Chapter 23 - Rebellion Of The Seas: Emerald Wave Sword

"But for that to work, you would need to charge it," added Z.

The Lost Mage snapped his fingers. The Time Mage answered by taking out his twin daggers. Raiyen then lunged towards the girl. She held the shield up just in time, facing the attack with the huge metal. As the two were stale, she pushed against the Time Boy and started swinging against him.

The turn of events did not faze her and neither did the fact that Raiyen was her best friend. The transition from offensive weaponry to using defensive weaponry for both attacking defending was quite hard for Mavislin at first, but she was able to fight evenly later on.

They clashed constantly. Raiyen landed on the shield once more, using his twin daggers. She pushed him away, making him land on his back. She then noticed the shield was glowing even brighter now, perhaps a sign that it was nearly full.

"Mav! Try yelling out the name at Raiyen to create an offensive attack!" yelled Z, as the two kept fighting.

Mavislin had managed to get the message and placed the shield directly in front of her. As Raiyen dived in for another strike, the Valkyrie placed both her hands at the back of the shield.

"Lord Atlantia!" she cried out, sending a huge beam of light towards the Time Mage.

Rather than the usual effects like a beam of light, the spell was more similar to a shockwave of some sorts, judging by the way the debris caused. Raiyen glitched out just in time, but the rocks behind were not so lucky.

"I knew I had to battle you. I just didn't think it would kill me," murmured Raiyen, landing on one of the unbroken rocks.

Meanwhile, Mavislin was still marveling at the sight of the shield.

"Okay, one strike using Heaven Sent and Hell Bent should charge it up fully," instructed the Lost Mage, as they clashed for the last time.

"Remember to aim it towards the clearing over there. We don't want to die today," warned Baldwin.

He had been quiet for some time since he doesn't like to go near bodies of water.

"You got it!" yelled Raiyen.

With an unearthly speed, he struck the shield. Mavislin was caught off guard. Her feet were now plunged into the ground.

"Light seeps into the air, Hope fills the land. Let there be joy, Let there be no pain. Heaven Sent!" recited Raiyen as he slashed the golden dagger at the shield.

Mavislin tried her best to withstand the attack. A loud clang was heard.

"Darkness seeps into the air, despair fills the land. Let there be pain, let there be no joy. Hell Bent!" he chanted once more.

Another clang. With the final slash of the silver dagger, the shield started to shake violently. It was excruciatingly painful for Mavislin as she tried moving the fully charged shield towards the clearing.

It was odd, the attack had absorbed Raiyen's attack since the Elemental Energy from the twin daggers had been transferred onto the shield. Instead of the usual skill that shields possess, to only deflect.

"Emerald Wave Sword!" she yelled.

The spear on the shield had popped out, evaporating and appearing on Mavislin's palms. The spear turned into a misty form of a sword that appears almost invisible. It glowed emerald with streams of aquamarine Water Element surrounding it.

To Mavis, it looked like she was holding a transparent sword. But to others, it was pure invisible. The poor girl had no clue. She then proceeded to swing the sword.

"Wave Slash!" yelled Mavislin once more.

A huge crescent moon attack froze all within its pathway. It had narrowly missed Raiyen's spell. As the attack was done, she held up the sword and the shield together in an attempt to negate the twin daggers' power.

"All winds gather and become my sword. Gather up the remains of protection, for the light never dies. For hearts will never be broken anymore. Rebellion of the Seas!"

Then, a torrent of water and lightning came out from both the shield and the sword. It liberated the entire pathway of the forest. The sword and shield disappeared right after the beam of light.

"You okay?" asked Raiyen, holding the girl up.

"Better than the woodland creatures on that pathway," she replied, struggling to stand straight.

"Hmm, we didn't expect that it would be too much for you to handle. Do you want us to lower it down?" asked Z.

"No, don't. I can make up for that power easily, just give me time," she said, with fierce protest in her eyes. Z sighed and nodded.

"Fine, since you are so determined. Just don't kill yourself achieving that," said Z, walking away to the new location for the test try of his Ancient Relic.
