An art request by Justinosaur000 of my OC vs his.

After encountering a powerful adversary, Mal tells his friend to run away, that he will be fine taking on this powerful adversary. He lied... He only said that so they would run. However, now that he knows his friend is safe, he can let loose and fight at full strength.

Mal materializes a copy of two swords in his hands. He then smirks at the behemoth of a man in front of him and then says "You don't mind if I cripple you severely before you beat do you?"

No response...

"Very well... I am the shield that stands firm..."

His cross-shaped magic circuits then flared up as a wave of his aura whips around him like a powerful wind and he was epicenter of it. Yet his opponent approaches him unflinching, withnhis fiery red mace in one hand, like an ominous red torch of hellfire that would never be put out be his winds. Mal seemingly turns into a blur as he jumps towards the roof and sprung at the masked warrior, reinforcing his body to put as much punch into his strikes as possible.

Mal then uses his nameless black and white longswords and charged at him with a double overhead strike which was promptly parried. He was then kicked into a wall.

"S-such power. To be able to overpower me even when I reinforced and forcibly strengthened my body and then throw me away like a doll... What monster of a man am I fighting?!"

The man then gives him a solemn look. He then utters out "Sorry, I have mouths to feed under your blood... "

Mal then surges with mana once more as their weapons slam at each other, sending sparks flying. What will be the outcome? No one knows. The only thing for sure is that something WILL break.
