บท 28: A Valkyrie vs An Elf

Clank!

Deka kept using his scythe to deflect all of Hina's sword attacks while moving around the arena with speed.

Hina was increasing her speed with every swing she took, but she was also surprised to see that an elf was standing his ground against her.

She was about to take another strike when Deka used his scythe to push her sword to the side.

She was shocked at the action and looked to her right to see that Deka was sending a blow with his other hand that was wrapped up in red-like energy.

Hina immediately let go of her sword and leaped back to evade the punch leaving her sword to fall to the ground.

Although Deka's punch didn't hit, it still sent a wide force of the wind to spread around the arena.

Once Hina landed on the ground, she looked at Deka for a while with a bit of surprise, "You are no ordinary elf are you?" She asked.

Deka pulled back his fist and stood straight, "I'm afraid I am, just not the weak one you imagined." He replied.

"Once thing's for sure," Hina stretched out her hand and her sword flew to her position before she held it, "Now, I don't have to hold back." She asserted.

Taking another fighting stance, Hina positioned her sword to her face level and stood firm with four glowing swords hovering at her sides.

"Please don't, I want this to be a fair fight!" Deka yelled, he ran toward her before jumping to the sky with the scythe.

Hina immediately blocked the scythe with her sword but the force still brought her to her knees.

Deka was still on top, grunting as he added more strength to bring Hina down with his scythe sparking tiny lightenings.

Hina struggled to get to her feet but she couldn't out best his strength, so she took a different approach.

She tilted her sword to the side a bit which made Deka lose his balance and grip on the scythe.

Deka immediately received a kick to the his ribs that sent him crashing to the ground, with multiple landings, he finally stopped and layed on the ground for a while.

"Ahhh, she got me." Deka said before he slowly stood up to his knees, "Shit!" He panicked.

Looking up he could see Hina building a huge amount of light beam at the tip of her sword which was aimed at him.

Deka immediately stretched out his hand to call for his scythe and it came answering with speed.

Once the scythe was in Deka's hand, he placed it in front of him before Hina could send the light beam his way.

Deka's scythe was able to deflect the light with the small frontal barrier he put up, but that didn't stop the light from cracking it.

The energy destroyed the ground beside and behind him, Deka was the only thing in his surroundings not getting destroyed by the light.

"Uhn…lady Hime, isn't she taking this a little too far?" Akari uttered.

She was sitting beside Benihime and Isla who were both captivated by the fight to even reply.

When she got no response, Akari sighed and used her hand fan to cover the bottom half of her face before uttering, "0 points,".

"Relax Akari, if I see things get out of hand, I'll cancel the battle." Benihime revealed but her eyes were still fixed on the battle.

Deka struggled to keep the barrier up, it was gradually cracking and the light was starting to pierce through it.

"Say you give up, and I promise to cease my attack!" Hina yelled while she kept on pushing her light beam toward Deka.

"Damn it, she's strong." Deka muttered, he tightened the grip on the scythe and began to take slow steps forward.

Some of the light was speeding past him as he slowly moved and split the beam in two, the other valkyries were surprised that Deka could still move.

Hina herself had to switch the way she held her sword in order to add more force into the light beam.

"I refuse to lose!" Deka yelled, a dark flame rushed out of the scythe and began to push the light back.

Both sides began pushing their attacks at each other, with raging screams from both sides who refused to give in to the other.

Huge energy began to build in the center where the two different energies met causing the area to explode from the pressure.

The whole arena was blown to smithereens and covered in dust making it hard for anyone to see who was still standing.

Benihime had a smile on her face when the arena exploded, "Oh… an elf standing toe to toe with Hina, that's truly entertaining." She muttered.

Even while the rest of the Valkyries ran to the arena to check up on them, Benihime and Akari remained seated.

"Lady Hime," Akari called out, she moved closer to her and whispered, "Pure elves aren't meant to be this powerful, they are only D-ranked races at best,".

"I don't know~, I'm looking at one right one," Benihime teased.

"Lady Hime!" Akari yelled, trying to tell her to take this seriously, "If this is the doing of the Sato guy, then my prediction was right, we should be wary of him." She asserted.

"I'll give it some thought later." Benihime replied with a smile.

Akari sighed, she knew Benihime was hardly listening to her, once a battle is at play, she always puts that first.

Isla was in the smoke walking around with the rest of the valkyries as they tried to find out if Hina and Deka survived.

"Hina! Hina!" Isla called out as she moved around in the dust, "It's no use, I'm going to have to get rid of this dust." She muttered.

Isla pulled out her sword, and with a roar, she stabbed her sword to the ground with so much power that all the dust in the area cleared from the wind it created.

As soon as the dust cleared, they heard a loud feminine scream coming from the left side of the arena.

"Hina!" Isla yelled, she immediately sheathed her sword and ran toward the scream.

When she got there, she met Deka and Hina almost naked, Deka had no clothes on and Hina was using her arms to cover her boobs since it was only her skirt that was still intact.

Deka was oblivious to the fact that he was naked, he stood in front of Hina and aimed his Scythe at her while she was seated on the ground with a flustered look on her face.
