Location: The Arena - Reception

Anwalt saw the fierce fight and how LightFlare seemed to have everything under his control and how almost none of Hyde's attacks were working against him.

Anwalt: OK, that guy's clearly something else altogether. Guess the "hero" title isn't just for show.

Anwalt: Though that aura of his... is it a demonic one?

Location: The Arena - Virtual Training

While everyone was seeing the fight, Lucent kept on training. The AI didn't seem to give too much of an effort, but he still kept being very attentive of their movements even if the session was almost over.

Lucent: *evades a slash* Close one. Now for the riposte.

Lucent attacked the soldier three times and used Cragfall to push him away with a single crystal. Soon, all of the soldiers were reunited into one place.

Lucent: Alright, just a little more and-

Machine: Time up. Session has ended. Please leave the room.

Lucent: Already? OK. I did manage to train a while and to vent out my frustration. Guess my swordsmanship needs a little more practice, but I'm not fanatic for fights...

Location: The Arena - Training Room

Lucent left the virtual reality room and looked at the TV. He saw that Hyde has just attacked and LightFlare used a move to move around impervious.

Lucent: Just by this sight and I can see that Hyde's struggling to stand up and attack. Whoever this person is, he's tough.

Lucent: (I might just stand here and keep watching. I'm not going to fight anyone, anyway, and I don't want to head back to the seats.)

Location: The Arena - Lobby

Anwalt looked at the TV at the lobby and looked at both fighters.

Anwalt: "The Hero", eh? Seems like a tough wall to take down.

Location: Training Center

Lucent looked around the training center, trying to find the right equipment, when he heard the cheers coming from the TV. He gave it a glance to see Hyde against an unknown person, seemingly more experient when it comes to a fight.

Lucent: That's definitely an uncommon combination. I wonder if Hyde will manage to win... the other person seems ridiculously strong...

After giving the glance, he stumbled on a strange panel, in front of a room that seemed new there. He examined the whole structure and then looked at the panel once more.

Lucent: (Wait, what is this...? Virtual reality?)

Lucent: (Guess I found the equipment I'm using. I just need to configure the AI.)

It didn't took too long for him to understand how to operate the machine. With some presses and he managed to finish configuring the settings.

Lucent: OK, let's revise the situation. 6 foes in the field, weapons enabled, magic power enabled... location set to arena. Now to press start and to go in.

After pressing the start button, he went inside the room.

Location: Virtual Reality Training

Once he went in, the place seemed to fit a colosseum. If that wasn't sufficient, the AI chose to look like soldiers instead of thugs or something less royal-looking. They went into position, ready to battle him.

Lucent: At least I won't need to worry if they're hurt. Code of Illusions: Lukroar!

BGM: Rain Tear Cage

From thin air, light began to radiate as a grimoire materialized in front of him. Lucent took it and immediately entered into fencing stance as the AI foes moved towards him.

Lucent: I'll make sure not to let any of you remain standing, AI or not. Judgement!

Lucent called upon a powerful light beam rain to attack all the soldiers. He then beagn to float and charged at them..

Lucent Vermillion's Battle Properties (Dream Type)

In contrast to his brother, Lucent has little proficiency on close combat, but his magical proficiency is high. In his Dream Type, Lucent is a illusionist with a large consistence on long-range fighting and support. He can fly as his main mobility manuever. He possess a variety of spells, but most of them include healing and buffing. Although his magic may mimic the elements, they will always deal non-elemental damage except all of his Light spells. Also, Lucent suffers from a lack of single-target skills, since all of them include AoE-esque skills.

Special System: Illusion Shards

Each time Lucent conjures an offensive spell, he will generate one crystal that floats around him. Those crystals are necessary for him to unleash the Draconic Illusions, which are considerably his Supers. His Super spells consume 10 crystals, so Lucent is unable to conjure all Draconic Illusions at once.

Spell List

1. Offensive

Cragfall (Earth/Illusion): Lucent conjures boulders to fall upon a an enemy and the area around it.

