When Aika brought up her magical shields, I used my skills in Wind, Darkness, and Light to attack her because my Dragon Fire and Dragon Lightning were too powerful and they would definitely destroy her shields without any competition.
However, I was impressed by Aika's shields because they were able to withstand my basic wind attacks as well as all of my darkness attacks. They were naturally overpowered by the light assaults due to the natural vulnerability Aika now possessed to the holy element, but they still put up a solid fight before they were defeated.
Rewrite, Rephrase and expand the paraTurning my gaze towards Aika's transformed body, which now boasted a figure almost as sculpted as Mina's and Miko's, I locked eyes with her as she smirked back at me. Her devil transformation and dedicated training over the past week had resulted in a remarkable transformation. Clad in athletic attire provided by Rias, she held a dark wooden staff adorned with a mesmerizing lilac jewel at its apex. This staff not only aided her spellcasting but also amplified the potency of her magical abilities.
"It's time to put your shields to the test, Aika-chan," I declared with a determined expression. "I want to gauge their strength and assess the range and versatility of your spell repertoire. Whenever you feel ready, let's begin."
As Aika conjured her magical shields, I utilized my Wind, Darkness, and Light skills to launch a series of attacks. I refrained from employing my Dragon Fire and Dragon Lightning, as their immense power would easily overpower her shields, leaving no room for a fair evaluation. Nevertheless, I was intrigued to witness the resilience and efficacy of Aika's defenses.
To my surprise, Aika's shields displayed remarkable durability, successfully withstanding my basic wind-based assaults as well as all of my darkness-infused attacks. They held their ground admirably, showcasing the impressive craftsmanship and magical prowess that went into their creation.
However, when my attacks took on a holy nature, fueled by the light element, Aika's shields exhibited their inherent vulnerability, eventually succumbing to the divine assaults. Despite their eventual defeat, it was clear that her shields put up a valiant fight, offering a formidable defense before their eventual breach.
I couldn't help but commend Aika for her proficiency in shielding magic. Her ability to withstand a variety of elemental attacks was commendable, and her resilience spoke volumes about her growth and dedication. It was evident that she had honed her skills diligently, capitalizing on her newfound devil form and the assistance of her enhanced equipment.
I offered Aika a smile of approval and nodded, maintaining a proud demeanor. "I must commend you on the quality of your shields, Aika-chan. However, there is always room for improvement. Our primary focus will be strengthening your defenses while also training you in the art of swift evasion in case your shields are unexpectedly compromised. Now, give it your all and expend all your magical power."
Aika's lips curled into a sneering grin as she confidently raised her staff. "Gladly, Ise-sama!"
Aika's initial attacks were straightforward yet effective. She unleashed bolts, blasts, and arrows crafted from pure mana, each striking with considerable force and dealing a noticeable amount of damage to my DP. However, my intrigue heightened when she transitioned into utilizing elemental magic, casting spells of fire, lightning, and wind.
She conjured flaming balls, crackling bolts of lightning, and swirling twisters of wind, each element adding a new layer of complexity and power to her assault. While I, being immune to these elemental attacks, remained unharmed, I couldn't help but appreciate the sheer intensity and skill with which Aika executed her spells.
Calculating the cumulative damage inflicted upon my DP, I estimated that Aika had successfully dealt an impressive 20,000 points of damage. This achievement was far from trivial, especially considering the amount of time she had dedicated to refining her magical abilities. It was evident that her training had paid off, enabling her to harness the elements with precision and unleash devastating attacks.
I regarded Aika with a mix of satisfaction and pride. "Well done, Aika-chan. Your magical prowess has grown significantly, and your repertoire of spells is expanding. Your elemental attacks showcased a remarkable level of control and potency. However, we will continue to refine your abilities, focusing on further strengthening your shields and incorporating advanced defensive maneuvers."
Aika's eyes gleamed with determination as she absorbed my feedback, ready to embark on the next phase of her training. It was clear that she embraced the challenge, eager to surpass her current capabilities and unleash even greater magical might.
As I observed Aika, her chest heaving with exertion, a sense of curiosity and admiration welled within me. "You have already mastered the use of three different elements?" I inquired, unable to conceal my intrigue.
Aika chuckled, a glimmer of pride evident in her eyes. "Indeed, I have delved into the intricacies of all five fundamental elements. Fire, Lightning, and Wind lend themselves to direct and forceful strikes, allowing me to unleash devastating offensive attacks. Earth, on the other hand, grants me exceptional defensive capabilities and enables me to manipulate the terrain for tactical advantage. And Water... Water possesses the power to restore and rejuvenate, a potent ally in times of healing and replenishment," she explained, her voice filled with a mix of confidence and enthusiasm. With each passing moment, it became increasingly apparent that her aptitude for elemental magic was truly remarkable.
I couldn't help but mirror her excitement, a spark of anticipation flickering in my gaze. "In addition to further strengthening your shield and evasion techniques, we shall focus on amplifying your reservoir of magical power and refining your ability to channel and wield it with utmost efficiency," I declared, envisioning the limitless potential that lay within her. "Aika-chan, mark my words, in the years to come, you shall stand as an unparalleled force on the battlefield."
Aika's face lit up with a victorious grin, her confidence radiating. "Only the finest for Ise-sama!" she exclaimed, her voice brimming with determination and unwavering loyalty.
Her words ignited a bout of hearty laughter within me, the sheer enthusiasm and unwavering devotion displayed by my companions filling me with immense pride. "Damn right," I chuckled, my eyes gleaming with anticipation for the challenges and triumphs that awaited us.
