[Tree Ether analysis and synchronization complete.]
Finn slowly rose to his feet; he was lucky to have this suit. If not for it he would've been a clump of charred meat.
[The suit will now start using your tree ether]
Finn felt a sudden surge of power his body that was once aching felt as light and as nimble as a bird his mind that was in distress was suddenly calm and calculating his vision was sudden clear as day. It was as if he had undergone a drastic power up.
'I guess this is one of the perks of this suit'
[Get ready he's going to attack! I'll block it you attack]
Finn suddenly felt a tug at his finger tips, it seems S.B.A already got the string ready to his fingers. He took a few deliberate steps forwards until the shadow of a bulky man was looming above him. A blade was flying towards his neck… but he didn't have to worry about it because not even a second later the blade was brought to a halt.
Finn took this chance to swing his arm with as much strength as he can but to no avail the warrior jumped back dodging the attack.
Finn stared at the man his eyes were cold and calculating, mind was able to intake so much more information now and his eyes were able to analyze much more than the naked eye can see. Suddenly the man's expression changed his face had a smile strewn over it and his battle stance changed.
As of now the only thing between Finn and escaping this place was this man and that creature.
"I am Stein of the Elven race and I commend you for your skills warrior, it truly is a shame you won't be able to hone them any further"
Finn choose to remain silent it seems that elven wasn't so keen on keeping him alive anymore.
'He's no different than those mercenaries'
[Finn don't worry about defending I've strengthened the string keep on attacking and leave the rest to me I promise ill get you out of here… alive]
'Let's hope he doesn't have any hidden tricks under his sleeve'
The place was going down the walls were charred and the fire was spreading fast the creature hadn't showed it self again yet but it was sure to do so sooner or later. The smoke was enough to drive anyone dead but due to the suit Finn was able to withstand it for longer, that doesn't mean he can stay there for long though he had to get out of there as soon as possible.
'Here we go S.B.A don't let me down'
They both charged at each other Finns moves were slopy and weak but landing an attack on him was proven to be a difficult challenge for Stein. There was a limit to what Finn could handle and due to him being starved he wasn't able to fight to the best he could. Not that it would've made a difference really since he never fought someone like this before.
All he could do for now was dodge S.B.A would deflect or block attacks and Finn would give a shot at attacking back.
Steins moves were smooth and unpredictable he was moving as if he were to be a wave of water smooth enough to be soothing but strong enough to crush someone's skull at least that's what Finn had deduced with his new vision.
Finn had made it a note to keep backing towards the elevator while being attacked. There wasn't that much time left and he needed that elevator to start going up as soon as possible.
'S.B.A take over attacking and defending for a second I need to get this elevator started'
S.B.A didn't respond but it took over for him Finn quickly sprung into action he got to the elevator and clicked the button to ascend.
The elevator started ascending at a steady pace and to Finns relief Stein was one second too late to grabbing onto the elevator platform. It was thanks to S.B.As constant attacking that he was distracted long enough.
From the sides of the walls Finn could see the light of the dancing flames below. Things seemed to have calmed down.
[See there was no need for panicking we're making it out of here]
'I did no such thing as panicking' Finn replied his face drenched with sweat.
Suddenly the elevator shuddered. Finn was dismayed to see and arm grab onto the surface of the platform.
[Oh, me and my encoded mouth]
Stein had climbed onto the platform.
"I take back my words, it is not you that is fighting but the suit, it is truly disappointing to see that I was struggling against a mere child"
They started moving in a circular motion near the edges of the platform.
Finn felt the tug of the string on his finger again.
"I guess it was worth seeing the potential of the suit though, it'll really make a difference for the elven empire" the elven spat
"You know I won't allow myself to die here" Finn replied coldly
"Well, I guess we'll have to see how much is your determination to live child!"
Stein charged at Finn once more and like the last time S.B.A blocked the attack with no effort and Finn attacked with all the might he's got only one of them would be making it out of here with their life.
