Aiden's hand swung past the moment Oliver dodged his punch, the fist went to waste. But he didn't stop there, he immediately threw another punch that wasn't coming with much force as well.
Oliver also dodged that as Aiden's hand swung past again. Now, it was Oliver's turn to attack, and do you know the attack he came with? A kick.
He threw a kick as it began heading toward Aiden's face. Now, this was a little careless, if the kick touches Aiden's face, he was definitely gonna feel pain from it and it can also take him off the ground.
But Aiden was gonna dodge it, yes, while training him, his dad taught him how to dodge to an extent. Aiden moved to the side a little as Oliver's kick moved past.
And the moment that happened, Oliver didn't waste time throwing another kick, it was a swinging kick. Aiden was gonna feel more pain from this if it touches him...it was heading toward one of the sides of his stomach.
Well, Aiden dodged it as well as the kick swung past. Now, this martial arts was going well to an extent, Ava just stood there glancing at them.
Due to the different training they've received concerning martial arts, their fighting wasn't lame. But it wasn't that good either, it shows that they were still learners when it comes to martial arts.
..Now that Aiden had dodged Oliver's second attack, it was about time for him to attack again.
And he plans on coming with a punch once again, yes, he wanted his fist to hit Oliver's face or one part of his body. He ran toward Oliver and reached him in no time 'cause they weren't far away from each other.
The moment he reached him, he threw another punch that was heading toward his face. From the look of things, Oliver was easily gonna dodge it, and he did.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe bent his head as the punch swung past. And now, that was a big opening for Aiden. Yes, he dodged the punch, but he wasn't fast enough to quickly raise his head and all that.
So before Oliver could make another move, Aiden threw another punch with his left hand since he threw the first one with his right. And you know, the punch wasn't coming with much force again.
..Yes, Aiden would always reduce the force of his attacks when throwing them toward Oliver since they weren't supposed to injure each other.
And do you know where the punch was heading this time? Oliver's stomach. And from the look of things, it was gonna hit him. It hit his stomach, and because Aiden didn't throw the punch with much force, Oliver felt slight pain.
..Yes, he definitely felt pain, but it wasn't enough to cause his eyes to widen and for his mouth to open.
And also, the punch caused Oliver to move back a little. If it came with serious force, he wouldn't only move back, he would also fall to the ground. Oliver held his stomach with both hands as he was moving back.
After he was done moving back, he glanced at Aiden...Aiden was the first to hit him and not the other way round. He nodded his head a little and uttered to Aiden...
"Nice one".
And a smile just appeared on Aiden's face at that moment, yes, it was a nice one. If they were counting scores, then he was leading, he was already proving that he was the strongest between the both of them.
But that can't be decided yet until the tournament comes to its climax...yes, that's when a winner would emerge.
'Oh! He's even smiling'. Oliver thought to himself the moment he noticed the smile on Aiden's face.
..Now, that prompted him more to want to make use of his affinity.
Yes, before he noticed the smile on Aiden's face, he wanted to begin making use of his power element since Aiden had already punched him. Now, making use of their affinities, he might have a chance of winning.
But noticing the smile on Aiden's face made him sure that he was gonna begin making use of his power. Definitely, once he begins making use of his affinity, Aiden would begin making use of his affinity as well.
From the way Oliver stood, it was evident he was about to begin making use of his affinity, Aiden noticed this immediately. And Aiden's voice resounded at that moment...
"Oliver, just to remind you, remember that this is just a tournament, things shouldn't be taken seriously. No one must get injured, and no death must occur".
..Yes, he just had to remind him, who knows whether Oliver would start taking things seriously because of the punch he received.
Oliver was making use of mana now to the best of his capability, he was transferring mana toward his legs. He was applying what he's learned to the best of his capability.
As known, though they haven't trained their powers properly, though they haven't gone to any of the academies specialized in training benders, they've learned to make use of their affinities to an extent due to the little training they've received.
The moment Oliver was done transferring mana toward his legs, that part of channeling worked well. Immediately, he stamped one of his feet to the ground, and a certain size of stone came out of it.
Now, the stone was somehow mini, but if it hits you, you are definitely gonna feel pain. The stone would have been larger if Oliver had learned to make use of his affinity properly, but he hadn't learned to.
This was what he learned the most when it comes to making use of his affinity, causing stone to come out of the ground and kicking it directing it to hit someone.
The moment the stone came out of the ground and reached a certain height in the air, Oliver kicked it as it was heading toward Aiden with speed.
..Aiden just stood there glancing at the stone move toward him, it was definitely coming with speed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWould he be able to dodge it or was he stuck? Yes, he would be able to dodge it. It was coming with speed, but he'd be able to dodge it...and that's what he did.
Before the stone reached where he was, he had already moved to another spot as the stone just moved past and landed on the ground.
Meanwhile, Aiden wasn't aware of something, he didn't know that as he was busy dodging the stone heading toward him, Oliver had already brought out another stone from the ground and kicked it as it was heading toward him.
So the moment Aiden glanced front, the stone had already gotten so close to him...but he still managed to dodge it. It was a very close call though 'cause the distance between them wasn't that long, they weren't that far from each other.
As said, it was a very close call, but Aiden still managed to dodge it. And as he was dodging it, he was already transferring mana toward his right palm...it was about time to make use of his fire affinity.
..He would make sure Oliver doesn't throw another attack, it was about time for him to do the throwing.
As he was standing upright, he had already ignited flame on his right palm. It wasn't that large, and it wasn't small either. He was running toward Oliver, and the moment Oliver saw the flame on his palm, he panicked a little.
..The power of the fire affinity, the flame was glowing, it screamed danger, and Oliver was glancing at it.
He was about to make use of his earth power element once again, but the moment he saw the flame on Aiden's palm, he stopped, he panicked.
In fact, he wasn't even ready to dodge whatever attack Aiden throws at him with the flame after seeing it on his palm. It wasn't until Aiden had gotten so close to him that he realized he needed to dodge whatever attack Aiden throws at him.
And Aiden wasn't a fool, even if Oliver doesn't end up dodging whatever attack he throws at him, he wouldn't blast him with the flame.
..Blasting him with it would cause serious damage, it would injure him badly.
And they weren't supposed to injure each other, so Aiden has to be very careful not to blast him. The moment he got close to Oliver, he forwarded his hand as it began moving toward him.
It wasn't only his hand that was moving toward him, the flame on his palm was moving toward him as well. But Oliver was already dodging it, it wouldn't blast him, this Aiden had already noticed.
Oliver moved to the side as Aiden's palm moved past, and the flame on his palm went off...Oliver succeeded in dodging it.
..But Oliver wasn't aware of something, Aiden was already transferring mana toward his left palm.
