"[Explosion Arrow Scattershot]! Hahahaha, now, this is more like it! Boom! Boom! BOOM!!!" Exclaimed Ciel gleefully, as she fired off a barrage of red energy arrows at me, blasting the arena apart as she let loose.

I'm starting to get her now, the more explosions she fires off, the more her adrenaline starts pumping and amping her up. And the more hyped she gets, the more intense her Spells become.

She's got a tremendous amount of Mana too, she isn't going to run out anytime soon. I tried closing the gap and forcing the fight into close-combat, but it seemed like she caught on.

With how easily Desecrator cut through her blade, she probably realized that blocking my blade is next to impossible, so she's keeping me at bay with her explosions, preventing me from getting closer.

Damn it, this is getting annoying, and her gleeful laughs while I'm scrambling around to evade her attacks are pissing me off, I-...hm?

Well, now...Rage Meter just hit one percent, it's been a while since it's appeared.

"That's it, keep running, keep dodging! KEEP DODGING SO I CAN KEEP EXPLODING STUFF!!!"

Yeah, that's it...keep annoying me, keep getting on my nerves.

As she fired our another explosion, shards of the floor flew out, one of the shards shooting towards me.

I quickly tilted my head across, the shard grazing the left side of my forehead, drawing out a trickle of blood.

My eyes widened in alarm as she immediately fired an explosive spear straight towards me, before I quickly manifested Drain and swallowed it up.

She clicked her tongue in irritation as I consumed her explosion, which only ticked me off even more.

Two percent...

I shot towards her while expanding the jaws of Drain in front of myself, as she fired out a fierce barrage of explosions at me.

I swallowed up several of them, the rest peppering the arena and erupting with devastating blasts, clouds of dust rising up all around the place.

"Damn it, STOP THAT!!!" She snapped as I swallowed up another explosion, before leaping towards her as I closed in, whipping my blade across at her.

She quickly tilted her head across, the tip of my blade grazing her right cheek before I spun around as I slipped past her and slashed at her back.

She turned as fast as she could and arched her torso back, a shallow cut appearing across the middle of her stomach as I grazed her again, before swiftly chanting to manifest Devour, combining it with Drain to form Ravage.

She ducked in alarm as I snapped the jaws at her head, severing a few strands of hair, before she sprang back as I lunged at her and swung my blade across, narrowly missing the tip of her nose.

I chased after her, intent on keeping her from getting distance, before I leapt up and swung my right leg towards the left side of her head.

She raised her arm up defensively, my leg slamming against her forearm, before I slashed at her arm as she began to try and grab my leg.

She quickly pulled her arm back and began to back away as I lowered my leg, before I sprang at her and slammed my forehead against the lower half of her face, before I got low and zipped towards her legs as she stumbled back with blood streaming out of her nostrils, unfurling a rapid slash at her knees.

I only managed to graze her as she swiftly shuffled back, trickles of blood running down her legs as I inflicted a couple of small cuts across her knees, before she suddenly lunged forward and grabbed my hair, lifting me up with her right hand and drawing her left fist back.

As she drove it forward, I swung my blade across at her neck while simultaneously expanding Ravage over the top of her head, before I began to snap the jaws shut.

She quickly swung her head down, the jaws biting off her ponytail as she trapped my blade between her chin and collarbone, the edge of the blade nicking her neck right as her fist slammed onto my stomach.

I let out a sharp gasp as I got sent flying back a few meters through the air, my feet skidding back as they hit the arena, before I gritted my teeth and shot forward as she sprang back and fired another explosion at me.

"Stop doing that already!" She yelled furiously as I swallowed it up with Ravage, before lunging at her as I closed in, grabbing her right wrist as she began to raise her hand.

She tilted her head across as I drove my blade towards her throat, inflicting a deep cut across the side of her neck before she struck my head with her left hand.

Three percent...

She wrenched her right wrist free of my grasp and twisted her body across to the right as I snapped at the side of her head with Ravage, tearing off several shreds of skin off her left cheek and the side of her forehead, blood streaming down the side of her face.

I sprinted forward as she began to back away, weaving across the arena as I unfurled a vicious barrage of strikes and slashes at her with my blade, while simultaneously attacking with Ravage.

I inflicted several shallow cuts across her skin as she narrowly evaded any direct hits, she was more focused on avoiding Ravage...damn it, she's too fast, Ravage isn't fast enough to catch up to her!

Suddenly, as I drove my blade towards her chest, her right arm shot up with immense speed and grabbed my forearm, abruptly halting the thrust of my blade as she tightened her grip.

Shit, the Spite debuff wore off, this is bad...!

I let out a sharp wheeze as she slammed her left fist against my stomach, on the same spot she'd struck earlier, but with a lot more force this time.

She let go of my arm as I stumbled back, before she shot forward and leapt towards me, her foot striking the middle of my chest with immense force and sending me hurtling back through the air.

My back slammed onto the barrier with a jarring impact, my bones rattled as I gritted my teeth and tried to get back onto my feet, struggling to muster up my strength.
