As the explosion reached Gris he used Instantmove and vanished. As he moved he grabbed the spear next to him and launched it at Jaune who was in the sky. The explosion from a second ago finally caused an aftershock and that ended up making his throw go slightly off course.
Gris steadied himself before flying into the air and as he was about to throw another spear that had already replaced the previous one, Jaune darted forward to meet Gris in close combat. From what she knew of how he fought the other Primordials he seemed to not like to fight up close. She intended to use this weakness to her advantage. Or so she thought.
BOOM!
Her fist landed sending concentric circles outwards as Gris blocked with his sword. He then effortlessly twirled and deflected her fist away using her momentum against her.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Two figures blurred and disappeared and reappeared as they fought a dance of death. Jaune would throw punches so quickly that to a human it would look like a haze. While Gris would attack with different weapons switching them out so quickly it seemed to catch Jaune off guard, his other weapons not being used would automatically deflect and parry her attacks.
His whole demeanour seemed calm and graceful. Suddenly after a confrontation that lasted no more than a second considering the speed at which they moved, Gris deflected one more attack, a kick to his stomach, with his sword before using Instantmove backwards to gain some much needed space. He then switched to his greatsword within a moment. Lifting it above his head he quickly swung down. And what came after was apocalyptic.
The Aura Slash that was unleashed was nothing compared to training, this time he was going all out. The sky overhead split, the sound it let off was like a thunderclap and the damage it caused as it raced toward Jaune like a predator was nothing other than cataclysmic.
Jaune seeing this did not show worry she simply grinned wildly as she set up her own attack to counter. She shouted yet again "Nuclear Flame" This time, however, the amount of magic power put into the attack was absurd, as all the magicules in the air merged into a star-like purple light in the misty inky black sky and then simply all that was heard was a VWOOM and then BOOM!
It exploded like a dying star.
The waves of scorching hot heat pulsated outwards like a ripple of mass destruction and then the two attacks clashed. What happened next even shocked Gris.
The Aura Slash simply sliced through Jaunes attack like a knife through butter, no resistance, no vying for dominance. Just a simple cut. The anti-magic energy that imbued the strike seemed to make Jaunes attack simply weaken enough for the Aura Slash to cut it.
Jaune shouted angrily "What kind of cheat is that!?"
Before her anger got the better of her and she darted in for another altercation. Gris quickly pointed his hand towards her incoming form and used Anti-Magic Beam Emission shooting straight at her like a flood of despair. Jaune dodged at the last moment before they clashed once again.
BOOM! BOOM!
Punches and kicks were thrown as Gris started using a sword yet again to start his attacks as his other weapons deflected. However, Jaune was just like her favourite magic, explosive and powerful. She never let up, never gave him a time to breath. Like she was born for battle. A true battle junkie grinning and laughing the whole time.
Gris was using this as a chance to gain real experience using his new fighting style but was starting to lose ground. He then whispered "Agility" And "Strength" His speed and strength multiplied giving him some breathing room, if it was not for his Eyes of Darkness he might have had to resort to his other skills.
They both broke apart, as Jaune shouted over to him again while grinning "You are a lot different than the rumours! The way you fight and your presence seem in control and disciplined. From what they say, you are one who does not like to get into prolonged fights. Rather, using overwhelming magic power to win from range like some impassive corpse! Hahaha!"
Gris seemed to nod at her as he replied "I have had what some would call a transformative experience!"
"A what?" Jaune said perplexed.
"Never mind. I sent my people to go and strike a deal and yet you came to my territory and assaulted me during training. I have enjoyed gaining some real experience fighting a powerful foe, especially using my new fighting style. I have learned a lot. However, it is time to finish it now." He smiled at the end in a knowing way.
He lunged at her at full speed catching her off guard slightly, as he opened up with a throw of a spear and then into a halberd sweep attack. Jaune deflected the spear with her hand as it slightly burnt to the touch. She then went to leap back in the air to dodge the sweeping strike. Suddenly, more weapons emerged but instead of hovering around Gris they appeared above him in a semi circle. Only a few, maybe 10 or 20. Some of these weapons charged up beams of anti-magic and some simply joined Gris in his relentless assault against Jaune.
For the first time since this started Jaunes battle grin faltered as she found herself overwhelmed, dodging beams and weapon attacks from all around her and Gris.
She started losing her temper again as she shouted "You underestimate me!"
"Nuclear Cannon!" She called out, her command echoing all around them.
Suddenly, a powerful heat ray was conjured as wide as a building and shot near-instantly.
VWOOOOOOM BOOOOOOOOOM
It came flying at Gris like a dragon soaring through the air, strong and dangerous. Gris seemed to match Jaunes grin with a cruel one of his own. Then from the few weapons that he had around him, suddenly, thousands in a mere instant were created and more kept coming. As soon as they were materialised they would start charging and shooting beams of destruction 10, 20, 30, 60, 70 thousand weapons could be counted in the gloomy sky. The weapons fired beams of pure anti-magic at incredible speeds and power.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Gris strongest move against Jaunes.
Before they collided Gris threw up multiple Anti-Magic Shields and brought his floating weapons around him for extra protection. Jaune, on the other hand, seemed to be arrogantly confident in her strength and believed that her attack would destroy Gris. She did not bother to cover herself.
Then the two attacks collided.
The world stilled. The daemons all around the endless expanse which is Hell, seemed to stop as if an unnatural event is about to occur. The air and wind paused.
Then it happened. Simply one word was enough to describe it... calamitous.
------------------
Back at the meeting:
"So you are saying that if I don't involve myself with Gris and Rouges little rivalry then Gris will promise to not attack or come after me for 500 years? Hmm ~ But what if he falls right now?"
Throughout their whole meeting they could here the destructive forces of Gris and Jaune. They were like a disaster that shook Hell itself to its core.
Kali spoke up professionally but there was a slight defensive edge to it "He will fall? What planet are you on? Knowing him as I do he is just playing with his meal before he swallows her up. She made the mistake of biting off more than she can chew. A meathead you called her yourself right?"
"Indeed ~"
"She will end up without her freedom because of her actions today, but you, you can make the smart choice and agree to the deal and keep your independence. Unless.... you want to willingly join him? He is the best after all!" Kali said as she started to praise the only person that she truly cares for in this life.
"You have a lot of confidence in him, don't you?"
"Of course! There is not one being in this world that can beat him."
"What about you Blanc?"
"I would have rather died than served someone I thought was weak or an idiot. He is a lot of things but not those two. The way he easily beat me and Bleu earnt him my respect."
Out of nowhere an ear splitting whistle like a missile falling from the sky was heard before an explosion that rocked the realm of Hell to its very foundations was heard.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Kali spoke up with a barely contained smug smile on her pretty face "And he has won."
"Hmm~ we will see soon enough. Until then I will not agree." She then looked down at the daemon she had been using as a chair and started to do some... torturous things that made Blanc and Kali shiver.
'Damn sadist'
They both thought.
