Why thank you~ You're not too hard on the eyes either. -appears with only a single blade in hand as she pulls a pair of gauntlets from her pocket dimension and secures them on her forearms. Each gauntlet is marked with two transmutation circles, each with the circle for Destruction. Both are made of heavy Valyrian Steel, with very soft cushioning inside them. They also connect directly to Tari's magic reserves, origin, circuit, greatly increasing the ease in which she can take in surrounding mana as well as make the effort of breaking down spells a fast process. Tari takes a moment to polish her blade before placing the tip on the ground, and resting her hands on the pummel, waiting for Genesis' next move.- Your move.

-he throws down two cards face down on the floor before teleporting behind Tarianna and smacking her towards the cards-
-Quickly analyzing the situation, Tari picks up on the fact of him holding cards and concluding that those are his weapon. She immediately began to trace out what his next action would be and deduce that his cards would work great as a distraction as well, and might toss them to catch her off guard in a feint, and get behind her to launch his actual attack, so the moment he tossed his cards, Tari made firm her stance, and as he appeared behind her, she kicked off the ground, using her small stature to slide underneath him, while also destroying the ground, disrupting whatever trap he had set, and the moment she's behind him, she kicks forward, using Focus Power and Critical Over along with her passive enhancement to greatly increase the force in which she kicked off, obliterating the earth beneath her and tackling Genesis from behind, launching them both at supersonic speeds out of the church and into the country/forest outside of the city. Now outside, she uses her alchemy to draw in vast amounts of mana and slows the air molecules over the area down considerably, cooling the region and creating a dense fog in her area. At the same time she uses her other hand to generate extreme heat, jumping the atmospheric instability over the region incredibly. The Resulting extreme CAPE along with the rich and moist atmosphere generates a strong thunderstorm in which frequent lightning and torrential rains and large hail are present. In the mere second that she adjusts all these conditions right before the storm erupts, Tari dives into the mirror World through the relatively small fog at the time, falling completely out of Genesis' sight as the rains begin to fall and the thunder begins to roar.-

-lifts up his and and the two cards before come flying to his hand- Reverse Polarity -drops a card on the floor and the damage he just took is reversed and increases his defense and life force as a result-
-Due to the torrential rains and abundant, large hail, a dense hail fog envelopes the area along with the rainy mist from the rain coming down on the heated ground and air from the set up. Due to the lack of visibility, Tari activates her Mystic Eyes to keep tabs on Genesis as she slips in and out of the mirror world, placing magic circles to keep the heating up enough to render the storm long lived. After placing the circles, Tari remains in the mirror world, watching Genesis closely. Seeing his lack of damage indicates to her that he either did something in the moment she was setting up her arena, or he has greater durability that she anticipated. Weighing the options, she decided that the former was the most likely. She then thought back to the cards he tossed. Combining it with her conclusion that they are likely his weapon, she figured that they may have also been used to restore his injuries. After coming to this conclusion, Tari went into though of about how tackle him. She immediately thought to her 50 swords in distant orbit, but figured that they'd be best for when she really got him off guard, as attacking with them prematurely will prove ineffective while he's on high alert. She needed to distract him somehow. She first though of using one of her blades as a distraction, but then thought that his ability to sense others might be a decent level...but wait. If they are a decent level, that means she should attack first. Bring all of his focus on her. And the perfect way to do that would be through mirror warping, attacking from several directions to keep his senses focused on her, and the moment he's focused, she'll bring down the blades. Being that they have no presence of their own, they should remain insensible to Genesis, and their movement is very swift, and cuts through the air effectively, producing minimal compression, allowing for little ability to feel as they approach until the last nanosecond, right when they're a fraction of a millimeter from cutting their flesh. Tari agrees with herself on the plan, drawing Lucifer and blitzes at Genesis, gliding along at highspeed with Crimson Wings as she cuts down on him, drawing Lostvayne in the process.-

