Oh, look who's pretending to be a god with that power. Let's see how divine you really are, huh?
the wasteland goes quiet as thunder comes close and strikes a nearby mountain creating a massive dust cloud which ThunderKnight uses to his advantage by teleporting behind you before the cloud settles. "Let's do this, if you wanna make a name for yourself, now's the time."
Very dramatic and very cheesy. I like it! This is actually kind of adorable! Eurus laughs at ThunderKnight, not appearing to be bothered by the strike whatsoever. Instead, Eurus seems more amused than anything else, laughing at ThunderKnight's bravery.
a soft breeze blows through the wasteland carrying with it a sound most would consider music as it travels past the laughing god before it fades away
Oh wow, music? That must be all it is...music. Eurus continues to laugh, completely unfazed by the display of power he just witnessed. Eurus stands up and stretches, looking around lazily before grinning again. His grin quickly turns into a smirk as an idea pops into his head. Hey, ThunderKnight, why don't we settle this like adults? With...a drinking game. Eurus raises an eyebrow at ThunderKnight and smirks.
"You're on." A bottle appears above his head spinning rapidly, ready for a drinking game.
Alright then. Eurus smiles at ThunderKnight, nodding slowly. Let's play! First one to drink out of the bottle loses. Do we have an agreement? Eurus raises an eyebrow at ThunderKnight, waiting for ThunderKnight to either agree or decline his offer.
ThunderKnight grabs a shot glass and fills it completely before throwing the bottle to shatter against the ground. The two stand still as lightning crackles above them once more, the anticipation hanging thick in the air. "For the win." He chugs the shot down without blinking.
Not bad. Not bad at all. Eurus watches as ThunderKnight chugs the shot down, a slight grin on his face. It seems that you're quite capable of holding your alcohol. You've even managed to keep the shot down without blinking. Impressive.
With the final drop of alcohol gone, ThunderKnight snatches up the broken pieces of the bottle, tucking them away. A soft breeze starts to caress the skin of ThunderKnight as he takes a moment to refocus, the energy from the alcohol slowly leaving his system. Silence once again takes hold.
Eurus leans against his throne, arms crossed, and sighs dramatically. Wow, look at you! The great ThunderKnight, chugging alcohol like a true god! Eurus chuckles and rolls his eyes, glancing over at ThunderKnight. You know, for someone who prides themselves on their power, you're really settling for the lowest common denominator when it comes to contests.
ThunderKnight looks to Eurus, his lips curving slightly upward into a soft smile before disappearing just as quickly as it appeared. Silence stretches out longer than usual between the two.
Well, what do you have to say for yourself? Do you have any words for me, ThunderKnight? Or perhaps you're just too busy being an empty vessel for the divine to actually have an opinion? Eurus raises an eyebrow at ThunderKnight, a slight smirk on his face as he waits for ThunderKnight to answer.
"It's fun to believe in god's."
Eurus chuckles and shakes his head. That actually might be the worst comeback I've ever heard. How about you put forth some more effort than that, ThunderKnight? I mean come on! You can do better than that! Eurus raises an eyebrow at ThunderKnight, waiting for ThunderKnight to reply to his challenge.
"Ah, and what should I put forth? Blood? Sweat? My tears?" ThunderKnight shifts slightly, his eyes flickering towards Eurus.
What about your dignity? You seem to be lacking enough of it as it is. Eurus scoffs and crosses his arms over his chest, leaning back in his throne and smirking. Or perhaps you're too much of a coward to even attempt any sort of challenge against me? After all, I do have quite the reputation. Perhaps you're afraid you wouldn't be able to handle the challenge and would embarrass yourself? Eurus leans forward slightly, raising an eyebrow at ThunderKnight as he waits for ThunderKnight to reply.
"Cowardice has no place in my heart." ThunderKnight says with a firm tone before looking away, trying to hide his emotions. A gust of wind sweeps through the area, rustling both Eurus' and ThunderKnight's hair as it passes.
