| The Dark Knight savored the sensation of being weightless until his blade drifted downwards, its’ bladed edge sinking into the earthen arena top, further carving it up until he’d ground to a complete halt. Even as he was forced to retreat backwards, Dieter’s attention never waived from Genesis as the man was bombarded by the Dark Knight’s tri-pronged assault. Yes, Genesis’ own tactics had been used against him, purposefully making use of suspected blind spots as he’d conjured forth the bombardment of flames. Not to mention, he’d used the howling winds to damper the Banshee’s shrill cries. From his perspective, he’d managed to land each of his prospective blows, not to mention he was fairly certain the Banshee’s dreadful presence once more slowed his opposition.
So now was his time to strike. Dieter’s brow glistened with perspiration as he’d began to quickly recite the memorized incantations for both Firaga and Firaja , fully intent on keeping Genesis at a distance and just bombarding him into submission. It’d took but a handful of seconds before he’d finished his rushed murmuring, smirking to himself as innumerable glyphs appeared within the skies. Suddenly, star fire rained down upon the Crimson-clad SOLIDER, even if it didn’t hit directly, it’d still possessed the risk of bombarding him with shrapnel. In that same instance, the ground beneath Genesis’ feet which was still likely clad in flames glowered.
The next instance, a roaring torrent of amaranthine flames surged upwards, threatening to consume the man entirely once again. All the meanwhile, the Dark Knight kept his sword drawn protectively across his body, poised to dodge even as he’d invoked Murasame , conjuring forth glistening rain that spilled down upon his body, its’ curative magick working itself deep into his injuries and staunching off the persistent bleeds and easing his pain. Just surrender… your pride isn’t worth your life. , Dieter internalized, uncertain why some of them were so deadset upon pushing themselves as far as they had.
1. used Firaga 2. used Firaja 3. used Murasame
[hp=25/100]
Murasame: An art rumored to awaken spirits associated with vigor found in warriors on the battlefield. Its’ activation is signaled by a pulsation of orange, pink and yellow, followed shortly by a shower of healing rain. The rain is capableof treating up to three people, healing them for a minor injury. [ Duration: 1 Post. Cooldown: 3 Posts.]
Firaja: The peak of Fire-elemental magick reached by a handful of scholars, those capable of invoking its wraith are awarded titles such as Sage . When cast it is capable of dealing Massive damage to a singular target, unlike its' predecessors, it has an innate ability of Magick Pierce - enabling it to pierce through the status effect Reflect . These conjured flames are a rich violet, borderline black. [ Cooldown: 5 posts ]
Firaga: A pinnacle of Fire Magicked reached by few, frequently used by Black Mages belonging to a Royal’s Court. When cast it is capable of dealing Heavy damage to a singular target. These conjured flames are a rich violet and notably darker than its’ predecessor [ Cooldown: 3 Posts ]

