shook and stopped. Mavislin scanned the area to see what had happened. Had they moved? Mavislin was on a whim looking around as she took notice of the sky. It was as if someone had pulled a dark blue blanket on top of the bright sky from earlier and had poked holes in it for some light to pa.s.s through. She then caught a glimpse of Z's smile as he gazed at the night sky, with the same pa.s.sion as the bewildered girl.

"Pretty, isn't it?" asked Z, as he approached Mavislin. She nodded, eyes still fixated on the night sky.

"Welcome to the realm I dwell in. It's called Harmony Of The Cosmos," said Z, proudly. She was still breathless as the cheerful girl looked around.

"It's one of the Lost Elements. Galaxian Magecraft, otherwise known as the Power of the Stars. It is a form of Magecraft which uses the Element of the Stars to fuel spells. I can't blame you for not knowing, since there only a handful of us left. I can't teach anyone the Elements unless I pa.s.s on my blood or get a child," explained Z.

"At least you are not alone, you've got us," replied the smiling Valkyrie. Too cheerful, thought Z. The years to come would be a whole lot more difficult to smile so might as while be happy now.

"Even if we are from the stars, we can't help but admire our origins," commented Z. She nodded once more, still in a trance.

"Now then, star gazing aside, check your surroundings. Should be in full effect now. You are free to unleash your strongest spells and power against me," explained Z, folding his arms and smirking. Mavislin looked at him in wonder as she placed out her hands. The Elements on the palm of her hand were now much bigger as compared to when she was at the tryouts. Her wings were gleaming as she flew around. As if it wasn't big enough, her wings had grown even further. Each time she flew, the wind started to pick up. The area was huge, so Z was not really affected.

"So I guess you are ready for combat?" His hands were full of Ice and Stardust, a ball of pale blue and galaxy-colored on each palm. That was a silent agreement on both sides as they lunged at each other. Within this realm, they had the luxury to fight however they like, without the limitation of an angry mob or a playful Raiyen coming towards them. Their fists met with tenacity as they continued on, the smiles never leaving their faces.