Acid Rain (Water/Illusion): Lucent conjures a rainfall to attack an enemy and the area surrounding it.
Firestorm (Fire/Illusion): Lucent conjures a pillar of flames to attack an enemy and the area surrounding it.
Avalanche (Ice/Illusion): Lucent conjures a snowstorm to attack an enemy and the area surrounding it.
Judgement (Light): Lucent conjures a light beam rain to attack an enemy and the area surrounding it. It deals higher damage against Dark-elemental users.

2. Healing

Heal (Light): Lucent greatly heals a single ally's health.
Clearance (Light): Lucent removes all status ailments from a single ally.
Gift of Renewal (Light): Lucent buffs an ally with a healing aura that moderately heals wounds for 3 turns.
Mercy Rain (Water/Illusion): Lucent creates a field that slightly heals allies positioned inside it for three turns.

He got up and cleaned some of the dust in the clothes. Then, he scratched his head and sighed.

Anwalt: Well... nothing I can do, right? A loss is a loss. Gotta admit, I went cocky because of my training with Lucent, but I should've known it wouldn't be the same thing.

Anwalt: By the way, there's no need for you to attack me. Your first knockdown was on that moment when it looked like nothing happened. I took advantage of the moment just to look as if I wasn't down.

He went towards Raina and extended his hand. He wasn't planning to trick her after revealing the truth... and even if he did, what would it change?

Anwalt: You're pretty strong, I'll give you that. Next time, I won't be an idiot and I'll give you a hell of a fight.

Location: Training Center

Lucent went in and looked at the television there. It seemed the battle was already over, with the result he saw ever since the beginning.

Lucent: (I know someone would say "Shouldn't you have some faith on your brother?" or something like that, but on a fight he'd lose immediately for going cocky... there's just no point.)

Lucent: (Also... while I'm at it, I better discard this form while I'm at it. This isn't how I look anymore, anyway...)

For a normal human, it would look like as if he disappeared and someone else stood at his place. Lucent abandoned his old image, one he used at Anwalt's request before travelling, and took his current form once more.

Lucent: Now then... where should I go to practice first... or rather, which equipments are sturdy enough so I don't have to discharge my anger at Anwalt later and be reported for cruelty or something of the sort?

July 14, 2018

Location: The Arena

Anwalt: What the- AGH!!

Anwalt wasn't able to defend it well and got knocked out for his third time.

Anwalt: Shit... I lost...

June 22, 2018

Anwalt evaded some of the orbs, but others were aimed at him into an point where he wouldn't evade.

Anwalt: Alright then...

With his palm, he stopped an orb. A second one came in and stopped it with his another hand while being pushed by them. A third and a fourth orb came, fusing themselves with the others. While still being pushed, Anwalt managed to hold them still.

Anwalt: Now to take off this annoying light...!!

Anwalt's dark aura got visible once again as he began to drain the light and fill the orb with darkness. Soon, the big orb got pitch-black.

Anwalt: And back to your owner you go!

Viper's Staggering Fang!!

He charged energy and reared back in a stance. Once done, he hit the orb with a leading hand to a jab and sent it flying at fast speeds back to Raina.

June 21, 2018

https://i.imgur.com/leajl2D.jpg Anwalt: Like hell I'm getting hit once more.

June 9, 2018

Unable to escape, Anwalt gets hit and his first visible yet second knockdown happens.

Anwalt: (Shit... Knocked down once again. One last chance.)

May 20, 2018

Location: Training Center

Lucent: O-Oh, did he? OK... I'll be checking them out...

Lucent walked away towards the while thinking about it. Anwalt might have done it while Penelope was dragging him to the seats.

Lucent: *sigh* (Let's... maintain the composure. I can't lose my cool all the time... though I'm honestly hoping the training dummies are durable.)

Location: In the Arena

The crowd's cheer would let someone get cocky. Not Anwalt. He knew this was far to be over since the score was actually 1:1. In stance, he waited for Raina's next move instead of charging ahead, like usual.

Anwalt: (The dust blocked the sights, but I took one down, so we're even.) Get up.

