Crusader King

In accordance with his plans, as the male ehetrian had been pushed away and was still standing there, confused, he created a thick dome of purple energy above his own head, ,just as he had previously planned, and stepped aside, already knowing how this would most likely play out.

The woman hit the shield, and as she did, the shield slowly began to break, her mana colliding with the mana of the shield and causing it to slowly be destroyed, though it must've been fairly exhausting for her, and probably have resulted in her not even being able to see through the barrier, both things that Cades had already thought of and incorporated, and both things that he was planning for for his next few attacks to do as much damage as possible.

Finally, the female ehetrian pushed through the shield, breaking it and completely descending on that which stood right underneath, on that little present that Cads had prepared for her, she attacked her little partner, as the male ehetrian he had pushed was standing right where he had stood before, still stunted, baffled and confused after what had just happened, after all, the entire thing, the interchange between magic missiles and him positioning the female ehetrian took only about a second, incorporating the speed of descent of the female one.

The axe was positioned almost perfectly and Cades could already see the fear in the eyes of the two that, now that Cades looked a bit closer, seemed to be closer than just partners and more so intent on protecting each other at all costs, but sadly, he had slightly miscalculated the confusion in which the male one had been put, resulting in him being able to evade with barely a deep gash across the whole stomach, growing less deep the further down it went, with him even having been hurt in the leg after the silver axe had ripped half of his skin apart and caused severe bleeding.

Despite this he was still able to push himself away using his now paining feet, escaping from the now neutralised shield dome that Cades had previously put up and leaving his female partner alone, the partner that was still confused but already starting to look at Cades once more, showcasing the same kind of determination and focus as the man had been holding on to while fighting Cades all this time, something that, to him, seemed kind of amusing.

But it was not enough, she might've already stood up once more, but he had already prepared the active he was now going to use, an active that other him favoured quite a lot and an active that he, himself, liked quite a lot as well due to it's compatibility with his very own weapon, the active known as an overload.

The woman was hit straight by the powerful overload, but she somehow remained standing, her mana somehow neutralizing the attack, no, rather than that, she didn't neutralize it, it simply didn't work, however, the other one, the man was also hit and flung back quite a bit, allowing Cades to focus on the little woman that had somehow neutralized one of his favourite actives, aside from the warp which was his personal favourite, something that he should perhaps show this one.

As in the name of the active, the warp step, he used it to take a single step forward, not much, but enough to throw the woman off of her understanding of his current abilities, especially since she hadn't really seen it yet, and more than enough to attack her from close range using his readied weapon to strike at her neck as he sadly couldn't teleport into something, including the stuff he was holding.
