" Spatial magic; Gravity suppression." The gravity increased tenfold plummeting Linnaeus towards the surface of mergard. Like a light beam Ryan chased as he maintained his gravity suppression on Linnaeus.
Linnaeus swung his arm, from the earth below massive pillars of dirt rose up piercing at Ryan. Hurricane lances of wind struck the dirt pillars scattering dirt everywhere.
" Combination magic; sun flare."
A miniature sun enveloped the sky about to swallow Ryan.
A water veil surrounded Ryan as he continued after Linnaeus, " Spatial magic; Chaos domain." Suddenly the gravity went berserk within a 100 kilometer radius, dust rose and fell without pattern. It created an everchanging battlefield.
" Earth magic; magnetic earth." A layer of firm gravity was fixed on the ground preventing Linnaeus from floating up due to the chaos domain.
Hundreds of wind bullets, magic missiles littered the sky flying within the domain about to rain on Linnaeus.
Linnaeus deployed his mana barrier when the attack split each bullet and missiles attacking from every direction.
BANG! The earth shook as Linnaeus was blasted backwards though his barrier without a tear.
"Whoosh." The air above constantly changed direction affecting visibility of Ryan.
" Incinerate." " Booom!" A massive blast wave surged from Linnaeus, heat searing the flesh.
" Haa, haa, huuh." Ryan's breathing was labored, the air was hot almost scorching his throat.
' Though he hasn't shown them, he has mastery of all the basic elements. I have just learnt this but lets try it.' Ryan looked ahead as mana infused into his eyes. Mana eyes, he was large amounts of mana gathering southwest of the chaos domain.
" Chaos domain; gravity pull." The gravity stopped being erratic hurling everything at the center of the domain.
Linnaeus adhered to the earth resisting the pulling force, instantly hundreds of earth spikes arose skewering anything on the ground.
Mana swerved enlarging the fireball in Ryan's hands as the pulling force intensified.
He threw the sphere to the center of the domain; " Inversion!" A massive repulsive force scattered the fire ball. Patches of burnt earth turned a tad crimson due to the intense heat.
" Playtime's over." Linnaeus scattered his mana barrier walking in the chaos domain towards Ryan's presence. His magic robe despite the high quality and powerful enchantments was slowly burning up however his flesh remained pristine without a wound.
A few minutes passed as the mana settled and visibility partially returned but Ryan could not believe what he was seeing. Some distance away stood Linnaeus bare chest, his biceps and sturdy muscles exposed.
" Are you done playing?" Linnaeus asked.
" No." Said Ryan. " Combination magic; Fire storm." In a split second a stormy heat washed through the area one more.
" Ooh, you can use combination magic at your level." Linnaeus's interest was piqued.
" Try this then, glacial wave." A wave of ice rushed at Ryan erasing the heat in the air, coldness prevailed in mere seconds about to pierce Ryan.
" Spatial magic; False reality." The moment the ice pierced him, he vanished only to appear behind Linnaeus. " Light magic; Divine shackles!" Blinding chains rose binding Linnaeus on the spot.
A still silence permeated the air.
Rumble.
A shaking occurred as Linnaeus pulled shaking the chains, showing his overwhelming strength.
" Stop." More chains bound his legs, making him kneel on the ground. " Those chains absorb magic from the captive. You won't get free. " Ryan stated through deep breaths.
Rumble-Rumble-Rumble...
The earth shook fiercely, mountains in the distance collapsed as if a dragon was about to wake up.
Linnaeus stood up the chains tightened about to snap his limbs.
" Do you know how many saints and ancient magus it takes to bind those of the titan race?" Linnaeus spoke, his figure exploding as he rose to 15 meters in height.
" This is enough." With a tug the chains broke. " 10 ancient magus and 100 saints. Just to bind one titan." His voice thundered across the sky, " Do you think, you a fledgling arch mage can bind me?"
" I am Terios, destroyer of worlds! You? Bind me? Who decided that?" Linnaeus's towering 15 meter tall figure looked at the 2 meter Ryan in fury.
" Combination magic; Sun flare!" A voice reigned in the sky as if God when without warning a city in the kingdom Ostriana vanished in a blazing inferno.
" Water magic; Cerberus's tide." over in the Islands of mergard a massive tide broke as pillars of water like maws drowned the Kingdom of Wales wiping it off the map.
" Combination magic; Frozen world." The kingdom of Ostriana became a land of the frozen as sculptures parents and kids decorated the frozen plains.
Dead.
" 2 Kingdoms. Should I just annihilate the rest?" Linnaeus pondered out loud.
" STOP!" A shout drew his attention. " Light magic; Guardian...OUROBOROS!" A massive 50-60 kilometer massive snake manifested swallowing up Linnaeus within a heart beat.
The earth shook as it glided on the ground.
Ryan looked deflated, he breaths had grown more laborious. Every magic spell he had used was tier 7 and above. With the guardian spell being 9th tier magic.
BOOOOM!
The scales of ouroboros broke as massive titan rushed out holding a massive axe.
The ouroboros phantom screeched, its massive head turned to the titan. The titan glowed bronze.
" Come!" Linnaeus roared as he lunged swinging his axe. Wind torrents accompanied the slash making the air howl.
The phantom flickered it's tongue, it tail came out swinging as well.
The axe and tail clashed...
" Whoosh-Rumble..."
The blast wave shook the land as if the planet was about to crumble.
The phantom was blasted far into the distance while Linnaeus only fell back a few hundred dozen meters.
A light beam rushed at Linnaeus. The phantom had released in while being blasted backwards.
It rapidly closed in. " Bastard!" Linnaeus was enraged. " Earth magic; Logthar!" A 40x40 kilometer earth wall blocked the route as Linnaeus recovered.
Booom! Shiiiisssh.
Smoke arose as the light beam was heating up the wall piercing through slowly. " Reinforce." Linnaeus casted reinforcement magic.
A few kilometers away Ryan lay on the ground he was supplying enormous amounts of mana for the spell. He looked as if each breath was about to be his last however light particles infused slowly into his body helping him recover slowly.
At last the beam dissipated, the wall had held.
" Haaa." A sigh escaped Linnaeus's lips. " Fuck! That bastard where is he?" Linnaeus used his mana sense attempting to find Ryan.
" Teleport..." A whisper barely escaped Ryan's lips as he in a blinding light vanished from the battlefield.
