- Show me! - shouted Rhuar while he opened his eye, showing a big red aura - Show me your spirit!

Leo didn't doubt to do the same as Rhuar, and while he knew he didn't have to use the trigger, he couldn't stop himself from doing it. He closed his eyes, searched the point, and talked to his spirit.

- Open... open... open! Let me see, now!

His aura then exploded in white, getting a surprise in everyone's eyes. The surprise in Rhuar's face didn't last long, replaced with a crazy smile.

- White? You really are special, Leonard! But that will not be enough! You have shown me your aura already, now show me your real power!

After saying that, some red tentacles seemed to appear from Rhuar's hand, soon converted into an uncountable amount of sparks, at the time he started to run towards Leo. Leo then got serious in his head, changing from a completely waste of spirit energy to a practical amount, and remembered what he learned about green magic, alchemy, to build a metallic barrier, made of interlaced metal bars, between him and Rhuar. The barrier was able to hold well against the hit, and all of the electric energy was dissipated into the ground. With a smile, Leo jumped back, while thinking of an effective way to fight against someone using red magic.

- You are good! - yelled Rhuar - I might even enjoy this! Show me more!

Leo almost didn't have time to stop the attack from Rhuar, who had suddenly jumped over the barried, and had to use wind magic to help himself jump back. Then he summoned earth around both his fists, and made the air around them burst into flames. While he started to run to where Rhuas was, Rhuar built energy barriers around his own fists, and also started to run. When they were near each other they punched at the same time, fist against fist, energy against energy. 

The collision made the energies explode, sending both them back a few meters. Rhuar was fast enough to use his magic to soften the fall, but Leo wasn't able to think the same, so he got hit in the back. When he tried to get up, the pain didn't let him, and he had to stay in the ground.

- You are good, Leonard. You lack training and experience, but you are indeed special. No wonder Andur decided to take the chance and made you do the test. As a note, from now on, remember: never go against a master with his own element. I could have easily made your fire turn against you, and burn you to death.

- Are you okay? - said a female voice near them - That hit in the back could have broke something. Let me look at it.

- It hurts... I couldn't get up. 

Leo could recognize the woman. She was in one of the High Bladir seats. Would that mean she was the silver master, the High Bladir of Eanel?

The woman opened his eye, and looked at Leo's body, or more specifically, inside it.

- There are a few things broken, but nothing I can't fix - said she with a smile - Actually there's few things I can't fix... can you roll a bit, and stay on your side?

With great pain, Leo managed to do what she asked, and felt tired just being in that position. The woman softly touched his back, and Leo could feel her magic flowing into his body, fixing it. After a few moments, the pain was gone, but while he did feel healed, his energy was still low. He got up from the ground, and noticed they were back to the normal room they were before, but now with only a few persons left in it. After a bit, his legs couldn't hold him anymore, and he was about to fall, but Andur grabbed him, and held him.

 - You will need some rest after this. After all, it was your first fight. You did well Leo, I didn't expect Rhuar to be so impulsive, but I also didn't expect you to hold up so well against him. Let's go.

Leo, helped by Andur, walked to the meeting point, where they found Ly waiting for them. After sitting a bit there and resting a bit, while Andur explained Ly what happened, they walked upstairs and used a portal to go back to their house. Leo was so tired he didn't even want to eat anything, so he just went to bed, and fell asleep almost instantly.
