Ryder: Another magic type for you? Impressive. But you will always be weak, when compared to me. Justin: Most likely I won’t be on your level, but I will be strong. Just you wait, unlike this dumb ass on the ground! I’ll let my performances speak for themselves, just watch and you will see. Ryder: Alright. Justin: Better yet, I’ll bet on myself. I will become an all-star this year. Ryder: I see it in your eyes. You’re motivated. I like that.

Peyton: Ry, can you kill Zea? Zea: Can you just stop already?! Ryder: Umm…Peyton… I know, I’m arrogant and all. You’ve seen my capabilities. But not even the great Ryder himself can take her on! Peyton: So you can’t think of nothing? You’re a great tactician. Ryder: I am. If I can’t fight my mother for more than thirty seconds when she tries, what do you think my odds are with Zea, hmm?!

Peyton: You always find a way. Zea: She sent Ayato after me, it didn’t end well for him. Zea laughs, and Ryder backs away at a steady pace. Ryder: I’m not there yet. You want me to destroy my mind trying to find a way to beat Zea. Even my mother said don’t fight her. And Peyton, it's kinda awkward…you know? Like she did what she did but…

Peyton: What are you saying?! Ryder: I personally don’t want to kill her because it would be… Peyton: She killed Jerome, your friend and my fiancé, my family, just because it's a little bit awkward. Zea: Ryder, she’s a broken record, that won't hush. Go ahead and carry on about your day. Ryder: I don’t want to hurt my niece by killing her own mother. Sora: And I wouldn’t let that happen. Ryder: See! You expect me to kill my own brother and hurt my niece. Peyton: If you were in my position…

Ryder: Then you know! I wouldn’t ask for no back up, I’ll fight until my soul leaves my body. What’s stopping you? Zea is only going to get stronger and stronger the more time passes. Peyton: Yeah, what’s stopping you? Ryder: And you misunderstood me, Peyton. I’m willing to die for my vengeance.

Peyton: Valencia, what should I do? Valencia: I can’t tell you what to do. It’s your life. Peyton: Justin what should I do?! Justin: This is outside my pay grade. Peyton: Oh, come on! Zea: Are you going to fight or what? Peyton: Are you going to stop terrorizing the common folk?! Zea: Have you ever, truly just asked the people in my territories, how they feel about me? Peyton: What is there to ask, you literally destroy nations! Are you going to forget about Germany! Nigeria! And your latest one, India! Zea: You’re dodging the question at hand.

Peyton: You have the cartels and the mafia, running about freely, conducting their crimes. Zea: If you think that, then you can continue to participate in your delusions, but you can ask all of the locals, they’ve been model citizens under my management. They know what happens if they act up. Peyton: Yeah, right! They are probably acting a fool right now as we speak! Zea: Are you going to fight or what? If not then get to stepping.

Peyton summoned both of her pistols, and reloaded while shooting a loathsome glare at Zea, Justin quickly drew his five-seven USG pistol and aimed it at Peyton and suddenly black icy blue mana aura transformed into a Glock thirty-four, Justin looked incredulous when he saw his gun. Justin infused it with fire magic; the fire magic infusion clashed with the ice aura and created this glacier surrounded with molten lava, camo on the gun

Justin: This ice magic lost its damn mind! But Peyton, I can’t allow you to do this. Peyton: You dare draw your weapon upon me?! You’re literally defending this vile criminal! Justin: We’re missing one teammate. And we just got you on this team. I want to see how this team can grow. You’re an important member, you’re going to have to carry a larger workload compared to my peers around my skill level. We can’t lose you. We won an important game yesterday, we’re getting respected.

Peyton: Put your gun down or you will get hurt. Justin: If it means keeping you alive then I’ll have to take that risk. You’re a part of this team now. Peyton: Stand down. You will get seriously hurt messing with me, kid. Justin: All I gotta say is. Fuck around and find out!