Ah, now that's better. At least you have the decency to admit your fear. Cowardice isn't something anyone likes to be accused of. I suppose we can call this a draw then, yes?
There's silence yet again before ThunderKnight speaks. "We fight when we're ready, god."
And who decides when you're ready, hmm? You? Your precious ego? Or perhaps your nemesis, the great Eurus, the god of demons, who's heard all the rumors about you reaching divinity and decided to come and challenge you, the cocky little mortal that you are? Eurus smirks and raises an eyebrow at ThunderKnight, waiting for an answer.
"When my desire to become stronger surpasses my fear of death."
Eurus' smirk widens and he nods slowly. He seems impressed with ThunderKnight's response. Ah, so you're driven by ambition, eh? That's a good reason. I respect that. Eurus straightens himself up and clenches his fists, looking determined. Then let us fight! For the sake of our own pride! Let's see who's the better warrior here!
"Indeed!" ThunderKnight yells with excitement, launching into the air swiftly and gracefully. Time almost seems to bend around him as he zeroes in on Eurus.
Eurus watches quietly as ThunderKnight launches into the air, his eyes narrowed and focused on ThunderKnight. Once ThunderKnight is close enough, Eurus does nothing, simply standing there and waiting for ThunderKnight to make the next move.
With a burst of speed and electricity, ThunderKnight rushes in attempting to bring his blade down upon Eurus' shoulder. Sound travels fast; the metallic clang resonates through the area, echoing with its intensity.
Eurus doesn't even flinch when ThunderKnight brings his blade down upon his shoulder, the metal clanging together loudly. He smirks as ThunderKnight attempts the attack, his eyes flashing red for a moment as the impact sends sparks flying off of his arm. Eurus' facial expression never changes, remaining neutral despite the pain of the hit. Good try, ThunderKnight. But you'll have to do better than that to defeat me.
A sudden gust of wind kicks up debris and dust around the combatants, concealing them in a cloud of chaos. As fast as the wind picks up, it drops just as quick leaving the wasteland clear of any obstructions, the only sign of the brawl being the torn earth beneath their feet where ThunderKnight and Eurus now stand side by side.
Eurus watches silently as ThunderKnight unleashes his attack, his facial expression remaining neutral. Eurus watches carefully as the attack connects with his arm, sending sparks flying off of his skin. His arm begins to shake slightly due to the pain of the blow, but he doesn't make a sound. He smiles and looks over at ThunderKnight after he finishes the attack, crossing his arms over his chest and smirking. Impressive. I didn't think you had it in you, ThunderKnight. But you can do better.
Once again lightning cracks across the sky above them, the sound roaring through the land as both figures stand in front of each other. Moments later, a deafening blast rings out followed by the sight of flames consuming the wasteland floor mere feet away from both of them. No smoke rises from the destroyed ground. The heat of the explosion must have been so intense that it incinerated everything within its reach... everything but ThunderKnight and Eurus.
Eurus smirks as the explosion rocks the wasteland around them, watching silently as ThunderKnight unleashes his attack. He watches as the flames consume the wasteland floor, sending plumes of smoke rising into the sky. When the smoke settles, Eurus leans over and whispers to ThunderKnight, his voice full of sarcasm. Impressive, ThunderKnight. Is that your best attack? That was pathetic. I've seen babies with better aim. Try harder, sweetheart.
Dust clears to reveal Eurus and ThunderKnight facing each other again. Silently they size each other up, muscles tense, as they brace themselves for the ultimate clash. Suddenly, Eurus' brow furrows as he charges forward in a surge of green flames coursing along his body. However, a glint of steel catches his eye as he stops abruptly, realizing ThunderKnight has raised his sword.
Eurus smirks and crosses his arms over his chest, leaning back in his throne. He watches silently as ThunderKnight sizes him up, preparing himself for a clash. Once Eurus notices the glint of steel that ThunderKnight has raised, he frowns and narrows his eyes at ThunderKnight, his expression turning neutral once again. He raises his own hand, summoning a storm of purple lightning bolts to swirl around him as he prepares to face ThunderKnight.
