Rowan's Berserker technique was at the Earth grade, but with his current strengths, he no longer found it suitable enough, and he sought to upgrade this Aspect, and what better method to refine his abilities than battle. He could easily kill Dorian using his Serpents, but that was not the main reason he was on the moon.
With four pillars of consciousness and the new abilities granted by his second bloodline he was about to play a game worthy of an Empyrean of his capabilities, and Rowan discovered that he liked this game. Living was not enough anymore, he wanted to thrive!
Lets the game begin!
He wanted to draw someone out; Dorian was just the bait.
Each of the doppelg?ngers used different Berserker techniques, and although they could only use one at a time, their perfect synchronicity covered any flaws that might have resulted from that action, and their deaths brought a freezing blast holding Dorian in place, and he could see the frustration and uneasiness growing inside the heart of Dorian.
After a few minutes, Rowan frowned, not because of the performance of his doppelg?ngers, they were doing spectacular for although the technique was still at the Earth level, it was now powered by Rowan enhanced bodily essence at the Rift State, and his more powerful Aether, so it was at least ten times stronger than when he last used it in battle, and with four copies of himself all working in synchronization, Dorian was getting pummeled, which was the reason Rowan frowned, Dorian was retreating and fighting far from his peak.
A swing from the great sword of one doppelg?nger sliced a path through Dorian thick red hair, and they floated away into space buffeted by the shockwaves of the ongoing battle.
Rowan thought it was time to elevate the stakes, "You can do better than this Dorian." and with a burst of Telekinesis Rowan ripped Dorian's blade from the place he discarded it, and began running his hands down its length. "This is lighter than I thought."
"Damn you!" Dorian exploded, and like a supernova, a blast of flame erupted from his body, instantly vaporizing the Combo Attack Avatars, the flames even reached Rowan, but a shield of Telekinesis held it at bay.
"Get your fu*king hands off my lady!"
"Wait…" Rowan assessed the screaming Dorian with flames shooting out from his body as if he were a Sun God, "Don't tell me you mean it literally? Damn Dorian you are hardcore, how do you fuc.."
