Meanwhile, his aura slashes continued falling by the dozens, and his lightning began to come as well. There was an absurd amount of attacks without stopping for even a second. Bruno still could defend himself and attack at the same time.
The problem was that his attacks could not pass through Kayden’s domain, they were simply transformed into absolutely nothing as soon as they crossed a few meters towards him.
Brunno’s spells were all ingenious and capable of dealing a lot of damage to ordinary opponents, but Kayden was not one of them. None of his attacks had enough strength to break Kayden’s hold with brute force.
He had much more technique than strength, something very different from Jasmin. The woman had enough technique and brute strength to break Kayden’s hold and come very close to taking his life.
"That’s it? How pathetic," Kayden blurted out at one point during the fight. It seemed like a cheap provocation, but it was exactly what he was feeling, a dull fight.
Bruno was still a good fighter and didn’t lose his cool, but he intensified his attacks and began preparing his finishing moves. Around him, a tornado formed, carrying all four elements.
It was something beautiful that no one had ever seen before. The elements rotated in the air with perfection and harmony, without any of them touching. Without hesitation, the wizard threw him at Kayden.
As soon as it touched Kayden’s domain, it was instantly broken by the clash with all the elements. It was a spectacular thing to see. For every second in contact with the tornado, dozens of spells of different elements were released.
This showed a degree of familiarity with each high-level element. There were flames of different types, earth in different states, the wind was thrown into cuts and walls, practically a little of everything.
Kayden cast a huge pentagram below him and prepared a beam with area damage characteristics. The strength of his attack would also be ridiculously high, especially after he placed two more pentagrams and threw the lightning at them.
BOOOM! The entire stadium shook from the contact between the two spells. A ridiculously tall cloud of dust rose and covered everyone’s vision. The barrier that held back the attack residue had to be supported by the empress.
A few seconds later, the dust cleared, revealing Kayden intact and Bruno holding a clump of flesh where his left arm should have been. His countenance was pale and fear was visible in his eyes.
"You are excellent at everything, all your elements are perfect together, but I already told you last time, right? You are not the master of the elements, you are simply the master of nothing", Kayden said dryly and continued playing dozens of spells.
He wouldn’t take this fight seriously and pull out his katana, he would just bury the wizard with offensive spells until his defense broke. Now and then he would launch a strong attack like before, the problem was that without Bruno being focused on attacking too, it wouldn’t have as much effect.
Dozens of pentagrams appeared and disappeared around him every second, he had no break between his spells. Bruno even tried to counterattack, but it was useless.
Bruno was one of the strongest mages to ever walk the earth and, at the same time, one of the weakest at the top. His knowledge of different types of elements meant that he did not have time to truly specialize in any.
Kayden launched three pentagrams and lightning at high speed at Brunno, this was one of the fastest high-speed attacks in his arsenal. Bruno instantly went into absolute defensive and closed himself in a bubble with four elements around him.
The attack broke her at the cost of her very existence. Bruno, for a second, felt triumphant for holding off the attack without spending much mana, but his countenance fell as several dozen aurae slash continued to rain down on him.
"Fight like a…", Bruno was going to shout a typical phrase, but Kayden interrupted him. "Mage? Die quietly and spare me your barking." Kayden again threw dozens of pentagrams and aura slashes passed through them. Kayden just wanted to get this over with quickly, but he wouldn’t give the death of a warrior to a worm-like Bruno.
Bruno released another one of his best spells, a ball with the four elements that, upon coming into contact with Kayden’s domain, easily passed through him as if it were nothing. It was extremely compact and stable.
Kayden looked at the ball and thought of all the possibilities. In the end, he made the less risky decision and launched a destructive beam attack augmented with some pentagrams. The ball hit his attack head-on and managed to get past him in an impressive display of resilience.
"That was unexpected", Kayden commented and then launched another lightning attack combined with his pentagrams. This time, the bubble broke and launched hundreds of different attacks at Kayden from a ridiculously close distance.
"Shit," he had to pull all the mana in the region into him and increase the strength of his domain by several layers. The amount of spells was simply spectacular. At that moment, Bruno was showing that he didn’t have five rays for anything.
Kayden had his domain destroyed several times, but the amount of mana he had available was very large. This allowed him to place dozens of wear barriers and dilate the surrounding mana.
The spells didn’t stop coming out for about five minutes, and Kayden had to spend 50% of all available mana for the spells to stop coming out. When he calmed down, he saw Bruno desperately trying to gather mana on the other side.
"A good spell," Kayden commented before placing dozens of pentagrams in front of him and resuming his attacks without stopping. Brunno’s barriers were no longer as strong and durable as before. Kayden took this opportunity to press even harder, launching attacks with even more intensity and frequency.