May 19, 2018

Location: Arena

Anwalt: Like hell I'm gonna let you do whatever you want. HAAAAAH!!

Anwalt ran blindly at her, taking the hits from the amulets. The damage he was taking was boosting his own strength, so he didn't mind getting hit.

Anwalt: Here we go! Nightmare Stampede!

Anwalt went back at her with a flying kick once again. Because of his ability, however, he went at her like a furious cannonball.

Location: Training Center

Meanwhile, at the Training Center, Lucent looked around, when he noticed Kirimuri was looking at him.

Lucent: (Analyzing me, are you? Well, I do need to train my magic, so you may feel free to watch.)

Lucent: (It's the least I can do to kill some time. Anwalt already received a knockdown, but the dust blocked his view so it made look as if he hadn't.)

He went to the secretary in order to ask her if he could check the equipment of the training center without being a member.

Lucent: Excuse me, I wanted to know if I could check the equipments without being a member. Is that possible or only with the membership active.

May 5, 2018

BGM: The Tyrant (BlazBlue Chronophantasma)

As the cloud of dust rose, there he was, standing normally. One could see that was a good hit, though. That didn't mean something actually nice. After all, his strength had been rising for a while now.

Anwalt: Heh, you're good, I admit. It's nice to get a different fight once in a while.

Anwalt: Well, guess I can actually go a little more wild now!

Anwalt repeated the same move from before: rising up a boulder and shooting it at Raina. However, instead of only going with one, he went with five boulders, those going even more faster than the previous ones.

Lucent: (She'll soon figure out that the more she brings him to the end, the more his strength will go up and the crazier he will be. She might try going for the certain one-kills instead of showering with a barrage.)

Lucent was showing complete disinterest on the battle. He hasn't been actually interested in watching the fights, less so to be there at all. Maybe the training center could be interesting? That would mean he had to give his name. Hopefully, he wouldn't have to fight someone, so at least visiting the machines used to train the fighters would be nice to distract.

Lucent: (You know what? I'm tired of seeing this. I can just kill him later at the Dream Realm. What was our score again? I died 7 times and he died 8... guess I'll open a difference just so drawing again gets hard.)

Lucent: I'll actually go back to the training center for a while. Tell me the results later, OK?

April 29, 2018

Anwalt: And I'm getting hit...

The wall might have defended him from a frontal attack, but the pincer one came in a speed that Anwalt wasn't able to react in time and got hit. Dust covered him, so he wasn't that visible. Lucent, bothered, sighed.

Lucent: *sigh* (Good job, idiot. You trapped yourself and got a deserved hit.)

Lucent: (Now do me a favor and get up, accept defeat or whatever, just end this now...)

April 14, 2018

Anwalt: (Typical flying shooter trick...)

Seeing that Raina moved to her right, he moved to his right, in order to keep blocking some of the projectiles with the use of the two orbs, still reflecting each other. He then proceeded to raise another boulder, but he tossed it in an arc, like a volleyball, instead of going straight.

Lucent: You liar, it didn't took you nowhere. You actually formed your own vision about this, so it's somewhere.

Lucent: But yes, if Raina were to keep shooting incessantly, Anwalt would lose... or not. I know my brother well, and he's used to situations like this since we train together a lot... and our training isn't exactly normal.

April 6, 2018

Seeing as the orb came at his direction, Anwalt reared back and began charging his power. The ground began to shake a little.

Anwalt: Not interested on buying the orb. Black Doom Spear!!

Anwalt's dark aura finally revealed itself as he charged forward and hit the orb with a hook punch. The clash between the powers was difficult, but he managed to send the orb back towards Raina. Once he did, he charged back at her while going behind the orb, in order to not let the distance enlarge more so that she was in a comfortable zone to win.

Lucent: (If it wasn't for the training back at the World of Dreams and Nightmares, he'd be exploded and took his first knockdown. Hmm...)

Lucent: What do you think, Penelope? How's the observation so far taking you?

April 5, 2018

Anwalt: Now the show's beginning to be fun.

