Excel smirked, glancing at Celestia for a moment. Had he really overrated her current power? No, he had always been good at reading people's power. Celestia was apparently unaware of what strength was still laying within her. Talent that had yet to be brought to the surface. "They're not -that- strong, really! Or very fast. But this weapon is troublesome." She dashed to the other lizard, so Excel decided to go on the offensive as well. When the lizard's friend was hit by Celestia it distracted him, so Excel quickly pushed with all his strength and moved away from the weapon.
The fight was only just starting. It was two versus two now. Yet Excel could only get excited. Despite his normally calm demeanor, a challenging fight could bring out the warrior in him. The urge to the feel the excitement of battle, of putting your life on the line. "Bring it, greenskin..." He softly spoke before charging at the lizard with it's huge club. The large weapon came down, so Excel dodged to the side. He then tried to slash the lizard's leg, but the club continued it's swing downward to attack him as second time. Once again he dodged, landing on his feet a few meters away from the lizard.
"Fine...you want to play on my territory?" Excel grumbled, noticing that his opponent had already adapted to put less strength, but more speed into it's attacks. "Then let's play..." He mused with a grin. "Dak magic: Enhance." He spoke, now not only his feet but his lower legs also starting to glow with a flaming, magic aura. Once again he dashed towards the lizard, but this time even faster than before. The large club came down, but this time Excel was just too quick.
The lizard kept on swinging his weapon, but while he couldn't his any more, Excel was now cutting his opponent all over it's body. Shallow cuts, but still enough to slowly weaken him. Then suddenly Excel heard Celestia's voice. He reacted immediately, dashing out of the way and jumping up high. As he already had a plan to finish this opponent. Celestia hit, making the lizard drop his club. And now Excel was right above him, his sword already ablaze with magic energy, as he came falling down again, a soft chuckle coming from his lips. The sword hit right in the lizard's shoulder, striking painfully deep. At the very least it would render the entire arm unable to move.
Excel then pulled out again, still grinning, and jumped towards Celestia to join up with his temporary team mate again. His sword raised up, pointed at the two badly wounded lizards whom were laying on the ground, but still alive. "Last chance. Give up your flag and you can get out of here alive."