Ryder: Oh, shit! This nigga forreal! Let’s give them some space y'all. Because I want to see this. Most of us except Peyton and Justin went on the torn up cabin, and sat at the porch and watched Peyton and Justin face. Brok carried Deshon on his back then threw him to the others by the door. But luckily Valdis saw Deshon in the air and caught him as he was crashing down.

Artoria: Was that necessary? Brok: What?! I took out the trash?! Zea laughed, and something came out of my grimoire, and Zea took hold of it. And she was submerged in black aura, after a few seconds and Zea’s attire changed…well, lack of attire is a better way to put it. Her attire is a long sleeve black shirt that has three crowns at the center, black jeans and with black and white low top sneakers.

Artoria: Thank you for covering yourself. Zea: I was honestly waiting on Sora’s French clone, he just made this. Ryder: The fuck? You have a domain in your grimoire?! Sora: Yeah. Ryder: One day, you have to share me the notes because not even I could do that. Sora: It’s time consuming, but if you…if you…..if…sorry I feel so tired. Zea: That adrenaline that was pumping finally wore off. Don’t try to fight it, you can go to sleep. Sora: It’s that so. All I was trying to say Ry was, you have to have plenty of patience as well. Ryder: Don’t strain yourself. Brok: Look! This is about to be entertaining.

Justin drew his long lost Damascus katana and wielded his Glock thirty-four with extended mag. Peyton rushed him with her pistols, and started shooting Justin with water aura bullets. Justin deflected quite a few bullets but two ended up hitting his left shoulder, but Justin remained focused on Peyton.

Justin: Combo Gun-Blade Magic: Flash step! Justin surrounded his legs with lightning magic, and Justin coated the blade with black ice and fire magic. Justin instantly gets to Peyton and does an upward slash around Peyton’s midsection. Justin's slash was blocked by Peyton’s pistols, and she countered by shooting Justin’s left thigh. And blood launched out of the air. Justin tries to back up by a lot, but Peyton empties her clip into his chest, but Justin was able to successfully block it with his blade. Peyton smacks her teeth and reloads.

Justin, rushes back in and unloads his entire mag in less than two seconds at Peyton. But the bullets never reached her, all of her bullets were caught in a petite stream of water in mid-air, that’s directly right in front of Peyton. Peyton: If you think having fire rate over me would score you a win… Justin: Well you have a piece of shit known as a Beretta. Justin reloads and both of them are firing and dodging each other. But Justin’s bullets keep getting caught in Peyton’s petite stream of water. Peyton produces a clone of herself and both of them start charging Justin. He quickly backs up for distance.

Ryder: Hmph…so persistent. Sora: It’s the only thing he can do for right now. Ryder: You don’t think he can win, do you? Sora: Well… Valencia: Don’t count him out just yet. Zea: He’s being bold. Will he be rewarded for it? Artoria: We shall see. Brok: The skinny cunt knows how to take beating. Valencia: If he can stay up, I strongly believe that something will happen.

Show us what you got Justin, I think this fight will determine what kind of mage you will be. After hearing all of our advice, what will you do with it? Nothing or barely anything. I trust a person’s actions, not their words. I had to learn that hard way with the royal guard.

Peyton and the clone get the extra step on Justin. Peyton: Water Magic: Trifecta! Another clone of Peyton spawns right behind Justin, and the third Peyton clone shoots Justin in the back three times. Then the two Peyton’s in front shot Justin’s feet, Justin grunts in pain and almost drops to his knees, but he enhances his speed with lightning magic and gets past both Peytons’. Justin takes a knee, and he starts removing the bullets from his tactical jacket. Justin: Well that’s money well spent!