Genesis frowned slightly. This match was starting to become a little troublesome. He wasn't all too sure how much longer he'd be able to keep fighting at this pace. He could feel his stamina running out and would need to take a step back and catch his breath if he wanted to keep going. What made matters worse was that the blonde swordsman seemed to go on a rampage, casting several spells and sending those weird ghost things out again in rapid succession. Grunting, the Crimson SOLDIER took a single step backwards and brought his left hand up over his head. A soft, pale-blue light shone from within his palm that expanded and washed over the SOLDIER First Class, giving him a soft, shimmering matching colour aura. This kid seemed to like his fire based spells. Let's see how effective they'd be now against his Magic Defence spell. That pale-blue glow continued to pulse over the auburn-haired man even after the first two spells smothered him. The first didn't seem to have any effect on the SOLDIER, burning only the blue shield with the second only appearing to cause subtle injuries, the shield again absorbing a majority of the fire's flames. Yet during the Fire and Fira spells, the Crimson SOLDIER simply stood his ground and took the chance to catch his breath, filling his lungs with several, slow and controlled intakes of air.
Full aware of what those ghost entities were capable of, Genesis flexed his knees and beat his wing, launching himself up high into the sky were he watched the banshees pass harmlessly beneath him. You're not hitting me with that again... Don't expect your cheap tricks to work on me twice... The Crimson SOLDIER thought to himself, watching safely as the ghost creatures slashed the thin air where he once stood. After they'd done their thing, Genesis twisted himself about and gave his wing another hard flap to rocket himself back down to the arena floor. Flipping forwards and landing on his feet in a crouched thud, the arena floor cracking under the pressure, Genesis stood back up straight and stood his ground again, watching the blonde swordsman ahead on him as he took slow and controlled breaths to replenish his stamina. Once again Genesis found himself being consumed by flames, both from above and below. With his Magic Defence doing it's best to damper the power of the spells, the Crimson SOLDIER just stood his ground and closed his eyes until he felt the heat of the flames die down. Fortunately, his protective spell helped him avoid behind set alight again, yet the burns on his arms and face were growing pretty bad at this point.
As the flames finally faded away, Genesis opened his eyes to show that same, fiery glow burning within them. He cracked a smirk and pulled his blade up and pointed the glowing tip towards the blonde swordsman, a soft chuckle escaping his lips. ”I must pay some small manner of respect... your control over the flames is most impressive...” He spoke up, starting to slowly walk towards the blonde swordsman. His battered and burnt body looking like it was being manipulated by invisible puppeteer stings. Yet after every wobbly step, Genesis' posture strengthened until he was carrying himself by himself again, still making his way towards his opponent with that smirk on his lips. ”... But if you think fire and ghosts are enough to stop me, then you are mistaken.” Picking up his left hand and holding it level with his Rapier, Genesis flicked his index finger and beckoned the blonde swordsman to come at him. Shifting his left hand to grip the lower segment of the Rapier's hilt, Genesis held the blade in both hands and readied himself. Anyone and everyone could tell that the auburn-haired man was in a world of pain, but that smirk on his lips and that fire in his eyes told a different story. No amount of burns or cuts to his flesh could come close to the pain he felt when he was degrading, when he was rejected by his Goddess.

The Daemon’s blood pressure spiked, his frustration evident as Genesis’ winged silhouette emerged from the within the pyre. How did he survive those flames? , the Dark Knight internalized, frustrated that this man wouldn’t surrender. How much more punishment can he endure? Sadly, Dieter could only speculate but he’d surmised that the man before him would sooner perish than admit defeat – those was the folly of humankind’s arrogance. When Genesis level his blade in his direction, the Dark Knight’s grip upon the hilt of his blade tightened as he made a minute adjustment and brought the blade closer to his torso. For once, he’d shifted entirely from the offensive to defensive measures.
“…”
Genesis was greeted by stoic silence as he’d began to encroach closer. His bodies’ dilapidated state evident in the way Genesis’ regal posture had faded into nothingness. It’d took him more than a few seconds to correct himself. Unfortunately, Dieter’s bag of tricks wasn’t quite empty yet, no, he had a few more aces that he could pull from his sleeves – although those were reserved for emergencies and weren’t situated for one on one combat.

