Jacque weaved around the magma with the use of the pillar of water he'd used as a platform at the cost of half of its volume, then, witnessing the area starting to go up in flames, Jacque dispersed the remainder of the pillar to dose the flames and cool the magma into slabs of rock. Jacque had to admit it, the child was strong yes, but she seemed to be too ruled by her emotions, whats more, she clearly lacked the experience that a phoenix knight or champion would boast. Before he could unleash an attack of his own, Nao fired into the ceiling and berated him and Amber and told Spartan to handle the situation. "No need to get him involved." Jacque sheathed his sword and withdrew what water he could from the small puddles remaining into his pack to refill it, "You're right lady, now isn't the time for me and this beast to battle it out." he stated flatly as he used the new slabs of rock to climb back up to the shattered window, grunting as he crawled through. Jacque would never admit it, but Nao had earned his repect by being the only other soldier on the team to have fought countless battles throughout the decades and come out alive, so for now he'd listen to her to an extent, still though, there was a matter that needed to be addressed. "A battle between me and here would only end when one of us was dead at the others feet.". Jacque brushed a bit of dirt off of his clothing, acting as though he'd never engaged Amber in a fight mere seconds before, "For now i'll wait until this dimension is safe. When thats done, i'll happily remove the phoenix's head from her shoulders.", Jacque turned and pointed to Amber with a smirk "You here that? When this is over, we duke it out until one of us is dead. You're not allowed to die unless i'm the one killing you and vice versa. That sound good?".
