Fierce Battle II
Cold

Cold
'It's so cold!' Titus screamed in his mind.
The descent of the whiteness was brought by a skill Lenax used, and it was a Blizzard-type attack.
But it was far more harrowing than any Blizzard one could find.
Even with his territory active, Titus could feel the heat in his body getting sapped at an alarming speed. And it wouldn't be long before he was utterly frozen both inside and out.
He had a few seconds at most.
'But what can I do?' Despite the terrible situation, Titus didn't panic. Instead, he became calm, very, very calm.
His mind instantly got to work.
In truth, he had a way to stave off the damage. The problem was that that method wouldn't last forever, and even if he was able to save himself, he wasn't sure if the others could do the same. And he held no illusions of being able to defeat Lenax by himself.
And so he cleared his panic and fear and entered a state of battle clarity. He drowned everything out. His worry for his allies and the future.
And then he moved.
The first thing he did was activate the second ability of Veylthar that he had access to.
'Mana Cancel.' He thought.
Immediately, the area around him was cleared. It was too fast to catch, but if one had been quick enough, they'd have sensed that the Mana around Titus suddenly surged into his sword at a staggering rate. And there was no discrimination between where the Mana was gotten from.
As such, a vast majority of the absorbed Mana was taken in from the Blizzard around Titus, which stopped the biting Cold from harming him any further.
Still, he wasn't done.
The skill Mana Cancel could do two things. It could either completely cancel the surrounding Mana for a period of time, or it could absorb it into the sword itself and enhance it.
The problem with the second one, however, was that it was very hard to control, and if Titus wasn't careful, the energy could explode outwards and harm him and those close to him.
Moreover, this was Mana belonging to Lenax of all people. It was a clone, but its density was still in another realm.
Usually, Titus wouldn't even consider trying to absorb the Mana into his sword. But right now, that was the only viable option that he saw. And he wasted no time in taking in.
The moment the Mana got absorbed into his Sword, Titus felt his hands shake as the overwhelming energy threatened to erupt. However, he didn't panic or falter.
It was incredibly fast, and the chains were truly numerous, as such, Lenax was able to avoid being caught by them.
However, even then, he could still move and use his magic.
But that was fine. They just needed to slow him down.
They had spent a lot of effort into creating this binding, and now was their chance to make the opportunity count.
Without another word, Titus and Felicia dashed forward with blinding speed.
Lenax roared andcountkess spikes erupted from the ground, but with Felicia's ability, the two of them were able to avoid getting impaled.
Still, the closer they got, the harder it became to avoid the attacks as Lemax wasn't pulling his punches one bit.
Ice lances rained from the air, and the ground would explode into shards of ice, chains of ice would materialise and try to bind them, and so on.
Titus gripped Velthar tightly as he continued to follow his sister's movements, her eyes processing information at impossible speeds. And with the added bonus of Aisha's magic, they were making some headway.
But even then, they weren't moving fast enough.
And so the others joined in.
A swarm of ice chains erupted from the ground around the duo and tried to close in on them like a net, but there was a flash of blue followed by the rumbling of thunder and then all the chains were suddenly sliced apart.
Raya could be seen brandishing her katana as she turned to intercept another round of attacks.
'Don't bother dodging and just keep running forward!' Curtis yelled through the telepathic Titus, and Felicia did just that.
They gave up on dodging and just sprinted straight for Lenax, who roared and increased the rate at which he attacked them.
But Curtis words rang true as everyone in the group poured all their energy into defending the duo no matter what.
Lenax roared and prepared to use its Dragon's breath once more, but then Curtis appeared above it's head and Nova whipped forward and wrapped around its mouth. Then Han came next to him and grabbed onto the chain as well, and the two brothers pulled with all their might.
Which didn't amount to much and only kept the mouth closed for about a second before they were thrown off. Still, that gave Tristan enough time to summon a literal glacier on top of Lenax's head, and that was enough to cancel the breath attack.
The Dragon roared and unleashed countless blades of frigid wind to cut apart the duo, but the Wolf Demihuman and the dragons stepped up and used their bodies to endure the onslaught, enduring heavy damage in the process, but allowing Titus and Felicia to finally close the distance.
The Dragon's nostrils flared, and it raised its claws to engage in close combat. And that's when the last part of the plan was implemented.
Felicia suddenly moved a step ahead of Titus, and in the far back, even behind Felicia, the female Centaur who hadn't appeared in the battle this whole time suddenly stood straight.
If there was one thing that looked similar at the moment between them, it would be that their eyes were glowing.
"Blissful Ignorance."
"Petrificatiom Stare."
Two powerful moves were activated at once.
