If that kind of thing could exist, why were magical criminals still getting away and successfully hiding from the Council and the Royal Army? He shook his head and dismissed it as either politics or rarity of the materials required. Or just a rare item in and of itself. Shaking his head, he smiled. [color=FireBrick]"Frankly, I'm surprised there was any of my magic's essence left behind, it's been weeks since that particular battle."[/color] The girl pressed on, saying something about a good fight and Damian frowned. A good fight meant he'd need to use most of his magic power and if he ran out, would be resorting to good old fashioned fisticuffs. Not that he was shabby at it, he made a point to focus on both magical and martial training. [color=6ecff6]"So do you accept my challenge, Damian the Blade of Phoenix Wing!"[/color] Damian sighed and stepped forward, summoning his Hermes Blades for a boost in speed. He slid into a ready stance and made sure the edges and tips were blunted so he couldn't do more than bruise. He was done killing and taking lives. He had enough blood on his hands. [color=FireBrick]"Since I get the feeling you won't leave unless I say yes, yes. Suppose it's as good of training for the Games as anything."[/color] [center][h2]James Hunt|Phoenix Wing Training Area[/h2][/center] [center][@Shikaru][@t2wave][/center] James was well versed in theoretical combat against archers, and used his main shield to block three of them with the fourth hitting his armor in the left shoulder, though he did acknowledge what Artemis said with a nod. Light and Holy magic were technically in the same branch of magic even though they weren't identical to each other. Holy Magic focused on besting evil and light shadow, also similar magics. That said, the arrow didn't have as much impact as James sure Spirit had thought it would. [color=Navy]"Divine Protection!"[/color] A light golden glow envelops both James and Artemis, the shield taking form, before James moved fluidly forward, his shield glowing brightly with magic energy. [color=Navy]"Shield Bash!"[/color] The two shields clash and then fly apart, opening up Spirit's guard just enough for James to slip his sword in. [color=Navy]"Holy Strike!"[/color] His sword's blade glows golden as well as it moves towards Spirit's chest, James intent on taking down his opponent quickly.

[color=DarkGreen]"Oh, you want some too, metal head? Three way ba-"[/color] His words were cut short as a fist of black flames sent him flying into the wall. Master Jack stood, his arms crossed and head shaking, right where he'd been since after the announcement. [color=Turquoise]"Enough Hunter. There's no point in wasting energy like this. You wanna beat someone up, get job with fighting involved."[/color] Hunter, who was still stuck against the wall, took a moment to reply, waiting until he fell off. [color=DarkGreen]"Yes, Master Jack. I'll do that."[/color] Picking himself up, Hunter grumbles all the way to the job board before picking one, showing it to Jack, and leaving. The entire guild let out a sigh of relief when he left, able to have some peace until he got back. [center][h2]Jack Goran|Dragon Fang Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@Joshua Tamashii][/center] After handling the escalating situation, Jack turned his attention back to Jackie and her question. Love was indeed a powerful emotion, but could just as easily be rivaled by hate. [color=Turquoise]"Well, the most powerful emotion varies from person to person. Love is, indeed one of the most powerful emotions in your emotional arsenal, but hate can just as easily rival it. However, hate leads you down a dark and lonely path and in the end, is trumped by love."[/color] He thought for a moment, then chuckled. [color=Turquoise]"So yes, love is the most powerful emotion. Also, maker magic doesn't require you know every little detail, the idea is to know what YOU want it to be, to have that picture in your mind."[/color]