Anwalt evaded the cards and needles, but the orbs managed to hit him and knock him away. He did that on purpose, since it related to his power, as Lucent knew really well.

Lucent: (Going to let her weaken you just so your power grows up?)

Lucent: (You should've grabbed her and take one easy knockdown. What's with you today? With her, you play around and when we're training, we're trying to literally kill each other?)

April 4, 2018

The distance between them made it hard for Anwalt to attack. However, he also got unsure about keeping the offense since Raina hasn't attacked once.

Anwalt: C'mon, Raina, show me what you got! If you'd rather just give up, I'm fine either way!

March 31, 2018

As the punch went down, it was successfully blocked by Raina. However, Anwalt quickly connected into another move.

Anwalt: Heh... Wild Nature!!

Anwalt barged directly at her with his shoulder. Since he wasn't a simple human, this was stronger than a normal barge.

March 30, 2018

Anwalt: *lands* Not so fast, missy! Chaotic Buster!

Anwalt does a quick dash and executes a hook punch towards Raina.

March 29, 2018

BGM: Rog-limitation still playing

Anwalt quickstepped to the sides, evading the energy needles.

Anwalt: A shooting flier, eh? Lucky I trained with someone like that!

Anwalt: Nightmare Stampede!!

Anwalt leaps at Raina with a flying kick. If it connects, it'll activate his special ability.

Spoiler

Anwalt Vermillion's Battle Properties

Anwalt is a close-range powerhouse with moves mainly consisting on physical attacks. He uses quicksteps and fast dashes in order to reach the enemy. His special ability, named Tyrant's Nightmare, allows him to place weakpoints on foes while fighting. If a weakpoint is successfully inflicted, the next attack will have a higher damage and bounce. It also boosts Anwalt's strength if he's taken to lower levels, so he's stronger while his health is lower. However, the lack of projectile attacks make of him an easy foe if the opponent concentrates on the long-distance and is able to maintain it for a long time.

Skill List

Chaotic Buster: Anwalt does a hook punch while doing a quick dash. Applies weakpoint. Connects into Wild Nature or Madman's Grip.
- Wild Nature: once the punch hits, Anwalt does a strong barging charge at the opponent, sending it away.
- Madman's Grip: once the punch hits, Anwalt grabs the foe's face and punches it away.
Nightmare Stampede: Anwalt leaps at the enemy with a flying kick. Applies weakpoint. Connects into Wing Crusher or Corpse's Fall.
- Wing Crusher: once the kick hits, Anwalt sends the oppenent down with an axe kick.
- Corpse's Fall: once the kick hits, Anwalt quickly grabs the enemy and descends with an aerial suplex.
Darkness Chaser: a special dash that Anwalt uses in order to go impervious through one single hit.
War Spike: Anwalt kicks the enemy upwards with an arc kick. Applies weakpoint. Connects into Demon Smash or Lion's Denial.
- Demon Smash: once the kick hits, Anwalt immediately jumps and sends the enemy away with a powerful punch.
- Lion's Denial: once the kick hits, Anwalt will grab the foe and use a rear choke. Once he chokes, he kicks the enemy away.
Black Doom Spear: Anwalt rears back and then delivers a strong hook punch at the enemy. Cannot apply weakpoints. If a weakpoint is applied at the foe before the move is used, it cannot be blocked.
Viper's Staggering Fang: Anwalt calmly charges energy, rears back and attacks the enemy with a leading hand to a jab. Applies a weakpoint that lasts for three special attacks. If a weakpoint is applied before the move is used, instantly triggers Black Doom Spear, but without considering the weakpoint and having lesser damage.
Spartan Daredevil: Anwalt does a quick, yet powerful combination of his moves in the following order: Chaotic Buster > War Spike > Nightmare Stampede to Corpse's Fall > Lion's Denial > Viper's Staggering Fang. Applies a weakpoint that lasts for five special attacks. If a weakpoint is applied at the foe before the move is used, the move is unblockable and all attacks will damage with weakpoint considered.
The Tyrant's Draconic Destruction: Anwalt attacks the enemy with a fist and immobilizes it. He vanishes, charges his energy and transforms into a dragon. He flies towards the the foe, barges in it and flies to the sky. Once he reaches the highest point, he falls down with the enemy and creates a massive explosion once hitting the ground.

