“Something is clearly wrong here. These mages are not normal mages. Somehow, they have been avoiding our attacks with the greatest of ease We o find out what’s going on here so I knock that idiot ft on his ass.”

  The three sisters huddled together trying to make sense of the situation.

  “Do you want to know why my mages are so fast?” An asked with a smirk. He approached the huddled group with i. His eyes seemed to gleam with secrets as he waited for their response.

  Risebelle replied firmly.

  “No, we don’t o hear your idiotic expnation. We’ll figure this out on our own.”

  An’s smirk remained in pce as he shrugged. He was unfazed by her refusal.

  “Well, suit yourself, just don’t say I didn’t give you an offer which you refused” he responded casually. The mages tiheir relentless assault and Risebelle’s frustration grew. She knew she had to do something to turide of the battle in the favor of her Sisters, but what would be Risebelle’s game-ging pn?

  “Fine. If they won’t py fair, theher will I,” Risebelle muttered to herself. She focused her magi summoning the malevolent rain cloud in the sky, and as it formed, a wicked smile crossed her lips. “Let’s see how they like this…Acid Rain!”

  The dark cloud grew rger and darker, casting a shadow over the battlefield. Then, with a andiure from Risebelle, the cloud released its corrosive rain upon the mages. The hissing sound of the magical acid as it fell from the sky was chilling, and the mages quickly found themselves struggling to avoid the deadly rain.

  Risebelle’s eyes narrowed as she watched the mages’ movements slow dowo the corrosive rain.

  Ahe scorg fmes he had summoinguished by the sudden downpour of corrosive acid rain. The immense pain of the acid burhrough his skin and clothes shocked him. As he struggled to shield himself from the acidic deluge, his mind raced.

  ‘This... this isn’t good,’ An thought, gritting his teeth against the searing pain. ‘I didn’t expect her to have such a devastating ability. We o find a way out of this rain and regroup.’

  As the acid rain tio pour down, Risebelle’s fury grew. Frustrated by the mages’ evasion tactics, she decided to take matters into her own hands. Discarding her on, she closed the distaween herself and the mages, her fists glowing with magical water energy. With relentless abandon, she struck out at the mages, pung through their fire-based attacks with her water-infused fists. One by ohe mages fell to her close-quarters assault, their fmes extinguished by her fury.

  Meanwhile, Roselle struggled to hit the mages pursuing her. But in a moment of inspiration, she focused her energy on the grouh her. With a swift motion, she created a slippery energy trap on the forest floor. The mages, taken by surprise, slipped and slid untrolbly. Seizing the opportunity, Roselle aimed her massive on and fired a shot that elimihem with precision.

  Runebelle’s shots became more effective now that the mages couldn’t evade as easily. Some of the mages mao unleash fire bsts toward Runebelle, but she repared. She summoned her ice, fire, ah pilrs, using the fire pilr to shield herself from the ining attacks. Then, she sent the earth pilr crashing into the remaining mages, causing signifit damage and eliminating them one by one.

  An couldn’t believe his eyes as he watched his mages being eliminated one by one. He held great shock as he muttered, “No way.”

  Risebelle, with a fideern face addressed An.

  “You used your fire magic to enhaheir speed and evasion, didn’t you? That’s why you had a squad of fire mages. You sacrificed variety for specialization.”

  An’s earlier shoow turned into a smile as he admitted, “Well, I guess I’m busted again. You’re quite the perceptive one.”

  An, now more posed, aowledged Risebelle “You’re pretty smart. I see why you’re the one in charge of your team.”

  Risebelle maintained her serious demeanor but nodded in aowledgment. “I take my responsibility seriously, especially when it es to proteg my sisters.”

  An and the sisters found themselves in a standoff, each side sizing up the other. The faced off in the Mystical forest was about to ehe tension was growing aher side seemed willing to back down from one another and approached each other with cautious movements. An stood with his arms folded a a smirk in his gaze.

  Roselle, Risebelle, and Runebelle stood together with powerful stahe forest around them seemed to hold its breath as if anticipating the csh that was about to unfold.

  The battle between An and the three sisters began with a fiery spectacle. Roselle, Risebelle, and Runebelle unleashed a volley of on bsts at An, their shots streaking through the air with deadly precision. However, An responded with a powerful dispy of fire magic. Fmes erupted from his hands, creating a searing inferno that devoured their attacks and pushed them back.

  While fmes raged around them, An pressed his advantage. He unched puhat sent waves of fire in all dires, f the sisters to evade the scorg heat. Roselle, in particur, found herself in a perilous situation as An closed in on her.

  With a sudden burst of energy, An opened his mouth wide, gathering an immense amount of fire energy. He unleashed it in a searing stream toward Roselle. The incredible heat struck her, causio cry out in pain as she was set abze.

  Risebelle and Runebelle watched in horror as their sister was engulfed in fmes.“ROSELLE!!”Risebelle shouted as she rushed to Roselle’s side while desperately trying to extinguish the fmes that engulfed her sister. She summoned her water energy to her hands with the io create a torrent of water to douse the fire; however, before she could plete her pn, An struck her with a powerful bst of fire.

  The impact sent Risebelle flying backward, her own body now scorched by the fmes. She nded with a painful thud and her skin was sm from the fmes. Risebelle struggled tain her footing.

