Bang boom kririk
Ice and fire collide, sending bursts of sizzling hot steam all around the beach.
Asta dodges, jumping around like a monkey as he ran with his bags in hand and Goliath floating behind him.
"THIS IS CRAZYYYyyyy-"
A fireball crashes in front of Asta, sending him flying with the shockwave as he spun around in the air and crashed into one of the shops.
Groaning in pain as he tried to stand up, Asta found himself temporarily spared from the onslaught of attacks and took a moment to breath.
"Those maniacs" he utters in shock as the glorious beach look like a aftermath of a battlefield. "... I just need to l-. MY BAGS!"
Asta had forgotten his bags outside and now in front of his very eyes,he watched all his souvenirs and materials be attacker with magic after magic.
He couldn't watch it. Couldn't Watch his expensive items he spent out of his pockets for to be destroyed before he even get the chance to make something out of them.
He dashed forward, his hand going towards his grimoire as he brought Tyrant and charged forward like bull.
Wings sprouted out of his back, 4 black wings that would make him look like a dragonfly if they didn't look like demon and dragon wings.
"Make Way!!, he grabbed his items in instant but couldn't stop or turn his momentum.
So soon, Asta crashed into the sea of flames and ice and blasted them both away with anti-magic cnd kept going until he crashed on some shop on the other side.
Both Noelle and The Magnus family's Scion were baffled in denial. They just witnessed some random guy without any pressure turn into some sort of monster and blast away their magic.
Their bafflement grew even further as they saw him clutching onto some shopping bags and felt completely lost.
"My Ice!"
" My flames!"
The two muttered in unison as they watched Asta stand up from the rubble of the shop with his giant axe still in hand.
"Phew.. my materials are safe. Now to leave this battlefield and go to the hotel."
"STOP!"
The magnus's scion stopped Asta, his red eyes growing even redder in anger as glared with hostility.
"You think you can just leave after interrupting us?"
"Pretty much. Whatcha ya gonna do about it?"
"YOU PEASANT!! EAT THIS"
The scion attacked with a shower of Ash, Flames and Magma as Asta simply raised tyrant and swung it like a baseball bat.
"U-Unbelivable.. it can't be"
The flames parted, the magma was tossed aside along with ash as not a single speck of magic came close to Asta.
Completely untouched by anything except the heated air, Asta stood undefeated with his shopping bags in hand.
'This moron looks like a idiot. Should I help Noelle take him down?', Asta thought for a second and contemplated his thoughts and decided against it. "Nah, I shouldn't mess with someone else's fight. Unless it comes down to a deathmatch i won't interfere."
Then leaving the stuttering Scion who was bombarding empty threats behind, Asta left the beach with a nonchalant expression.
Meanwhile Noelle was in confusion.
"Isn't that the guy who I blasted without reason? Why does he feel familiar for a reason?"
"Oi missy."
Noelle turns to the Scion who called her.
"What is it you weakling? Already disheartened by a peasant?"
"You better shut your stupid mouth and fight!! I need to vent some anger."
"My apologies then. You won't be venting anything but your blood."
Sea magic: poison of Leviathan
The beach was filled with mist, a colourless white mist that begins spreading like a wildfire in a grassland
The Scion raises his eye and covered his mouth and activated his artifact, creating a mana bubble around him.
The mist couldn't penetrate the bubble and Soon the mist was retracted back into Noelle's spell.
"Using a artifact in a duel? You are unworthy of being a noble."
"Oh? Then I guess you won't be one either after I marry you because you can't defeat me."
"We will see about that."
However as Calmly as Noelle was bluffing, inwardly she was nervous and anxious.
' I should have bought my shield as well, my magic can't pierce through that 6th tier artifact's defenses.'
'Lady Noelle.. should we ask him for help?'
A voice came out of the grimoire, the voice of the Noelle's grimoire spirit.
'Call for help. We are alone you know that right Levi?'
'We aren't miss. Look at the watch tower.'
Noelle turned her head at the remark, shifting her view to the top of the watch tower where she saw Asta sitting.
He was calm and collected with a gaze as cold as snake's as he looked down upon the battlefield.
'but how do we ask for help? That punk would complain to his elders and those old foggies will only listen to him.'
'well I am open to helping.'
Another voice came to Noelle, this time from her shoulder instead where she saw a small bettle flying.
'who are you?'
'That big guy's sprit contractor, he told me to help balance the scales.'
'what are you going to do then?'
'I can remove that bubble as you land your next attack.'
Noelle was confused. She had never heard of some spirit disabling a artifact but she was ready to bet.
She nods at Yubin as she prepares to fire her stronger attacks.
Sea magic: Kraken's snares, Serpent spear
Hundreds of tentacles made from water rose out of the ground and imprisoned the bubble as as magic circle appeared above Noelle.
The next moment a serpent came through, only for it to shrink and coil into a spear that soon fell to Noelle's hands.
"It's meaningless! You won't be able to destroy this bubble and I will win without fighting."
The scion snared at Noelle as he expressed his confidence in the bubble and didn't even bother moving.
Noelle charged, a stream of water appearing behind as she was pushed forward like a waterjet until she was right in front of the bubble.
Disrupt
The artifact disables, the bubble vanishes as the scion didn't even have the chance to understand as the spear hit him straight on.
He was pierced in the stomach, only to be spun in a spirl as he twirled like a wheel and sent crashing straight into the shop Asta broke recently.
"H-How!? The b-*cough* Bubble wasn't supposed to be-"
The guy faints and Soon a black shadow appeared beside him and carried him away.
Noelle on the other hand was laughing joy as he sent insult after insults to the guy and turned to thank Yubin but he wasn't there.
"Eh? Where did he go?"
She turned to the watch tower quickly, Asta was gone as well as if they didn't even exist but she knew why they vanished.
"I guess he didn't want any political trouble.. Welp i can't blame hin for that."
And just like that the duel came to a end, with the cheating scion being cheated to half death with a good ending for Noelle and Asta who escaped with his items intact.
