Infinite Mana In The Oasis

p Bang!

As Keith clashed with Eren using his broadsword, Eren felt like a hammer had hit his sword. The next thing he felt was the damage caused by his lightning wave.

Eren's body was dragged back as the impact force acting on his body showed its effects. Instead of fighting against the vector force, he decided to use it to his advantage to create a distance between him and his opponent.

"What happened? Weren't you sure that you'd win? Why are you running away from me now?"

Keith asked as he saw Eren pulling away from him. He was a lightning-element ranker. And speed was his forte. So he immediately tried to cut the distance between him and Eren using his movement spell.

Swoosh!

Kieth launched his weapon attack toward Eren when he was only a few meters away from him. He also coated the fist of his free hand in lightning-element mana before executing his unique spell.

In the next moment, the lightning mana that coated Keith's clenched fist started changing shape. It turned into a lion head, which then opened its eyes and attacked Eren on its own from a different angle.

Keith uniquely used the summoning spell. Instead of conjuring the whole body of the lion, he had decided to be easy on his mana reserves and only conjure its head. He used it to enhance the effects and range of his Fist Arts.

'Hm?'

Keith felt something was off just a moment before both his attacks hit Eren. the flying slash released by the broadsword passed through Eren while the lion's head bit his shoulder.

However, Eren's image soon turned semi-transparent before dispersing. Keith looked around to see that Eren was approaching him from his Three O'clock position.

Eren had not used his movement spell to its fullest, giving Kieth the impression that he was slower than the berserker. He had created a window of opportunity for himself by catching Keith off guard.

Blitz Wave!

Eren released his weapon spell from his Tachi before storing it in his space. He returned his two axes at the same time before charging them with his fire element mana.

Blitz Whip!

Having been filled to the brim with fire-element mana, Eren let his two axes fly off on their own. He then cast his lightning element attack to guide them to their intended destination.

Keith opened his mouth in surprise when he saw Eren suddenly attacking him with such ferocity. He swung his broadsword and clashed with the Blitz Wave that Eren had sent first using his Tachi.

With his broadsword, Keith easily overpowered the flying slash coming at him. But in doing so, he was unable to put up a serious fight against the rapidly approaching axes from either side.

Keith made his Lion Fist collide with one of the axes by retracting it. But he could only raise his arm in defense to block the incoming ax from the other side. To protect himself from the lightning element, he strengthened his arm with a defense spell that he would soon cover his entire body with. Alas, the defense spell was cast too late.

Eren tugged at the ax that was about to attack Keith and made it swing around the defensive stance Keith had raised against it. The weapon spell on the ax made the blade turn orange-red just before it came into contact with Keith's back. In the next moment, a distinct mana pulse was released as Keith felt something strike his back.

"Aaargh!"

The ax had managed to breach the defenses set by Keith. The blade managed to penetrate about 2 inches into his back. The area around Keith's left shoulder suffered a severe injury all of a sudden.

The audience couldn't believe what was happening. Keith had been outmaneuvered by a debutant. What surprised them, even more, was the fact that Keith was only a step away from entering the Awakened rank. And yet, he was outplayed by someone in the 6th stage of the Meta rank.

"You bastard… hiding your weapons like this! I'll fucking kill you."

Keith was livid as he felt the pain and anger coursing through his body. He temporarily stopped the bleeding from his severe injury by strengthening his natural mana defense. He then gripped his sword and charged at the approaching Eren.

Alfem!

Eren had already cast his next spell when Keith was busy dealing with pain and foreign mana invasion. He had already retrieved his two axes using Blitz Whip.

Eren jumped up using his movement spell and guided the flock of firebirds down and towards his opponent. He then flipped midair and gripped his two axes before charging them once again.

Keith was already stunned by the way Eren was just assuming what moves he was about to take and taking preemptive actions. The berserker potion would soon be used against him.

Keith was fast despite his large physique. But that compared to other ordinary rankers who didn't have lightning-element mana working for them. Eren on the other hand seemed to have mastered his use of the lightning element movement spell, giving him exceptional agility.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Keith was about to retrieve his Berserker potion when he was hit by a bunch of firebirds in succession from all angles. It forced him to concentrate on defense once again, not allowing him to retaliate. This was something he was used to doing against his opponents.

Keith's troubles weren't over just yet. Just when he had thought that the barrage of firebirds clashing on him was over, he felt a threatening sensation from behind him. Something was approaching him at breakneck speed from a higher altitude.

Impact. Boom. Cleave.

Eren was getting used to using axes more and more in his battles. He was now tweaking the speed of axes midair with their charge and the preemptive tugs of his Blitz Whips, making them have an unpredictable orientation and momentum.

As a result, the two axes managed to inflict cleaving wounds on Keith's shoulders once again. Their unpredictable approach led to the latter failing to dodge the two attacks.
