Zenia's entire body was covered in a faint light gold coating with abundant blue, red, and green motes.
She had decided to go all out since Rin's deadly attacks had already broken her Prana Kavach and injured her.
"Finally raring, eh?" Rin grinned and swiftly chugged a Mana potion to recover her energy as she floated 100 meters away from Zenia, maintaining a safe distance.
'Then I'll also have to use energies I've been saving.'
Rin hadn't used her Blade Energy to boost her attacks, but the next moment, lightning crackled in every particle around her before she vanished from her spot, her arm swinging her Katana as she started spinning.
But this time, she had improved her skill technique such that she could move while spinning as well.
At that moment, Zenia's expression changed as her Spirit Sense captured deadly slashes coming at her, 'You left me no choice.'
Zenia's body suddenly flickered in digital style, breaking into particles before her coatings melted into her sword.
Rin lost Zenia's presence for a second as her slashes struck the forest and Lilith's barrier.
The world around Rin changed as she appeared in a dark gold ocean with golden lights holding colorful motes below in the sea.
Rin stopped, her eyes wide.
Zenia floated fifty meters away from her and said, "This is my Domain Art: Sea of Myriad Lights."
And then, in the blink of an eye, Rin saw a golden river enveloping her in a meters radius area, with colorful glowing swordfish of spirit form whirling in the spinning spherical stream.
She could feel Zenia's presence, but it suddenly fell all over in this sphere.
Rin decided to spend half of her Mana as she unleashed a few thousand slashes towards the domain that trapped her.
Her Severum activated, but since her slashes were hitting different targets each time in this flowing domain with an abundance of those strange swordfish, the Severums couldn't stack enough to sever it.
"Prepare your big move, Rin."
Rin suddenly heard Zenia's voice. It was deadpan, not mocking her. However, Rin could sense Zenia's confidence in beating her and a clear disdain.
Rin's eyes flashed a red glint, and her grip tightened.
She didn't want to use her Blood Essence because she was close to leveling up her Bloodline.
'But to find out my current power against proper Royal-order, I'll have to go all out.'
Rin was forgetting that she was weaker than Zenia in terms of almost everything statistically.
She stood straight and held her Katana before her as she spent all of her Mana, turning them into Chronace Flow before she spent all of her Blade Energy, Spirit Force, and 7 Blood Essence as per the limit of her skill's execution.
She combined all energies and fueled them into her body's paths, which all pointed toward the execution of a powerful move.
"Usually, you won't get this much time when you face a Royal-order in their domain, and the attacks I will unleash won't be bound by your strange element's power because of my attack's structure and speed. Most importantly, their raw power that's higher."
"This is a sure-death move, Rin. So I hope…your lady Lilith can save you."
Rin's veins glowed, and the space around her turned blurry. "Bring it on. I am ready."
The abundant swordfish whirling around in the domain's border glowed before releasing deadly, scorching beams toward Rin.
Rin's figure blurred at once as she made a horizontal slash and started spinning. In an instant, a slick dark silver spinning disk formed around Rin, its sharpness immeasurable. The tiny dark red crackling particles were further empowering it and kept it balanced with Rin's control.
Without Chronace Flow, executing this move was impossible.
She spun in one place while her Katana continued a perpetual slash in this single space, forming this perpetual round slash resembling a chakram.
She wasn't releasing slashes but condensing them into one!
As Zenia's beams struck Rin, the Chronace Flow's influence triggered in a way different than Zenia expected. It didn't slow down her attack, but Chronace Flow made her attacks alter every so slightly as they passed by Rin at mere centimeters, causing those beams to hit Zenia's own domain.
Naturally, this had no effect on Zenia's domain. She just received her spent energy back.
However, Zenia also felt strangely threatened as she looked at the condensing blade around Rin with her perpetual spin.
She attacked Rin for two seconds more but got her energy back.
'Time to finish it,' Zenia thought as she knew Rin was about to release her attack.
…
On the other hand, Morgana had also enacted her domain, a purple icy forest with exotic ice crystal purple flowers, trees, and other plantations.
Erix initiated his attacks, his punch projectiles shooting at Morgana at lightning speed due to gathering so much force while on perpetual move without pause by going through wormholes.
But a big ice purple flower opened and burst out glowing purple icy pollen, freezing all incoming punch projectiles.
Erix immedialty halted, saving half of his Punch projectiles as he controlled wormholes and took them back.
"Why did you pause?" Morgana smiled.
"Tsk, I wasn't expecting you to nullify my attacks so straightforwardly," Erix clicked his tongue before he grinned. "It looks like I'll have to get into my more powerful form."
His metal suit changed specifically his limbs. They pumped and connected to Erix's mind. His level 4 Metal Control began as he vanished from his spot and appeared before Morgana with a teleport blink.
Sling Shot Punch 3.0.
His punch went forward, but Erix saw a metal hexagonal plate appearing to block it, but before that, his wormhole also appeared.
Morgana also saw a wormhole before her face, making her eyes wide, 'You little…'
*BOOM*
The punch square hit her face, but Morgana was pushed towards Erix since he was at the back, so both of them were shot down.
But before crashing onto the ground, Erix blinked away and floated above Morgana.
"Sigh, I made a mistake again of not putting a round barrier," Morgana stood up and looked at Erix with her nose bleeding.
Erix laughed, his metal suit changing colors as it turned into a dark orange metal suit, exuding heat.
But suddenly, two flowers sprung pun by Erix's sides and sprayed him with that strange pollen, instantly freezing him into a purple ice popsicle.
"But you can't win against me in this domain, handsome," Morgana chuckled.
*Crack..*
The ice around him cracked and turned dark before breaking down.
"That…we'll have to wait to see," Erix's eyes glowed, his metal suit now finally completing the transformation as exquisite dark purple patterns appeared on the blazing red and orange suit with eccentric gauntlets and leg armor designed to boost his attack executions.
"Ara, that's good."
Morgana's grip tightened as a long ice staff appeared, boosting her control to another level in this domain. 'I'll need to have an edge in terms of counters.'
Erix's suit glowed with the patterns indicating the channeling of his energies.
*BOOM!*
He punched once, releasing a meter-big fist projectile before he disappeared from his spot.
All left for him was to go all out of his punches and execute Celestial Spiral Wave in a timely manner.
