"Is she dancing?" Kai asked with narrowed eyes as he saw the elf spinning three times before throwing a lightning bolt from her hand.
The bolt tore through the air and hit the other elf and he fell down. The dancing elf won and bowed down to the audience before walking off the stage.
"It adds more power and precision to lightning-based attacks. Where are you from? The jungle? It's such a basic thing." The elf said to Kai as she walked away.
"Is that true Levina?" Kai turned to look at Levina since she was supposed to be an expert on the lightning element.
"It doesn't add any precision or power to the next attack. It is a wah to show off your power and nothing else." Levina replied as an idea filled Kai's mind and he grinned at that.
The same elf advanced to the final round and after a gruesome battle, came won't as the victor. Now all four winners were summoned to the stage.
The winners included of Kai, Levina, the dancing elf, and another elf with close-cropped hair and a subtle beard.
"The Golden lightning ruler is appearing!" An elf announced as people stood up and bowed down their heads in respect.
Kai and Levina on the other hand were wondering why someone would want to be called by a title that basically said that they depended on a certain thing for power.
But that didn't matter as a woman moved from the palace and appeared above the cube in the arena.
The woman had beautiful golden hair with hazel brown eyes. Strands of her hair came in first of her pointy ears and her eyes were full of curiosity as she looked at the four assembled winners.
She was wearing a sleeveless pink and brown dress that revealed a little of her side boobs.
The woman touched down on the arena floor gracefully and an aura of superiority surrounded her as she eyed each of the four winners for a few seconds.Her gaze lingered on Kai for a few minutes before she looked at the announcer and he nodded and bowed before moving away.
A battle bell resounded as the two other winners got into battle positions. Kai and Levina on the other hand were interested in seeing how this so-called golden lighting ruler fought.
The two elves launched themselves at the woman as one fell back and started launching lightning webs to trap the woman while the other one made an are out of lightning and swung it at the woman.
She just sighed in disappointment and raised her hand as sparks of golden lightning danced around her fingertips.
She extended her hand and threads of golden lightning traveled forward as they tore the web so flight ingredients made by the other elf into two pieces.
The person who had swung the ax was now trapped between lightning when and golden threads of lightning as the woman lifted a finger and the elf suddenly fell down as his body shook.
The woman then focused her attention on the dancing elf who had stopped cresting webs and was now creating lightning bolts.
She spun thrice and launched a fleet of lightning bolts at the woman who started moving forward with a bored expression.
She dodged the lightning bolts with perfection as not a single one of them hit her. In a few seconds, she was standing in front of the dancing elf who was trembling with fear.
The woman smiled at that and touched the dancing elf's shoulder with her hand. The dancing elf's body went still as her eyes rolled back and she fell on the ground unconscious.
She then turned towards Kai and Levina who was watching her with mysterious smiles. The woman frowned as hardly anyone had looked at her like that.
"What is your name?" Kai asked as the entire place went silent.
'This place still has that rule huh.' Kai thought with a sigh as he remembered his only visit to the land of lightning ages ago.The elves here had a rule that no one can ask the ruler for their name unless they were as strong as him/her or the ruler decided to tell them his/her name.
"Lian Qin." The woman replied with a sly smile as she told everyone gathered there her name.
Lian family was the ruling family of the land of lightning while the current ruler's name was Qin.
"Levina, do you want to take her on?" Kai asked as Levina shook her head.
"Knock yourself out." She replied and walked off the stage and left behind Kai and Qin staring at each other.
Qin made the first move by summoning up a bow made from golden lightning and numerous lightning arrows appeared in her hand.
She knocked them in the bow and shot them at Kai as he grinned at her. His hair started moving towards the sky as dark clouds rumbled loudly. Twin bolts of lightning shot out from the sky and passed the cube.
All around him, Kai heard the elves gasp in shock as they looked at the twin bolts of golden lightning that Kai was holding in his hands.
Qin was taken back as Kai threw one of the lightning bolts at the incoming barrage of arrows. His lightning pierced through her arrows and landed just an inch away from her body and she could tell that this was no mistake.magic
Kai had deliberately made sure that the lightning bolt would stop before it touched her body and was now watching her with interested eyes as he wanted to see what her next move would be.
Qin didn't say anything as her lightning bow vanished. She instead closed her eyes and started rising in the air as lightning started running around her body.
The clouds rumbled once again and a mega bolt of lightning hit her body and illuminated the entire place.
The audience was blinded for a few seconds but once their vision returned, they could see Qin hovering in the air as her whole body glowed with pure lightning.
Kai on the other hand raised his eyebrows as though he was impressed before he threw the second lightning bolt into the air.
The bolt seared through the air and went beyond the dark clouds as everyone looked at him with confusion.
But Kai just flicked a finger at Qin as he rose in the air. A burning smell filled the entire place and hundreds of lightning bolts appeared around Kai and shocked the entire place.
"Let's see if you can survive this attack." Kai said with a smile as he directed the lightning bolts towards Qin.
