"Hahaha." A dry chuckle escaped my mouth as I stared at a white skeleton soldier appear in front of me.
It was 7-foot-tall figure, there is nothing else to say..... It was a white skeleton with black armour made of black flames and a white plus shape..... What is it? A core? Or perhaps a heart? No, because skeletons don't have hearts, we'll go with a core.
"CRK....CRAK...KCR." The skeletal figure clanked its teeth.
'The name is kinda cool (?) Though, it is just describing it....'
"Hello?" I waved my right hand while sitting down on the ground.
'Damn, the damage I took from the earlier lightning explosion is making me a bit, though it's only by a bbbbbiiiiitttt, it is still making me sluggish.'
"This is not going all out, this is cheating!" I pointed my index finger at Vassago with glare.
".....?" Vassago tilted his head and made a dumb face.
"It is now, 2 v 1!"
'I should have been a bit careful of those, black lightning chains.....'
"Hup!" I jumped back on my feet and dusted off my trousers.
"Hm?" 'Should I just remove my t-shirt? It's already battered, so it doesn't make much of a difference.'
FIP- FUMP
"Hm~mm~" I removed my t-shirt and dropped it on the ground.
"....." Vassago stared at me with the dumb face to which I grinned and crossed arms to cover my chest.

"..... Attack!" Vassago said as he clenched his teeth in irritation.
"Wa-wait! You crazy basta-d!" I said and took a step back.
"CRAK....CLUNK...CAKT."
"Frost touch." I mumbled as pale purple mana flitted around my palms before starting to pulsate.
BOOM
I launched myself at the 'Knight of the black flame!' ... In my standards it was a good name, I can't help it.....
With a loud 'boom,' I launched myself at the skeletal soldier, as a small crater appeared beneath my foot, I immediately appeared in front of the skeleton and elbowed its skull, its helmet rippled once after my elbow landed, I felt like I was hitting a slime, I realised it could absorb and repel the kinetic energy behind my attacks.
"Aren't you a competent one... as a punching bag!" I said with a smug grin before pummelling it with jabs and kicks. After seconds of silent bombardment of blows.
BOOM (25x)
"Ho!" I noticed circular wind pressures forming behind the skeletal soldier. I wanted to continue pummelling it with blows until it broke, but.....
"Flame arrows." I heard Vassago's voice behind me and noticed mana concentration near him.
'Flame arrows, huh....'
"Frost spears." I mumbled with turning around.
The air around me turned white as a sizzling sound rose as two opposing elements clashed, exactly 11 spears formed around me, which I grabbed one from, aimed at the gap between the chest plate and helmet before impaling the skeletal soldier to the ground, and turned to face Vassago, who had around fifty black flame arrows that were a third the size of the Frost spears around me.
"Good sh*t, aye...." I mumbled and stared at 52 arrows aiming at me to which I responded by simply lifting my right arm.
"Spin." I muttered and the ten spears around me started to spin while aiming at Vassago.
WHOOOOOOMMMMM
Frost spears were aimed at Vassago horizontally while spinning vertically. They began to spin violently, strong enough to create cracks in the air while spreading cold air all around me, over which I had control.
"Snowflakes." I added snowflakes to the white cloud I was controlling and gained perfect control over it with less mana usage.
12 branched snowflakes spread out and around the white cloud, I extended my arm forward and spread my fingers out, the cloud split and covered all 52 black flame arrows in a small sphere.
"I won't work! You can't extinguish this flam..." Vassago snarled at me but I cut him short.
"Who said anything about extinguishing those?" I asked while grinning ear to ear.
"Wh...." he looked at the spheres in fear when he understood what was happening.
[I said to you, didn't I? That I'm making them mine.] I said to Vassago telepathically and grinned savagely.
BOOM
He launched himself at me with a loud 'boom,' creating a crater beneath his feet, then appeared in front of me and punched me in my face.
WHOOSH
"Ho! How fast!" I mumbled and jerked my head to the right to avoid the attack, aimed a spinning spear at him with my index finger and lowered it by the next movement, thrusting the spear at him, for a moment the spear vanished from sight before reappearing above his left shoulder.
SWISH
"If you do that Vinny dies!" Vassago said with a smug grin which flattered the moment he saw me, grinning.
"Who said anything about save him?" I asked while grinning widely and arching my eyes.

BOOM
I spear thrust down on Vassago's shoulder in an instant and pierced through the ground creating a spiral webbed cracks and a spear sized hole at the centre of it.
"You dodged it? Pity...." I said with smirk and waved my hand to clear the white smoke covering my vision.
WHOOOSH
"Y-you! D-do you n-not care wha-what ha-happens to m-my host?" Vassago stuttered with a terrified face.
"No." I smirked.
"Y-You Basta*d!" Vassago yelled in outrage, but.....still stuttered.
WOOOONGG
"Yes! This is how it should be!" I mumbled looking at limitless pitch black mana oozing out of Vinny's body.
WHOOOOIIINNNNNGGGHHH
ZKRAT-ZRAT (4x)
BOOSHHH, CRACKLE (6x) [AN: SFX of flame with crackles.]
Pitch black mana began to take shape behind Vassago, who was screaming in anguish; the mana assumed the form of the devil's upper body, materialized body's protruding, curved 'L' shaped horns which were touching the nearly 30-foot-tall ceiling of the training chamber, his claws were nearly a meter long, the materialized body's face had a pair of bloody red eyes with pure white vertical slits, its back had a pair of pitch-black feathered wings, and the body gave off a dark green aura.
"Hahahaha! Yes! This is it! Vassago your maker is in awe!" I roared.
"Human! I, Vassago, shall take your life, so that my host can be at ease!"
"Nah, that's impossible."