  Risebelle’s Acid Rain began to dissipate, but she realized that her own fmes were rapidly fading along with it. The corrosive rain had dos job, not only slowing down her enemies but also inguishing the fiery onsught that had engulfed her and Roselle.

  The two sisters, Risebelle and Roselle, found themselves in a temporary respite as the acid rain cleared the sky which provided a brief moment of relief from the scorg fmes.

  Breathing heavily, Risebelle turo Roselle, her eyes filled with resolve. “Roselle, we ’t let up. We o keep fighting together and find a way to defeat this idiot. Are you okay?”

  Roselle nodded. She spoke strained but said, “I’m okay, Risebelle. I agree, let’s make a eback! ”

  An tio unleash waves of fmes in their dire, the sisters, Roselle and Risebelle, worked together to set up a trap. They strategically pced slippery energy traps on the ground, hoping to lure An into their scheme.

  With a menag barrage of fmes, An focused his attention on Roselle, sending a relentless onsught her way. However, just as the fiery assault was about to e her, Runebelle intervened. She summoned a powerful fire pilr that rose between Roselle and the fmes, abs the fiery onsught.

  A out a growl of frustration as his attack was thwarted. The sisters had mao protect each other, and their coordinated efforts were starting to pay off.

  Risebelle took this opportunity to shout, “Now, Roselle! Let’s lead him into our trap!”

  The sisters began to run, leading An in pursuit. They reached the area where they had strategically pced the slippery energy traps. An, with a loud excmation of “hey,” followed closely behind. However, he stepped into the trap. He was reminded of the previous enter when a simir tactic had been used against him.

  An, not oo be caught off guard twice, swiftly reacted. He spun rapidly, creating a swirling tornado of fire around himself. The fmes roared and danced, f a fiery barrier that repelled the effects of the slippery traps.

  With a smirk, he called out, “ry!“Risebelle’s annoyance was evident as she watched An easily ter their slippery energy traps with his fiery tornado. She ched her fists, frustration building withihe move had worked against tless oppos in the past, but An’s resourcefulness proved to be a pressing challenge.“Aqua Whirlwind!”Risebelle summoned a swirling vortex of water and magic materialized around her, creating a chaotic maelstrom that threateo engulf An.

  The Aqua Whirlwind roared to life. With great trol, Risebelle directed it toward An, creating a whirlwind of water bdes that whizzed forth threatening to slice through anything in their path.

  An’s surge of fmes roared higher and higher, overwhelming Risebelle’s Aqua Whirlwind. The intense heat and power of his fmes surged through the enviro causing the water bdes to sizzle and evaporate before they could reach him. Risebelle’s teique was overwhelmed by the sheer force of the fmes.

  Stunned by the sudden surge of power, Risebelle found herself momentarily uo react as the fmes danced around her.

  “Why do you look so surprised? It’s on knowledge that no matter how well your affinity ters another, if your power isn’t strong enough, you’ll be overwhelmed by greater force.”

  Risebelle gritted her teeth in frustration.

  An’s eyes bzed with fiery power as he decred, “Alright, dies, you’ve sted at least a mih me. That in itself is an impressive feat for a couple of creations and I have to give you your stars for effort but… It’s time to kick it up a notch.”

  He began to gather an immense amount of magical energy. Fmes swirdled around him like a tempest. The temperature grew scorg hot and the forest around them seemed to wither in the heated enviro.

  “Ladies, get ready. I’m about to unleash my Extreme Magid I won’t hold back. Be careful….ah who am I kidding… You’ll be ied either way!”

  His power surged to new heights and the fmes surrounding him roared with life creating a bzing inferno that threateo e everything in its path.

  As the iy of An’s fmes grew, Risebelle couldn’t help but remember Abner’s words about Extreme Css Magic. It was a tier above Greater and High-tier magic, a realm of power that few mages ever reached. She khat whatever An was about to unleash would be a formidable and potentially overwhelming force, and it sent a shiver down her spihe sisters were in for a serious struggle.

  The fmes surrounding Roselle, Risebelle and Runebelle made the forest take on a fiery, crimsohe walls of fire encircled them, creating an infernal barrier that seared everything in its path, including the forest floor beh them. The sisters found themselves in a perilous situation, taking damage from the scorg fmes all around.

  An, with smirk, gave a o this devastating form of magic, “I call this ‘Inferno Cage.’ It’s a pce where you’ll either be buro ashes or by me.”

  Risebelle shouts out in desperation “Acid Rain!”

  She extends her arms toward the sky, but nothing happens other than the fmes intensifying further.

  “Don’t bother. Your affinity isn’t strong enough to ter this,” An said with a cold look on his face.

  The fmes tio engulf them, and Risebelle, along with her sisters, feels the excruciati and pain.

  An’s fmes surged in iy as he prepared for his devastating attack. With a fierce shout, he unleashed a colossal pilr of fire that shot toward the three sisters. Risebelle and Runebelle mao evade the fiery onsught, but Roselle, in her haste, strayed too far and brushed against the searing fmes of the encirg fire wall.

  Her body was quickly engulfed in fmes, and the agonizing pain forced a heart-wreng scream from her lips. The forest fire roared arouhreatening to e her entirely.

  Risebelle watched in horror as Roselle was ed by the fierce fmes, she screamed her sister’s name “ROSELLE!!!”‘ No…I ’t lose Roselle. Not like this..!’