Peyton: Just give up! Justin: I can still fight! Peyton: Then so be it! Water Magic: Sibi! Twelve Peyton water clones surrounded Justin with all of them holding shotguns. Justin: Combo Blade Magic: Omega Windbreaker Lightning god Dragon Flash Step! As soon as Justin stabbed his katana in the snow, all twelve clones shot Justin at chest level, and he got laid flat out, his tactical jacket torn to shreds. Blood pouring out of his chest, his breathing seems irregular, I think he’s done.

Brok: He’s done. Artoria: He lasted longer than I expected, still kinda short. Ryder: As expected from a CLMC member. Well, former CLMC. Ryder just laughs and he gets up, and pats Valencia and me on the shoulder and instantly gets to the exit and leaves. Brok: He got some speed on him. Artoria: It’s something. Peyton water clones moved point blank to him and aimed the shotguns. Peyton and her clones made their way to Justin and the three of them stared him down. Brok: Is she going to finish? Artoria: Well, I didn’t know we were speaking to a dead man. Sora: He’s done. Valencia: Well I would be wrong if I did this. Justin’s forearm began flashing icy blue mana. Brok: Do what exactly?

Valencia: As the eventual queen, I deemed my actions justified. He can have it and wield it, so long as he doesn’t stray away from himself. May this Incursion happen, as I demand. Cyan icy aura submerged Justin and Peyton’s water clones tried to shoot but they were frozen in place. Bright white aura shot up from Justin, Peyton tries to shoot Justin but her gun was turned into ice then shattered along with the ice clones and their guns.

The aura dissipated and Justin is standing in full body icy white steel armor, with a wolf shaped helmet and with a black visor and you can see ghostly yellow eyes behind the visor. Peyton begins shooting at Justin but her bullets were bouncing off. Zea: Didn’t see that one coming. Brok: I’ve seen that armor before. It’s been a long time. I made the blueprints for that! It’s a little outdated for my standards but it’s one of my finest works I did for the ice family, I was freelancing at the time before I committed to a job for them for a short period. I probably could’ve done better as well if I had more booze. Sora: Wow. Was this your doing Vivi? Valencia: Simply yes. Why not? The armor hasn’t been used for a century or something like that. Why not let him use it? As long as he stays true to himself, he can use it.

Peyton brings out a sniper rifle, and shoots Justin, but maliciously Justin caught the water aura bullet and flicked it back at Peyton, but the petite water stream caught it. Peyton: Water Magic: Ultra shot! Peyton summoned a rocket launcher into her hands then a dozen water clones spawned in with rocket launchers but they’re a bit further back this time around. Justin simply made a horizontal line in the air and the petite water stream was frozen and shattered, and Peyton yelled fire and every clone shot rockets at Justin. Justin froze them in mid-air and the rockets came down, Peyton fired her rocket launcher then switched to a carbine rifle and started going full-auto, but Justin sank down into the snow, and Peyton began jumping back a bunch, Peyton turns around and sees Justin’s armor covered hand, and she reloaded her gun and went full-auto. Justin sprained up from the snow behind her and blasted her with ice magic directly at her back. Peyton falls face first into the snow then she quickly turns around Justin quickly got to her, and tossed her up and kicked her by the others. Peyton got up and she was furious.

Peyton: Alright that’s it! B-class mage! You’re done! Trayga Magic: Ultima…Ryder out of nowhere got right in front of Peyton, and he said something to her and they began walking out. Ryder: Justin, this match will be postponed! Consider this a favor from me. Because the magic she was about to use was going to wipe you off the damn map. I don’t want that katana of yours, to be destroyed. And I do want to see that armor of yours when our two teams play. I’m going to tear it apart! Later B-class! Justin’s armor disappeared and he fell on the ground and Justin started laughing as he was getting up. Justin: Yeah! Justin fell back down.

Zea: Did not expect that. Brok: Entertainment. Artoria: Interesting. Sora: It’s cute, I’ll still destroy it, with one spell. Zea: Yeah you will. Brok: I want to see what that cunt can do! Justin: Oh, yeah! That’s what I am talking about! That was power right there!
