The Magus smirked. He wonder should he transform, but than decided against it.
There's no fun in easy win.
Lightning crackle, he than vanished. He reappeared behind the phoenix and whispered, "Dispel."
BOOM.
A bolt of mana crashed into the phoenix's core.
The flame beging to disperese like it was snuffed out. And the phoenix fell.
But even then… even as its body cracked apart in midair… a single feather drifted downward, still glowing.
The Magus caught it, eyes gleaming. "Interesting."
SWOSH!
The crater glowed white-hot as the phoenix's burning form rise from the feather launched skyward again, fire trailing behind it like a comet in flight.
Its wings stretched wide, arcs of condensed plasma crackling off every motion.
Above, the Magus hovered midair raised one of his palm. On it a swirling black mass begin, it's the relic he taken from the alpha.
BOOM!
