Sunset teleports out of the grasp of the Dragon. She is now standing opposite the dragon and in the battle stance.
"If you think you can defeat me again, you are wrong," Whitty charges Sunset to slash her with his claw, Sunset blocks it by her staff. He uses another claw to slash her but blocked by Sunset's front hoof, the claw slashes her front hoof makes her bleed. Sunset is taken back from this, Whitty grins at her and keeps charging to slash her, Sunset has to dodge the slashes while she is chanting. Whitty sees that and uses his finger to touch her neck, make Sunset feel something strange.
Sunset is trying to chant the spell but her mouth doesn't allow her to do that, she can't produce any sound while chanting. She looks back at Whitty with an angry stare while Whitty smirks at her. Sunset rushes at him and uses "Wyvern Slash" on him but Whitty just grabs the staff and takes the fire like nothing. Sunset facehoofs at that because she forgot that the dragon can bathe lava. Whitty delivers Sunset a punch at her belly, sending her flying backward while he is still holding her staff.
Sunset tries to get up as Whitty breaks the staff. Sunset glares at him and takes out another staff, this staff has two crystals that attract two heads.
Whitty's claw glowing purple and black, "I thought you never stole anything."
Sunset spins the shining rod, " Sorry but this thing is... eh.... "
"Fail excuse," Whitty slams the claw on the ground and many dark chains appear around and rush at Sunset. Sunset jumps up to dodge the chains. The chains keep coming at her, Sunset teleports away to dodge, then swings the shining rod to block the chain, but the chains keep coming, and finally, it surrounds Sunset. Whitty sees that and smiles, but a light shining inside and all the chains step aside from her. Sunset rushes at Whitty and spins the staff, Whitty quickly creates a dark shield to block it. Sunset thrusts the shining rod against the shield.
After a moment, Whitty manages to push Sunset back and make his chains following her. Sunset spins herself to keep her balance. When she sees the chains are coming to her, she teleports above Whitty and thrust the staff to him. Whitty quickly blocks it by the dark shield, Sunset sees that and drags the staff into a circle as Whitty can't see it due to the dark shield.
"Why do I feel the shield is being drawn by something," Whitty decides to keep the shield up despite the shield's lack of sight.
When Sunset finishes the circle, Sunset sees the chain is coming. She quickly jumps up to dodge and thrusts the shining rod into the center of the circle, the circle is shining and it starts to shoot "Light arrow" into the dark shield. Whitty feels the shield is cracking and he knows that this shield can't hold it anymore. He decides to dispel the shield and jump out of the way of the "Light arrow ". He sees that Sunset is using that spell again so he grins. The 'ray' of "Light arrow" is chasing him and Whitty just dodges it until Sunset drains out the mana.
Sunset put her left front hoof to the circle, the circle stop shooting, much to Whitty's surprise. Then she draws a circle to overwrite the previous circle and throw it to Whitty. The circles start glowing spikes and spin with high speed. Whitty rolls forward to dodge the circle. The circle is plugged into the wall then disappears.
"Even if you can't chant the spell, you still fight well." Whitty takes out a red sword, "I should fight stronger than that," Then he rushes at Sunset and swings the sword to slash her. Sunset blocks the swing; Whitty drops the sword as it disappears after it touches the ground, then he uses his claw to slash Sunset. Sunset manages to dodge the slash, then she spins around and uses "Wyvern Slash" to Whitty, Whitty dodges it but suddenly a big dragon wing is coming his way. Not having enough time to react, he tries to dodge it but the spell slashes his chest, leaving a scar on it.
Whitty grunts as he sees his blood is dripping on his chest, he uses a healing spell to stop the blood dripping. He uses a wind spell and makes it around him, then the spell disappears, making Sunset confusing. Whitty inhales and kneels down. Then he snaps his finger and an explosion behind him. He rushes at Sunset with a speed of sound, making Sunset have no time to react. Then he punches at her chest, sends Sunset flying backward to the wall, makes Sunset cough some blood.
"What is that speed?" Sunset thinks as Whitty snaps his finger, then he rushes at Sunset and locks her neck against the wall. Whitty smiles about this.
"Give up yet?" Whitty asks as Sunset swings her "Wyvern Slash" at him. Whitty smirks and snaps his finger, he runs back far from her. Sunset sees this and a theory comes to her mind. She inhales and puts her hoof on the wall if her theory is right. Whitty grins and snaps his finger again, he rushes at her to punch her, making sure that Sunset will be knocked out. By the time he delivers a punch at Sunset's spot, he is surprised that Sunset isn't there, then he sees an ice hammer is coming his way. He tries to snap the finger but it does not create the sound, he looks back and sees this claw is wet. No time to react, the hammer strikes his face, sends Whitty flying backward, and makes him lie on the ground.
