Legacy of Forgotten Times 199 Blood Fountain

[Blood Manipulation]

All the blood they and Leon had spilt had now become a weapon for Fosse. As a vampire the longer a fight dragged on the stronger he would be. The tiny droplets of blood started hitting the now slowed down golden raindrops and exploding.

It was taking immense brainpower from Fosse to do something like this. This was a newly gained ability. Despite being natural at manipulating blood due to his vampiric heritage it was still hard for him. Blood started to drip from his nose. While countering the [Kallipos' Fury] Fosse would not be able to do anything else. Now it was up to Rondo and Rina to finish of Leon.

[Static Cling] X [Electic Slide]

To get a better angle for attack Rina clung to the wall and dashed towards Leon's direction while firing lightning bolts. She managed to destroy Leon's barrier and got a couple of good hits. Leon should be on his last breath!

It seemed like Rondo and Kou were also thinking the same thing. They both dashed towards Leon. Rondo slashed with his sword while Kou managed to pierce Leon in the chest with her wind lance. This was exactly what she was waiting for!

[Ex-Burst: Kamikaze]

Leon was lifted off the ground as a mini-tornado appeared below him. Kou started to fly as well and started slashing Leon from every direction. She was too fast for their eyes to follow. It was like multiple Kous was on the battlefield hitting Leon from every possible direction. As she was about to deal what seemed to be the final blow Leon struck!

[Aqua Jet]

Leon started to shoot in every direction from his body. He did not know where Kou was so this was the only thing he could do. However, it was good enough. With this, he was able to disrupt Kou's combo and finally escape from the mini-tornado under him.

"Hah" 

*Rip*

[Kallipos' Fury] finally stopped and Fosse was able to catch his breath. He focused on Leon to see he was cleaved in half starting from his chest. Even though the smell of blood was intoxicating to him this was still too much! Leon was spurting out blood like a fountain before his body disintegrated. That scene was burnt to his eyes and he wanted to throw up.

"What? I wasn't about to listen to his egoistical bullshit again" said Linri as he wiped off the blood from his face. What he did was pretty simple actually. Using his ability to manipulate fire he just commanded the sword to go upwards which created the scene we saw just now.

Since he was tortured way worse than this by Udcek, Linri was not bothered by the sight he just saw. The same was true for Rina and Yui. Rina was a member of the Hagane clan and she probably saw stuff way worse than this. As for Yui, she was either too good at hiding what she was thinking or she was similar to Rina.

Kou, Rondo and Fosse, on the other hand, looked pale. They were modern people who did not saw any bloodshed in their lives. Especially, Kou who had a naive mentality. This was apparent by the fact that despite looking pale neither Rondo or Fosse threw up while Kou was puking outside the window. Condolences to any poor soul who was passing through under that window at that moment.

As the fight was over Linri looked at his stats to see how much prana he had left.

Primary Ability: [Stone of Twilight]

Flame Devourer: Passive; The user can control every flame on his line of sight. However, he can not control the flames others have created. He can, however, devour magical flames to gain prana. He earns prana equal to half the opponent used when they created said flames. After devouring process if Linri's prana pool is full he can store the excess prana in his body for a short amount of time. If the prana he stored in his body equals to the next rank of prana attribute he stores he implodes. Ex: [4x Extreme Prana]=500 [5x Uber Prana]=1000 which means he can only store 999 prana in his body currently. 

Azure Flames: Passive; with Linri's new mastery over his element he gained a new ability. Now his flames can either be ethereal or material. This won't change the cost of his abilities. If he uses the material function on one of his abilities they can be touched like normal things and they don't disappear after they complete their attack but unlike ethereal form they can be smashed which stops their functions. Unless stated otherwise flames with material property has a default [2x Exceptional Endurance]

Azure Flame Bullet: A projectile of little azure fireballs at the size of fingertips. They travel at [3 x Superior Speed] and they deal [2 x Exceptional Strength] of damage. The user has to spend 5 prana in order to cast one fire bullet. The user can only shoot a maximum of 10 at a time.