Genesis blinked his eyes slowly, noticing that his opponent hadn't come at him, even with the beckoning of his finger. What was wrong with him? Had Genesis' words had an effect on the kid? Was he now questioning whether all his previous attacks had no effect? On the contrary. They sure did have an effect and the Crimson SOLDIER was certainly going to feel it in the morning, but besides being skilled with magic and with a blade, Genesis was also a master of mental warfare. Battles of the mind. If he could psyche an opponent out, they'd be easier to fight against. That was the theory anyway. Perhaps Genesis' sheer resilience, his determination... his stubbornness, was getting the better of the blonde swordsman? Who could say? Though seeing as his foe wasn't coming at him, the auburn-haired man took the opportunity to continue controlling his breathing, slowing his strained and gasped breaths to the point where he was breathing calmly though his nose.
Walking forwards throughout this, Genesis slowly closed the gap between himself and the kid opposite him. Not sure how much longer I can run on fumes... Heh, ironic... Genesis thought to himself as he tightened both his hands around the hilt of his Rapier. How should he play this? The kid had mostly been throwing around spells, but that wasn't to say he knew how to use that blade in physical combat. Hell, he'd already felt some of his blows. However, he remembered how ineffective his own fire spells were, so that still kept Flash and Shadow Flare out his arsenal. Let's try something different... The Crimson SOLDIER mused as he pulled his left hand off the handle of Rapier. Clenching his fingers as if he gripped an invisible sphere, several small crackles of energy arced from the Rapier to the SOLDIER's fingers, forming a sphere of pulsing blue energy in his left palm. Pulling his left arm back, Genesis threw his Energy spell towards the blonde swordsman which rocketed from his palm with tremendous speed. However, the spell wasn't aimed directly for the blonde swordsman. No, it was aimed at a spot on the ground just behind him which, when the Energy spell collided with the ground, it would explode violently in a large eruption that would hopefully propel the kid towards the SOLDIER First Class.
Anticipating his plan to work flawlessly, Genesis snaked in quickly behind his spell and swung his Rapier with both hands in a savage slash, aiming to slice the kid from the air with a powerful blow to his body, were everything to go according to plan.

| Why did I hesitate , The Dark Knight reluctantly asked himself, somehow, absolutely certain that if he’d permitted Genesis into goading him into striking haphazardly, all that awaited him was the bitter taste of defeat. No doubt, Genesis’ skill in psychological warfare would have been quite unnerving, if it weren’t for the fact his opposition had spent a vast majority of his life drifting from battlefield to battlefield – he’d fulfilled his intended purpose as a weapon. Still, Genesis’ commitment was applaudable, although, it’d failed to convince the Daemon. Why one might have asked? Dieter’s sharpened senses easily picked up on Genesis’ slowed, strained, gasping breaths amidst the crackling flames – each of them was simply biding their time.
Yes, both were cognizant of the simple fact, the victor of their bout could be determined in an instance. All it’d took was a singular slip up to spell certain defeat. When Genesis’ breathe had steadied, the Dark Knight’s eyes drifted softly shut as Genesis began to slowly but purposefully close narrow the divide that existed between them. Why hadn’t the Dark Knight brandished his blade, recklessly surged forward to meet Genesis’ encroach? The answer to any seasoned combatant was clear, the Dark Knight was using those few fleeting moments to recover – to clear his mind of unnecessary thoughts. Perhaps, the onlooker wouldn’t notice that Dieter’s verdant eyes had flittered shut for a brief instance, snapping open when he heard the sound of Genesis’ hand clench around the hilt of his rapier.
He’d caught a glimpse of how Genesis’ left hand parted from his blade, recalling how he’d favored that hand before when he’d prepared a spell. So, for the time being, the Dark Knight remained motionless as his leg muscles tightened, most of the subtle contracts concealed by the tattered, burnt remains of his robes. He’d shifted his weight forward onto the balls of his feet, ignoring the silent protests of his body as he’d watched the crackling energies arced from between the SOLIDER’s fingertips. He’d ignored his muscles protests as he’d waited for the energies to gather into a tangible, glowing sphere. He’d watched in stoic silence as the leather-clad man cocked his arm back. Now! , the Dark Knight commanded his body into motion. His tensed muscles propelling him forward in sync with the orb leaving Genesis’ hand. Dieter’s torso dipped downward as he’d surged forward, narrowly avoiding being clipped by the orb. He had actually felt a stray arc break off, tickling the side of his face. The realization immediately dawned on him, if he’d mistimed that by even a second, the results could have been catastrophic. While one had to admit, Dieter’s had while well-timed and perfectly executed, it wasn’t enough for him to escape the full-brunt of the concussive blast. Although, his timely reactions had spared him form harm, he was still being thrust forward towards Genesis – albeit in a semi-controlled manner. When he saw Genesis’ two-handed rapier strike inching closer. Dieter once more called upon the Darkness that laid dormant within him. As the distance between them closed in an instance, the Dark Knight’s blade arced outwards to meet Genesis’ blade. One could feel the oppressive aura that had now clung desperately to his blade. With Dieter’s first swing, he’d activated Infernal Strike , charging it to the max in order to generate While Dieter’s charge was well timed, it wasn’t enough for him to escape the full-brunt of the concussive blast. Although, his timely movements had spared him harm, he was still being thrust forward – albeit in a semi-controlled manner. When he saw Genesis’ two-handed rapier strike inching closer. Once more he’d called upon the Darkness that laid dormant within.

