Masaru VS Vanyel [The Colosseum Of Madness]

Vanyel was no stranger to enhanced attacks. However, this one was...odd. Using spiritual energy to enhance his attacks instead of Chi. Did this one not contain Chi? Hm. Vanyel grinned as the attack to his leg simply made hundreds of cracks within his Xinfeng shield. His "barrier" of Chi covering his entire body flashed black as the barrier was hit with such major damage. Without that barrier, his leg would most likely had been broken. As Vanyel quick broke off to make some distance between himself and Masaru, his eyes diverted to his leg. His grin grew wider. What other tricks did this human have?

Questions for later. However, these questions most likely would not be answered. Vanyel was getting very bored with this fight. It was very boring and stale already. It sickened him to continue this fight. The grin that Vanyel had soon faded, and moved into a frown. A sigh left him as the raging aura of Awakening continued to flow wildly around him. The maniac's eyes diverted to the ground, and his eyes slowly gazed up, revealed the two crimson orbs in his head. Vanyel slowly raised his arms, his shoulders lifting to form a shrug.

"Well. I'm bored wit' ya. Thought ya'd be more interestin'. Welp. Ya arent'. Thou art boring as FUCK."

As he said this, he would slowly grin, The sword that resided in his left hand would then start to move upwards with the blade pointing towards the ground. As the blade slid into his sheath, Vanyel would then move the dagger he held in his other hand toward the leather sheath at his side, re-fastening the smaller weapon to his shoulder. Vanyel took a deep breath, before exhaling. As his chest heaved, the small, loose metal objects and trinkets on his jacket would jingle. Twisting his head to the right and left, a crack could be heard from the neck of Vanyel.

Moving one of his hands to his shoulder and gripping tight on it, Vanyel would then start to roll his shoulder. Multiple cracking noises came from him as the shoulder was rolled. Performing the same action with his other shoulder, his promptly ignored the tiny bolts that were being fired at him by the small things that Masaru had seemed to create from nothing. How dumb. Hiding behind his little toys. Another sigh left him as he shrugged once more. The bolts that hit him really didn't hurt anymore.

Spreading his legs a small portion, and spreading his arms out in a sumo stance, Vanyel grinned more and rolled his neck. Slowly placing one foot forward and turning his body by the slightest, Vanyel took a new combat stance. The snake-like tongue of the human slid out his mouth, slithering over his lips like a lion admiring his prey from the bushes. Putting pressure into the front of his foot, Vanyel slowly crouched down, before his eyes would glow blue. Jiaodian activating. As they glowed briefly, his eyes would close.

"....It's time to finish this."

As his eyes closed, something would happen. Three small black circles would appear in three different places. Two would appear on each side of Vanyel's body. While one would appear underneath Masaru's feet. As these black circles formed, black chains would slowly begin to crawl out. Chains that would grow spikes around to 3-4 inches. The two circles around Vanyel would create chains that would coil and slither around him, with spikes protruding from them. However, Vanyel was perfectly safe.

The circle at Masaru's feet would cause non-spiked chains to slowly slither out from the black void they came from. The black links made of Chi would slowly coil and tighten around his body. These chains were meant to bind him in place. As this was happening, the chains circling Vanyel would retract their spikes, before dissolving. The black substance the chains had turned into would slowly travel over to where Masaru was standing. However, the person apparently still intended for the fight to last, since they decided to throw another spear at him. Vanyel simply sighed as this happened. Opening his eyes, revealing them to be a light blue, he could see it.

The speed of the spear. What it was made of. Time wasn't slowing down, but instead, Vanyel was seeing the spear more clearly. Every little speck of energy that was formed on this spear was as clear as day to see with Vanyel's current eyes. Vanyel slid his tongue over his teeth, before leaping forward at immense speeds. The black substance that the chains had turned to surged to stay by Vanyel's side. Zooming past the spear, Vanyel's only intentions were to get close. With his immense speed in Awakening, it shouldn't have been a problem.

