The Salamander kept up her vicious blows, her body tensed and ready. "COME AT ME LIKE YOU MEAN IT THIS IS LIFE OR DEATH!"She retched showered in blows, her body taking a beating from the hits as she grunted, her body was getting slower to react as wounds piled on, not from lack of trying but from lack of ability, this was going to hurt for a while.

Feferi knew it, which is just why she used the pain, allowed it to fuel her body, tears streamed down her cheeks and she felt them hiss as they evaporated, her body left with burns and scorchs all over until she slammed the longsword into the ground, watching as the ground cracked, but she acted quickly, swinging herself around on the hilt, the tip of her foot slamming hard into the temple of the mythical beast, hopefully the last blow that was needed as she pulled her sword free before leaping back to one of the larger platforms.

🌀
She hissed hitting the ground, tired and spent, she took a few seconds before fusing the ground together with heat, "Not bad for... for a girl with no elements." She let out a relieved sigh, standing and walking to Feferi before simply... popping right into her head. Her voice coming from within, "Huh, so that's who you are. Lets see your sword skill is... yeesh! That's pretty bad, not even gonna be subtle, no heavenly arts? No cursed sword arts?" She sighed inwardly, "Tell Roxanne we're picking up her apprentice and the dragon she mentioned earlier before we head to Undine, I'm going to need at least that long to teach you."

She sighed as she heard the scolding, "I started training like two weeks ago! Give me a break!" she snapped in annoyance before sheathing her blades, only to slot the ring into place on her finger, climbing out of the cave at a slow pace. "And give Roxanne a break, she's got a wife to worry about now." she growled under her breath, not caring that it was her place to inform the other of, the stupid fox should have expected it honestly!
2015-03-09 09:55:38 -
🌀
She giggled, "Stupid fox huh? Should I mention you thought that?" Oh good she can hear that now. "And really, what do you expect? The last time someone came to claim all four of us it was Heinrich, and he was a HELL of a man. Came up with two cursed sword techniques by himself. Only two made by a human, element spica and quadruple giga. Of course, I can teach them, but you'll need the others for them." She sighed wistfully, "Oh Heinrich's days, the world seemed so much brighter and more jovial! Even if war was fast approaching. The people just seemed so much more... lively."

"Great now I've got a granny thinking about the past like it was so amazing... The past had a massive fucking war, lady, and one's coming again." she snapped right back at her, "And as for the element spica, I've seen it, Aradia tried to use it on me only for me to end up getting the lead in the situation, and I haven't done much training before now, so lay off me you judgemental bitch." she growled before emerging from the cave, pulling her helmet from her head and cracking her neck as she let her hair flow out while approaching the camp... Along the way she might have decided to hide her presence with water and her smell with wind in the hopes of watching Roxanne in a bit of an awkward situation.

And Salamander caught on, "HEY! You want my poser? You better keep a close relationship, because the closer you are to an elemental the more potent you are with their power." She hmphed, "So watch your tongue if you want to get the most out of me." She hissed, Tamamo was buried several feet in the mountain still pulling away minerals for her foxes to cart off. Any view of her would sadly be in the dark. Her ears twitching at the clanking of metal out of the cave, "Oh good, you're alive."
2015-03-09 10:15:50 -

The woman sighed, leaning against the mountain before nodding, "Yep... The elemental's in me now, and she's in love with that other hero, the one that came before and the first one to apparently do all this... Having fun looking for ore to get in the good books and impress the wife?" she asked, not even joking as she placed the helmet down on the ground, cracking her neck several times before leaning back once again, a groan escaping form her lips from the sheer amount of pain she went through just now... "And is there some way that I can beat up this masochistic bitch? As she seems to get excited when she's getting beaten from what I've noticed... Might be a good way to get on her good side."
2015-03-09 10:19:10 -
🌀
And Salamander pops out of her head, "Not in love with him, or anyone else and as a warrior the thrill of battle excites me, I wouldn't expect a noble to understand." She huffed lightly, "Roxanne we're picking up your apprentice and the dragon so I have time to teach her swordsmanship." Roxanne nods and gets out of the tunnel she made, foxes clearing out the remainder of the mountain as she got her bearings, "We'll stop in Yamatai for the night, free room and board since you're with the 'great fox spirit' over there." She chuckled. "As for getting on my good side? Pay attention when I'm training yoy, we don't have long and we're sharing living space now." She sighed, "During training I may need control of your body to show you a move before having you try it, sound good?"

Feferi gave a nod as she heard the command, not even arguing as she listened quietly, really these days all she did was follow as no one ever asked her where she wanted to go first considering the fact that she apparently knew nothing next to others... Which while true it still hurt!
2015-03-09 10:31:05 -
🌀
She sighed popping back into Feferi's head, "And another good tip is to not call ne a bitch." She huffed indignantly, "Really I'm going to lend you my power and you insult me twice!" She gives a sigh, "Is there something you want to tell me? Because you can bet every other spirit will test you too." She folds her arms now appearing in Feferi's mind's eye much... smaller. "Just don't lose to Sylph, she'll probably let you try again, but just... don't. She's literally the weakest spirit if you want respect from any self respecting monster, do not lose to Sylph."

