Lightning Is the Only Way

Aris directly charged at Cera without any fanfare. His speed was incredible, and even though Cera had been prepared, it was still difficult for her to react to Aris' ridiculous acceleration. The only thing she could do was use the same acceleration technique to evade the attack.

Yet, this gave Aris the initiative, and he immediately charged after her. Cera realized that she couldn't continue like this. If she did, she would run out of Energy first. After all, Aris could simply feign an acceleration without using it. Due to the potential attack, Cera would need to use her own acceleration either way if she wanted to evade.

So, for the next attack, Cera decided to charge at Aris too. Both of them charged at each other, but it was hard for both of them to mount an attack because of their speed.

BANG!

Yet, Aris had made a gamble and attacked either way. If Cera decided to evade, she would be too far away to make use of that opportunity, but if she attacked, he would be able to hit her. Sure enough, Aris swiped Cera to the side with his claws.

CRRRR!

Cera's scales were powerful, and the claws could not penetrate them, but the attack still shook her insides. Aris followed up with another attack.

BANG! BANG!

Yet, Cera recovered quickly and rammed directly into Aris with her body before he could attack. Both of them were thrown into the distance due to the force of the collision.

BANG!

Another collision happened as both of them hit each other again. Then it happened another time and another time.

CRK!

But now, something happened that changed the dynamic. Cera had always charged at Aris with her shoulders while Aris charged forward with his claws to injure her. Yet, due to their defenses, Aris' claws and forearm broke. Bones were not as hard as the scales, and Cera managed to come out on top.

When Aris felt the broken bones, he sneered. In the next collision, he used his legs, hitting Cera on the shoulder again.

the fight became a scuffle, with both of them using all their weapons to injure the other. Their usual tactics didn't work anymore due to their scales. Normally, in order to break the defense of more powerful beasts, they would use their lightning. Of
