Chapter 30: The Commander Squad
"[Grand Flame Breath]!" Chanted Jules, before unleashing a fierce, blazing wave of flames towards Aster.
"[Telekinetic Wall]!" He swiftly responded, the flames coming to an abrupt halt about half a meter in front of him as he formed a wall of telekinesis in front of him, a bead of sweat running down the side of his face as the air around him spiked sharply in temperature.
He then turned his gaze up as Jules raced forward and leapt over his wall, her blade raised high before she rapidly swung it down towards him.
He quickly crossed his twin blades above himself defensively, a loud clang ringing out as her sword slammed against his blades, Aster's knees buckling slightly from the force exerted in the swing of her blade.
"What the...?" Blurted out Jules, her eyes widening in surprise as the flames wrapped around her sword began to get absorbed by Aster's black blade.
She then swiftly opened her mouth, starting to charge up another Spell as flames began swirling inside her mouth...
"[Telekinetic Shockwave]!" Aster quickly chanted, unleashing an intense burst of telekinesis, knocking the Knight Commander away several meters.
Flames burst out of her mouth as she lost control of the Spell she was charging up, before she gritted her teeth and twisted her body around in midair, regaining her balance and bending her knees as her feet hit the ground and skidded back, before she swiftly stood back upright and whipped her blade across at an incoming telekinetic blast, dispersing the attack as her blade sliced through it and killed its momentum.
She then swiftly shot forward, raising her blade as she closed in on Aster before turning her body across as he fired out a telekinetic blast at her, evading it before unleashing a rapid, powerful thrust of her blade at his stomach.
He narrowly deflected the incoming thrust, grimacing as the blade grazed his side, cutting through his leather armor and slicing across his skin, the flames wrapped around the blade singing the cut painfully, his skin sizzling as he let out a stifled gasp of pain.
The pair then unleashed a flurry of rapid cuts and slashes at each other, their attacks more or less even, as they each blocked and deflected some of the other's strikes, while inflicting small cuts and grazes against each other, neither able to land a direct hit.
