If I have the time and can do so, I will write a chapter, otherwise no chapter.

I apologize for the lack of chapters these days.

Enjoy this one,it may be the only one for a while.

*****

It\'s sickening.

Shocking even.

He imitated my footwork, the way I hold my spear, and even my breathing.

"Hmm, so he\'s gaining some understanding of the art by copying your every move.

But...will he be able to copy it?

The way dragons circulate mana, their adeptness over it?

It should be impossible for a human."

Aranus commented inside my mind as he observed Ezra.

He is not helping right now.

And worst of all, Ezra has found out weakness in my instant teleportation.

Whilst fighting with the Sword Saint, He told me how he found out about my Teleportation.

\'You didn\'t realize it yourself? Your eyes practically give the location of your teleport to your opponent easily, If your enemy is smart and has found that glaring weakness, I suggest you don\'t use it, or else your opponent can use it to trap you.\'

Damn, I can\'t depend on my teleportation much huh.

Fucking hell.

*Clang*Clang*

Our spears clashed, and he was trying to stab my eyes and I did my best to avoid it.

"You\'re quite good with the spear."

And then suddenly, like all cliche fight fashion, the enemy starts talking mid-fight.

I stayed quiet and tried to block his attacks whilst trying to land a few of mine but failing miserably at it.

"Oh come on, shy?"

What is this bastard planning?

The wind at his feet is already making it hard for me to follow his movements.

And now this useless banter of his is making it even harder to focus.

"I\'ve never fought a spatial awakened before...so tell me, is that all the space element can do?"

Oh? I feel offended.

Fine you bastard, have something new.

I thrusted my spear right at his face and opened a portal in between.

At the other end of the portal, I opened it beside his face. Behind is predictable.

And my new \'trick\' did the work.

Ezra immediately pulled his head back, But unfortunately for him, he was a tad bit too late, the tip of my spear grazed his nose and drew blood.

He immediately continued the motion of him moving his head back to land a kick on my shin, which hurt.

"How\'s that new trick?"

He stayed quiet as I opened my mouth for the first time.

Then, displaying a smile, he muttered.

"Good."

*****

*Clang**Clang*

"Is Ezra going easy?"

"He has to be.."

"...that spatial awakened is holding up quite well."

The crowd muttered as they watched the fight ensue.

The spear blades collided with each other, leaving flashes of white and grey mana.

Wind clashed with Ice and A Slight amount of Space.

Richard watched the battle go on, whilst Alice, who was beside him, was live sending this to someone else.

[Why is the boss not tr-serious?]

The voice on the other side stumbled for a bit.

"What do you mean?"

[...boss isn\'t seriously fighting?]

"Kazikato, is what you are saying true?"

Suddenly, Richard asked Kazikato who replied.

[Yeah, If the boss is serious, he can win.

And if he loses, he won\'t be losing easily.]

Richard and Alice stayed silent, contemplating Kazikato\'s words.

[Anyways, I\'m going to go sleep, don\'t wake me up.]

"..."

"..."

The call ended, and Alice and Richard silently stared at the phone and Kazikatos\'s Audacity.

The clashes wind and ice continued, and Richard Focused his attention on Logan, the so-called referee of this match.

"Oh come on! Show me some new tricks!"

I was being pressured by Ezra more and more, and slowly being driven into a corner.

*Clang!**Clang!*

"Why?! Want another cut on your face?!"

I responded.

"Hah!If it means I get to know more about your attribute, Gladly!"

Shit, he keeps cornering me again and again.

And I am trying my best not to use anything related to my art.

So...if it has come to this then...

Hand-to-hand combat it is.

I maneuvered my spear around Ezra\'s, stopping his spear, and moved in and landed an elbow on his face.

I then let go of my spear and then prepared to punch him in the liver.

\'Any attack to the liver, if powerful enough, can paralyze your opponent.\'

That was what the sword saint said, but I don\'t think I will find out if it was true or not today, the bastard blocked the hit with his spear.

I grabbed the spear and threw it away, and now both of us were unharmed.

I would later realize I should have just kept myself to the spear.

Hand-to-hand combat was a stupid decision against him, even with my body.

He immediately began a barrage of jabs and punches that were difficult to dodge.

I tapped as many punches as I could to throw them off course but the quantity was just too many.

And to add to that, Spiral columns of wind had formed on his hands.

That could be handled until he started flying encased in a tornado on his lower half.

And then, multiple blades of wind fired from the tornado and launched themselves at me.

*Sching!*

The wind sliced the air itself and reached me, I dodged the first few by just tilting my head, and took the weaker ones with my body.

They didn\'t hurt much.

I charged at him, whilst he was in the air.

To reach him, I create paths of ice and did across them as I tried to get closer and closer to the damn bastard.

I fired multiple beams of ice as well, and then jumped when I was near him.

I landed on his upper body, away from the tornado on his lower body.

And prepared both of my elbows, and mashed them in his face.

Right in his eyes, he aimed for mine, I\' aim for his.

Ezra, descended pretty quickly as I ravaged his face with my elbows.

And then It was my turn to be suddenly pushed away by an immense pressure of wind that erupted from his body.

I, who was sent flying, conjured ice to soften my fall, and when I looked back in his direction.

Hundreds, no Thousands of blades of wind, Other constructs all filled my sight.

And I protected myself all I could with my mana.

*BOOOM!*

​ I was sent flying once again and littered with injuries this time.

"Cough..."

"Calm your breathing, don\'t lose focus, and why are you putting so much focus into hand-to-hand combat?"

I coughed from the aftermath of the attack, and Aranus asked me in my mind.

"I don\'t know, I\'m just trying to use what the sword saint taught me, isn\'t that why you told me to become his student, to learn how to manipulate aura and how to fight?"

Ezra and I engaged in battle again after I asked Aranus.

However, I was repeatedly getting bested.

"I advised you to go the sword saint to learn how to fight yes, but I didn\'t tell you to just focus on hand-to-hand combat.

And about that Aura, even I was oblivious about it."

"We Dragons are beings of mana, Aura is something unknown to us, We use mana along with other fighting techniques intricately to attack.

We don\'t entirely focus on physical combat, we are masters of mana, and our ways to utilize mana and our strengths are unparalleled."

As I went flying away by another attack, I was met with the same pattern of thousands of wind blades attacking me.

"You are dragon Alan Peccator."

He said, and I replied.

"I know that!"

My injuries were bad now, although I am confident my bloodline will heal them.

And if anybody asks, I\'ll just tell them it was a skill.

And this attack may prove to be too much.

"Then fight like a Dragon!"

And as he said that, suddenly an idea emerged in my mind.

I opened a large portal in front of me to absorb all the wind blades, and then opened small ones all around Ezra and he now faced the brunt of his attack.

I thought if I opened a big (Entry Point) portal, which absorbed the attacks and then connect it to multiple smaller portals (exit points), I can use his attack against him more unpredictably than just opening two portals.

Ezra immediately absorbed his mana back and the blades of wind disappeared.

Afterward, he flew straight to me, encasing his hand in a blade of wind.

Wanna come closer huh?

Fine, come as close as you want!

I\'ll show you how someone with the purest mana, the best control of mana fights!

I\'ll show you how a Dragon Fights!
