Chapter 368 - The Ark Of Forbidden Dance

She vertically gripped her spear, while kneeling on the ground. Kris sensed something was amiss and sent a few Wind Elemental Spells her way. But Bryan negated them with ease.

"I'll gladly do so, Spearman!" yelled Bryan, braving against another Gale Howl.

"Here goes nothing..."

A ring of pink Elemental Aura appeared around her, with a purple outline. As she chanted, her Aura flared, creating a slight disturbance in the wind.

"Nature has taken its course. Blossom, O' poison children of mine. Bloom, O' bulbs of mine," said Rina.

Mavislin was impressed at the duo, they had just met and yet they've looked like they had been comrades for years. But the major thing was that 'Last Dance' Rina mentioned. She mentioned that it was 'forbidden for her to use it.

It can go two ways, either the Mage that taught her knew that she wasn't fully mȧturėd yet. And that spell won't take effect even if she risked her life. Or, the other way, was that no matter how powerful the wielder is, they must sacrifice something to power the spell.

It might be the same as 'Sacred Onslaught', which requires part of the wielder's sanity. It was near impossible for her to pull that off, judging by the fact her previous stages can only last a few seconds. Thus, Mavislin was hoping it was the second option.

"For these flowers are the symbol of my power. The emblem of my final Dance. I implore of Nature to fuel my spell to eliminate my foes..."

And another thing was Rina's age to the Last Dance. To use the Last Stage of any Spell, it would require the Mage to be at least a hundred years old. But Rina was only 30 plus. And to use all the Flower Dance Stages at such quick rates would mean she is at least half a century old.

The Valkyrie had faith in her recruit but she guessed that Rina was being fooled by someone else other than Kris.

"Power this spell with my Energy! Power it with the jealousy that looms and linger within us... For this is the Spell of Envy! These flowers will consume you!"

Meanwhile, Bryan fought against Kris, both verbally and physically.

"Both of you were fighting tooth and nail just a few hours ago... You've got something for her?" asked Kris, as he clashed with Bryan for the umpteenth time.

"No... But I've got something for you if you don't shut your mouth!" shouted Bryan, pushing Kris back.

"Not much of a social person, huh?" asked Kris, producing another howl.

He may have changed into a Mage but he could not create new spells. All of his attacks were all rehashes of the first few spells he showed. And Bryan had the stars as his spells, so it's a sure-fire win. But he just couldn't get that perfect shot.

Sending out Gemini and Libra, Stars of the Twins, and Balance, Bryan finally caught Kris off guard and the man lost balance. This created a chance for Bryan to kick Kris into mid-air. Once he does that, the Slayer could kick him to Rina, who was about to release her spell.

"I don't like socialize with scum like you!" yelled Bryan, kicking Kris' abdomen.

"Flower Dance! Forbidden Stage!" called out Rina, as her eyes flew open.

Her palms were starting to burn, her head felt heavy. Her eyes were now filled with blood as she was placing pressure on her sight. She was placing pressure everywhere to make this technique work. But her eyes were the most vital as she needed to drag the enemy into the spell.

Since the eyes of a being are not the window to the soul, it was the doors. But it was too much pressure on something so delicate. Everything looked like a blur at that point, Rina knew she needed to choose between two things. And she chose the conservative option.

"Catch!" shouted Bryan, delivering another kick right at Kris once more.

But the freak wasn't done yet as he grabbed Bryan's wrist dragging him along in the journey.

"Hyacinth Blasted Eyes!" called out Rina.

The circle around her was longer just a ring of light. It had millions of little bulbs and each of them was blooming the moment she shouted out the spell's name. She managed to look up to stab Kris right in the abdomen, dragging him into the climax of the spell.

Unfortunately, Bryan was being suċkėd into the spell as well, since that freak wouldn't let go.. The bulbs of flower bloomed in an instant and the area was drowned in a sea of Hyacinths, locking the three Mages in their world of peril and their past.
