The Golem Mage

Behind Alec, the image of a flickering bestial figure shimmered into view, seemingly wreathed in flames, making it difficult for anyone to fully discern what kind of beast stood behind him.

A thin layer of flaming aura also covered Alec’s body.

Seeing Alec take things this seriously, Takeda also slipped into a battle stance, as he bent slightly low and swung his katana through the air in a swift motion before bringing it down toward his left waist, positioning it there as if preparing for a quick draw, behind his back too was a shadowy figure flickering there.

At this point, the two mages were not the only ones waiting, all the spectators were just as eager to see how it would unfold, their eyes fixed on the two men who would ultimately decide how this competition ended.

Around Alec and Takeda, small pebbles began to rise into the air due to the gravity distortion that was being developed from having two earth elemental mages together like that with a lot of tension, and as if they had both of them had come to the same silent agreement, they both dashed toward each other at exactly the same time.

Both mages swung their weapons horizontally. Takeda’s blade carried a flaming glow, and it was clear he could have used any element he wanted, but he seemed intent on mirroring Alec, whose blood blade was also cloaked in a flaming aura, almost like he wanted to show who was better .

But the moment they crossed, Takeda realized he had gained no advantage at all, and from the corner of his eye, as their weapons clashed, he saw something else, Alec was already letting go of his own weapon.
