Zev'jul's spell was not interrupted but fortunately, you had already moved away from your previous position where a fireball shot up from the floor. Meanwhile, the sorcerer was forced to take cover from the lightning strikes that you summoned, not seeing that you had already began moving across the field with your flash step.

With you almost a blur, Zev'jul could not follow you until it was too late. He could only look in surprise as you delivered your attack, a heavy slash across his body. "[color=662d91]Argh![/color]" He almost fell to the floor but he managed to keep standing still.

The sorcerer retaliated with a right hook that was easily evaded. But that was just a feint, Zev'jul immediately followed it up with a spell. His arms glowed with magic and he made a pulling motion at you. You felt your magical essence was being sucked out, your physical body also reacting a bit to the pull.

At that moment, Zev'jul was covered in orange light and once it dissipated, you saw... yourself. Zev'jul now assumed your form, down to the last detail. This garnered an 'Ooohh...' from the audience. Even your brother looked impressed at what happened. Their eyes could not be more focused at the fight.

"[color=fff200]Let's see you take this![/color]" Zev'jul said in your voice before shooting a lightning bolt at you from his (her?) palm.

You dodge her arrows and also snatch away her bow. Things have been going well for you so far.

But that ended when you attempted a kick to her gut. Primera caught your foot and with surprising strength, she threw you over her shoulder. With you on the ground and some distance away, the Wood Elf used this opportunity to pick up her bow and aim another arrow at you. You were back to square one.

But you see light green magic gathering in Primera's arrow. This shot was not going to be ordinary.

"[color=a0410d]Hmmm...[/color]" Sir Eats-A-Lot was unsure as to how to deal with your current tactic. With a shrug of resignation, he swung his axe at the multiple Seleths and hitting, not one, but two of the clones.

Having hit two, the traps he activated were twofold: Dark Javelins flew at him, making him recoil from the point-blank attack. With him distracted, Shadow Weights stuck to him and began doing their job. Namely, pulling him down and preventing him from moving. Despite the Lot Knight's strength, he could barely move the dark orbs with him.

He was open to attack. Give him everything you've got. And hope it will do at least something.

The staff you threw missed Galmore but at least you were not there when he landed with the force of a meteor.

Seeing that you were some distance from him, Galmore did not rush you this time. Instead, green magic enveloped his right hand. A ball of magical energy was soon in his hand which he then threw at you.

You probably don't want to be hit by it. Although, now that you have seen Galmore fight, you notice he moves kind of slow barring some short bursts.

Having evaded Ecthel's arrows, you used your burning claws to try and do damage to the student.

But Ecthel dodged and evaded your swipes and slashes. He was nimble, being out of the way before your claw was even halfway towards him. It all culminated when he crouched to evade a horizontal slash and did a sweeping kick that knocked you off your feet.

Ecthel then stood towering over you, his bow in his hands and an arrow at the ready and pointed at you. Poised to be shot at point-blank range. "[color=blue]Looks like checkmate to me, Mister Wolfman.[/color]" He said to you with a slight grin on his face, believing he had won and had you cornered. The audience cheered loudly at Ecthel's apparent victory.

But was it checkmate? Will you accept that?

You swung Hellia's halberd mightily but she proved to be mightier, catching the pole and stopping the halberd with one hand. She then followed it up by one solid punch to your face. Whether this hurt you or not, it did make you let go of her halberd and maybe stagger back a little bit.

With her weapon back in her hands, Hellia raised her halberd and yelled her war cry again but this one was not to stun you nor to empower herself. That one was dedicated to the battle itself. 'Let battle be joined!' was practically what her war cry meant.

Hellia charged at you again with her halberd at the fore, ready to be thrusted into you.

While the Tozen facing [u]Maldur[/u] got his feet frozen, he still managed to stop the ice pillar with one powerful slash from his blade. The ice exploded into obscuring snow which was used by Tozen to deliver an unavoidable slash at [u]Maldur[/u].

When the snow cleared, it revealed that the Tozen that attacked [u]Maldur[/u] was different one. The one whose feet was frozen was now chipping away the ice with his sword. It appeared that one of the Tozens left his fight with [u]Kazudain[/u] and tranferred over.

Meanwhile, the Tozen facing [u]Kazudain[/u] could not stop the lightning attack and was hit, sending him flying to the wall. That Tozen then disappeares in a poof of smoke. An indicator that the clone was defeated.

There were two left. The numbers were even now.

Rielle dodged the two greatswords hurled at her but was unprepared when you rushed at her with dual swords. You scored a hit on her shoulder and another one when you managed to knock her scimitar off her hands.

Rielle rolled across you to evade an attack and was back at her magic circle. The dimming circle then waxed, it grew bright again. Rielle saw this and grinned, picking up one of your swords then motioning to you to come at her.

Since you now knew the effects of the now-active magic circle, your approach must take these into account.
