Chapter 1212: A Spar With Zephy

"And I\'m going with Sylphy\'s mom and Mist, right?" Lara wondered. "Oh right, little Zephy will accompany us, isn\'t it?"

"Yes." Zephy nodded while eating a little muffin. "Mama said I should stick with her... Before, I didn\'t know if going to that Saintess inheritance would help, but now that I awakened those holy golden flames from the Phoenix, I might also be compatible!"

"Oh that\'s really great, Zephy!" Mist celebrated. "Well, I\'ll gladly be your partner in the little party we\'ll make!"

"Yeah!" Zephy was very excited actually.

"I\'m glad for you." I nodded, smiling. "Oh right, I did promise you some spar. Let\'s do it tomorrow morning then, it\'s getting a bit late already..."

"Sure! I guess it got too late too quickly after all." Zephy shrugged.

"Indeed... Ah, tomorrow we\'ll already be halfway through the week, huh?" I wondered.

"Vacations are almost over..." Lara sighed.

"Well, it\'s not like we\'ll depart the very next day. I think we\'ll need another week to prepare for our departure when we reach Agartha." Explained Zack. "Right Sylphy?"

"Yeah I think so, a week or a bit more." I nodded. "But still, we\'ve spent almost over a month here in Cloudia. And we\'ve both explored, found new friends, and battled mighty beasts all within this month. We\'ve gotten more memories in this month than in many before."

"Without a doubt." Nodded Luck. "Well, I wasn\'t present in the previous years with Lara, but yeah, this month has helped all of us get along better with each other... I have helped me get used to everyone, so it feels a bit sad that we need to separate..."

"I guess so..." Aquarina shrugged, trying to act tough. "So anyways, what\'s everyone\'s parties then?"

"Hmm, well, there\'s my party with Celeste and Celica. Then Zack and Luck. Third is Mist, Lara, and Zephy. And well, you\'re going alone with your parents, right?" I asked Aquarina.

"Yeah, it is an inheritance that they want only me to enter after all." Aquarina nodded. "Unfortunately... I wish I could bring you along, Sylphy, but mom said it would better to not force you to come, you wouldn\'t be accepted inside."

"Oh, that\'s... Well, too bad. I guess it\'s for the better for you anyways." I smiled. "I want you to get all the power possible in there."

"Yeah, I guess." Aquarina nodded.

The atmosphere became slightly silent for a bit, but then Lara and Celeste broke the ice again with their overly energetic and snarky comments, and we picked up the pace. We laughed, we ate, and we enjoyed the moment, without trying to think about being separated.

It wasn\'t just me and Aquarina, but all my friends felt this way with one another. Luck and Lara were developing something, but it seemed they won\'t be able to resume it any time soon. Zack and Mist were already established boyfriends, so separating was just as painful for them.

And well, we were all good friends, some consider one another as siblings because we are all so close and we grew together for so long, so this was indeed something painful we all shared together.

But that was how life was, not all the time it\'ll be like you want it to be. Sometimes you have to sacrifice time with others to prioritize something that could help you in the future. Even in this world of magic and monsters, I realized this truth never ceased to exist.

As the night came and we went to sleep, Aquarina embraced me lovingly in her big arms, as she kissed my lips and rubbed her nose with mine.

"I love you... I love you so much." She whispered to my ears.

"I love you too... Goodnight." I said, as I held her hand.

"Hmm, goodnight." She closed her eyes after rubbing her face on my hair and smelling the scent to relax.

Her body was very warm and comforting, I fell asleep immediately after our little kisses.

CLASH!

My sword and Zephy\'s sword clashed against one another.

After having woken up today and having a nice breakfast, we jumped immediately into that sparring session.

I knew I had to be gentle with my little brother, after all our strength was too far apart. But I began to regret having gone easy on him at the first five minutes, because he seemed a bit angry I was underestimating him.

"Big sis is not going serious!" He angrily said. "I\'ll show you that I\'m stronger now!"

Within a second, he disappeared from where he was located, reappearing right above me, his two swords flaring with golden flames and rapidly descending as he spun his little body in midair.

Amazing movement!

I decided to greet his attack with a single swing of my sword, after charging it with my Yggdragon\'s Dual Aura.

BAAAM!

An explosion of flames erupted upon both of our weapons making contact, pushing Zephy\'s little body several meters away.

"Ah, shit...! Zephy!"

I got worried I had gone too far, but he was unscathed. I noticed he had summoned the two golden wings from his Phoenix Physique, using them for protection.

His abilities were developing at an incredible speed. And his physique was even giving him a similar power to my own Draconification, although not complete.

He seemed to be able to choose which body part of the phoenix he could summon, limited to one type of invocation.

Rgith now, the most useful were the golden wings, made out of gold, orichalcum feathers.

It was insane he could grow them out of his own body like that!

"Don\'t worry about me, big sis...!" He said, his eyes changing color. One became deep red, the other gold. "I am in control of my abilities... I can do this! So please, show me more of your

power! I\'ll go all-out!"

FLASH!

He stepped into the empty air and reached me within a second, his two swords flaring with golden flames and black flames at the same time. His Auras were also Dual Auras, flowing with Golden Flames and Darkness and Blood Energies.

Combining them, Zephy swung his swords and created a half-moon shaped swing, releasing a powerful impact of Mana that pushed me back several meters.

CLAAASH!

Alright, if he insists, big sis will not hold back!
