Immediately, Thaddeus' arm, blaring with arcs of black lightning, smashed straight into Joki's face before the young man was able to react to the blitzing speed.
However, at the last second, a barrier of golden light appeared directly in front of Joki's face, blocking Thaddeus' attack.
The explosion of energy was enough to send both opponents flying back.
But in the next instant, Joki actually sprang forth with horrific speed, as a golden blade suddenly appeared in his hand out of nowhere.
'Here is my chance!' he roared in his head, as the golden light burst out of the blade, destructive golden light energy cracking the air apart.
Joki took one last step forward, the entire ground seeming to get pushed down by the weight of power, and his arms bulged to twice their size.
"Aurora Sword Slash!"
"DIIIIIIIIEEEEE!!!"
A beastly roar surged out of his clenched teeth as the golden sword flashed out with horrifying speed towards Thaddeus, who could barely even react.