However, regardless if his blow managed to deflect the Rapier as intended, the Dark Knight’s muscles straining.
He ignored the pain in his shoulder as he’d controlled the arc of his blade, rolling the blade and rotating his wrist so that he could bring his blade harshly back across.

Sealed within are many secrets, many of which are unknown to Dieter. Although, he has discovered that it contains Belias’ research regarding the Dark Arts and Arcana. By decipher extensive formulas, Dieter has further trodden down a path he can’t disembark – furthering his ties to the Darkness. In doing so, Dieter has crippled his ability to channel divine energy [restriction of Paladin & Holy abilities]. In exchange, Dieter’s mastery of the Darkness has increased significantly [ with the exception of Unholy Sacrifice, In exchange for a boost in power, Dieter suffers an increased cooldown.] (1 – Light to Medium; 2- Medium to Heavy; 3 -Heavy to Massive – causes ability lockout for the remainder of a thread). Dieter understands that Darkness is more than it seems, its’ nature is negativity and as such has discovered how to weave more effective blights into his sword arts. [ 10% increase in status effects landing, roll 1D10 – status effects hit if 3 or number specified in ability are rolled.].

Seems like the blonde swordsman still had some fight left in him. Much to the audience's pleasure, who had been cheering and clapping and shouting for each of the warriors standing in the arena. This had been a difficult match, not that the Crimson SOLDIER would willingly admit it. All he could blame was himself for becoming so weak during his slumber under Midgar. He cold already hear the mocking taunts and jests from Angeal and Sephiroth were either of them to see him in such a state. Yet it didn't falter the auburn-haired man. Hearing those voices in his head only helped fuel his flame, aided in reigniting his fire to return to his glory days where Sephiroth, Angeal and himself stood at the very top of Shin-Ra. It appeared he still had some work to do though to return to said glory days. The blonde swordsman appeared to anticipate the SOLDIER's plan and dashed forth when the Energy spell was released. Seemed he -just- managed to escape the blast and thwart his plan. Never mind, more opportunities would arise yet he couldn't help wonder how many of those he had left.
As the blonde swordsman blocked his two-handed strike, Genesis widened his stance and flexed his knees, rooting himself to floor as he prepared to go into a hack and slash spree. Yet the force from the kid's block caused the Crimson SOLDIER's arms to recoil, his weight being shifted backwards. This kid had some strength, couldn't lie about that. Thankfully with his feet planted firmly on the arena floor, he had eliminated the risk of toppling backwards. Instead, Genesis used the backwards momentum of his arms being parried to flick his wrists and tuck his arms behind his back, where he passed the glowing Rapier from his right hand into his left, which was then snapped out and arced in a fast, wild swing straight back at the blonde swordsman. Sparks flew again as their blades clattered against each other, the auburn-haired man digging into replenished reserves of stamina to hold off the blonde swordsman's follow-up strike. Pushing his Rapier against the blade of his opponent in a deadlock, Genesis picked up his right foot and aimed a hard stomp down towards the kid's inner left knee.
Decided to ditch his idea of a close range hack and slash trade off, the auburn-haired man leapt backwards to open the gap between them both. Once his scorched leather boots found purchase on the arena floor, the SOLDIER's left hand was smothered in a bright white light, something the kid ought to have recognized from earlier in their match. That's right, Genesis was preparing another Apocalypse spell. Once more, the Crimson SOLDIER covered his Rapier in a bright white glow, which was held over his head before the white energy launched into the sky. Once more, those runes and glyphs appeared in the sky and once more, the intricate design brightened until it shifted hue from white, to red. Once more, countless bolts of energy rained down onto the arena, tracking and seeking out the blonde swordsman before exploding. Genesis could be heard letting out a strained yell as he poured his energy into keeping the spell active for as long as he could. Soon enough, a bright flash of light ended the spell, the Crimson SOLDIER collapsing down onto one knee, his Rapier stabbed into the ground and used as a crutch to keep himself from collapsing entirely. S-shit... That might... have been too much... Genesis thought, his legs feeling numb and shaking slightly. He tried to stand, but his legs weren't listening to him. They just wobbled harder and refused to hold his weight. S-stand up... Stand up damnit!!

