After witnessing the battle between Vinay and Manu, the audience eagerly awaited the battle between Kajal and Nina. Everyone was busy discussing the previous battle, but soon they stopped and started to focus on the current battle. Two girls approached the field and stood against each other.
One was a little shorter in height and had a round face. Her brown hair tied in a pixie cut gave her a cute appearance, but only someone who didn't see her sharp, emerald-like eyes would be deceived by it. She was standing in the right corner, carrying her sheathed hangdang (Sword) in her right hand.
Her opponent was a girl with an oval-shaped face; her black hair tied in a ponytail made her look more mature. Her blue, deep, ocean-like eyes could make anyone drown in them. Kajal was the most beautiful girl in the academy. The girls matured physically faster than the boys, and she was the perfect example of that.
Not many boys in their batch could match her height. She looked at her opponent before taking out her equipment. Like before, she chose the same equipment: a pendant, staff, and robe. Nina also chose her items; the first was her Sword, which was still sheathed, while the other two were her Boots and leather Armor.
The battle started with the Magic sound of the whistle, and Nina charged at Kajal with her feet shining blue. She moved swiftly, like a gust of wind, and appeared within six meters of Kajal in no time. Next, she used 'Sword Dash' and appeared behind Kajal.
Her Sword, surrounded by sparks of Lightning, slashed at Kajal multiple times. Her swift movements took everyone by surprise. Kajal was just about to be hit when a white-colored barrier appeared around her and blocked the attack. Next, she released a 'Lightning Ball' spell that moved at Nina.
Nina used the 'Thunder Dash' skill and retreated back, leaving behind a lightning-ray-like trail. Kajal started casting again. Nina used the Gale Steps' skill a second time and approached Kajal, giving her no time to cast a bigger spell, but this time it was Nina's turn to be surprised as Kajal moved back using the Surf's spell.
Standing on a water wave, Kajal succeeded in creating a distance between herself and her opponent. Nina approached again, her right hand holding her sheath and her left hand touching the handle. They exchanged multiple moves; Kajal defended and retreated while Nina charged.
Everyone was thrilled to watch this fight. As the battle continued, both teams analyzed their opponent's fighting style. Nina saw an opening and charged at Kajal again with her naked Sword, surrounded by Lightning. Kajal used her quick Casting' and created a barrier.
Nina had anticipated this and used her Sword Aura with Cut to destroy the barrier in the first dash. She was about to finish her combo and use another sword Dash' when she was suddenly pushed back. Kajal had disappeared from her location, and next, a storm of Lightning could be seen around Nina.
This was the Lightning Storm's spell on Kajal. It had a long cooldown, but Kajal was able to cast it instantly due to the 'instant Cast' skill of her Magic Staff. "Welcome, Nina to my domain," a voice said above Nina. She looked up and saw Kajal sitting on a throne.
A crown made up of Lightning elements could be seen on her head. Her deep eyes were also filled with Lightning now. "This is just a spell, not a real domain; you can't fool me, Kajal," said Nina as he tightened the grip of her Sword.
Instead of getting angry, a smile appeared on Kajal's face. "It would have been so if some other person was using this spell, but when used by me, this will be no less than a domain." She pointed her hand at Nina, and soon multiple Lightning bolts approached her.
Nina used her Sword to destroy them while also relying on her movement skills to dodge others. "Is it all too weak to even be called a zone?" said Nina before she danced through and jumped at Kajal. She used her wind element skill, 'cloud steps, and appeared before Kajal.
"Next time, don't underestimate me," said Nina before using the Sword Dash' and 'Quick Draw' combo. Her attack hit Kajal, which enraged multiple students in the Battle Arena, but the next moment the Kajal before her turned into lightning form, and the attacks passed through her, dealing no damage.
She looked at Nina, standing with her mouth wide open, as if unwilling to accept that something like this could happen. "Not bad; it looks like I must go all out." The words had just left her beautiful lips when Nina felt a chill in her back.
She used 'Thunder Dash' and retreated. Multiple lightning Orbs had appeared in her previous position, but that was not all. Instead of continuing to move in the same direction they followed Nina, she kept destroying and dodging them before she was hit by one of them.
Her whole body jolted; she was not stunned due to her having the Lightning Element, and the damage was also reduced. Oops, my bad, I forgot you will not be paralyzed easily." Instead of feeling joy at being praised, A bead of sweat appeared on Nina's forehead.
Kajal's fighting style was weird; It was as if she were playing chess with her. She felt like she was losing all her pieces one by one, but before more thoughts could appear in her mind, two eagle-like birds appeared. They were made up of Lightning; they moved like lightning bolts, leaving behind a trail of Lightning.
The battle continued, Nina was able to defend herself, but as the battle continued, she was getting more hurt. Kajal never fought from the front; she used multiple traps and feints. While Nina was proficient in using her skills and a strong fighter, she was not able to handle Kajal's mind games.
This revealed to her that she needed to work on her mental strength too. Even though Nina was at a disadvantage, she was pretty persistent. Kajal used many methods, but none worked on her. If she used strong spells, she destroyed or dodged them.
If she summoned more creatures of Lightning, Nina would only need a slight opening before she executed her full combo. Her damage output was strong enough to melt even durable tanks; these creatures made up of lightning elements were nothing before her attacks.
At last, Kajal needed to burn her Mana and close all paths for Nina to retreat before using the 'Lightning Punishment' spell on her. The whole body of Nina was jolted by the first strike from the Lightning Punishment. She surrendered immediately; she knew that as the number of strikes increased, the damage would also be amplified.
