A large tree in the middle of a beautiful garden, which was inside the palace of Visac Deid, with flowers, small but beautiful animals, everything was illuminated by a glass roof from which a light that resembled that of the sun emanated, giving life and energy to everything that was there. Next to the tree, sitting on a silver chair, with one elbow on the table and drinking a glass of wine, was Visac, who liked to spend time in this place every day.
A month had already passed since the battle between Sentinel and Luzbell, and everything was calm, perhaps because those who wanted to face the celestial were planning how to attack, since he had proven to be a great rival.
- What are you doing behind that tree? -Visac asked as he continued drinking his glass of wine.
- Hello, old friend, enjoying the pleasures of life? you have the best wine ever and you just keep it for yourself. -Said the guy, and then started to laugh softly.
- What do you want, Auru? -Visac asked again.
- I came to visit you, if one can't do anything exciting here, I don't want to get rusty either. -Auru answered him.
- I see, you want to train, you want us to face each other.
- Ha, ha, ha, when you say it like that it sounds very ugly, besides, I came to talk, if that celestial destroyed my master, I cannot underestimate it. What surprises me is that you are not reading, as you almost always do when you are here.
- Hmm, if what you want is to fight, here I am, I wouldn't mind facing you, Mortalis. -Said a guy who was lying on one of the highest branches of that majestic tree.
Mortalis was what a mortal who was granted immortality was known as.
- Requiem Dait, so you want to challenge me? but I don't accept, I came here for Visac. -Auru said while showing serenity on her face.
- Maybe you are afraid, since you know that I am not going to contain myself. –Requiem refuted him.
- It's not like you're going to kill me, is it? –Auru told him while smiling defiantly.
- Let's get started. -Requiem said, looking animated.
Visac, who was a mere spectator, stood up and said out loud: -Enough! You are not going to fight here, if they destroy this place, I will punish them.
Requiem and Auru stopped their decisive attempt to start the battle. Since they did not dare to offend Visac.
Visac walked towards one of the exits of the garden, and said to them:
- Did they want to fight? Then come with me, let's go to the third room.
They walked down a hallway that took them to an impressive place that had a battlefield and stands for those who wanted to admire the battles. Visac entered a special room that had the amenities to appreciate the combat comfortably.
- Alice, bring me the bottle of "Imperi Vitae" wine, and also some food and water, to enjoy the moment. -Visac said smiling maliciously.
-Yes sir. -Alice said with a sweet voice.
-Mmm, a battle and you don't invite, my leader, how petty you have become. -Ariac Luzat said.
-You know that's not the case, this came up unexpectedly, and it's always a pleasure to see you. -Visac said.
Ariac Luzat was the most powerful sacred king after Visac, his eyes were purple, like his hair, he was always dressed elegantly, giving the appearance of a gentle and youthful being, who in reality hid a great warrior.
The young woman, who had already noticed Ariac's presence, came with a banquet for both of them, and with the requested bottle of wine.
- Imperi Vitae, there are only three, as I understand it; are we going to take it? -Ariac asked curiously.
-No, it is the prize that I am going to give to the winner. -Visac responded.
- Mmmm, you surprise me, you must already know the result, I don't think it will last that long. -Those were Ariac's words.
- I don't think so, Sentinel was his teacher and he told me that that young man, despite being born as a mortal, could become stronger than him, then, if we consider that Sentinel had enough level to be a Sacred King. -Visac said somewhat excited.
- Yes, if so, we can expect a great fight from that young man belonging to the nobility of his now-defunct home. -Ariac said showing interest.
Auru on one side and Requiem on the other, were waiting for the five torches that illuminated the field to be lit, which detected the presence of the warriors, one, two, three, four, the battle was about to begin, five.
- Fire that burns within me, you who are life, you who radiate light, purity and hope, you are my guide, I will always move forward, I will forge my present and future with this heat. -Auru said as he raised his arms, relaxed his hands, exposing a bright blue aura that surrounded him, which burned like fire and spread throughout the battlefield.
- Melody that resonates with great softness, requiem. -Said Requiem, invoking a beautiful flute with his power.
They both go with everything from the beginning, they have great power, what excitement! -Ariac said.
- This is not based on weapons, but on the power of their auras, and both have a majestic power, which makes the field the scene of a great spectacle. -Visac said showing his satisfaction.
- Also, I want to know what Auru's level is, since Sentinel had high expectations, and Requiem is going to pressure him, making him show us his power. -Visac continued.
Auru had her eyes closed, when she opened them they were completely light blue, she wasn't going to hold anything back. On the other hand, Requiem's aura had increased, but he was in his base state, he had only balanced the level of his powers.
-Who wins this type of combat? -Ariac asked.
- He who gives the first direct blow, we cannot destroy each other. -Visac said smiling, as he prepared to drink a glass of wine that Alice had just served him.
Auru raised her right arm, the aura that spread across the field began to stir, like fire when it gains strength. Requiem, who was immersed in that light that resembled a fire, perceived that Auru's aura was only light, nothing hostile. However, it began to gather in front of Auru until it took the shape of a tornado, then Auru directed his hand in the direction of Requiem without mentioning words and the tornado went in search of the latter at high speed. Seeing the attack approaching Requiem said:
- Melody of the wind. -He began to play his flute with a beautiful sound that seemed to control the wind that went to his defense against the tornado of light, destroying it in an instant.
- The gusts of wind began to head towards Auru, cutting it superficially, while Requiem continued to resonate its melody.
- When his melody ends we will have a winner. -Ariac said.
- I don't think it will be that fast, maybe it will last a little longer. -Visac opposed it.
Burn! -Auru shouted.
Requiem began to feel a heat that was increasing rapidly, however, his opponent's power did not increase, which showed that he had great control of his aura, despite this unforeseen event he continued to play his melody, the heat was so much that it reduced the power of the wind exerted by Requiem that it was only limited to protecting him from the rival aura; Meanwhile Auru was concentrating her power to carry out a single attack, without preventing her aura from continuing to increase its heat, she was waiting for the exact moment, then she said:
- Lightning dawn. –He launched an attack of pure energy that, as he advanced towards his rival, left a trail made up of light of different colors.
At the same time that Auru's attack was launched, Requiem's melody ended, with which the wind that protected Requiem concentrated in a single point to head like a spear towards Auru, but both energies ended up colliding, causing an expansive explosion that cleared the arena of the powerful aura that covered it.
- You are very strong, I was wrong to think that it was just a fancy technique, when in reality it was the technique with which you planned to defeat me. -Said Requiem, who seemed calm.
To his surprise his musical instrument suddenly broke in two, which left him stunned.
- When? It's not possible, you're making this exciting. -Said Requiem, who came out of shock as he was flooded by the enthusiasm that the combat produced in him.
Auru didn't say anything, he looked exhausted, his technique had failed, he had returned to his base state. Then Requiem said to him:
- It's time to end this fight.
- You have said them. -Auru said looking at the ground.
- I'm not one to use direct attacks but it's best to finish this quickly. -Requiem concluded, while running, concentrating energy on the outer side of his right hand, jumping to face Auru.
Ariac stood up from his seat, he was surprised, and said:
- It can't be a…
-Sacred seal! Divine retention! -Auru pronounced, activating the power of the seal that shone with great intensity, leaving Requiem immobilized. Auru attacked him immediately, made a complete turn to deliver a kick directly to the head, which threw his rival against the wall of the battle hall, and thus Auru managed to obtain victory.
