His illusion of him stuck in my ice trap disappears and I duck just in time to avoid being smashed by his scepter as his real form appears behind me. I roll on the ground and stand back up on one knee, facing him as he does the same. Alright so ice doesn't work.

I ignite my hands and arms with flames as I break the concrete around me, lifting chunks of it into the air as I glare at him, breathing hard.

"Why so hateful to your god?" he spats as if he has a right to rule me.

"The only God of mine wears a crown of thorns!" I cry out and charge forward, roaring in fury as I ready myself to destroy him with flames, the pieces of concrete behind me flying straight at him.

He has only a second to block one with an ice wall and the next smashes against his golden bracer. I have grabbed his scepter and knocked him on his back as I growl like a beast, roaring out as I send fist after fist against him and he fights me off, trying to do anything to get me off him but I eventually catch his scepter, anger burning through me as I let the fire on my hands turn blue, staring into his eyes as the weapon turns insanely hot, glowing red as his hands burn from the touch and he has to let go, panting hard from the pain as I throw the thing across the site.

I feel a hard punch in the face and I grunt, him able to shove me off and I tumble against the ground, holding my lip as I get up and he does the same. But I lunge towards him as he creates an ice spike from the ground that almost impales me. I have dodged it barely and I avoid a punch from him when I'm close. I conjure a knife of ice and swing it at him with a battle cry. He catches my arm and I send my foot against his leg, him letting go and grabbing my throat. I grunt and send my blade of ice into his arm but it smashes into frost. So I teleport from his grasp and appear behind him, sending my foot hard against his back. He stumbles a bit and swings around to kick me himself but I roll forward, plucking a knife from his boot before I stand up and catch a punch from him, bearing my teeth as I swipe him with the blade on the arm. But I think the fabric keeps it from slicing him that much and he grunts from the slash before his arm recoils. He uses his other hand to try to punch me, his hand frozen with ice to make a harder impact. But I dodge it and elbow his arm, blocking a kick from him with my hand laced with fire. I thrust my fist into his gut but he catches my arm and freezes me. I teleport out of the way before an ice spike comes from the ground and kills me. He turns around before I can stab his knife through his neck and hits my arm hard enough to knock the weapon from me. I roar and throw my fist towards him again but he blocks it with his bracer and I try to kick him but he dodges and sends his own fist to me. I move to the side in a flash and grab his arm beside my head to leap around him and onto his back, crying out in rage as I yank his body to the ground and teleport on top of him, pressing my hands to his chest to make his flesh burn with the fire on my hands. He almost cries out in pain and I growl, pulling my hand up to bring my gun to it. Once I have it I cock it and press it under his chin before I pull the—my weapon flies from my hand with a flash of blue and shoots across the concrete. I look up to see something land down a few feet from us.
