Sira stared at Lumina as she approached, Lumina stood and proceeded towards her.
'This is bad if i remember she was hit by Ezze and was flung away so she has endurance and she overpowered Ezze, so she has strength, including that she has speed that surpasses a human's but, she is weaken but without my ability, this is not going to be a walk in the park.' Lumina thought but before he could think of a plan a person besides him walked at his pace.
Shorter, darker skinned white fluffy hair and blue deep dark irises.
"Helping your asset?" Lumina said his eyes narrowing.
"And?" Null said calmly.
[STAMINA: 120/170 ]
"I don't think you can handle this girl." He continued "Jern is strong for you so if—" before he could finish that sentence Null ran forward.
Lumina was about to follow him but the next moment he saw Null's fist land straight on Sira's face, dealing damage.
Even though Sira was not that easy to take down, she attacked back but, Null dodged to the side and striked at her elbow Sira winced but, it didn't have any other effect.
As if the only purpose of the strike was to hurt her.
Sira swiftly and furiously attacked at Null but he dodged with ease.
Ducking he struck at her ribs, than moved to the side as a end of the broken spear slashed down to where he was before.
She was about to follow up with another attack but.
But a foot planted in her stomach it hurt her but, she turned her head straight at the attacker and thrust the spear piece straight at Lumina.
But he barely managed to lean his head to the side 'Null made it look easy is he more skilled that me?' he dodged another attack by the skin of his teeth.
'No, with how unrefined his battle style was he was not skilled rather his faster?!' Lumina being shocked he was distracted, as the broken piece of spear was approaching right at his temple.
Null moving quickly hit Sira's forearm, misdirecting the attack.
She switched her hold and stabbed down, she missed as Null quickly moved back.
Then Lumina twisting himself, his heel bashed into her jaw, a human weakness.
She felt a slight dizziness but it disappeared immediately, dropping the spear piece, she grabbed Lumina's leg raised him into the air and straight onto the floor.
Swiftly Null, cushioned his collision with the floor but rather on him, Sira clasped her hands around the spear piece and thrust down wanting to skewer them but, Null swiftly kicked Lumina off and rolled to the other side.
[-5 HP]
Null stood speedly, same as Lumina.
Lumina looked at Null thought's racing 'His faster than me and his attack's have weight he keeps saving me but my attacks are barely do anything' than his eyes widened.
"I'm a liability" he grit his teeth
He grabbed the piece of the spear Sira dropped on the floor while Sira swung the forearm sized piece of spear as Null dodged.
He ducked leaned steped to the side and gut Sira retreating speedly.
Sira winced as she held her stomach and looked straight at Null with a contemptuous glare.
Then her eyes widened.
And turned her head to her shoulder as she saw almost whole of the broken spear piece broke through her shoulder.
Flesh, bone then flesh.
And it retreated pulling her along slightly.
She was about to turn around but.
A punch to the side of her ribs.
Wincing she decided to retreat away from her two attacker's.
Lumina cut at the back of her ankle dropping to a knee she swung but Lumina pulled by his collar was pulled back.
Then a knee smashed right into her nose breaking it, blood spewing, Null retreated but...
Sira held firm on his ankle.
She twisted and threw him to the wall, the crowd obviously seeing the progression of the fight moved out the way.
[-20 HP]
Null bounced from the wall, his lungs cleared of oxygen.
Sira reading to bash into him stumbled back to the floor as she felt the blood behind her and her broken shoulder dis-functional then Lumina thrust at Sira's other shoulder but she dodged and grabbed the spear piece.
Lumina let go and struck her jaw but Sira swiftly grabbed his shirt and slammed him down and pinned him as she raised her fist.
In Lumina's eyes the fist was more menacing knowing that the attack can kill him with ease.
She striked right at Lumina head to crush him to paste, but Null hit her arm redirecting the attack.
But that didn't mean he was free from pain.
The attack struck straight on his shoulder, decimating it.
Lumina grit his teeth in pain and agony.
Sira raised her fist once more, but Null kneed her by the jaw then planted a fist into her side.
But Sira raised her fist and brought it down.
Bam
Null and Sira flew into the orange crystal cover Ezze made.
[Common Active Skill : Dash ]
[Activated]
[-50 Stamina]
[STAMINA: 67/170 ]
Null speared Sira and retreated swiftly back to Lumina's side.
Lumina stood holding his broken shoulder.
The crowd were just bewildered and shocked they did not think the small boy had the strength to blast the strong foe as Sira in a second.
"Hey did you just see that is that some ability?!"
"Not sure, his speed just blasted through the roof, but do you remember the other times he did that?"
"Ya, but he looked pretty exhausted every time he performed it."
"I think it's because of Keld."
"What do you mean?"
"Keld is a healer."
"Really?!"
"Ya not only that, his healing has a personal affect that re-energizes the person he heals."
"Healer are already way too valuable but he even boost's a person, wait what do you mean personal affect?"
"Normally they call it a 'Individual Effect' but basically a person who gets the serum of another person don't have the same experience, skill and life as the original holder of the ability so if they choose to go to the next grade with out actually mimicing the previous holder the ability might rail of the previous path."
"Isn't that risky?"
"Ya, not knowing the full potential and path which ones ability has and will go, is risky but sometimes assured to be a meaningful payoff, like Keld's."
As the Crowd bantered, Null and Lumina pondered.
They both realized they were limited...
Restrainted...
Restricted...
Chained.
Lumina by himself
And Null by Lumina.