Speeding close to Masaru, with no mercy, Vanyel thrust his arms and legs out to perform an astonishing amount of highly powerful blows to Masaru's legs. This would most likely weaken his legs. This was due to the martial arts that Vanyel was using. The Tolling Bell Kick focused on high speed, and highly powerful kicks to dizzy an opponent and knock them off balance. With so many attacks being executed, Masaru would most likely have a hard time blocking them, or recovering from them.

Without stopping his assault, the black substance around Vanyel would surge forward, forming black chains once more. These chains were equal to Vanyel in strength. As they formed, they would wrap and they would wrap around him TIGHT. As the ends of the chains would implant themselves into the ground, hoping to bind him in place, the next thing Vanyel would do is break off his attack to quickly reach into his jacket, pulling out four small kunai-like weapons. With these he would throw them at Masaru's hands and feet. If these penetrated him, he would be hurled to the ground and pinned.

With all of these methods of pinning him down, Vanyel knew that at least one of the had to work. After this, Vanyel would crouch down, placing a single hand on the ground, and a blue transmutation circle would slowly form around Masaru. This circle would extend to half a mile long. As this formed, Vanyel would only have to say the incantation of this Chi Ritual. His lips parted to speak.

"Dragon King of The Eastern Seas! Fuel me with your hatred for the Third Lotus Prince! Allow me control over the water so that I may strike down with LIGHTNING AND THUNDER!!"

As this was said, a single kanji letter would appear in the middle of the circle that had formed, directly underneath where Masaru would be. Denko. The kanji symbol for lightning. As the symbol formed itself, black clouds would form above Masaru. Stratus clouds. A storm was coming. These clouds would darken any light within the circle. The clouds would flash and spark with lightning. Vanyel grinned as his Awakening aura powered on strong. A small patch of lightning in the center of the clouds would glow blue, and a single, but immensely powerful bolt of lightning would come crashing down with immense force.

The mere impact of the volt against the ground of the stage would caused the entire area to rumble. As this bolt would make contact with the stage, hundreds of lightning bolts would shoot outwards, racing towards the limit of the Chi Ritual's radius. As the bolts raced towards the end of the range of the ritual, the single bolt of lightning that had began this chain of events would continue to rain down thunder hell upon the center of the field. The bolt in the center was the one that was causing so many bolts of lightning to rush off.

With the bolts racing to reach the end of the chi ritual circle, they would pick up speed and eventually reach the end. However, rather than continue to rage outwards to the rest of the arena, then would curve back, and race back towards the center. As they did, it would cause a minor amount of increased pain. However, the ritual would then slowly fade from view, with the bolts of lightning retreating back into the sky, before vanishing. However, this entire ordeal would most likely be twice as painful and devastating, due to Vanyel being in Awakening.

With this done, Vanyel would then stand as his ritual faded away. The forced, heaved breaths of Vanyel were loud. He had used the rest of his Chi to cast that. There was no possible way he could get out unscathed. With a half mile radius and at least three different binding methods used to get him in the right position, he should not have been able to escape. Hell, even a demon as durable as Fjell wasn't able to get out of it unscathed. Vanyel would look at the smoke that had filled the arena due to his ritual. Turning around silently, he would begin to walk away.

However, he stopped. Turning back around, he would stare at the smoke, before drawing the sword from his back belt loop. The sword he didn't even get to use. Looking at the clean steel blade, Vanyel would turn the weapon over so that the blade was facing the ground. Thrusting his arm down, he would firmly implant the sword into the ground. Looking at the smoke once again, Vanyel would say these parting words.

"Well, kid. You showed spirit. You had more bravery than almost anyone else I met. Get stronger kid. You show potential."

With that, Vanyel would then turn around, walking away. It was over. Time for round two.

[OOC Note: With a ritual of this power being used, Masaru would not be dead. If anything, he would be knocked unconscious. Vanyel is giving him a chance to live. Both fighters would be in need of rest after this fight. Neither combatant would be in any shape to fight after Vanyel using this.]
