Capítulo 15: Ready or not

~Caleb
۶Ty
◯Trevor
Caleb's adoptive family was blown out of the window towards the champions below. Fortunately for them, a huge jelly-like blob of light was floating in midair with it's demonic wings ready to catch them. When they landed on the blob, this swallowed them whole, imprisoning them inside of it as air was able to get inside.
Meanwhile, Trevor and the rest of the champions were finishing the last of the now fleading mercenaries with an array of different elements. Caleb's face was still hidden behind a light sheet of light that hid his true appearance from the rest of the world, this is what was known as illusion magic.
Ty gave a mental command to Blob in order to release the six prisoners. Caleb's parents, his twin sisters and brothers. Their faces were filled with fear as they were now realizing the powers they had somehow offended and were now getting their revenge, no one able to stop them.
"What do you want? I'll give you gold, I know they're paying you, I-I'll double it!"
When he heard these words, Caleb came forth and took control of the body, his rage palpable in the air that every champion bowed their heads in respect and fear that this anger would somehow find it aimed at them. He then slapped the kneeling man, spit on the floor and said.
"You disgust me old man, get up and fight me like you always did."
When he heard this, Sir Thornwood looked back at his now sobbing family, regained his compulsion his face was full of confidence as he had now seen the kid in battle and knew not to underestimate him, plus, he had seen him use shadow, ice and fire magic, that made him a tricaster which meant the possibilities of him being stronger than that were very small.
"When I beat you kid, you'll give me that bow and blade and your life, deal?"
"Only after I kill you first"
They then walked to opposite sides of the backyard leaving a few tens of meters between them. Sir Thronwood started by casting a few floating light balls that illuminated the entire area around him, not allowing a single shadow to prevail.

"Ladies and gentleman, the time is already here, the duel to decide whether he is ready or not"
A man in his 20s announced to the other nine figures seated around a circular table in an unknown location. They were the only thing present in the void surrounding them, not a single light or life form could be sensed but there was an overwhelming magical power converged in this location. The man had black long hair that reached his shoulders, it complemented his completely black eyes that gave him a demonic look.
"Dramatic as usual Garzar"
The one speaking was another man with pale skin, white short hair and pure white pupils. In the human world, this complexity was characteristic of a race from the Frozen Wastelands that laid in the Kingdom of Exclus, which was exactly where he was from.
"Let him be Hussen, he is rather amusing"
This voice belonged to a woman that had a tan skin, long purple hair and purple eyes that flashed with electricity now and then. She was rather beautiful but not as beautiful as the dryas sitting next to her. Nya was in her human form now with her green hair and eyes being the only thing that gave her identity as a Primordial away.
She had managed to reunite the ten elemental primordials in the Void Realm in order to observe the events unfolding in the Human Realm as if everything went well, she would be summoned soon.
She planned to tutor the being in the use of nature magic while sending him to the rest of the Primordials later as they all wanted to gain the favor of this new incredibly powerful being that had landed on their hands. They had plans for him and needed to be on his good side even if it meant giving their secrets away.
As Garzar and Hussen were placing bets on whether the father would lose his life or not, the duel that would trigger the fall of worlds was starting.
------------------------------------------------
It was their first time facing a tetracaster and allowing him to fight back, they didn't know it but the stranger they killed before was also a tetracaster, his disappearance had raised some flags around the area as one of the most renowned mercenaries went missing.
Caleb would take care of this fight without help as the others either slept or meditated in order to gain more power but no one really paid attention to the fight as they knew Caleb could deal with it on his own.
Caleb dashed forward and released a couple of ice lances that honed on his father. His father reacted quickly as this was one of the most common spells of the ice users, Ice Lance. He quickly made a fiery wall that melted the lances on contact and then threw the fire wall at Caleb who in response dived to the left barely missing the surprise attack. Offense was indeed the best offense and Caleb realized this as in his new position the ground had become quicksand.
He breathed out and unleashed an icy breath that froze the quick sand and locked him in place for a split second, he then used fire magic from his feet to explode the quick sand, send ice shards towards his father and propel himself upwards in midair.
He did not commit the same mistake and covered the ice shards with an imperceptible water layer that when made contact with the newly formed firewall, created a mist made of steam that prevented the ice from melting and hindered his fathers vision, the ice shards continued forward and met their target head.
The ice shards penetrated his fathers body and limbs, they were not really big so they did not inflict any deadly wounds but they did hurt him. His father cried in pain and then let literal fire run through his veins and explode outwards as his own magical power did nothing to him but it melted the ice shards imbued in his skin.
He then made the lights floating around explode in a light of flash that would have blinded his enemy if it were not for the ice layer that now covered Caleb's eyes and reflected all of the light. Caleb then proceeded to conjure up a huge ice sword, it was bigger than the manor itself and everyone in the nearby town were left gazing up at the huge hilt of an ice sword that was now visible. The guards moving towards the manor quickly.
"Raaaaa!"
Caleb shouted as the ice spear traveled towards his father, stopping a centimeter from his face and melting away.
"I can't do it"- he said.
