"Elder Nagrom, I'm sorry for calling you a senile old bastard, please send Norox into the beloved 'Lilith' I would like him to have a final sparring match with me before I go," I screamed out into the infinite transparent space.

But I still got no answer, I had something in mind that probably would have worked but only the thought of doing it for the old man was sickening, but if wanted to test out if I could hold my own against Norox.

So I got on my knees a"Elder Nagrom, My apologies for saying such rude things to you, please forgive me I was in the wrong it would never happen again to you" After some minutes of submitting to the cruel geezer I couldn't help but think that if my friend Alex saw me he would laugh at me to the point where I would slap him out of annoyance.

But it looked like what I did worked because the dwarf's voice filled the white space,

"Kid, please stop this nonsense it's damn cringy even for me. I was just brewing some tea, so I blocked the connection between Lilith and me because I wanted to relax, but anyway ill send Norox in there now." and as he said Norox was soon just a few meters in front of me

"You want to fight some more," the nix said stretching its arm in the air "Yes, I got stronger after doing some quests," I told, the nix answered with a nod.

Norox figure flashed in black light and he was now centimeters away from me, he raised his right arm and soon flames surrounded his hand and now formed into a claw of flames, the nix now swung his arm downwards but then I immediately sidestepped sluggishly because of my lack of footwork training.

I could see the attack because the more agility you had the easier it is to see fast attacks, I could thank Scaredycat's agility buff for this. I attempted to stab him in the side, but he jumped back and avoided it.

Norox looked at me surprised but soon his white lips curled into a smile "looks like you got a lot stronger after just a few hours, and by the way, we brought your friend inside, did you seriously forget someone outside" that's when he popped out in front of me with the same black light following him,

he then attempted a direct kick to my face with the black light now flowing out of his leg but I ducked I could still feel the air pressure from the Nixie's kick. I then transported myself 50m away using Scaredycat.

"I'll come at you with more force now."

Norox said, the shiny-silver daggers appeared from both his pitch-black hands and his right eye turned red the left-eye and lips were the only things that stood unchanged. The daggers were now cloaked in a thick red light and the nix one-stepped towards me but this time I couldn't react because of the speed behind it even

with Scaredycat activated, he threw his left dagger at me and it ended up stabbing my left shoulder. I screamed in pain, the dagger inside my shoulder forcefully pulled itself out and reverted to Norox's left hand and I screamed again, before I knew it he one-stepped again and then attempted to kick me straight in the face, and this time he succeeded.

The insane force of the kick sent me flying and nosebleeding almost instantly "Aaaagh," I roared in pain. My blood painted the transparent floor, I was somehow still standing, but just barely and my face stung from the kick. I couldn't do anything I didn't have any combat skills nor special abilities except the sword I have now.

Norox's figure now flashed in blacklight like before, and he raised his right-dagger in the air and was about to pierce my heart so I closed my eyes out of instinct and fear and stabbed him right in the chest. I could feel the longsword pierce through his skin.

Norox spat blood on the floor, and I searched his face to see any sign of him being in pain, but I didn't find any sign except blood on his side lips. Norox looked at the sword that pierced his chest then looked up at me and smirked "Did you get your hopes high" he then forcefully pulled the sword out his he then spat up blood again.

Out of fear of what he could do, I jumped several meters back to keep my distance. I couldn't move my left arm, so I needed to manage to fight one-handed.

Norox's hole from my stab was still there but after some seconds it looked like he started to concentrate something at the point I stabbed him after some few seconds of him concentrating, the wound I had inflicted was gone "Regeneration" I said out loud, how unfair I thought icily.

The red aura around his two daggers disappeared and shortly after that thousands of lightning balls were in the air around the nix. He then looked straight at me and said "You gave me a little trouble, I think you can get far stronger in a few days or weeks. I'm excited to see how strong you get. Or maybe you're never going to make it to my level"

Then the lightning sphere's started shooting straight in my direction, I tried to deflect them by using scatter slice, but

the sword broke after hitting just one lighting ball, and after that tons of lightning balls shot through my body and I looked down

at myself to see holes throughout my whole body. Looking down at myself was the last thing I did before I blacked out and found myself back at the dwarf's place.
