Lorenzo would agree with Jaakuna, and would lead the pair back to his garage. Emiri couldn't help but raise an eyebrow as they walked. She had assumed they would be taking one of the usual boats down the canal, but it seemed Lorenzo deemed it necessary to use one of his toys. He would halt before one of the benches, taking off his jacket and folding it neatly. He would open a drawer and take out a pair of very simple, fingerless black gloves and slip them over his hands. She wasn't entirely sure, but they had a distinct familiar feeling for some reason. The thought crossed her mind that perhaps Lorenzo was preparing for a fight, though she admitted she had never seen him fight. As if reading her mind, he would give Emiri a thumbs up and put on a pair of [url=https://rulesforhumans.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/sunglasses.jpg]sunglasses[/url], and would lead them through a door that revealed a set of stairs.

As they would descend, Emiri could hear the sound of water. Once they reached the bottom, they would see a part of the canal running through and a small dock holding only one [url=http://thecoolgadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Thierry-Mugler-Studio-designs-new-Spire-Boat-angle-view.jpg]vehicle[/url]. Emiri raised her eyebrows in fascination as they approached the odd looking boat. What was it with boys and their toys? As the glass would open to admit passengers, Lorenzo would grin. "[b][color=f26522]The Royal Carriage, believe it or not. Reia actually uses this to get around Stigma faster, built by yours truly.[/color][/b]" He would let out a rather haughty laugh.

Truly, Lorenzo's technical prowess really was something to behold. The man would offer Emiri his hand, and she would climb into the backseat, noticing immediately how small it was. If she was any taller, she imagined she would have had a tougher time squeezing in. Lorenzo would then take the driver's seat, and once Jaakuna would climb in, the glass would close above them. As Lorenzo would crack his knuckles, Emiri decided to ask, "[b][color=f6989d]I admit my surprise, but...why the glass?[/color][/b]" She asked curiously.

Lorenzo would sport a rather wicked grin--one Emiri knew she had seen on Nadeline much too many times, though at least now she knew where the princess had gotten it from--and he would start the boat. The engine rumbled rather quietly, though they would slowly begin to take off. Emiri immediately noted that it really wasn't any faster than a normal boat, though as she was abut to make her comment, Lorenzo snapped his fingers. "[b][color=f26522]Alright, kiddos, brace yourselves![/color][/b]" He said as he would press a button.

Emiri was immediately thrown back in her seat, letting out a squeal of terror. This thing was about as fast as Jaakuna's bike! She tried hard to sit up properly, but the speed wouldn't let her. They would drive through the tunnel, eventually reaching the familiar waterway they had seen when coming into Rozarria. The water splashed all around the glass, and it was then that Emiri realized why it was there. As they drove, the site of the explosion would be seen clearer. Or rather, the lack of the area--any previous building or monument had been clearly wiped clean.

The boat would then suddenly jerk to the side, Lorenzo having pulled it towards the edge. Emiri hit the side hard, and let out a gasp as she saw several Elementals hovering above the water. They were certainly not around when they had come! Lorenzo would maneuver through them, well aware that if any of them would get aggravated, they'd attack the boat. "[b][color=f6989d]The Mist always does attract monsters...[/color][/b]" Emiri commented as she watched them zip through the pack. Still, it would turn out that Elementals were the least of their worries when a Sahagin would jump onto the boat. Lorenzo let out a curse as he would shift to a faster speed, but it seemed the Sahagin wasn't alone when a few more would jump in the way, covering Lorenzo's vision. He would immediately switch back down to a slower speed. At that point, Emiri knew what had to be done as she would bring herself closer to the men. "[b][color=f6989d]Open the glass, lest they swarm us![/color]"[/b]" Emiri instructed Lorenzo.

Lorenzo looked back at her, but would then grin. "[b][color=f26522]Great idea, Elizabeth! But I don't think it's a good idea if you fight, so![/color][/b]" He said, pushing a button. Once the glass was lowered, Lorenzo would stand, grabbing Emiri and plopping her onto the driver's seat. "[b][color=f26522]Try not to crash us, alright?[/color][/b]" He said as a Sahagin would make its leap at him. In one fell swoop, he would uppercut the monster, his glove glowing and promptly blasting the creature away. "[b][color=f26522]Come now, fellow blonde prince! Let's show these things who's boss![/color][/b]"

Emiri took the wheel rather nervously, though she would have to jerk the vehicle away from an Elemental. Lorenzo would hop onto the front of the boat, charging at the monsters.

There was a possibility that maybe, just [b]maybe[/b] instead of Black Magicks being more effective, they were essentially useless against the Holy Esper. Nadeline clucked her tongue in disappointment as Scourge was easily purified. Still, Ultima was right. Normal spells and the like weren't about to even put so much as a scratch on Ultima. Indeed, reaching deep within would have to be the answer. But the question that lingered in her head was, would it be enough? No, it was too late for any doubts, and as Ultima would summon her weapon, Nadeline readied herself as she gripped her staff tightly. As the rapier Wesley gave her gently hit her side, an idea popped into her head. She had read about the spell some time ago, but would it work? 

Grant couldn't help but start to get just a little nervous. Nadeline's lack of experience was starting to show, but at the very least, she was quick to react and try something new. But how long was that going to last? Ultima clearly proved that she had more than a few tricks up his sleeve, but Nadeline kept surprising them all with her own intuition and knowledge. What worried him most, however, was the fact that the could tell she was casting spells she had no control of. She had gotten lucky with Shock, but nearly got caught in her own Scourge, what if the next one would backfire entirely? [i][color=92278f]No, I can't start thinking like this.[/color][/i] Grant shook his head, lightly tugging on his lower lip. [i][color=92278f]Just like Wesley and Savayna, I need to believe, too.[/color][/i]

The princess bit her lip lightly, gripping her staff as she mulled her options over. [i][color=fdc68a]Whatever happens, I have to keep going and adjust to the situation. Only way to see if it'll work is to try it.[/color][/i] Nadeline thought. Indeed, if Ultima would be swtiching to close combat, then her staff was no longer an option. The staff would return to its bracelet form as Nadeline would begin to cast another spell, withdrawing her rapier. She gripped it tightly as another glyph appeared beneath her, though this spell was notably quicker than any other she casted. The Cloud Staff's bracelet would turn into mist and dissolve into the glyph. The glyph would glow a pure white in response, quickly coating itself over Nadeline's weapon, and as Ultima came, the two weapons would clash. The ephemeral glow would cause the two weapons to parry, though it would fade to reveal [url=https://i.warosu.org/data/tg/img/0375/75/1422100822939.jpg]another rapier[/url] in its place. The blade was essentially magical in property, though at least it would give Nadeline a better chance at close-quarters combat.

Nadeline whipped her weapon aside as she charged, her weapon glowing a bright blue as she would jab multiple times at Ultima. With each jab, the sword would gain hue, eventually becoming a deep colored blue, and at the final swing, several blue rays would erupt from her sword, sending themselves at the Esper. "[b][color=92278f]That's...Ardor?[/color][/b]" Grant asked, somewhat shocked at Nadeline's utility of the advanced Black Magic spell. He was slightly put off, having been expecting more, but maybe Nadeline needed time for whatever she had planned.