Inferno Cage: A giant cage of azure flames traps the opponent. If the opponent touches the bars they take [4x Extreme Strength] of fire damage. The user has to spend 50 prana in order to cast one Inferno Cage. The user can only have a maximum of 3 active at a time.

Wox Hunt: A projectile of a wox made out of azure flames. It has homing properties and won't stop until it has hit his target. It travels at [3x Superior Speed] and deals [5 x Uber Strength] of damage. The user has to spend 200 prana in order to cast it. The user can only summon 1 wox at a time and can't summon another one until the previous one has hit its target.

Firewall: A wall of azure blue flames that can be used to defend. It has a thickness of 20 cm and a width of 5 meters. The wall has [4x Extreme Endurance] and can only be cast in material form. The user has to spend 20 prana in order to cast one firewall. It doesn't have a limit on the number of times it can be cast.

Azure Flame Arsenal: Ability to create weapons and armor out of azure blue flames. They are stronger than normal weapons so the weapons deal [3x Superior Strength] of damage with each strike. If the user possesses [3x Superior Strength] the damage raises to [4x Extreme Strength]. The weapons can be handed to others. The armors made out of azure flames possesses higher defence than normal so they have [3x Superior Endurance].

However, they are made out of flames so unless the user has some sort of way to protect themselves from the fire they will burn themselves. The user has to spend 25 prana in order to cast Azure Flame Arsenal once. It doesn't have a limit on the number of times it can be cast. If the weapons are cast with the ethereal property they gain the ability to move at [2x Exceptional Speed] but they lose their endurance attribute.

Flame Hands: Linri can create hands made out of azure blue flames. They can be big or small but they will always carry the same attributes. The hands have [2x Exceptional Strength] and speed. If they have the material property they can interact with matter just like normal hands. If they are not commanded they will just circle around Linri. Each hand costs 10 prana to cast. Linri does not have a limit on how many times he can cast it.

Flame Propulsion: Linri can create azure blue flames under his feet and hands to fly. If he only creates flames under his feet he can levitate a little but can not fly. If he is flying he can not cast any other ability but only manipulate the already existing ones. When he is flying he has [2x Exceptional Speed] and [1.5x Above-average Agility]. Maintaining this ability does not cost any additional prana. He has to spend 30 prana to cast it once. If he touches the ground after using this ability it's cancelled and he has to recast it.

Secondary Ability: [Elemental Tail]

Linri is a three-tailed woxen. Each of his tails grants him the ability to control a new attribute. Unless he changes it himself his default tail will always be fire. Once he changes his tail all of Linri's attacks will be converted to that attribute but they will keep their original properties and looks. I.E if Linri uses his Lightning tail his flames gain lightning attribute and behaves like lightning (travel through water) and if he uses his ice tail the temperature of his flames drop below zero.

In order to increase the number of tails, he has Linri has to either consume a treasure of the said element or he can gain them normally as his body matures.

Current Tails: Fire, Ice, Lightning

Ex-Burst: [God of Twilight Descends]/[Expand]

-------------------------------------------------------------

Dammit all the extra prana he had gained from devouring Leon's [Supernova] was gone and he was in the minus by 45. This was out of his expectations. He had thought the 200 prana he devoured would be enough to defeat [Water Lord] Leon but turns out he was wrong.

As Linri was thinking Linri felt like something touched his head. He didn't even need to check it to know it was wox. He hoped that it wasn't angry about Linri throwing him but that was necessary. He didn't know how Leon would attack and he could not split his focus to protect this little troublemaker.

Wox also had learnt how to exact revenge from Linri. Whenever it was angry at him or feeling playful, it would bite Linri's ears. Yes his ears! Don't assume that just because his body looked human, it returned to being one. He was actually using a minor illusion spell he learnt from Lyra. Because he was part Kitsune and had affinity with illusion spells it didn't cost him any prana to maintain this look but all his animal parts were still there.

Honestly, he was feeling like Lyra intentionally did not touch him how to retract his tails. He was sure that there was a way and she was just hiding it from him just because she liked his current look. I mean since it was such an easy spell it had no effect on Lyra and she could see through it.
