Between the amount of blood drained by Ketsu to ensure his illusion spell was strong enough to ensnare everyone in the man's Peerage, the physical toll his body suffered as he sped through the battlefield, and casting a shield spell to protect himself, Koneko, and Gasper from Akeno's spell, Lelouch found himself quite tired.
But the battle was not yet over, as the slowly limping form of a Knight made her way over to the odd trio.
Lelouch allowed his Arm of the Blackest Night to manifest over his arm, the violet orb pulsing in tune with his heartbeat. "Go." Lelouch murmured to the Bishop and Rook. "Try and help Akeno with the Queen and Bishop, I'll handle her.
" With a soft and determined look, respectively, Koneko and Gasper followed his order, taking flight towards the area of the battlefield where lightning clashed with explosions.
Surprisingly, the Knight, whose armor certainly appeared to have seen better days, allowed them passage unmolested.
This prompted a raised eyebrow from Lelouch as he had flared his own wings in preparation in case he found himself needing to guard Koneko and Gasper's passage.
"I am a Knight." The woman spoke simply as she leveled her blade at Lelouch. "I will not fight those with whom I have no reason." It was a chivalrous answer, one he didn't expect from a Devil. Lelouch snickered, a Devil Knight that believed in chivalry.
How amusing.
"Tell me, are you prepared to die?" Lelouch asked as he flexed his clawed fingers, preparing himself for combat as he slowly allowed his Wrath to filter into his mind.
"Why do you ask?" The armored Knight asked, frowning at the odd question. It was rare, but death in Rating Games was not unheard of.
Still, actively attempting to kill a participant was frowned upon as it limited their ability to participate in future Games if they were killed.
And Devils did not like having potential future entertainment taken from them by someone.
Words came unbidden to his lips as he held his left arm out to his side, powers pulsing within his core.
Smirking as he followed his instincts as he had when he had regained the facsimile of his old Geass powers, Lelouch responded.
"The only ones who should kill, are those who are prepared to be killed." A magic circle flashed just beyond Lelouch's palm and the Knight suddenly found himself holding a very familiar sword in the palm of his hand.
The sight of the blade in his hand was a surprising one, but it drew a twisted chuckle from Lelouch regardless of his surprise.
To think he would find himself fighting with the very blade that had taken his life.
This was just too damn funny! A maniacal laugh escaped his lips as he charged forward to engage the injured Knight with the new blade in his hand.
While Lelouch found himself battling the Knight, Koneko and Gasper quickly found themselves embroiled in a fight against Riser's remaining Bishop, looking far more recovered than she had any right to be considering the power behind Akeno's attack that destroyed the gym.
"Hot." Koneko mumbled as she wiped some sweat from her forehead before it could get into her eyes, the flames of the Phenex girl coming too close for her own comfort as the Rook dodged backwards with a decent jump.
If this was what it was like fighting Riser's younger sister she didn't want to imagine how hot his flames were, incineration would be a painful way to be retired from this Game.
The Bishop was gasping for air as she paused in her attacks to try and gauge what her next move should be. "You're pretty quick for a Rook." The blonde growled as flames flickered in and out of existence beyond her hands, revealing she hadn't quite mastered her powers just yet.
While there was a good distance between Koneko and her, the Nekoshou could hear her opponent just fine.
Unfortunately, Gasper wasn't exactly in any position to freeze the blonde Phenex, her flames blocking his line of sight sealed both herself and the white-haired teenager inside an arena of flame.
Thus allowing for some uninterrupted conversation as both combatants thought through their next moves.
Subtly sniffing the air slightly while her opponent blathered on, Koneko carefully attempted to pinpoint Gasper's location outside the arena of fire she found herself in.
Maintaining this field had to take a lot out of the flaming girl, so Koneko guessed that it was mainly in place to block sight and prevent Gasper from being able to use his Sacred Gear to help Koneko.
However, despite that, the fire had stirred up quite a bit of the wind which made it difficult for the Nekoshou to pinpoint which way she'd need to follow the scent to find her friend through these irritatingly hot flames.
Suddenly, well beyond the arena of flames, a massive explosion rang out across the battlefield that sounded eerily like a Dragon's roar of challenge.
Punching the ground to force the stone loose, the petite Devil grabbed a stone the size of a small boulder and tossed it at her opponent after she was distracted.
The attack didn't hit her opponent, the blonde managing to send forth a stream of fire to intercept her quickly launched attack, but it gave Koneko enough of an opening to make a break towards the wall of flame she judged to have the weakest strength.
Reluctantly, the Rook jumped through the fire, heedless of portions of her clothes being burned away, as she just managed to escape.
Gasper was gaping as he stared at her before moving to try and pull her further from the flames towards the edge of the forest. Towards safety.
Koneko, with her arm thrown over Gasper's shoulder, allowed herself to be helped as the Rook and Bishop quickly retreated as the arena began to dissipate.
Patting herself down to put out the flames, the petite girl frowned at how exposed she found herself. "Great, I liked this too." She mumbled quietly, frowning at her exposed right breast.
It wasn't fully exposed, but it was enough to present a weakness should someone manage to directly strike her skin.