Sunset forces to kneel down because of the punch and dispel the ice hammer. She breathes heavily, leans her back to the wall, and looks at the dragon. She is sure that Whitty can't be knocked down like that. The white dragon gets himself up and rubs his chin, he looks at Sunset. He wonders how she can dodge that attack, but he thinks that she is lucky then he snaps the finger again; he rushes to the Sunset with the speed of sound and use his claw to slash Sunset. Once again, Sunset is not at her spot, then Sunset punches the dragon with the ice-covered front hoof, sending Whitty to fly backward again. Whitty gets up but still doesn't understand how she does it. He feels the buff is gone, and he feels good about this.
"You're still unpredictable as usual," Whitty teases her, making Sunset glared at him. Sunset closes her eyes and inhales, she covers the shining rods with a water aura. Whitty sees that and covers himself with a fire aura, then the duo stare at each other. After a moment, Whitty and Sunset start rushing at each other.
Meanwhile in Tactic tent
Eldaro and Sabrina come back to the Tactic tent. By the time they go into the tent, Eldaro takes a seat and looks at Sabrina.
"I know why you want Sunset, but this is not the time," Eldaro takes a cup and makes tea, "And you know that she is not going to agree anyway, why should you want to have her?"
"Come on, Eldaro," Sabrina takes a seat near the table, "I don't want a mage like that in the hand of other countries, she will help us a lot."
"Look, why don't you find someone like her?" Eldaro waves his hand in front of his face, "I am sure that she will deny and I won't help you to recruit her," Sabrina glared at him, "Don't stare at me like that, I won't help you."
"Fine, you got me,"
"Good, how is my suggestion?" Eldaro slams the table, "I want to know right now."
"The first and second suggestions are going smoothly, but the third one is hard. Only twenty percent of our people agree to do the migration,"
"I see. Just keep coming. Just keep coming in five days."
"Are you sure about this? Our King didn't understand why you suggested these?" Sabrina points at the capital city, "The King is setting Lavita city is stronger than others city," Eldaro nods as Sabrina circles all of the cities on the map, "All of the cities will have the same defense level."
"Good, we will wait for the reinforcement," Eldaro start going out of the tent, "Now, I just want to sleep,"
Sabrina nods, "Me too," Then she goes out of the tent to her own sleeping tent and yawn. "Good night, Eldaro," She waves her arm to him.
"Good night," Eldaro waves back and comes to his own tent.
Inside Sunset's body
The duo has been fighting for nearly two hours but no one wins. The pony and dragon are trying to stand with the heavy bruise, they are now very tired but no one will back down. Sunset is holding a flaming shining cane, while Whitty's claws have some lighting. He strikes the lighting into Sunset. Sunset takes the lighting, then she raises her front hoof and the lighting comes back to Whitty. Whitty dodges aside and tries to create a dark chain. Sunset rushes at him to prevent him from creating the chain but too late. The chain has appeared and Sunset teleports far from him.
Sunset breathes heavily, she feels her vision became blurry due to her tiredness. She shakes her head to make her vision become clear. But she is tripped by Whitty's chain, make her fall to the ground. Whitty casts a spell, a magic circle appears under Sunset. Sunset tries to stand up but the chains from the circle already wrap her up. Whitty uses his claw to slam to the ground, make Sunset electrocute. After a while, she faints. Whitty comes near to her to check that if she fainted or not. Then he takes Sunset's unconscious body and hugs her close.
Two hours later
Sunset opens her eyes and finds that her front hooves are not moving. Look back, she sees that her front hoofs are tied behind her back by a chain. She turns to the white dragon, who currently puts his head on her belly.
"You know, you don't have to tie me like this when you want to do that, pervert dragon." Sunset glared at him.
"Meh, I like you in this state more," Whitty teases, making her look at him like she wants to punch him for real, "Okay, fine fine. But I won’t release you."
"Wow," Sunset sighs, "Fine, I lost anyway,"
"Well, you accept?" Whitty asks and Sunset nods, "Honestly, you really are a moral warrior. I like that."
"I lost, remember?"
"Lost but still make me miserable," Whitty's face close to Sunset's face, "I don't know how you dodge my buff spell,"
"Well... Let's see... When I saw that you had to snap your finger to increase your speed and explosion when you rush at me. I put my theory that you are one with the sound," Sunset turns her head away from Whitty's head, "So, I put my hoof to the wall, and its work for instance," Sunset turns her head to Whitty, as his eyes widen because of surprised, "Because I know the sound travels fast in solid texture."
"You know," Whitty rolls his eyes, "That requires the user must have a fast reaction," His finger circles Sunset's belly, "If I don't want to say is monster,"
"Maybe training teleports increase my reaction speed," Sunset feels weird when Whitty's finger circles her belly, "But I feel that is not enough for me, do you have any suggestions?"
"You should train harder than this," Whitty kisses Sunset's forehead, "I just want you to be stronger and stronger,"
The kiss makes Sunset stoned because this is the first time she receives a kiss from a dragon. She quickly shakes her head while blushing so hard. She inhales and breathes out, and manages to asks him.
"So.... I think that I will never know your past," Sunset leans into Whitty's hold, "What a shame !"
"Don't need to worry about that," Whitty rubs her neck, "You have fought well, so I will tell you about my past."