| Dieter’s verdant eyes narrowed as his cumbersome blade collided with Genesis’ airy rapier. The Dark Knight’s excitement and bloodlust intensified as arcs of free-flowing sparks showered their immediate surroundings. Genesis’ style and his own were polar opposites, where one focused on grace and finesses, the other was borderline animalistic relying on sheer strength and overwhelming momentum. Much to his surprise, Genesis didn’t crumple beneath the staggering might of his first blow. No, this man had enough foresight to widen his stance, shifting his weight appropriately, and most importantly relaxing his body to further lessen the impact. Truthfully, if he hadn’t done so, there was a high-chance, his strike might had uprooted the Crimson-clad Swordsman and left him laid out flat.
Alas, Genesis’ strength wasn’t without its’ limits, this was made apparent as Genesis’ arms flew backwards. In response to that development, Dieter’s lips curved upwards into a playful smirk, albeit it was short lived. Why? Genesis’ elegant swordplay had reared its’ head as the auburn-haired swordsman seamlessly transitioned the blade from his right hand to the left. Once that was completed, Genesis flowed into his blade lock, managing to deny his second blow purchase upon his body – a wise decision on his part. For a minute or two, the duo remained locked in stalemate, neither side relenting as they’d bore down on one another. Dieter’s brow arched upwards as he felt Genesis’ weight shift, his blade inching forward a fraction of an inch. It wasn’t until he felt Genesis’ booted foot collide with the interior portion of his left knee. The Dark Knight’s entire body lurched forward, his teeth grounding against one another as he’d felt his knee buckling. Gensis’ clever use of anatomical mechanics had momentarily set him at a disadvantage. However, Dieter never quite fell as their blade lock was broken, Dieter’s blade sunk into the ground and stabilized him. When Dieter’s eyes settled upon Genesis, specifically, the blinding white light that had gathered in his left hand. He understood that, their battle was coming to an abrupt end – the next few seconds crucial in deciding the victor. Dieter’s lips moved rapidly as he began to mutter to himself, reciting the scriptures for both Kiyomori and Masamune. As if on cue, one could see that thick verdant miasma being willed into existence, its’ essence gathering in a tangible sphere before it’d shattered and bathed him in its’ protective magicks. However, before it’d even shattered, one could see that there was a glowing pentagram pulsating beneath his feet granting him both Haste and Regen . Now that he’d set the basis for his formulated plan. Now it was time to act. While Genesis’ bolts were still being fired into the sky. Dieter had abandoned his sword, leaving it planted in the ground as he’d leant forward. Mentally counting down before he’d propelled himself forward. Dieter’s increased speed made it easy for him to close the distance between them, especially given that Genesis had fallen to a knee.
Now let’s see if my gamble will pay off in dividends.
THe Dark Knight thought as he’d maneuvered himself around Genesis, circling like a shark prepared to devour its’ prey, each movement he was making was made in accordance to Genesis’ movements. [hp=30/100] 1. Used Kiyomori - Protect / Shell 2/2 2. Used Masamune - Haste & Regen 3/3 3. Is clinging towards Genesis in hopes of catching him wihtin his own magick strike, manuevering about to narrow avoid the explosions.
Masamune: An art rumored to awaken the spirits associated with fleeting winds of change. Its’ activation is prompted by his blade being placed into the ground, causing an orange pentagram to be momentarily visible. Those within the pentagram are blessed with a boon of haste and minor regen. [ These effects are limited to three, including the caste. Haste: 3 Round Duration. Regen: 3 Round Duration, heals a Moderate Injury in that time. Cooldown: 5 Posts. ]
Kiyomori: An art rumored to awaken the spirits associated with the unyielding presence of steel. Its’ activation is signaled by a verdant will-o-wisp emerging from the blade, it spirals around its’ caster and those within its’ vicinity before disappearing. Those blessed will find they are shielded against both magical and physical attacks. [ Protect & Shell : Dispelled after 2 Posts or after being hit by either a Moderate or two Light attacks of their corresponding defense. Cooldown: 4 Posts.]

