Both boys did not even hesitate before lunging at each other with such deafening speed, one would shiver at the sound.
>WHOOOOOSHHHH<
Jerry sharply propelled himself with Wind Magic, aiming at his opponent who had also shrouded himself with a spell of the same elemental attribute. However, unlike Jerry, who was taking the initiative to strike, Richard Novo simply ascended high above ground.
The Upper Class elite moved in such a sharp turn, like a rocket, sending a force of great intensity radiating around him. This pressure knocked Jerry back a bit as he stuggled to maintain his balance, while looking at the height his opponent had ascended to.
"Being on the same level as a worm like you is sickening. The view is better from here…" Richard Novo sneered.
Currently, a wind spell taking the form of a mini twister was beneath him, circling from the boy's waist down. This was what held him up and gav him the height leverage that Jerry couldn't begin to overcome.
Richard Novo had always had a superiority complex, so this move was perfect for him. It allowed him to stare down at his opponents while attacking. Not only was he out of anyone's immediate reach, thanks to his wind elevation spell, but he could also attack from a safe distance. There was no means of fighting more suitable for the arrogant boy.
As for Larry, he was a Fire Mage by nature, albeit having diverse abilities in the other elemental attributes.pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ0ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
Usually, a Magic-User could use this attribute as an advantage against a Wind-based opponent, but judging from the gap in their abilities, any actions to that end would only backfire in Jerry.
'I have to do this!' Jerry's thoughts cried.
With resolute eyes, he summoned flames. They were sharp and precise, emanating from his legs, giving the boy the right boost to lunge himself forward… and higher!
Controlling his trajectory like a speeding bullet, Jerry dived into the air, aiming for his opponent.
"Looks like you've got a little trick, eh?" Richard Novo smiled, flinging his hands to create booms of winds, like torrents, to attack the fast approaching boy.
Jerry, in full on battle mode, noticed Richard's movements and already deduced an attack was coming.
>WHOOOOSSHSHH< pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ0ᴠᴇʟ
In an instant, he twisted his body in midair, barely dodging the wind attack as it charged at him. The moment the spell was evaded, Jerry returned his trajectory to his opponent and charged at full speed.
"What?!" Richard couldn't believe his eyes, that a Lower Class scum had evaded his attack.
Unknown to the aggravated boy, Jerry hadn't 'dodged' his attack per se. The boy who already knew his physical and Magic limits had honed his combat skills to the peak and polished every aspect of his senses.
That was how he could deduce an attack was coming and aptly avoid it before the damage would reach him. Jerry's quick wittedness was what could allow him to have even a bit of confidence in a fight he would normally have no chance of winning.
After all, even if his opponent was stronger than him, with enough experience and practice… hard work!... he could one day catch up.
Richard Novo was an entitled boy who believed in his superiority. There was no way this guy would be much of a threat to him. At least not at this rate.
>WHOOOOSSSHHHH<
More gusts of wind were sent in Jerry's way, but he dodged everything in an instant, closing the distance between the both of them.
It didn't take very long for Jerry to close the distance between him and his opponent, causing Richard to get a little flustered.
"H-How did you dodge them?" He muttered in disbelief.

For someone who believed that strength was everything, not taking into account practice and hard work, he couldn't comprehend how Jerry has been able to achieve the impossible. No, maybe he just didn't want to admit to it!
Jerry hardened his muscles and put all the strength he could in his right arm, while coating it with intense flames. Aiming for a clean hit, he launched his fist in a sharp thrust.
>WHUUUUSSSSHHHH<
Jerry's attack would have dealt considerable damage to his foe, sending the arrogant idiot crashing to the ground. That is… if it had hit!
Unfortunately for the determined boy, his target was known to be superior to him… not only in magic, but also speed!
The moment his fiery fist nearly hit, Richard Novo controlled the wind vortex that held him up, causing it to move sharply from Jerry's blow. In essence, his speed caused him to completely evade Jerry's full powered hit in mere moments.
Even without sharp battle instincts, his use of Spells vastly outweighed that disadvantage.
"Tch!" Grinding his teeth in frustration, Jerry turned his body in the direction of his opponent and made to lunge at him again.
'This time… this time for sure!'
*******
It was a battle of the air, one that seemed unreal to those who watched… well, just the newbies.
As Jerry would sharply approach, his opponent would dodge, sending wind slices that would completely place someone out of commission. Of course, Jerry would evade and keep trying to get a clean strike. This kept on for some minutes.
While it looked like both opponents were at a stalemate, the truth was painfully obvious to the Lower Class elite who fought bravely.
'Shit… this is already dragging on for too long!'
Since the start of the match, he had been at full power to match Richard's speed as much as possible. That was how he was able to give the opponent such a hard time both in evasion and offense.
Unfortunately, a person could not go all out forever!
Sooner or later, they would give in to exhaustion… and Jerry was already feeling it in his body. He couldn't last much longer.
'Damn, at this rate…' He glared at his opponent who just seemed to gleefully stare back at him.
Richard, of course, knew Jerry would soon fall from exhaustion. If he just stalled for a bit more time, the Lower Class boy would naturally lose. However…
pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ0ᴠᴇʟ '… That won't be humiliating enough for him!'
With that in mind, Richard's mind brought up something sadistic and downright dangerous. His lips curled in excitement as he smiled at the pitiful target who was charging straight at him.
'Now, then…'
