[center][color=662d91][h3]Vega Ashcroft[/h3][/color] Dragon Heart Guild Hall [/center] Soundtrack: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvzbD5_QrII]7 Hells[/url] [hr] As Muko went in for a strike, the look in Vega's eyes flared as he caught the strike, the scythe disappearing quickly as his swinging arm covered briefly with his magic to prevent the effects of Muko's ice from affecting him. For a brief moment he locked his gaze with Muko's, it was more driven now, that's more like it. The blow was hard, but it could most certainly be worse, that Void Ice was dangerous without any protection, but thankfully to Vega, it was just like normal ice. [color=662d91]"Well look who decided to wake up"[/color], he taunted. The next blow would come from his other arm, the same thing too, however with the distance he was forced to slide back from due to the previous strike, he had more options than to just block it. His right leg erupted violently with his black magic as he kicked up the dirt of the guild hall, causing a large blast of his magic to erupt in front of him in a large spread burst, hands in his pockets. The blast sounding like a shotgun had far more force than his scythe would ever have. If it didn't destroy that ice gauntlet, it would at least stop Muko's momentum, but given it's properties combined with it's kinetic force increasing with input, it didn't seem likely that gauntlet would survive. As his leg was on the downswing he'd take his right hand out and form a chain and sickle, which he already began swinging around, ready to send it out like a bladed boomerang at even a moment's notice. It seemed Muko was getting more into it now, and that was far better in Vega's opinion. It's weird, most everyone when they start fighting try to restrain him, and most of the time that doesn't work out well for them and he taunts them for it. In this case, this guy here goes all out right away, those ice gauntlets could put lesser mages into the ground. There's no middle ground, it's low effort, or all effort. Did he like it? Nah, definitely not, it didn't feel like he was being true to himself, and those that lie to their true nature, pretending they're better than others just because they have a little more pisses him off, but in this case Muko... Likely doesn't know his own nature well enough. As a result, he didn't like him, but nor does he hate him. He had more thoughts to grind about everyone else, but that'll have to wait. A Dragon Slayer with the full intent on a fight was never an opponent to slow down against.
