Chapter 248: Fighting Varyn and Caius (6)
Caius, empowered by both Tempest's Grace and the destructive power of his Dominion of Storms, rushed at Lucy with everything he had. The storm he had summoned raged fiercely, the winds howling as if the sky itself was tearing apart.
Lightning struck the ground in rapid succession, and the earth trembled with the force of his power. Caius believed this storm would be enough to crush Lucy.
His form was a blur, his sword crackling with electrical energy as he moved with blinding speed. Every strike he aimed at Lucy was swift, precise, and filled with the force of the storm.
The winds screamed as they tore through the air, but Lucy stood her ground, her expression cold and unmoved.
Her Volcanic Aura flared around her, the intense heat radiating from her body dissolving the winds before they could touch her. Each time Caius swung his blade, Lucy blocked it effortlessly with her Volcanic Dragon Claws, her fiery eyes never leaving his.
"How can you still stand?!" Caius roared, his voice filled with frustration. He swung again, faster this time, but Lucy stepped to the side, her movement so smooth it seemed like she was merely gliding.
"You're strong, but not enough," Lucy replied calmly, her tone almost bored.
Caius gritted his teeth, his eyes wide with desperation. He raised his sword once more, the energy of the storm gathering around him as he prepared for another assault. But before he could strike, Lucy vanished from his sight. In the blink of an eye, she appeared behind him.
"What—" Caius didn't even have time to finish his sentence before Lucy's Volcanic Dragon Claw was around his throat, lifting him effortlessly off the ground. The storm around them began to falter, the winds weakening as Caius struggled in her grasp, his eyes wide with terror.
"Y-You can't kill me!" Caius gasped, his voice trembling, desperation creeping in with each ragged breath. His eyes darted around frantically,
Lucas nodded, his smile never fading. "Always, big sister."
With the threat behind them and their bond reaffirmed, Lucy and Lucas turned their attention forward, the molten wasteland behind them fading as they began their journey again. They had faced much, and more challenges lay ahead, but together, they would overcome anything.
