Chapter 49: The Pearl Mountains(Part 3)
"Come on, I know you two can do a lot better than that," Smirked Aster, as he blocked an incoming blast of purple flames to his right, before raising his left arm and firing out a telekinetic blast as a rapid explosive projectile came shooting in towards him, a fierce explosion bursting out a few meters away to his left as his blast struck the projectile well before it could reach him.
He then swung his black blade across as Raven zipped up and swooped down towards him, coating his claws in lightning and swinging across at Aster's head, who deflected the slash with his blade, cutting off one of Raven's claws and cracking another.
As Raven's eyes began glowing, Aster swiftly swung his right foot up, slamming it onto Raven's stomach and unleashing a telekinetic burst upon impact, sending Raven hurtling through the air, his beams shooting up into the sky, before Aster quickly spun around Celia zipped up behind him.
She unleashed a couple of swift jabs, which he deflected by striking the sides of her wrists with the flat of his blades, before unleashing a telekinetic shockwave to knock her back several meters.
He then swiftly raced across as a swirling sphere of purple flames came plummeting down towards him, crashing onto the ground and charring the dirt black as Raven rapidly swooped down towards Aster, who then came to a halt and assumed a defensive stance.
As Raven closed in on Aster, his hands crackling with lightning, Raven suddenly raised his right hand, his index finger and thumb pressed together as he concentrated lightning into that spot before abruptly releasing it, unleashing an electric, blinding flash of purple light.
Aster let out a startled cry as his eyes were inadvertently forced shot, before Raven swiftly wrapped his tail around Aster's neck and began to lift him up, before his tail was suddenly forced off as Aster activated his Telekinetic Zone and plummeted back down, letting out a sigh of relief as his feet hit the ground with a slight thud.
"Hey, I thought you said you wouldn't use that Spell," Frowned Raven indignantly.
"Sorry, instinct took over, my bad...what were you planning to do with that last move, by the way?" Inquired Aster, as his eyes slowly opened back up.
"Oh, I was going to fly around in circles at full speed while strangling you with my tail, until you passed out."
"...okay, glad I didn't let you do that," Muttered Aster warily, as he thought to himself, "Holy crap, talk about scary."
