"Hmm, the increase in stats reduced. Should I actually get serious then?" Lucius whispered to himself, and upon hearing this Hannibal 'fainted'.

Hannibal thought himself a tactician... a thinker, he had no place being rag-dolled by the strongest creature in the camp, and probably this side of the forest.

"Hannibal are you okay?" Lucius asked, picking up his limp body.

"Guess he fainted from mental exhaustion," he whispered, before carrying him to the side. Little did he know of the little tactician's grin, and his 'tactical retreat plan'.

A few minutes later Pagan returned with Alpha.

"What happened to him?" Alpha asked, looking towards the 'unconscious' Hannibal.

"Mental exhaustion," Lucius replied, before explaining to Alpha what they were doing here.

"Training? I'm all in," Alpha replied quickly.

~Let's check his stats,~ Lucius thought to himself as he and Alpha walked toward the center of the arena.

"Alpha, have you been lifting rocks?" Lucius asked jokingly.

"Several, Captain," Alpha replied.

"Figures," Lucius whispered to himself, before Pagan gave the go.

Like his prior fights, Lucius rushed in to close the distance between them, funny enough, unlike Hannibal, Alpha did not activate his cloak, or try to run radiant energy through his body. He just rushed at Lucius as well.

As expected, Alpha went flying backward, losing the collision terribly. However, even as sap dripped from his mouth he stood up and rushed towards Lucius again.

And again Lucius sent him flying back. This went on several more times, and each time Alpha got slower and slower.

"You know you can use magic, right?" Lucius said, at this point feeling a bit of pity for Alpha. Though the 'undying' demeanor made him feel a little proud.

"But you haven't used a single spell yet," Alpha replied in between gasps.

"I'm bigger than you and have higher stats. We're training, I'm trying to make this as stimulating as possible," Lucius explained. And after a short internal battle, Alpha cast radiant healing on himself and rushed toward Lucius.

~A living tank,~ Lucius thought to himself as Alpha rushed him. ~The sad thing about tanks is that they lack maneuverability,~ he thought after, before side-stepping the initial rush, and using Alpha's own momentum to slam him into the ground.

"Interesting," a voice from the sidelines whispered. It would seem that Hannibal had 'woken up'.

Alpha's body shone with a soft blue radiance for a second, before he stood up, this time looking at Lucius with wary eyes.

Pagan gave the go, and once again Alpha rushed Lucius. Though this time he cloaked himself, increasing his speed mid-journey.

Lucius side-stepped the initial rush, however, Alpha could just barely keep up with his speed while cloaked, so he followed in his direction.

Instead of a throw, this time Lucius swept Alpha, sending him into the air, before grabbing and slamming him into the ground.

Though perhaps he had overestimated Alpha's strength and armor, as the latter was no longer moving.

~He's alive, just knocked out,~ Lucius thought to himself, sensing Alpha's presence with his earth sense.

~Well, he did get up a bunch of times,~ Lucius thought to himself before carrying him to the sidelines.

"Okay, now the both of you at the same time. This time I'm going to be a little serious since it's two against one," Lucius said.

Besides, Pagan was large enough to pose an actual threat to him, and with Pagan's magic, he wouldn't surive without trying.

Pagan opened up the bout with a high-powered solar beam, making sure to hide the crux behind his body to prevent Lucius from seeing where the attack would come from.

Lucius in turn put up a solar field, using a chunk of his solar reserves to completely nullify the super-powered attack.

The two then began throwing cantrips at one another, Lucius snapping his fingers with each one he sent out.

For a moment Hannibal stood in silence as the two attacked each other with seemingly masterful execution. He quickly picked up why they hid the crux behind their bodies, but he could not understand why Lucius was snapping his fingers.

From what he could tell, the winner would be the one with the larger reserves, but due to Lucius's snapping, most of his attacks failed, so even if he had the larger reserves he would end up losing.

~Why?~ Hannibal thought to himself, before putting up his radiant cloak and rushing towards Lucius. Even though he knew he would lose at close combat, so long as he distracted Lucius long enough, Pagan would finish things off.

Lucius began targeting Hannibal as well, now a little more mentally strained as he had to both deflect Pagan's attacks, and monitor both their movements.

Fortunately for Hannibal, Lucius's snapping made it easy for him to dodge, so it wasn't so difficult to cover the distance.

"Oi, you imbecile! It's a trap!" Pagan shouted, just now realizing that Hannibal wasn't aware of Lucius's nasty trick.

With that small distraction, a solar beam hit him right in the face.

And the now comfortable Hannibal who had been expecting a snap before the solar beam was hit square in the stomach. Both of them were defeated due to one second of distraction.

"Teamwork isn't easy," Lucius said as he walked towards the two.

"Pagan, you should've shared that information earlier... and that imbecile thing, do it again and I'll make you run around the entire outer camp 100 times," Lucius warned.

"And Hannibal, I don't blame you for falling for my childish trick, but even if you did get close, have you forgotten about my solar burst? Surely you would've found out about it while you had the solar index," Lucius said, turning to Hannibal.

Of course, Hannibal had seen the spells in the solar index while he had it, but because he had never gotten to the stage where he could perform them, they were stuffed into the back of his mind.