March 29, 2018

BGM: Rog-limitation (Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru)

Upon hearing the bell, Anwalt moved back and grabbed the ground. He looked at his opponent, already serious.

Anwalt: You better start moving after this!!

Using his strength, Anwalt lifted a medium-sized boulder from the ground and kicked it towards Raina.

March 28, 2018

Once the announcer gave the rules, Anwalt snapped his neck and nodded as Raina gave him the answer.

Anwalt: Now that's a determined answer. I'm already eager to see what you're made of!

Anwalt: Alright then! I'm ready as well! Let's begin this show!

March 28, 2018

BGM: Stormship Stadium still playing

Lucent, while being dragged, sat right next to Penelope. As he did that, the barrier rose, in order to protect the audience.

Lucent: A barrier, huh. It looks sturdy, I guess...

Suddenly, the excited announcer called upon the fighter n.º 1.

Lucent: (I wonder who's the first one to fight...)

As the announcement was made, Lucent was caught by surprise, even though he knew this was possible: his older brother was the first one to go in.

Lucent: A-Anwalt?!

Anwalt: Well, seems like it's my turn first! *clenches fists* Hehe!

Lucent: (So, my uncontrollable brother is the first fighter in this? Please, don't send people to a monthly residence in a hospital this time...)

March 28, 2018

BGM: Stormship Stadium (Mario Strikers Charged)

Lucent follows Penelope to the arena seats, until they find themselves at a coliseum. It was already filled with people, but there were seats open.

Lucent: Whoa, a coliseum in the underground... this is rathe interesting. (Though I'm fine staying here on the audience.)

He looked around, trying to find good seats. Soon, he saw two open spaces in the third row from front to back.

Lucent: Oh, there are some seats over there. And they're rather close to the field, so we'll have a good vision of the fight.

Back at the registration area, the receptionist gave instructions on how to pick a fight. Anwalt thought about it and decided on the door he wanted to pick.

Anwalt: Hmm... I pick door number 1.

March 25, 2018

BGM: Main Menu (Mario Strikers Charged)

Anwalt: So this is the Arena, huh...

Lucent: Hey, the form.

Anwalt: Oh, right! Here, I'll get one for you-

Lucent: Did you just forget that I'm not fighting? Don't you put my name, I'm going to watch the matches with Penelope.

Anwalt: OK then. Pay the fee.

As Anwalt filled the form, Lucent paid the the 20 gil fee.

Anwalt: There you go, miss.

Lucent: The double doors to the left, right? Shall we go then, Penelope?

March 25, 2018

Lucent: Thank you very much, Sir.

Following the others, Lucent and Anwalt boarded the elevator.

Anwalt: I wonder what the Arena looks like.

Lucent: We'll see once it reaches there.

March 23, 2018

If Anwalt and Lucent had their auras felt, they could bring different reactions. Anwalt's aura was purely dark, since he was a half-demon who has the power of nightmares and devours dreams. Lucent, on the other hand, had a mixed aura. As he had the same nightmarish power as his brother, he had a holy aura thanks to his second power, which made them mix and become unrecognizable.

Anwalt: Whoa, there are a lot of people inside this place...

Lucent: Where's the bouncer the guard outside mentioned?

Anwalt: Blonde, tall hair... I guess that one?

Anwalt pointed at a strange bouncer standing at one end of the dance floor. He matched the descriptions given by the one outside.

Lucent: Yes, that's the one. Now we just have to go there, ask him where the arena is and get this done with.

Anwalt: Hold your horses, hasty. We don't even know if that guy's the right one-

Lucent: If you don't want to go, just say so. I'll go then.

Anwalt: ... (But I didn't say anything yet.)

Lucent went by himself and asked the bouncer about the entrance.

Lucent: Excuse me, but where is the entrance for the arena? My brother and some other people want to participate.
