While the two spoke after the room was split by the woman's Magic, Mike would be able to turn on Zandaka once again and get off an Observe on both of them. Although there wasn't much time to read the presented data from both of them, Mike barely even able to get that done before their speeches finished thanks to his intelligence somewhat upping his reading speed. [hider=Observe Data] Name: Yoko Yamagishi Gender: Female Age: 23 Class: Spatial Mage Level: 24 STR: 18 VIT: 20 DEX: 24 INT: 42 WIS: 20 LUK: 10 HP: 425 MP: 750 Resilience: 14 Concentration: 25 Yoko is a mage who utilizes Spatial Magic. Derived from the Manipulation Discipline of Arcane Magic, Spatial Magic is a form of magic that involves manipulating the physical and metaphysical space in an area and can include things like creating mystical rooms, manipulating Pseudospace, and even teleportation. Yoko is also a Hunter, a person whose job is to kidnap people for Mana Factories or making into slaves. [/hider] [hider=Observe Data] Name: Mark Carrson Gender: Male Age: 26 Class: Necromancer Level: 26 STR: 24 VIT: 20 DEX: 28 INT: 40 WIS: 20 LUK: 10 HP: 475 MP: 700 Resilience: 16 Concentration: 25 Mark is a Necromancer. A practitioner of the Black Arts or Black Magic who has learned how to communicate with the dead through alternate practice and research.

Mark is also a Hunter, a person whose job it is to kidnap ability users for either Mana Factories or to turn into slaves. [/hider] It was after this that Mike rushed them, activating the Tamashī no Ha as he did so, aiming for the Spatial Mage first since his logical assumption was that if they took her out first, then they would be able to reunite with Henry who would, according to the very statements of these enemies, be able to help the Gamers easily trounce these two. --- Mike Attack: 10 - 25 Seishin no Ken = -15 Max Damage Damage Dealt: 95 --- The phrase 'Glass Cannon' when used in referral to Mage's was right. She tried to actually dodge, or maybe even teleport, away from the blade but the blade was to swift, the Bokken dealing an incredibly nasty blow to the woman, making her cry out as she clenched her teeth, but right on contact with the blade something strange happened, Mike barely able to see it in time, but a sword of green energy seemed to instantly materialize behind Mike, or perhaps was it always there? It was hard for any of the onlookers to know, Mike having no choice but to try and dodge the fast moving 'projectile' as the Spatial Mage, or Yoko, moved away from Mike. --- Instant Projectile: -1 Hit! (Max Damage) Damage Dealt: 142 --- The blade itself felt like it was 'swung' from nowhere as it cleaved into Mike. Despite how tough he was though, Mike felt it literally severing his very being, his resistances that he had to damage seemingly futile as it just cleaved right into him. The woman laughed, as Mike would undobutedly be in alot of pain, but he wasn't dead, although this did cut his clothes where it hit him. "You... should be dead from that..." That was indeed true, as it felt like that should have cut him in half, or at least cut him a giant hole in his body, or perhaps even erase a giant hole in it as that was what it felt like the sword was doing, severing his very being, it having taken away nearly half his HP in one hit, making Ren understand why this was too dangerous. Mages really were glass cannons. Ren wasn't sitting idly by either during all of this, as while Mike charged and attacked, and then got instantly attacked, Ren had his Summons target the Necromancer while he targeted the Spatial Mage. [i]"Harm!"[/i] was the first thing Ren chanted, the black mark on his right hand glowing with some form of dark eldritch force, Ren ignoring the bit of pain he felt. It took a couple of seconds, but suddenly the woman cried out in pain as some form of unseen force attacked her, cutting into her and dealing damage, a total of 49 Damage in fact. After that, chanting [i]"Jinx of Draining!"[/i] came next, that dark mark glowing once again as some other dark power seemed to vacate itself of Ren's being and latch on to the Spatial Mage, the woman cringing again as it looked like some of the color was visibly drained from her face by whatever dark magic Ren used, a dark blue 57 appearing over her head as if it also did MP Damage. Right after casting his Jinx, one of those swords appeared right above Ren now, as he had finished the casting time of the spell then used the Jinx in quick succession, and attempted to slash into him as well out of nowhere. --- Instant Projectile: 2 Hit! (Max Damage) Damage Dealt: 142 --- Lilim, deciding to instead go after the weaker looking opponent, and thus disobeying Ren's orders after seeing Ren crying out in pain from getting slashed, his Mana Shield, MP Armor, and Aqua Shield all being cut asunder by the powerful magic. Lilim, after witnessing this, suddenly said "Sorry Master~, but I'd rather hit this annoying woman instead~" as dark looking lightning appeared around her fingertips, the likes of which she fired at the woman, her HP draining a bit as she fired off this attack, her voice having been both sultry and seductive, but laced with a bit of venom directed at the Spatial Mage as well. -- Instant Projectile: 37 Miss Instant Projectile (second shot): -27 Hit! (Max Damage) Damage Dealt: 65 --- Lilim looked pretty pissed as her first bolt missed, lightning being well... really fast, but a bit hard to aim with as she shot yet one more bolt, draining a bit more of her HP with the second one. Try as she may to get away in time, the bolt slammed head on into her, her robe seeming to block a bit of the damage as did her own natural magical resistance, but again she cringed out in pain as she was hit once again, but the moment she was hit another of those strange green swords appeared as if instantaneously, as if it was always there, Lilim having a hard time trying to dodge out of the way in the nick of time. --- Instant Projectile: -23 Max Damage Damage Dealt: 142 --- Lilim cried out loudly as her body was slashed into by the sword, a good chunk of the demonic essence that comprised her being severed away by it, but somehow she managed to maintain her being, her eyes now fixated into a glare on the Spatial Mage. The Spatial Mage, whatever she was doing, seemed to be incredibly powerful, and was somehow making those swords appear instantly, or perhaps they were hidden and being revealed at specific times. Ren had no idea, but knew that they needed to take her out and fast. The Necromancer was having a bit of his own troubles as well as Undine had charged forward, aiming to stab into him with her trident as they did have two opponents to focus on, and leaving one unattended was not such a good idea, attacking from a couple of feet away away since her trident had reach. --- Undine Attack: 26 Miss Second Attack: 6 Hit! Damage Dealt: 26 --- The trident missed with the first jab, but the second jab was a bit more successful even though it didn't deal much damage, the man muttering a curse beneath his breath as suddenly another one of those swords appeared, aiming to cut into Undine now. --- Instant Projectile: -26 Max Damage! Damage Dealt: 142 --- Undine was an elemental, and elementals felt no pain, but even Ren could tell that hurt as that drained nearly all of her HP, Ren giving a mental command for Undine to get back here and focus on healing the moment she could, Ren feeling like a fool for thinking that just two summons were enough. They were facing against professionals, people who were apparently on a whole different level especially with how that Spatial Mage could apparently summon those swords from nowhere. It was like they were always there, but there was little time to figure out why they were appearing or how, as they had to appear and soon. Suddenly a voice sounded out in the minds of Ren, Lucian, and Mike. It was Saya's voice, although it wasn't a voice more like a vision than anything. It was unclear what it was, but its message was clear. [i]"Henry says to hold out for just a little while longer, he is working on dispelling the magic separating you and will be able to assist you if you give him just a small bit of time"[/i]. Was this the power of a Clairvoyant? Able to deliver messages like this to anyone? Whatever it was, Ren knew one thing for sure. They were still inexperienced if they had to go with this plan, but he would keep fighting anyway regardless of whether or not Henry was coming. They were dealing damage, and that was what mattered.
