The fight was truly a clash of powerful magics and exquisite swordplay. Even Penny was using a sword now! Though he himself was less of the violent type, he could appreciate the skills and power on show by their S-Ranks. Though his attention was now grabbed by his mentor's elbow lightly pressing against his side. Though even that was enough to bring a slight grimace from the young man. He really had been training too long this morning hadn't he.... [color=A7CBA5]"A scythe user?"[/color] He asked, confused for a moment as he looked towards Amaya before snapping his fingers. He felt like a lightbulb had just been switched on in his head. [color=A7CBA5]"Oh right! Her....well umm the best way to counter them would be to get within in close and personal no? Then they can't swing their weapon without leaving themselves open. It's a weapon that gives you extra reach but is difficult to swing and use up close with an opponent."[/color] [hr] [center][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504262251755339776/806523090800345088/Jasmine.png[/img] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504262251755339776/799137881704497202/7de6c842f109debb126931ec53dd023d.png[/img] [@Sanguine Rose] [h2][color=333A7E]Phoenix Wing Guild Hall[/color][/h2] [/center] When Mark returned, she was already beginning the washing up of her dish along with the ones he had been cooking with. Hearing his voice startled the girl for a moment, causing her to nearly drop one of the pans and juggle it for a moment before sighing in relief as she managed to stop it from crashing onto the floor. He had caught her while deep in her thoughts, so any sudden voice was bound to startle her. It was a common occurrence for the water dragon slayer to be daydreaming or otherwise preoccupied with the inner workings of her own mind. Sometimes people even caught her talking to herself, not that this was one of those times. [color=333A7E]"O-oh r-really?"[/color] Trinity had already left for the event? Seemed odd she would leave without Neil and Mark, the trio seemed almost inseparable at times, but maybe something had come up? She wasn't privy to the details so suppose there was no point in thinking too much about it. While she didn't care much for the prospect of a fight, let alone watching one, she was however excited to see the magic involved in said fight. Penny with her Phoenix Slayer magic, Rose with her shadow magic, Damian with his sword magic....even Nolan and his God Slayer magic, as much as he terrified her she adored the prospect of seeing such exotic and powerful magics on display. When was the last time she had ever seen some of them in use after all? [color=333A7E]"Yeah I plan on going! I can't wait to see Penny in action after all this time! Her magic is so warm, comforting and pretty to watch! It's been two years so I'm sure it's become even more elegant and beautiful than before, oh-oh maybe she's even developed a few new spells to show off! Admittedly I've not seen Rose in action, but from what I've heard her magic is some form of darkness magic? I can't wait to see her take on such a often misunderstood magic! Oh and can't forget the cool-headed Damian and his sword magic. I saw a bit of him during the Grand Magic Games but I can't wait-"[/color] Starry-eyed, she excitedly grabbed Marks hands as she began to ramble on and on, speaking a mile a minute before she seemed to realise what she was doing. [color=333A7E]"O-oh sorry Mark...I um...got a little excited...."[/color] Burning bright red, she looked down at the ground. Could someone strike her down please? Pretty please? She just wanted to curl up in a corner somewhere and die. Whenever she thought about magic in action she always found herself becoming so childish over the prospect. She needed to change the subject...uh what had he just asked again? Oh right, helping him serve! [color=333A7E]"I-I would love to help you....b-but I may get a little distracted with the show....so um if that's ok..."[/color] [hr] [center][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504262251755339776/806525723484356668/Ash.png[/img] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/504262251755339776/799982217467002910/7668a5dc375d770c810366b46b918571.png[/img] [h2][color=DE3C16]Train Station[/color][/h2] [@Zarkun][@hatakekuro][@Raijinslayer][/center] Damn, she had beaten by Hunter after-all. She had been hoping since she always travelled light she could beat him here, but suppose he wasn't just S-rank in strength but preparation as well. Catching the parcel tossed her way, she glanced it over as he talked. [color=DE3C16]"Eh I'm sure we'll wrap it no problems, but doesn't hurt to be prepared."[/color] Tossing the parcel from hand to hand for a moment, she slid her backpack off her shoulder and shoved the rations inside before turning back to Hunter. [color=DE3C16]"So I know it's a mysterious beast and all, but any idea on what to expect boss? Don't think I've ever been to this desert so like, any particular monsters we gotta keep an eye out for or anything else I need to know?"[/color]
