A Demon's Journey

The fight began with Tiana conjuring up Icicles and throwing them at Christina.

Christina deflected a few of them by covering her arms with Flames and dodged the rest. She then rushed towards Tiana with her top speed.

Tiana knew that Christina was probably looking for a close combat battle. However, she wasn't proficient in that kind of battle and was looking for mid-ranged combat.

"Ice Floor!" She released strong Ice Ardor from her feet and covered the floor with her Ice Element.

The Ice she released was dense enough that it could survive a couple of Christina's attacks.

Christina wasn't aware of this fact. She launched a couple of fireballs while she moved towards Tiana, expecting that they would deal with this Icy Floor.

A couple of small explosions occurred over that Icy Floor. However, the Icy Floor was only slightly damaged.

Tiana reinforced the damaged areas of the Icy Floor and focused on her opponent again.

She opened her mouth and whispered, "Icy Wind." A huge gust of wind possessing faint Icy particles was launched at Christina.

Christina got the same feeling from this Icy Wind as that Icy Floor. She knew it would be troublesome to deal with this thing.

However, if she retreated now, she would be following Tiana's momentum. She knew that Tiana was probably ready to launch another attack at her as soon as she tried to retreat.

Christina decided to remain in her position and build up a lot of Ardor.

She then released all that Ardor by using a single attack, "Golden Annihilation!"

Golden Flames were spouted out of her arms as these flames struck that Icy Wind. Her dense Golden Flames managed to fight equally against Tiana's Icy Wind attack.

Tiana had a serious look on her face as she witnessed that attack. She had been waiting for it!

"She can't move now," Tiana whispered with a smile on her face.

She raised her arms, and suddenly some bits of Ice immediately rose in the air. And they rose so high above that Christina couldn't even see them.

If these bits were counted, they would appear to be thousands of crumbs of Ice. In fact, their shape was rather similar to a needle, so they could be considered sharp ice needles.

"Fall!"

Those needles fell down on the earth by becoming High-Speed Projectiles. They could hit the ground before the blink of an eye.

Meaning, Christina only had a few milliseconds of time to decide how she should deal with these needles.

She was caught in a dilemma.

If she stopped using her Golden Annihilation, the Icy Wind would strike her. But if she didn't move, these icy needles would strike her.

Both were equally dangerous attacks. If either of them struck her, she would be fatally injured and lose this battle.

While she was thinking of a way to deal with these two attacks, she heard a voice in her head speak 'Looks like you need my assistance, after all.'

Suddenly, an empty look appeared in Christina's eyes as she stopped utilizing her Golden Annihilation attack.

The Icy Wind and those Icy Needles moved towards her body at a quick pace. But these attacks couldn't touch her body.

Christina's body was illuminating with Golden Flames that were released in all directions around her body.

A sphere of pure golden flames was created around her body. Even the ground beneath her feet was destroyed, and Christina floated in mid-air with an empty look in her eyes.

Tiana looked at Christina with a shocked expression as she saw her attacks strike that Golden Flame Sphere around Christina and disperse.

After Tiana's attacks had ended, Christina immediately moved towards Tiana with a quick speed.

Tiana could swear that she had heard a screech when Christina moved. It was a sharp screech that made her back away.

She created multiple Ice Walls to prevent Christina from getting in close range. However, Christina pierced all those Ice Walls and was next to Tiana within a split second.

Tiana was ready for Christina and attacked her as her palm was congealed with Icy Ardor.

This was the special skill of her physique. She could easily congeal a large quantity of Icy Ardor over any part of her body.

However, she was shocked when her palm pierced Christina's gut.

Even though her arm pierced her gut and Tiana was freezing Christina's insides, it didn't seem to work.

In fact, when she raised her head to look into Christina's eyes, she noticed it hadn't affected her at all.

Christina raised her arm and immediately struck Tiana's head. Then Christina continued with a kick to Tiana's face.

The veil covering Tiana's face was torn apart, and she was thrown away.

When Tiana opened her eyes, she noticed Christina's gut wound being seared by Golden Flames.

"…How did she get so strong? What is this overpowering aura being released from her body?" She struggled to get up while staring at Christina.

Christina raised her finger and pointed it at Tiana, "Solar Finger."

A single finger was used because all her Flame Energy was condensed in that single point and then released. Thus, a densely pressured beam of the pure flame element was released from her finger.

Tiana struck the ground with both her palms and whispered out, "Ice Flower - Rose!"

An Icy Rose was conjured up just ahead of Tiana's body. It was extremely large in size and could easily cover Tiana's body.

When the Solar Finger attack struck the Icy Rose, it was deflected in all directions except Tiana's direction.

After some seconds, Tiana noticed that the Icy Rose was cracking up. Another couple of seconds, and her Icy Rose would be pierced.

She could use these few moments to conjure up more defensive techniques or… She could use these moments to launch an attack on Christina.

Without any hesitation, Tiana chose the latter.

"Icy Spears!" She pointed in Christina's direction.

Those Icy Spears were much stronger than an individual icy needle. Tiana knew that at the least, this attack would pierce Christina's body and prevent her from continuing on with this Solar Finger attack.

However, she had largely underestimated Christina.

She raised her other hand and then released multiple Solar Fingers. These were weaker than the one that struck the Icy Rose, but it was strong enough to deflect those Icy Spears.

When Tiana noticed that her attacks had been deflected, she lost all hope. She was thinking of jumping to the side and dodge this Solar Finger attack, but at that moment, the Icy Rose was pierced.

She closed her eyes and waited for that attack to strike her.

However, the attack never struck her. Instead, an explosion occurred just ahead of her.

When Tiana opened her eyes, she noticed that her Mystical Spiritual Connection Ring was glowing with a purple light.

"…What's going on?" She whispered in the hopes of receiving a reply.

And sure enough, her hopes didn't betray her. She heard Azaroth's voice, "It seems that you are battling against a possessed warrior. Let me take over from here on out."

Those words somehow relieved and excited Tiana. She knew that nothing could go wrong now that Azaroth had joined in this battle.

However, she didn't completely understand what he meant by the "possessed warrior." Did that mean Christina was possessed by someone? But by whom?

Meanwhile, the blank expression on Christina's face had turned into a frown as she sensed a very dangerous aura.