Genesis wondered what happened to his Apocalypse spell. He was sure he cast it, he saw the runes and glyphs forming in the sky and watched as the bolts of energy fell, but nothing apparently happened. That was weird. Frowning, Genesis looked up when seeing the blonde swordsman ditch his sword and come running in towards him. His legs still weren't listening to him, but his wing was at least. With a soft beat of said wing, the Crimson SOLDIER picked himself up and carefully landed back on his feet, the Rapier being pulled from the ground as he did so and held before himself defensively. With a second stronger beat of his wing, the auburn-haired man propelled himself up into the air several feet where he held a hover and looked about to see what had become of his Apocalypse spell. That was weird... did he cancel it out, or did I imagine casting it because I'm exhausted? No... I could have sworn I cast it.... The SOLDIER First Class looked at his left hand and squeezed it into a fist, the scorched glove he worn creaking as it tightened about his digits.
The cheers of the crowds caused him to look down and watch some of them for a moment, observing as they jumped in their seats and appeared to be enjoying the match. The setting afternoon sun was smothering the sky in a gorgeous orange glow and the view of the area from up here really was one to behold. Yet this wasn't the time to go sight-seeing for he had a match to finish, but if this kid could just delete his spells like that, then what was he going to do next? The kid had abandoned his sword, but Genesis felt he was too high in the sky to reach it before the kid could return to it. I have no available spells to use on that brat... I wonder if his sword is as immune to flames as he himself is? Nah, that feels like a waste of energy... Hmm... The Crimson SOLDIER decided to maintain his hover and observe the brat from above. He could recover more stamina while up here and he'd see the brat return to his sword were he to need to hold it in order to cast spells. With a nod of his head, Genesis decided to keep hovering in the air and wait to see what the kid did next.

| Unfortunately, Genesis’ abrupt flight had foiled Dieter’s plans entirely, this was made further evident as the explosive blasts from Apocalypse riddled the ground. Fortunately, Dieter’s heightened perception and hastened state permitted him to dodge a handful of the blasts. Although, even with his hastened state, the Dark Knight wasn’t able to escape it entirely. This was where Kiyomori had come into play, its’ protective magics straining against Genesis’ powerful spell. The resulting force from the last explosion was enough to knock the Dark Knight to the ground, his body remained motionless for time being. What was he doing? Why hadn’t he gotten up? Dieter’s eyes fluttered shut as he’d remained motionless, electing to play dead for a handful of seconds. While his head remained face down, his lips moved in silent incantation, his sharpened senses helping him pin-point Genesis’ current location. It was only after he’d finished the incantations for Firaja, Firaga, Fira that he bothered to look up from the ground, his eyes locking onto Genesis. One could see that his eyes had grown unfocused, the negative effects of casting all those spells back to back made apparent. Still, his hand extended in Genesis’ direction as the ground beneath the man split open and a pyroclasm shot open, not only that a torrent of flames flew from Dieter’s outstretched hand, while bolts of fire rained down from the heavens as well. It wasn’t going to be easy to escape, but it was still feasible.
Dieter remained motionless though, unable to bring himself to move for the time being.

Genesis has failed to post within 24 hours. This is his second offense, and he is disqualified.
Dieter advances to the next round.
