Learning this pattern gave him the freedom to sacrifice less mental power towards his defense and push it towards offense. His Wind blades were becoming faster and more accurate, and the body of the girl was practically in pieces.
Although he was not sure how much damage he was inflicting upon her at the start because she had always been laughing, perhaps she had not realized that as the battle was proceeding, her laughter had begun to die down.
He had observed that no matter how much he was able to rip her apart, her body was still kept together by strands of muscles, bones, or vines, and no single part of her had been lost so far.
Therefore the goal was to sever a body part entirely from the whole and destroy it entirely. Andar did not think that this was impossible to do so, no matter how tyrannical her flesh was to be, at this time she was still a Rank 3 Mage.
Her weakness was glaring to him, which was simply Aether. Without the usage of Spells which might have given her the edge, she was challenging Andar using her physique alone, but that was not the only mistake she was making.
It was an oversight that she challenged him when she was still a Rank 3 Mage and not stronger, perhaps if she attacked when he was an Acolyte, she would have the chance to win.
The fact was that, even without the ability to utilize any spells in this fight. He still did not know his true limits and he had not been giving his all in this fight, he was simply laying down the foundations and now he was ready.
Andar placed his hands together as if he was praying, his long jackets flared to the side carried by the winds around him, he had not suffered a single injury since this fight began and his clothes were still spotless.
He spread his hands apart, and the Wind blades that surrounded him instantly increased from ten thousand to ten million!
Next, he fully activated Gray Will and his body began to stiffen slowly. He did not truly need his body, just his mind.
Andar looked at the girl whose red eyes showed tiredness and he was uncertain if he saw a hint of doubt.
He pressed his palms together again, a relatively simple action, but what he was doing was just a distraction to hide the fact that he had been secretly creating tons of Wind blades and keeping them inside his Endless Vault, and now he began to summon all of them.
Sweat began to line her forehead, was her throne about to be taken away from her?
This uncertainty only made her grin wider. She had never anticipated that fighting someone weaker than her would cause her to draw on her Meditation Art.
"I am so happy, I finally have an equal." She whispered and the red of her eyes extinguished itself and what was left behind was a black iris, like the void between stars.
She pushed herself away from the walls and called out, "I am about to call on the power of my Meditation Art, I should warn you, this power was not made to be invoked inside the material universe!"
Andar simply cocked his head to the side, he knew that the method he could use to win this fight cleanly was not to allow her the chance to use the power of her Meditation Art because that would mean he had to reveal the power of his own Meditation Art.
He pointed a single finger; using this gesture, he separated the Wind blades around him into two and simply pushed fifty million Wind blades towards her as his reply.
This level of power meant he could not control it, he could only direct it.
"At least ask for my name first,"
The girl clapped her hand and laughed as a massive lidless eye made from red flames appeared behind her.
It was at this moment that the Aura and the energy output they were emitting could no longer be held back by this cavern and it exploded open, revealing this battle to the world outside, which was different from the Black Tower that Andar had expected, but he has no time to reassess this change.
What he saw however made him anxious, a battle had happened here but it was over, and above him were massive debris as if a world had been shattered, but the strain of controlling a hundred million Wind blades was so great he knew he had to end this fight before he could check his surroundings.
The only witnesses who could accurately see what was happening between Andar and the girl were the Arch mages, as anyone else would just see two green suns and a massive flaming red eye.
A massive shockwave erupted from this area that was so loud, that it silenced what was happening all around for hundreds of miles, and before the shocked gaze of the spectators, fifty million Wind blades that resembled a bright-green sun slammed into the body of the girl.
