“Ms. Park, this is what the big brian of mine is saying,” I said looking at the huge fire elemental dawned in black smoke armor and carrying a huge heavy sword showing off my new Gigamite battle genie transformation.

“Haha, Mr. Wyatt. You do know that the limits of an imitation and the original are far apart. No matter how good the imitation is, it can never be as good as the original.” Said Park referring to my battle genie form which was a copy of her transformation.

“Ms. Park, you could not be more right. Imitations can never be the same as originals but they can surpa.s.s the original and become the better version of the original.” Clearly, I thought my Gigamite battle genie form was better than Park’s demon swordsman battle genie form.

“Better version of the original, huh? Mr. Wyatt, I have heard that you were a genius but aren’t you too confident for someone who is playing with toys given by his Sugar mama.” To the world, Corey was a genius to achieve such high comprehension and control on rules at such a young age but only Park knew that it took years of hard work and sweat for her to achieve such a high level of comprehension and control on rules.

And now a boy wet behind his ears is saying that he has created a better version of her skill which she mastered and perfected through years of blood and sweat. There is no way in h.e.l.l Park would sit quietly after hearing something like that to her face. Forgetting her previous calm and collected self she lashed out.

“…” I did not want to argue about this. There was a lot of misunderstanding about how or whom I got my ego elementals from but this misunderstanding favored me so I chose to let it go. After all, I do not know how to answer to the world how I was able to forge broken runes into Ego Elementals without revealing my core secret, Calamity Soul Gem.

“Huh… I will end this quick and less painfully out of consideration for our friendship. ‘Redtail- Earth Crusher’ ” seeing me not argue with her, Park took it as her victory and aloofly claimed that she would win against me easily. While executing an attack at me.

As its name Earth Crusher when Park slashed her sword at me I felt a heavy pressure locking me and pressing me down to my location, limiting my movement. Even with my new enormous body, the effect of Park’s sword was more obvious and serious compared to Corey’s swordsmanship.

“Thunder Lance – Lightning bolt” In response to Parks Earth Crusher I choose one of the most devastating and fastest attacks to counter her. One lightning bolt was not able to stop the descent of Corey’s sword but thanks to the speed and acceleration of this attack I was able to fire another 5 Lightning bolts successfully blocking the sword.

I could feel the difference in Corey and Park’s swordsmanship. Corey, though she did not smell of a rookie and could not pa.s.s as a master unlike her, Park’s swordsmanship was decisive and domineering her swordsmanship could pa.s.s as a grandmaster.

If it was Corey who was executing Earth Crusher it would not take me 6 lightning bolts to stop its descent 1 or 2 at max would be enough. That’s the difference between a veteran and a rookie.

“Fire Beam” with her Sword being blocked, Park was not surprised. She used the momentum of her Sword being p.i.s.sed back to tilt her body and launch a beam of concentrated fire at me.

With a body of cloud rule, I should not be afraid of fire rules but Park’s fire was not an ordinary fire rule, it was a demonic fire rule. It was sinister and tenacious once it latches on it will not detach until the victim’s energy is completely burnt.

“Sun Eyeball – Holy Torch” Thankfully I had the holy attribute rule Sun which is known for its prowess against dark attribute rules. With my command, a beam of light shone from the Sun Eyeball like a torch. This beam of light quickly swallowed the incoming Fire beam. Purifying it into nothingness.

As I took care of the fire beam the heavy sword of Park’s Circled back with the same move as before but twice the power. This time the speed of the lightning bolt was not going to be enough, even before I can fire 12 lightning bolts the Earth Crusher will have landed on me and have claimed one of my heads.

Though right now my current huge body is made up of rules it does not mean I can fight recklessly and take damage head-on, it doesn’t work that way. The damage taken to the rule body will transfer to the original body which is currently acting as core to this new enormous body. Therefore I had to avoid taking damage as much as possible.

Knowing that my previous counter against the attack is not going to work again l this time instead of defending against Park’s sword I decided to go on the offensive in order for Park to withdraw her attack and switch to a defensive stance.

“Water Chakra – Whirlpool of Purification” I had no choice but to stick to the Water rule and Sun Rule as only their purification attributes can do alarming damage to Park in a short time.

The Water Chakra in my floating hand generated a whirlpool of water which headed towards Corey who was slashing her heavy sword at me.

“Flickering Flame” to my surprise just when I thought Park was going to give up her attack and dodge or defend against the incoming whirlpool she suddenly disappeared in front of me and magically appeared right next to me. With her sword slashing at my shoulder. Left with no choice I chose to take the attack head-on …
