With the gravity domain of Allada being mitigated by the earth elemental energy mage, the Gerret household warriors all felt a little confident in their next exchange. This time around, Kaban and Willard could tell that the warriors from the Minya side were all elites.
As the battle started, Allada instructed his warriors to go all out and eliminate the forces of the Gerret household. At the back of his mind, he knew quite well that the Gerret household had no hope of winning this fight, all they were doing was trying to buy some time. Right now, he was confident he could take out the warriors in front of him with just a small squad.
Allada charged directly towards Willard and Kaban. He reasoned that those were the two toughest opponents they had at the moment, so he wanted to quickly get rid of them. His speed reached his highest, as he dashed towards them. Kaban was slightly startled by Allada’s speed, but notwithstanding, he still moved forward to engage him. Kaban immediately pulled out his black war blade from the strap on his back, which was currently covered in a fiery red elemental essence and directly proceeded to strike the incoming Allada.
Seeing Kaban’s quick blade strike, Allada willed earth elemental energy to form a visibly light brown elemental energy guard around his left hand. Ignoring the fact that Kaban was attacking with a weapon, Allada met that attack with his bare hands. A loud explosive sound was heard when the both of them exchange their first attacks. A look of complete awe could be seen in Kaban’s eyes as he realized Allada was completely capable countering his attack with just his fist. ‘Impossible. Weren't we both Level 7 elemental energy warriors?’ Kaban couldn't help but ponder after that exchange. ‘Don't tell me he has broken through to the 8th level.’
The first exchange had completely stunned Kaban. In the past, they had both had friendly exchanges, so he had a good idea of how powerful Allada was in the past. But at the moment, he couldn't help but be surprised at the sudden difference in power. Now Kaban couldn't help but acknowledge Allada as the genius he was publicly acclaimed to be. Kaban had been a level 7 elemental energy warrior before Allada had broken through the level 7 stage of power, but to his surprise within eight years, Allada had already surpassed him.
A cold smirk appeared on Allada’s face as he proceeded to counter attack with his right hand covered in the same earth elemental energy. The look on Kaban’s face immediately changed, his pupils seemed to slowly change in color from its usual brown to a fiery red color. Right now, Kaban knew he was truly at a disadvantage, and he had to give this battle his all if he wanted to survive. Wielding the black war blade with both of his hands, Kaban immediately defended Allada’s attack. Sparkles flew in different directions as they both exchanged blows. This time around, Kaban used the counter force of that exchange to glide back a couple of feet away from Allada.
“You already broke through to the 8th level,” Kaban said looking at Allada. “No wonder you seem so confident.” He continued.
“That's right. From that exchange, you should know what the outcome of this battle will be.” Allada responded.
“Don't look down on just because you have broken through to the 8th level.”
Willard who stood to a corner, just watched as they both fought. Kaban immediately pointed his war blade straight at Allada with his right hand. He bent both his knees slightly increasing the stability of his center of gravity. Suddenly a little flame seemed to sprout at the tip of his war blade. The seemingly insignificant flame, slowly grew in intensity until it covered the entire blade in flames. Kaban immediately charged straight for Allada, who seemed to not care for anything in the world.
Allada folded his fist again and covered it with the earth element energy like he had previously done. Kaban, who seemed like a divinity of fire, swung his war blade aiming for Allada’s head. As he swung his war blade, the air seemed to instantly heat up. Allada met that attack with his fist again, but this time, as Kaban’s war blade met Allada’s fist, Kaban yelled; “explode”. The confident look on Allada seemed to immediately disappear as he noticed the way surrounding air around his fist was exponentially increasing in temperature. Allada knew there was no way he could quickly move his fist away from that attack, so all he could do was unleash his overwhelming base of the 8th level of elemental energy to try and block the attack. As their attacks collided, a huge explosion was immediately heard.

Willard who stood to a corner raised an eyebrow in delight to what he had just seen. ‘Interesting! He his barely touching on the doors of the primary law of explosion.’
Allada was forced to take about five steps from that exchange. He stared at his right hand, which was currently bleeding and moved his gaze back to Kaban. Allada was greatly surprised with the result of that bout, but without a moment to waste, he immediately brought out his longsword from its sheath. He no longer looked down on Kaban, as he realized how dangerous Kaban could be if he gave him the opportunity.
The both of them continued fighting each other, as Allada sought to quickly kill Kaban. Every couple of seconds, a loud explosion could be heard, with blood splashing all around. Allada currently had the advantage as his overwhelming level of elemental energy compensated for his lower accomplishment with regards to the elemental laws of nature. Currently, Kaban was like a mad dog as he swung his war blade with every energy he could muster, each collision had the natural element of explosion added to it. Allada on the other hand, filled his long sword with earth elemental energy, although he wasn't at a very high level with regards to the elemental laws, his elemental base was significantly higher than that of Kaban. The force from Allada’s sword, sent Kaban tumbling all the way until he hit a nearby building. Kaban coughed out a mouth full of blood after the impact. Not giving up, he forced himself to get back up and continue fighting.
Allada ran towards the already wounded Kaban, he swung his sword again aiming for Kaban’s neck. As Kaban blocked the attack again he was sent flying to another direction. Allada continued his pursuit as he could already see victory in his hands. As he got right in front of Kaban, who was currently sluggishly trying to force himself up, he immediately thrust his sword in a stabbing manner at Allada. Before his sword could complete its motion, he felt an overwhelming surge of pain at his back. The pain did not die down anytime soon and only increased with every second. Allada stared at the hand that was protruding out his abdomen and coughed out a mouth full of blood.
Allada's sword that was on a path to stab straight for Kaban lifelessly flew out of his hands. Allada turned to see the person that had stabbed him. “You!” Allada said as he coughed another mouth full of blood. “Were you expecting me to wait until you were done?” Willard asked with a smirk on his face.
Allada couldn't help but feel regret as the life slowly left his body. He was currently staring at the kid, who he had once held the fate of in his own two hands. Right now it was over, there was no one he could blame but himself. Kaban had forced him to go all out, ignoring his surroundings, and now he had paid the ultimate price for that. ‘If only I had killed you sooner.’ Allada thought to himself as he slumped lifelessly to the ground.
