Chapter 44 - First Battle: The Queen and Krueger Family

The battle was in full swing. The Seraphs went on the attack with most of then coming forward.

"This looks like trouble." Serena commented. She along with her team were on the battlefield. Her team, the Knights were dressed like how they normally wear except they had a black sash on them with a cube design on it. She realized that most of the Seraph shot arial attacks which they found difficult to dodge.

"I got it." Luz said as she walked forward and looked at the Seraphs with wings. She held a sheath in her hand and pulled out a weapon from it. It was her Stage 6 Drach Weapon.

It was a long golden staff with a purple orb on it that seemed to have a glowing liquid moving in it like a lava lamp. It was very light and thick.

Luz threw it in the air and it began to float. It's magic aspect was wind magic.

Luz then jumped on it and spread her legs and hands apart while standing up straight like a surfer. And with a great gust of wind, it moved forward straight towards the flying Seraphs.

From afar, a ball of scorching fire came towards her.

Luz spread her arms apart and said, "Color Sphere!" And a forcefield of color surrounded her and blocked the attack but then it began to crack after and broke.

'What? That's never happened before. These soldiers are on a different level." Luz was right. All the soldiers in the battlefield were at least at Stage 8 and she was only at Stage 5. If her Casting was water or fire, the forcefield would have stood no chance against the fire ball.

As Luz moved closer to the horde of Seraphs, she had figured out who had shot the attack towards her.

Luz opened her palms.

"Picture Casting: Past Encounter!" She blasted and the Seraph fell down.

"Guess he's not that strong at taking attacks." Luz commented.

Meanwhile, someone on the battlefield had not acted yet and was trying to encourage themself.

"Remember your training." Arina calmed herself down as she walked towards the battle. Her hair was a strange blue color instead of her usual orange hair and her blue eyes had changed to a violet color.

This was because she had used a Disguise Potion to change her appearance incase they recognized her or they knew what she looked like.

Two Seraph soldiers strayed away from the main battle as they saw Arina standing on her own. One of them was a woman with beautiful purple hair while the other was a man with long brown hair. They looked to be quite young, probably in their early twenties.

They ran towards her in unison. Both of their right palms were glowing, the woman had a fist covered in fire while the other had a fist covered in ice.

'Just like the hologram.' Arina thought.

As they came forth and threw out their fists, but Arina ducked before they could make contact with her. This startled them a bit because to them it looked like she ducked before they threw out their fists.

Arina took this to her advantage, she quickly got back up and activated a spell.

"Halo Fist!"

She threw a punch towards the man and immediately after towards the woman, giving them punches in the fast that pushed them back.

A bit of blood was seen on their lips and they were angry.

The woman and man looked at each other before the woman ran towards Arina. Upon seeing this, Arina pulled up her hands in an attempt to block whatever was coming her way but the woman simply jumped over her and continued running.

"Huh?" The man then quickly ran towards Arina.

"Ray Blast." Arina blasted out but the man ducked and then grabbed her by the stomach and pushed her forward.

Arina tried to break out but his grip on her was strong.

Meanwhile, the woman who had ran behind her began to cast a spell with her wand.

"Fire Wall!"

A wall of scorching fire was created in front of her and when the man pushed Arina in her direction, her back and body hit the fire wall.

"Ah!!!" She screamed in pain as the man chucked her to the ground. He had sustained no injury from it because he had let go of her and pulled back just in time.

The woman walked back to the man and they both formed a grin with their lips, thinking she wouldn't be able to stand up.

"No! I'm not done yet!" Arina shouted as she got up from the ground.

The woman and man surprised pointed their wands towards her and a large blast of fire and ice blast that somehow did not clash with each other.

Arina in response, jumped up and performed a backflip and dodged the attack.

"Light Board." A flat circular board of light appeared in the air and she now stood on it. Putting both her arms together, she activated a spell. Orange magic could be seen gathering in her hand. Silently, she then said, "Amplify!" And the Ray Blast was shot towards them.

They obviously thought it wouldn't have hurt them much so they took it head on but they were blasted and were chucked a few feet in the air before landing on the ground.

Arina walked over to them and she saw they had multiple wounds on their body. But most importantly, they were unconscious.

"Phew." Arina felt glad that she didn't kill them cause if she had, she would have been racked with even more guilt.

A blast of lightning was shot towards her but she used her Light Board to dodge it.

'The battle's not over yet.'

* * * * *

Meanwhile, on a different side of the battlefield, Serena and Zane were also faced against two Seraphs.

"I can handle this." Serena said as she stepped forth.

"Mech Casting: Strength Suit." Metal, wires and gears were created and wrap around her creating a bigger suit of metal.

She threw a fist towards them but one of them grabbed her hand and turned her over, causing her to fall to the ground. The other then created daggers made of earth in the air.

"Serena! Checkpoint Casting: Rewind." A green glow emanated off of Zane and the area around her and Serena began to change.

Serena appeared right next to him again while the two Seraphs were facing them again. Zane had rewinded time but not for the entire battlefield as that was something he wasn't capable of yet.

Zane could also control who had memory of what had happened before he rewinded.

Serena noticed Zane was next to her again and remembered what had occured.

"Thanks, Zane."

"Don't mention it, Leader." He said with a cheeky smile on his face.

Serena activated her Strength Suit again, this time prepared for what was about to happen.

She threw out a fist but this time she activated a basic spell and metal wires were released from it.

"Ah!" The metal wires wrapped around the two Seraphs and trapped them.

"Let's try this again. Ha!" Serena threw a punch at them, aiming at their chests and hit them, knocking them unconscious.

Luz then arrived and got off her staff and landed on the ground.

"I took care of most of them but they're still coming." Luz reported and gave a goofy salute.

"We still can't find them. I hope those two are fine." Serena said.

She then looked off in the distance and noticed something and by the looks of it, Luz did too.

"Arina!" They said.
