Chapter 343 Lyrian Versus Linus

These words caused an aura of awe within the room. Lyrian smirked, "I\'m no bull," He paused, "But I\'m sure even you know that by now."

"Enough of the useless words. Get ready Theageld." Linus gracefully took his wand out from his waist belt. He held it by his side, as Lyrian also unsheathed his blade.

\'If I know anything, Linus will be just as tough, if not even more tough, than Drake.\' Lyrian mused to himself. \'Back in the banquet, the two fought for the prized cultivation technique. The one who won it in the end was... Linus. I don\'t know why it was him--must have been something in the background that occurred--but his cultivation was superior to Drakes, that\'s for sure. I am sure Drake\'s cultivation technique was almost up to par, but there is no doubt in my mind that Linus\' made him stronger.\'

At that moment, Linus waved his wand carefully in the air. "Lunar Calendar," he whispered under his breath, as a luminescent yellow sphere that turned on its axis materialized in front of him. 

Lyrian recognized it to be the same move that Linus had used against Godfrey during their duel in the banquet. The sphere had several white lines checkering across it. This made it seem as though it was made of squares, like an elaborate puzzle piece.

Linus slowly began moving his wand left, as the sphere jerked to the left for hundreds of turns at once. This went small gusts of wind waving through the air, and everyone could feel it brush against their faces. In the end, it abruptly stopped as Linus\' wand also stopped moving. 

"For you, I\'ll go... 20," Linus muttered under his breath, as a single square on the sphere gleamed brighter than the rest. The square floated up and out of the sphere, causing it to disperse into light. At that moment, the square entered Linus\' body, invigorating him in a slightly yellow light. His eyes widened, as a serious furrow donned his face.

Lyrian wasn\'t going to let the boy appear too strong either, however. \'I went up to 85% Enhancement with Drake. For Linus, I\'ll start with 90%.\' As he mused this, he closed his eyes for a split second and entered the mode of Smithing. His body soon burst into a fiery green aura. 

\'Enhance again? Why does he keep using such a basic magic spell? Even though it does appear strong, there is a reason that these types of spells are abandoned by greater mages... it\'s because there are better, more powerful alternatives.\' Linus thought to himself as he watched Lyrian prepare.

\'Still... I\'ll let him prepare. Not because he let me, but because I don\'t see a need to attack him while he\'s unprepared. That would only make me seem desperate, and weaker. I know I can defeat with fair effort, so there is no reason for me to cheat.\' Whilst Linus thought to himself, so did Lyrian, \'For Linus, I think the snake will be most effective.\'

"Panda Kung-Fu; Fourth Formation: Snake." He took in a big breath, and as soon as he exhaled, it felt as though his previous human self left along with his breath. He had shed off his previous self, and now unlocked a new being in this arena; the serpent.

The snake\'s specialty was simple, as in real life--vicious attack! Lyrian\'s eyes flew open, as he targeted his spiritual aura naturally toward his opponent. This caused Lyrian to be transformed into a giant, coiled-up green viper in the eyes of Linus.

Linus\' eyes widened ever so slightly, \'Impressive... so this is what Drake saw. I must say, his ability to mimic an animal\'s presence so close that he transforms into them in aura is incredible. However... that isn\'t good enough. Not even close. After all... it\'s just a snake.\'

"Prepare to lose," Linus exclaimed.

"Come at me," Lyrian said back with utmost determination.

At that moment, Linus moved forward at incredible speed, seemingly teleporting in front of Lyrian. Lyrian didn\'t make a single move, simply blocking his body with his hands, one of which held his blade.

Linus disappeared from his front and appeared behind him. He thrust his wand forward into Lyrian\'s back with force, but at that very moment, Lyrian\'s body twisted back. His blade thrust behind him as his body turns fully around on his feet. The blade, powered by his entire body, instead threatened to pierce Linus.

\'Fast!\' Linus exclaimed, inwardly having to back off. As he appeared on the other side of the arena, a bead of sweat formed on his forehead. \'What the hell was that!? His speed was far too much, even faster than when he fought Drake.\'

"Lunar Calendar, day 22, 23, 24... 25," the prince tapped his chest each time he added another number to the Lunar day. As he did, another square seemed to appear in the air and enter his body. \'I shouldn\'t have underestimated him this much it seems.\'

He tried to move forward once again, this time even faster than before. However, Lyrian remained totally calm. He simply waited for his prey to come near with utmost concentration.

Linus neared him and unleashed a series of wand slashes, each releasing powerful blades of light. However, Lyrian was quick to evade all of them, as he swiftly moved forward in a zig-zag pattern. Linus\' head turned left, then right, as Lyrian appeared to be moved all over the place. He backed up as Lyrian stepped closer, not knowing where Lyrian was going to strike from.

Lyrian stopped for a moment, and that\'s when Linus exclaimed, "Fine... let me not play around then. Lunar Calendar, day 26!"
