Her hair began floating up as if she was under water and her gaze pierced through Elza. Her emerald eyes glowed faintly. "Very well . . . let's begin." A large magic circle flared into life directly beneath Meruin. [/quote] Elza grinned, in response to Meruins piercing glance, she could tell this was going to be a good fight. Deciding against a melee attack as she didn't know the nature of the magic circle she instead formed several shadow lances around her and hurled one at her curious to see Meruin's reaction to the attack.
