Flames hit with Ice; these two complete opposites have been against each other in the war of dominance and popularity. Both had their own fan bases. Some liked the destruction caused by Fire and were impressed by its ability to grow and burn its opponents.
No matter how hard a shield is, it may be impossible to break, but it would definitely melt once faced with a mighty flame. If Fire caused destruction by burning everything it came into contact with, then Ice had its own style. Its way of causing destruction was to freeze everything it touched and turn it into Ice.
Wherever these two stood against each other, the crowd was always divided into two groups: One that supported Hot Fire and the other that thought Ice was cool. The Fire and Ice users were famous for different reasons. The Fire users were known for their Burst Damage and Burn effects that slowly reduced the HP of their opponents in cycles.
The offense of Fire users was off the charts, while Ice users were more of a streak type. The offense of Ice users was excellent, while their defense was also solid. An Ice mage could make the whole opponent group move in slow motion, making them an excellent target to practice the spells of their team.
Moving away from this discussion, which would last till eternity, Ice and Fire have come face to face once again. The most important part was that both users were fighters, which made it even more interesting. The Fist covered in flame met the Fist covered in Ice. Continuous encounters always lead to different results; sometimes, Fire is able to melt some amount of Ice, while other times, Ice succeeds in extinguishing some amount of Fire.
The battle continued for quite a while, but none of the fighters looked tired. It was as if everything that happened until now was a warm-up. They were both saving their main skills while trying to force their opponent to reveal his. Rajan saw he was not gaining any advantage, so he used his skill, 'Incarnation of the Fire Demon.'
An explosion took place around Rajan that pushed Rishi back. He held his head with his knees bent and roared. What appeared soon was a humanoid monster. Its hair was made up of burning red flames released from its nostrils. Multiple strange patterns that looked like cracks surrounded its whole body. A liquified flame could be seen moving through those cracks.
The height difference became visible as it removed its hands from his head and straightened its back. The two half-broken horns became visible and soon lit up and started burning as a torch to make them appear bigger. The face of the creature became triangular.
A warmth flashed through the nearby area as two eyes that looked like the opening of a volcano became visible. It was as if molten Magma would shoot out any second from them, but nothing like that happened. The clothes worn before were burned; what replaced them were strange shorts made of Fire.
The creature's lips curled up. He pointed at Rishi with his elongated fingers and sharp, long black-colored nails as if challenging him. Rishi looked at the monster that inserted a trace of fear in everyone watching him; his eyes matched the eyes of the opponent.
A smile appeared on Rishi's face as he charged at his opponent again. This made the opponent enraged. As Rishi was not using his 'Ice Form' to face him, Rishi didn't care about the tantrums of his opponent. A white glow appeared on his chest, and his 'Frozen Armor' soon surrounded him.
As he moved closer, a layer of frost surrounded his whole body, and now his whole body was covered in a layer of Ice. This additional layer gave him additional durability. It was not due to his 'Frost Armor' skill but was the complete form of his 'Ice Enhancement' skill; previously, he was not using it to its full capabilities.
The Fire Demon shot its body towards Rishi, looking like a ball of comets on land. Just as they were about to hit each other, the land below the Fire Demon burst out, turning into multiple ice spikes. They stopped his moment, but they were crushed under his feet before melting in the next moment.
Enraged Fire The Demon punched at his opponent but soon discovered that the opponent had retreated. It was about to chase him, but the next moment, dozens of chains appeared and held him. Rishi, who was retreating, suddenly disappeared; the next moment, he was behind his opponent, his right hand covered in an Ice storm.
He was using the glacial Execution' technique of his Ice Noval Battle Art. This technique absorbed the energy released by the previous attack and charged it into a devastating finishing strike. Rishi's attack created an explosion when it hit the opponent's back. The sound of cracks could be heard, followed by a demonic cry.
The chains burst apart the next moment, and two burning suns filled with volcanoes stared back while two punches tore through the air and released a powerful blast. Instead of an expression of joy, all the eyes of the Demon carried were a disappointment.
A silver-haired boy could be seen sighing while standing a few meters away from the humanoid Beast in front of him. His attack had dealt a lot of damage due to the surprise factor, but he didn't know that it would still not be able to take down his opponent.
His chains could only stop it for a second, but Rishi was careful; he instantly used 'Shadow Blink' to move away when he finished his attack. While it was a pity that due to moving to a non-shadow area, this skill had entered a one-minute cooldown period,
Everyone held their chairs as they witnessed this Brawl, and while fights between Mages and other classes were visually appealing, nothing matched the excitement and thrill of a hand-to-hand battle. Rajan had improved a lot since the last time he faced Rishi, but unfortunately, his opponent was in a different league now.
Everyone knew that Rishi was not even serious right now; He was having fun. A golden glint appeared in Rishi's eyes as if he had heard their voices. Four dark, razor-sharp Chakrams appeared around him the next moment, but that was just the beginning.
The next moment, multiple black-colored chains appeared around him, moving like snakes, and behind him was an area filled with chains. This was the first time everyone had seen Rishi use so many chains; no one knew he could summon so many at once.
This skill was always discussed, as it was one of Rishi's signature skills. Everyone had a number that they thought was the limit, but in front of them, the limits set by them were broken in seconds. While most of the students were impressed, some said that it was just a show. Summoning these many chains would cost a lot of Mana.
Even if Rishi could summon so many of them, he would lose even faster as he would run out of mana, but little did they know that his 'Chains of Shadow' skill worked differently. It used mana to just summon them; for maintaining them, Shadow Energy was used, and Shadow Energy was something that Rishi had in limitless quantity.
