"Enough of the riddles, fight me or refuse your choice, either way, I'm in," Issac said, losing his patience while Lilly also had a frown on her face, looking at Luke, who just sighed and said
"Fine, I never needed anything from the beginning anyway." He got up with one hand at his side while the other was raised outwards, facing Isaac and Lilly. He said, "There is a certain power you need when it comes to challenging me. You alone clearly don't meet the requirement now, adding your sister, barely passing the limit I set for myself."
Issac's face turned red with anger, and Lilly's frown deepened as Issac yelled, "You are too arrogant. Let this be a reminder that you, too, are human." He jumped forward into a fist fight. Luke used his fist, which was already raised to block the catch. Isaac then tried to use the other fist, but Luke threw his fist with additional power from not his skill, but just a simple spell from the affinity.
Skills are something that are unique to you and most of the time allow one to use their affinity in a way that no other person with the affinity can do, even if they have a higher level of affinity. However, affinities themselves have tricks and powers that are sometimes more powerful than the skills that they possess. The tier of the affinity shows how well they can use the affinity, and also the exact capability of the affinity.
Luke's power affinity, after he trained in it, allows super strength. Luke used his super strength to throw his fist to the side, causing his entire body to twist towards the side. Luke's fist clenched into a fist as he threw a punch towards Isaac's stomach, causing his vision to black as he was sent flying back to his sister. All of this took place in a second as Lilly was too shocked to interfere, but she recovered enough to catch her brother, who regained his consciousness and looked at look with eyes that burned with desire to win.
The instructors outside took note that Luke had not ignored his affinity like most people are used to doing. This is something that sets those who have graduated from an academy apart from those who didn't, they don't know how to use their affinity, causing them to be more limited than their potential. "Am I still too arrogant? It seems to me that you are the one overestimating your ability," Luke said, as Isaac's eyes burned even more.
"I will go this time, brother," Lilly said. Issac looked at her before nodding. Lilly then walked forward as she said
"I will punish you for treading on the name of Lionheart."
Her hands raised as Luke felt a force pushing his body, and he immediately used energy to reinforce his body as he was able to stand the force. He looked at the girl who was now floating with purple energy seeping out of her skin and her floating behind her. 'System, what is her status?' he mentally asked the system.
[ Name: Lilly Loinheart
Skill: Entropy Bloom (SS-Rank)
Affinity: Dark Energy (Tier–8) ]
'Dark energy, huh? Powerful. I want it, Luke mentally commended the system, the system seemless copy her power. Luke was about to spin, but Issac landed a punch at Luke's stomach, but he, being reinforced, made him too a few steps back as he felt it for a bit. "Alright, that was my fault for being distracted," Luke said. He then moved in to punch Issac back but was repelled by Lilly, who also hit Issac. She then said
"I said I am fighting him." As she puffed her face out, which made her look cute in Luke's eyes, but he held the gaze back, lest he wanted to be burned by Claudia's flames. He then walked off the imaginary dust as he, then got much more serious, while he not taking them as a threat, but he was now seeing them as more of training.
"Energy volley," Luke said as bright golden energy bubbles began to form out of thin air near Luke. He pointed towards the general direction as the energy dots shot towards the loinheart twins. Lilly immediately counted by trying to push them back or create distance, and she succeeded to a certain extent, but Issac stole the spotlight as he made the energy twist their trajectory and hit each other.
Luke frowned as he thought, 'What are this guy's powers?'
[ Name: Issac Loinheart
Skill: Event Collapse (S-Rank)
Affinity: Gravity (Tier–7)]
'I want this too!! But first let's beat their ass up' He thought as he zoned onto the enmies, he quickly ran towards the Issac. Lilly was prepared to interrupt him, but he surprised her as his legs shot energy beams, causing him to accelerate towards Lilly. She didn't have enough time to force him back, as it takes immense concentration to access her affinity. Luke was about to mid-air kick her to her face with an energy-beamed kick, but instead created an energy volley towards Issac, who was prepared to repel him from Lilly. He was caught in the volley thrown a few feet away on his stomach as Lilly looked at him and yelled
"Brother!"
"I am touched by your sibling love. Why don't you join him?" Luke said as he approached behind Lilly with his fist pulled back, ready to hit her. Her face turned back just in time to catch a punch right towards her forehead, causing her to fall to the ground. The world was shocked for the third time, it was not the norm to hit women hard, even though they are mages, unless it was war or a close fight, they were usually not brought into harm's way.
Somewhere, Samuel, who was looking at this, clenched his fist as he thought, 'Young master, even after the classes on etiquette and how to treat women, you still…'
Lilly, who fell, rubbed her head as she said, "How can you call yourself a man after hitting a woman this hard?" Issac was hit with an energy volley and was barely getting up, as he lost consciousness twice in one fight didn't even cross her mind.
"I believe in equality," Luke said as he approached her again, using his energy as a booster, and roundhouse kicked her in the face. Sending her flying before straight up kicking Isaac in the stomach, causing him to vomit, if not for him hitting him with another energy volley. This, however, was blocked as it twisted in weird ways before falling onto itself and exploding near Luke.
