(S2) EVENT FIELD: The Place Where They Slumber
Cipher Izanagi:
At the end of the fights, Seifer had accepted his loss with dignity, no matter how much it stung. Even losing to his avatar of flames. That stung worse than anyone could imagine. He lost outright, struggling to find a footing against Neu. However at the end of it all, he answered Neu's question with unwavering resolve and faith in his own words, and the ones that would come after him. Smiling with a sad soft look as his current Vanguard was locked away from him he gave a soft sigh. Opening his eyes just long enough to look at Neu, he kept the smile. "I'll trust those after me. And to you to. You may be the enemy now but..." before he could finish he just shut his eyes, fading away from the space in a pale light.
Kisaragi Zane:
After watching Neu defeat Seifer, Jellal's hand started to tremble. Excitement? Fear? He wasn't sure, but he knew that Neu would be even more difficult to face than when they fought before. His shoulders stiffened and he was breathing heavier, acknowledging that there was a possibility of failure.
"I could back out now... but..." he thought before being signaled to take out his deck from his back pocket. He felt Maelstrom's presence embracing his chosen vanguard along with wind circling around him, restoring his sense of clarity. It felt as though: Maelstrom was letting Jellal know that he had nothing to fear. "No matter what..." Jellal said "I can't give into despair, not this time, not ever."
He approached Neu without uttering a single word after, laying his armada out on the table as the wind picked up: signaling that he was ready.
Hope:
May as well, that was her main signal as well. No words.
"It's time to fight."
Jellal had the heal triggers come for him whenever necessary, his determination was unwavering. Even on the sixth damage, it came to his aid. Neu wondered how this was so, his avatar and a crossride appeared before her. Most things that were unexpected happened, things that could not be foreseen. All things were calculated until Glory Maelstrom arrived on the field along with a perfect formation. Every turn was an endless wave of attacks, eventually Neu's Vanguard was worn down, she had suffered her first defeat.
"Man..."
She looked down at the cards. All kinds of grief were in her heart at the moment. A feeling of failure, she was about lose the Royal Paladin clan. They no longer had the ability to exist within the space. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes as they faded away.
Neu: 4/5
Beryl:
With Jellal's success and Seifer's failure, it was up to the remaining champions to push Neu more into a corner. Irminsul decided it was their turn to step up to the plate. Waving a hand, they indicated to Neu that they were next to make an attempt.
It was time for that desired strength to pull through.
Kisaragi Zane:
Both fighters met each other on the battlefield in opposition. Both were silent, and focused everything solely on this fight: both with many things on the line. They stood up their vanguards. Jellal had his Cadet Erik facing against Neu's Wingal Brave: of Royal Paladin. Neu started off with an early lead against Jellal's Dorothea and Basil, although Jellal managed to score 2 early heal triggers back to back to keep himself at 2 damage. Jellal's signature card: Blue Storm Dragon Maelstrom was up against Majesty Lord Blaster, a unit he could never forget. By the legendary paladin side stood before another unit that Jellal knew all too well: Blaster Dark. Neu continued to pressure Jellal and surviving each wave of attacks, even stopping Maelstrom's devastating Limit Break.
Jellal remained under control but even he knew that the longer this fight plays out, the harder it'll be for him to survive. He started to give in, especially after seeing the holy dragon, Soul Saver Dragon, activate it's skill giving power across it's allies. With the vanguard attack pushing Jellal to five, and two more big attacks on his way, he had no choice but to take an attack. A sixth heal appeared, giving Jellal a chance of turning this fight around.
He stand and drew, calling upon the divine will of his dragon, Maelstrom met his wishes: crossriding himself into a dragon only known in myth as the conqueror of cray; Blue Storm Supreme Dragon, Glory Maelstrom. Activating his Ultimate Break, Neu couldn't guard with anything higher than a grade one, Jellal managed to score a heal and a critical trigger, turning the tables. Neu pressed on for one more turn but avoided giving Jellal the ultimate break that would've cancelled out the perfect guard she had obtained. Jellal's armada stood once more and delivered a swift finish. He was surprised that he was able to win, but he felt happy that he was able to fulfill his promise to restore the clans like he said he would.
"Thank you Maelstrom." A feeling that he never had, even with Shadow Paladin by his side. The feeling of gratitude for the units he could now call his own. Jellal proceeded to rest up while the next chosen fighters would proceed to take on Neu.
