Logarius VS Eyepatch Girl
Collab by RabidAnubis & Cinderella Man
The woman with an eyepatch approached Logarius, and then pointed a single finger at him.
"You are Logarius aren't you?"
Regardless of the answer, the girl would follow up, "Well, prepare to be erased. I will shuffle your insides like this deck of cards."
She produced a deck of cards from seemingly nowhere and started shuffling them in her hands, and then turned around and the edges of the cards became red.
After that, she extended her arm and started throwing the cards at Logarius.
The cards were now extremely sharp, able to cut cleanly even through bones. Something Logarius would learn first hand if he did not dodge.
Having spent a good portion of his time out of class sitting out in the courtyard molding little statues with the rare metal equivalent of Play-Doh, Logarius was entirely surprised by the approaching woman.
He convinced himself that she was just going to tell him off for some reason, which lead to further surprise when he found out that she was here to.. erase him?
Logarius' surprise wasn't able to properly settle, as nearly immediately after the threat was lobbed at him a deck of cards began to fly at him one by one. Figuring that he would likely get more than just a papercut if those cards hit him, Logarius did some admittedly frantic rolling so as to avoid the volleys of razor sharp gambling tools.
Reaching into the bag at his side and throwing the remaining chunks of metal on the ground to create a line, Logarius' teeth began to glow as he used both hands to cleave through the ground absorbing the ground of the courtyard into the pieces of various metals to create liquid gold which bubbled in his hands, glowing brilliantly as it formed from the other materials.
Logarius took a hot second to form the gold into a blade, a pretty lopsided blade, but a blade all the same.
The magician giggled, laughing at the blade. "Can't even do that right? I think I'll win this one!" Eyepatch pulled out another deck, and smiled mischeviously.
She fired 10 cards again, this time being sure to spread them out in such a way to make them harder to dodge. Her job was to erase, and she sure wasn't going to make it easy on him.
Deciding to forgo the blade entirely, Logarius returned the blade to liquid form and quickly manipulated the mass of gooey gold back and forth using lithe, sweeping hand movements to capture the cards within the blob.
After capturing the cards headed directly at him, he dropped them to the ground and began to fire tiny, thin spikes of gold at Eyepatch while strafing to her left.
Eyepatch tried to maintain distance, running rightwards and dodging the golden spikes with desperation. She called upon five cards that had passed Logarius up, and fired five from where she was now. He would be caught between them if he didn't do anything.
His eyes shot back and forth, taking note of the cards closing in on him from both sides. Logarius stopped firing off the spikes and decided instead to coat either side of both arms with the thickest layer of gold he could muster with what he had. Then he attempted to either catch or deflect the cards flying towards him using the makeshift 'gauntlets.'
The cards buried themselves deep into the gold, but simply were not sharp enough to penetrate the gold he had summoned. "You'll have to fight back eventually!" Eyepatch spun, firing further shots straight for her newest target. She hoped that the gold would slow him down, and that he couldn't keep the gauntlets moving forever. She aimed for the harder to protect areas: the eyes and the feet.
Without much of a second thought, Logarius held his arms up over his face in a protecive manner so as to avoid being struck with the incoming cards but quckly realized that he had left his lower body open to attack.
The cards collided with his golden arms, failing to penetrate the thick shell. But his unprotected feet were a different story. The five cards aimed at his lower body easily tore through the tops of his feet and his calves. Blood sprayed. "See? Now you can't run anymore!" She said this with a cheerful tone that suggested she was having a genuinely good time.
Logarius dropped his arms and let the gold drip off of him, reduced to a liquid form again as he began to process the pain sprouting in his lower body. Worse than the teeth? Probably. Probably worse than the teeth. He set his sights on the golden spikes that were lodged into the ground, and lightly gestured to resume manipulation of them.
He grinned weakly as he attempted to glob as much liquid gold as he could onto the girl's arm as he said, in more meek of a tone than he'd have liked: "Who said I was trying to run?"
She screeched, running away from her own golden arm. "GET THIS OFF OF ME!" She stopped her assault, instead sending her cards desperately in an attempt to cut the gold goo off
Taking care to not get hit by the frantic card spray, Logarius charged a large globule of liquid gold at her feet, trying to catch her off guard.