She sighed as she listend to the scolding before shaking her head, a little tired... More than a little, "Sorry, sorry... I just... keep being told to do more and more and keep being compared to great heros of days past and... It's just tiring and it makes things that much harder to deal with... I'm only human and I can only take so much in such a short amount of time." she explained, letting her defensive walls drop in a way they only ever did around Rose...
2015-03-09 11:05:35 -
🌀
She stared, "You're training to be a hero and a monarch, of course it's tiring. You need to learn to delegate things out." She sighed, "Look we're comparing because this isn't something that happens every day, you know?" She mused, "Last time was six hundred and two years ago. Heinrich was such a cute bright eyed boy. Smelled... a bit like you actually. Probably doesn't mean anything." She helped warm the girl's body, "Eat well we'll make a warrior princess out of you yet."
2015-03-09 11:12:03 -

"I know, I just needed a to vent a little..." she murmured before smiling as she felt the warmth flow through her body, forcing herself to stand with a groan, "And is it me, or is the fierce, battle-scarred warrior trying to cheer up the poor new ruler?" she teased, not at all bothered by it, in fact, if anything she was cheered on by those little encouragements and the better comparison that she got. with a groan, she placed the helmet on her head again before scooping Roxanne up into her arms, carrying her back to the camp that they set up before setting her down and giving a pat on her bottom, gesturing to the tent, "Have some alone time instead of working so hard, Roxanne." she commanded before heading off in search of a glade, one where she could relax and meditate so that the elemental could tutor her how to use their element.
2015-03-09 11:19:53 -
🌀
Roxanne scurries into the tent to be 'alone' with her rings, as she finds the glade, Salamander speaks up, "Okay listen up, I'm only going to say this once. Fire is basically the most powerful element there is, a master of it with cursed sword techniques is damn near unstoppable. You see cursed sword techniques use up energy, but you call me out? All the energy you used up is back, I fire you up so to speak." She clears her throat, "That being said, as an added bonus I can set those swords of yours ablaze."
2015-03-09 11:24:54 -
●
She gave a nod as she took a seat in the middle of the clearing, closing her eyes and settling in, "I see, so it's a case of each elemental I control, the more benefits I gain from them, so you can replenish the cursed blade energy while I'm guessing that Undine would heal?" She questioned, curious to know if she got that bit even close to right in terms of it. "And then there's the question of using the element in general battle... How do I do that?"
2015-03-09 11:31:09 -
🌀
She snorted, "Undine? Heal? No. Undine helps with a Serene mind and amplifies it. Easier to dodge and your attacks become fiercer, and you usually find weak spots." Sounds like crits, "Sylph's a nice girl, protects you from ailment and illness, makes you quick enough to not miss and when mastered? Hits happen twice." She ponders, "Gnome makes you stronger, physically, skin gets tougher, good against wind." She stretches out, "For using it in battle? I'm in your head now Princess, you want me? Call me."
2015-03-09 11:36:13 -
●
"Don't call me princess, I'm... I mean, I technically am one but I don't like it! I left that empire behind a long time ago, it's baroness now!" she stated firmly before taking a deep breath. "Salamander, I call you to assist me."
2015-03-09 11:38:07 -
🌀
And there goes the heat and the rush, energy flooding into Feferi, "You can just think it you know, I do hear your thoughts. So will the others so uh, shit talk them now if you actually want to get away with it." She snickered, it was nice to talk like this with someone, she'd always been the last, less time to talk, "And if you meet a dragon girl, wears armor, has blue scales, you be nice that's Mindfang, took her in when she was 5 saw her potential, now she's one of the six strongest monsters on the planet. Not counting Black Rose, if she's sided with God she's in heaven."
2015-03-09 11:43:59 -

"I'm not stupid enough to do anything like that, you clearly picked up on my memories of previous conversations that I've had with Roxanne, such as the location of her apprentice, so that implies the other's would be able to dig through my memories and find where I insulted them... Instead, I'll keep those thoughts to myself." She informed the voice in her head as she tried to work out the security she could gain in her mind, "So I take it you power up my speed and attack to a degree?"
2015-03-09 11:48:29 -
🌀
She snorts, "Fire to the blades, renew your energy, back when Heinrich was still learning, he couldn't heal himself while I was active at first." She cleared her throat for a moment, "Speaking of, that meditation you do, try infusing it with just a little bit of the energy in you, watch what happens." She grinned, oh if Feferi was like Heinrich her wounds were about to heal.
2015-03-09 11:52:06 -
●
"Which form of energy?" she asked curiously, in all honesty, she didn't know which one specifically, so instead of fire of air of water, she removed the ring and tried to channel the holy energy instead, curious if that was what the woman was asking her to do, as honestly, she was clueless in most of these matters!
2015-03-09 11:53:53 -
🌀
And instead of healing her, the holy energy burns, "Put it back on put it back on!" She groaned the most annoyed look on her face, "The energy I filled you with, the same kind you use for cursed sword techniques, it's multipurpose, or was for Heinrich. Jeez girl, how many people have to tell you that stuff is going to kill you before you quit it?"
2015-03-09 11:58:26 -
●
She whined, putting the ring back on before letting out a groaning screaming as she flopped backwards, tears in her eyes, not from the pain, but from the fact that everyone assumed so much of her and told her things like she'd understand them, only to never give FULL details on the situation, and now she was being told off for it. "FUCK OFF!" she screamed, swearing she heard it echo and echo and echo. "You tell me to use an energy, I used it! No one ever told me that it would hurt me that bad! Why call it holy if it's not going to fucking heal! Holy is meant to fucking heal, isn't it?!"
2015-03-09 12:01:06 -
🌀
She sighs lightly, "Yes holy is supposed to heal and it /does/ the problem is holy is also supposed to come from a higher power. Your body is still human, holy energy isn't meant to flow through it the way you just tried." She sighed, "It's actually how Heinrich the angel killer was caught, he killed hundreds, their holy energy dousing him until it sunk in. His body started to fall apart as he himself became capable of killing angels without need for a special blade."
