Talent Awakening: Draconic Overlord Of The Apocalypse

Chapter 318: Testing The Ropes With The Team



Axel and Blitz stood on the sparring arena, wooden daggers in hand, their eyes locked on Miyu, who remained unarmed in front of them.

Axel bounced lightly on his heels, warming himself up. Blitz, on the other hand, adopted a more relaxed stance, though her eyes were filled with mischief, a look that promised she was ready for whatever Miyu would bring.

Blitz raised an eyebrow, glancing at Miyu, who stood with her arms casually folded, seemingly unfazed by the situation.

"So," Blitz said, a teasing smirk curling on her lips, "what's the deal, Miyu? You don't even have a weapon. You sure you're up for this?"

Miyu's lips curled into a small smile. She shifted her weight, standing in a relaxed but confident stance.

"Don't think too much about it," she replied. "All I've got are some training sessions with my brother. I don't really know how to use any weapons yet. So for now, I prefer to use my fists."

Axel's grin widened, clearly amused by the lack of a weapon. He twirled his dagger in his hand with ease. "Fists, huh? Well, this should be interesting."

Blitz chuckled, stepping forward and adjusting her stance, gripping her dagger tightly. "I like a good challenge. But don't think just because you're unarmed, we'll go easy on you."

Miyu simply nodded, with this self assured air around her. She raised her fists in front of her, ready to begin.

Alister, watching from the sidelines with a knowing smile, spoke up. "Keep it fair, both of you. Miyu may not have a weapon, but don't underestimate her."

Axel and Blitz exchanged glances, their smirks only deepening. "Oh, we wouldn't dream of it boss," Axel said, his voice filled with excitement.

"If she is your sister. Than she definitely has some moves... So we won't get cocky," Said Blitz.

"Alright then," Blitz added. "Let's see what you've got, Miyu."

Axel and Blitz's mana flared around their bodies in an instant, a vibrant energy wrapping around them like a shield as their Rush talent was activated. Axel's green mana swirled like fire as he raised his dagger, his grin widening.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Blitz's pink mana, lighter but no less intense, wrapped around her, her eyes glinting.

"Brace yourself!" Axel called, his voice full of excitement. His energy surged, and he lunged forward, dagger flashing as he aimed a strike at Miyu's side.

Miyu's golden mana flared to life with a sudden intensity, her body radiating a brilliant golden aura. Her eyes narrowed, and she dropped into a low stance, her fists raised in perfect form.

"I will," Miyu said firmly, a confident smile. "And I am certain I'll claim victory."

Her golden aura exploded around her like a storm, a rush of energy that crackled with power. Her movements were smooth and precise as she swiftly sidestepped Axel's first strike, using his momentum to push him off balance with a well-timed jab to his midsection. The blow was enough to knock him back a step, but not enough to stop him.

Blitz darted forward from the side, a quick blur of motion, and her dagger aimed for Miyu's ribs. With a snap, Miyu twisted, her arm coming up in a swift parry, blocking Blitz's dagger with the back of her fist. The force of the impact caused a shockwave that pushed them both back for a split second.

Axel recovered quickly, a grin still plastered on his face. "Impressive!" he called out, flipping his dagger expertly in his hand.

He moved to engage again, his body low to the ground as he slid forward like a snake. With a flick of his wrist, he sent a sharp, fast thrust at Miyu's thigh.

Blitz, meanwhile, had already repositioned herself, circling around to Miyu's other side. They moved together in perfect harmony, Axel acting as the bait while Blitz aimed for a knock out.

Miyu's eyes tracked both of them in an intent. She saw Axel's strike coming but knew she couldn't focus solely on him.

In a fluid motion, she dropped into a crouch, dodging Axel's dagger by inches. At the same time, she spun, using her momentum to strike Blitz's approaching hand, sending her dagger flying into the air.

Without missing a beat, Miyu's golden mana surged around her body, turning her into a blur as she followed up with a flurry of punches, targeting Axel's exposed side.

Axel, managed to block one of her strikes, but not the next. The punch connected with his ribcage, sending a sharp jolt of pain through him, but his grin didn't fade.

"You've got guts," Axel said, laughing through the pain as he staggered back.

Blitz, regaining her balance, rushed in again, faster this time. She feinted left, then darted to the right, attempting to cut off Miyu's escape. Axel followed her lead, charging in from the opposite direction.

Miyu didn't falter. As Blitz closed the gap, Miyu ducked under a slash aimed at her head and kicked off the ground, launching herself upward with a powerful jump.

She twisted in the air, avoiding both Axel's and Blitz's attacks in a graceful arc. Her feet landed softly on the ground, and with no hesitation, she spun into a rapid combination of punches, her fists a blur of motion as she attacked both of them.

Axel narrowly blocked one of her strikes, but another caught him across the jaw, sending his head snapping back. Blitz sidestepped, narrowly avoiding Miyu's powerful kick, but the wind from it still ruffled her hair.

"She's faster than I thought," Blitz muttered, narrowing her eyes as she leaped back and shifted into a more defensive stance.

Axel, a wild grin on his face, wiped the blood from his lip. "True... But we can't let her show us up, we gotta establish dominance sis."

"You have a point." Blitz said with a grin.

Both of them charged in.

Axel distracted Miyu with a series of fast, unpredictable strikes, while Blitz moved like a shadow, closing the gaps and seeking an opening. Their movements were seamless, as if they'd practiced together for years.

Miyu, however, was no slouch. She used her speed and agility to weave between their attacks, slipping past Axel's thrusts and dodging Blitz's slashes with incredible skill.

Her fists landed with devastating force whenever they did connect. Each blow she landed sent shockwaves through their defenses, but neither Axel nor Blitz slowed down.
