Miles looked at the screen. His opponent was going to choose the battlefield, but he didnt have any problem with it. All he wanted to do was check his new powers and see if he could copy techniques in the virtual arena. It seemed plausible but after all the virtual arena was not real. Attacks manifested because the brain would believe they would. It was just a copy of real life.
As soon as he appeared in the circular, plain arena, Miles directed his energy into his eyes. His vision changed, but he failed to see where the opponents seed was. It only meant, his powers werent working in the virtual arena, as he couldnt manifest them there.
At least I can try my powers. He cheered himself up and looked at his opponent. Across him was standing a petite woman. She was not taller than 160 cm. Her assets were also unpresuming. She was wearing a mask similar to Miles, so he couldnt see her identity.
When the countdown reached 0, she raised both hands and a door opened in the air. From within, a tiger on blaze walked out majestically.
A summoner? Miles asked in surprise, but it wasnt the end. From another door, a fire owl walked out. With it, she was all set. She jumped on the tiger and created a pole from her element.
This is going to be troublesome. Miles shook his head. He couldnt use his ultimate, as it would give away his identity almost immediately. So, he could only use regular techniques and abilities.
He started with Heart Branch. He gathered energy and the wind started to cover his body. A globe of wind with half a meter diameter surrounded his body. The wind was spinning endlessly, and it was blowing outward, so if the summons were to attack with fire, the barrier of wind would protect him.
He proceeded with Body Branch. He covered his skin with energy and strengthened his defense. He changed the shape of his left forearm to a shield covered with the wind element and changed his right hand into a sword. Lightning was swirling around it.
And lastly, he led some energy into his mind and mind-limb and created some defense against mental attacks. He didnt think anyone could put him under illusion in Form-Rank, but being cautious wouldnt hurt.
All of these preparations took less than three seconds and without prior signal, both sides started to attack. The petite girl rode the tiger and galloped towards Miles at full speed. The owl was also diving from the sky with its glorious wings.
Miles ignored the avian for the time being and used his pure speed to dash forward. When he was in front of the tiger, he swung his right arm and lightning surrounding the sword flew out like an energy blade. It traveled towards the girl. The tiger stood up on his hind legs and swiped its front, dismissing the lightning attack, but lightning and fire weren't a good match, as soon they clashed, a small explosion occurred. Taking advantage of it, Miles blew a breeze from his mouth. It strengthened the effect and the fire grew. Of course, the fire wouldnt hurt the opponent nor the summons, but Miles's aim was to distract them not to hurt them.
When they were distracted, he dashed forward with the shield arm and hit the tiger on the head. Dizzied, the tiger took a step back. Miles took advantage of the opening and stabbed his arm to the tigers side. It killed the poor creature in one attack.
In real life, the summons could die, but since it was a virtual world, it only dissipated. The girl started to fall to the ground since her summon had died. But the owl swooped down and grabbed her by the collar.
You did it now! She cried in anger and created a tornado of fire and sent it towards Miles.
I was waiting for something like this. Miles smiled and gathered every piece of energy he could. He created a tornado of his own from the wind element and changed the characteristic of his energy to sticky. The wind tornado clashed with the fire tornado. At first, they were in a stalemate, but in no time at all, the wind tornado swallowed the fire and kept on moving towards the girl.
"What is this!?" She cried in pain. Her element was fire, so she wouldn't be damaged by the fire so long as she covered herself with energy, but when the tornado hit her, it didn't let her go. She couldn't free herself from it. The fiery wind was cutting her skin every second.
"I give up!" She shouted and all the attacks vanished. She landed on her two feet and her appearance was as if nothing happened, but Miles could see the dread in her eyes. In the next second, both of them disappeared.