Considering her panic, she failed to dodge, now acquiring more golden goo. "ICKY ICKY ICKY! GET IT OFF ME!" She tossed her entire deck in front of her, summoning 10 card squads flying at her advesary in a desperate attempt to cut him down.
He assumed a lowered pose, and swept his hands across the ground in front of him, frantically creating a small wall of gold out of the material below him so as to avoid being diced up.
The cards were stopped, and the girl was starting to realize this was hopeless. Her feet were trapped, and one of her arms was wieghed down. She fired a few more cards, but eventually fell backwards. "Owch! How could you hurt a lady!" She decided to changed tactics, firing cards around the wall in an arc in order to reach behind it.
"I mean it's not particularly my choice when you try to kill MEEEeeE!" Logarius' response was cut off by the realization that she was applying basic arcs to her strategy, ruining his plan entirely. He lifted the tiny wall of gold off of the ground and over his head, spinning it around in his hands to deflect/drop the cards to the ground.
"Still not the chivalrous thing to do!" Eyepatch started gigling manically, summoning cards on the other side of him and sending them for his back.
Logarius attempted to roll out of the path of the cards, but winced almost as soon as he began to lower his body, and instead opted to return the wall to a liquidous form and catch them within it's gooey form. Looking at Eyepatch from his position, he decided that it wasn't worth it to extend it longer than it needed to be.
He charged more liquid gold onto her, casing her other arm as well as the rest of her uncovered body, leaving just her face uncovered as he hardened the gold back into solid form.
"GET THIS STUFF OFF ME YOU~" Several words followed this statement. However, Longarius had to figure out what he was going to do with her. After a few moments of panic, she winked at him with her remaining eye. "You know ... I am a little into this ..." If magic wouldn't win her the duel, there were other methods. "Your magic could work wonders if you wanted to play ..."
"..u..uuuuuuuuh.." Logarius' jaw hung slightly, as his previously perfectly functioning brain decided to turn it in for the day. This wasn't real right? He was actually in his room, sleeping, and having a weird nightmare about someone that he'd seen in passing. Of course, then he tried to walk forward and found himself falling to a knee, and wincing as his skinny, sliced up legs slapped some sense back into him.
She realized her plan was failing. "I wonder if something else around here is as hard as gold" More was neccessary. She spoke this in an adorably innocent manner.
He looked up at her, with his head tilted to its side. "Well, actually, some things around here are much heavier. Alchemy is an odd thing because sometimes you try to make something and end up with a completely unrelated side-product!" Logarius gestured to the ground. "Takes a good bit of this, to make a bit of gold. Luckily there's a lot of it here. There's also the chunks of iron, and other various transitional metals- ...wait. That's not what you meant, is it?"
"How about you come over here and turn something on besides by education with that mouth of yours." Another wink.
"...er, well. I..I dont' think these should be in any part of your body." He nervously gestured to his gold teeth, trying to shut down the situation.
"Kiss me you fool!" If she could get him distracted, she could still win this ... her face was flushed red with embarrasement. She planned to bite his golden teeth out if she could.
"AAAAAaaaaaaaa-!" Through a combination of exhaustion, embarassment, and the pain consistently shooting through Logarius' feet, after hearing that exclaimation, he essentially passed out. If one stared hard enough, they'd swear they saw steam coming from his now reddened ears.
"....." As with every other battle, Rollanda had been nearby watching everything.
None other battle, not even the one with the girls way too attached to each other, had gone quite as spectacularly as this one. Or as funny.
"H-Hey! Don't leave me hanging, idiot!" The girl struggled.
Rollanda shook her head and headed over to where the Eraser and Logarius were.
Now, she could fix even a dead person, but she most definitely was not suited to take golden apart.
She readied her phone and turned around for a bit,
"Hello, Yuri? Yuri Volkov? Ah, yes. You see, I'm in a bit of a pinch... Great. I'm in the courtyard with a girl encased in golden. I'll take the other guy to the infirmary in the meanwhile. Much appreciated." Then she hung up and took Logarius between her arms.
"I'll keep an eye on him during the Magus Games. Something tells me he will be a lot of fun."She then started walking away.
"HEY! DON'T LEAVE ME HERE, BITCH! HEEEEEEEY!"
