As the ogres rushed towards Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur, they began to prepare…
Immediately, Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur activated their barriers and shot lightning towards the ogres. But it did minor damage to the ogres as they charged…
But then Arthur realized something, the ogres were not extremely durable. They were just resistant to electrical attacks. After that, Arthur rushed in to close the distance so he could use hand-to-hand combat…
Boom! POW! Whack!
Arthur was overwhelming the ogre with his small size and speed…
"Haha, this is fun," Arthur laughed as he landed several jabs on the ogre.
Then finally, the others joined into the fight, and a few short minutes later the ogres were defeated…
Well done! Now it's time to test your real capabilities rather than just testing your ability to realize the truth about your opponent…
Then Aerin created an ogre mage and an ogre general…
You will need to go all out and work together on this one.
Now! Begin and no holding back!
Instantly, the ogre mage began casting a fireball spell, and the ogre general began running towards them…
As the ogre general reached Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur, the ogre mage's spells suddenly hit them but also the ogre general…
Well then, I guess you're only going to need to fight the ogre mage.
The ogre mage immediately sent out a second set of fireballs, and they hit Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur…
"Ouch! That hurt," Lio yelled out after the smoke subsided.
"Yeah!" Arthur added.
"You alright, Lyra?" Aelira asked.
"Yeah!" Lyra replied.
"We need to come up with a plan," Lio said.
"Me and Lio will go in close for close combat. Lyra and Aelira, you stay back and support with lightning projectiles," Arthur yelled.
Then Lio and Arthur ran towards the ogre mage as Lyra and Aelira stayed back…
Boom! Pow! Smash!
Lio and Arthur had broken the ogre mage's staff and beat it to death with support from Lyra and Aelira…
Well done! Very well done!
Get some rest. You earned it.
Aerin then snapped and made time resume…
You have half an hour.
In The Multiverse…
I've been moving through the multiverse for several days now, and I haven't seen anyone.
Now that I look at it, The Multiverse is rather weird. There are no stars or anything besides these bubbles, which I assume are other universes, but they look small.
If I find anyone else, they must also have at least one universe inside them. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to see them unless I shrunk myself. However, there could be even bigger beings too. Either way, I just hope it's not the only thing out here.
Back on Earth…
Alright, break is over.
Then Aerin snapped his fingers once more, and time stopped…
Now it's time for duels with yourselves.
Then Aerin created exact duplicates of Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur…
"What?" Lio yelled in surprise.
This is so you can learn to adapt mid-battle. Sometimes your opponent will know the way you fight and will be able to counter you. When that happens, you must learn to adapt and change the way you fight. The best way to do that is to fight yourself.
Now, let's get started.
Then the duplicates began charging towards Lio, Lyra, Aelira, and Arthur. And the fighting began…
Will Aerin's team overcome themselves? What will they do to adapt? Find out soon…
To be continued…