-stands in place as Tarianna travels towards him, as she about to cut him a man appears in front of him with a giant shield. The man takes the brunt of Tarianna's attack and sends her flying away by taking on her force and sending it back at her amplified-
-Being that her blade possesses destruction alchemy and the ability to break down magical constructs such as barriers and the such, Tari's blade cleanly slices through the shield with no effort and cleaves the man in two as she then has four clones split off of her and rush Genesis, but refrain from attacking. All the meanwhile the storm continues to grow in intensity, the rain and hail becoming heavier, the winds stronger, as it lurks just outside the city, whom remains dry.-

-shield is not magical and exists as a separate entity entirely despite the fact it may have come as a result of magic meaning Tari is sent back-
-Upon being Knocked back, Tari falls into the Mirror World and blitzes out from behind Genesis as she draws Excalibur. At the same time, her clones also use Mirror World to warp behind Genesis' defenses and rush at him until he's completely surrounded.-
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
Heh, you're quick. -dissipates as light and reforms high into the sky- Faster the light though? Maybe not.
I guess we're both as fast as light then. -As Tari says this, she emerges to Genesis' left, with the other four clones doing the same around him. As they slash, magic spills out of the edges, flying at him razor sharp, converging upon his point.-

-read the attack with kenbunshoku and casts five balls of light across the battle field just before the clones reach him, he is hit by the magic however and as a result in sliced and sent into the floor-
-Seeing the balls of light cast, Tari puts herself on high alert as she swings down Excalibur upon Genesis, shouting the blade's name, and shooting down a nuke of holy magic where he lay.-
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
-the explosion occurs and Genesis' head pops out of one of the floating orbs of light- Peek-a-Boo
-Tari floats there, looking over at Genesis, dropping Excalibur into her pocket dimension and taking out Lucifer once again- I see. It's of no concern. -angles the blade in Genesis' direction.-
-Tari gazes upon Obelisk's overwhelming stature as the lighting strikes behind him, the thunder rumbles, the wind howls, and the rain falls in biblical proportions.- You really fit this setting. -looks over at Genesis- Can I have this after I kill you?
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
-balls of light gather around Tarianna and attach themselves to her-
-using doors of the mirror world, Tari simply steps out of the ring of light.- What's this? Oh and if you were expecting those to follow me, sadly only things I allow can come into the mirror world with me. Now what exactly is this big guy supposed to do?
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
-lifts up his arm and Obelisk dissipates into a blue energy which swirls around Genesis-
-sighs as the rain runs down her face, before suddenly vanishing within the misty fog. Using the speed she attains in the Mirror World, and the speed at which she can move about from door to door, Tari Blitzes Genesis from seemingly all directions.-
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
-one of the cards in his hand dissipates into a blue energy, triggering the trap card Magic Cylinder -Tari's attack is negated as the damage she would have done is then inflicted onto herself. As Tarianna is stunned by the effects of her own bombardment, Genesis appears in front of her at light speed and punches her with his Obelisk fist, crushing her into the ground-
-Caught by surprise with the Magic Cylinder, Tari is knocked back by her attack, and due to the distraction, Tari is caught off guard when Genesis comes up to attack her, leaving her only enough time to block the attack with her Crimson Steel protected arms and is launched towards the ground, but manages to perform an aerial recovery and lands on her feet, cratering the earth beneath her. The shock of the punch leaves her numb, though the Crimson Steel negated the damage.- Tch. -Tari makes her stance firm and launches herself back at Genesis with sword in hand, but doesn't slash at him.-
Genesis-member of Black Faith // Testament -NPC
-travels upwards as light to avoid Tarianna's slash before knocking her down with a kick and throwing two cards underneath her-
-The moment Genesis reforms above her to back away, Tari shows a small grin as a blade flying in at hypersonic speeds immediately impales Genesis through the back and out his abdomen, and at the same time Tari warps through the blade and grabs Genesis' face, using focus power and critical over to hold a firm grip on him, and uses her power to throw him down to the Surface.-
I doubt it's ever crossed your mind, but have you ever wondered where that Excalibur attack went -small smile as she snaps her fingers, the water on Genesis' body turning into gates to the mirror world, unleashing the power of Excalibur directly on his body.-
