The Fallen King TAGS: Emperor Absolut
Lute's sleek black stealth ship broke the dense cloud layer above Tritek's sprawling jade central continent. He clutched the controls, both of his dark eyes skimming the dense greenery. The jungle stretched as far as he could see, broken up only by the curling veins of rivers and muddy brown blobs of lakes and swamps. A spine of mountains ran along the middle of it, branching off northeast where it shattered into an archipelago of hundreds of islands as it converged with the northern sea.
There wasn't really anywhere to land, not without damaging his ship. So, he brought the vessel to a hovering stop above the trees and swiveled it around, firing his plasma cannons. The liquid fire chewed up the packed forest, scorching out a sizable landing zone within seconds. The vessel set down in the conflagration and Lute rose from his pilot's seat.
The ramp behind him opened with a hiss, crunching onto the blasted forest patch below. The acrid scent of burning ozone and charred foliage rushed into his nostrils and he wrinkled his brow as he descended.
Everything was on fire. The stifling heat pressed against him, his lungs were choked with smoke. Clenching both fists he exerted his ki in a single concussive burst. It rippled away from him, flattening the fires and extinguishing them in an instant.
It wouldn't be long now. The Emperor would arrive and training would begin. The Fallen Demon King was glad for the distraction, the break from the uncertainty plaguing him since his battle with Tora No Seishin (Tora ) and his decision to shirk his dark powers--in favor of seeking a better path.
Moccasins crunching on blackened bramble, he marched forth and stopped at the edge of a nearby trickling stream. Kneeling before it, he studied his reflection in the waters. He looked aged, haggard even. His cheeks were sunken and his flesh pallid. The loss of his demonic power had been a grueling experience, much like any junkie who attempted to break their addiction. He couldn't sleep, couldn't eat. Even meditation was plagued by the sickening feeling and the ache in his body.
Pain dominated him now. But, it was fitting. A burden he would carry until the corruption was cleansed from his body.
A burden he deserved.

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
"Your Imperial Majesty, we have reached Tritek, your destination." a somewhat uninteresting small reptilian Xeno piloting the spaceship spoke through the microphone as the Imperial Wrath began to descend upon the thick atmosphere of the planet. There was, obviously, no place to land, especially not with a warship as large as this one, so, unlike Lute's spaceship, it remained suspended above the surface of the planet while the hatch at the bottom opened.
"Thank you! Let's go!" Absolut responded with enthusiasm as he leapt off his bed in the living quarters of the ship, grabbing the Sword of Greenskull resting at the wall and strapping it onto his back as he ran through the mostly empty corridors of the spaceship. After all that happened in Pukimpa and then on Mitra, after all the politics talk he couldn't understand and yet was forced to sign into... simple training was a welcome change of pace.
Sure, it was under Mr. Lute, far from the happiest fellow - quite the opposite, he just oozed bad thoughts - but it was better than nothing. And hey, Mr. Cam was also fairly intense at the start, and he ended up being not as bad as Absolut thought... until... he died...
Don't think about it, don't think about it!
Heroes don't have the time to have bad thoughts! And now you're not just a teenager trying to be a hero... you are a hero!
Absolut ran across a small collection of Ultramarines, ignoring their surprise at the young Emperor's enthusiasm, and was about to leap off straight through the hatch, until he realized that the planet which unfolded before his eyes was basically a glimpse from Hell.
"Waagh!" Absolut exclaiming, stopping with a screech and comically flailing his arms, stopping at the edge of the ramp and looking down on the surface of the planet. What unfolded before him was a thick, impenetrable, burning jungle extending as far as the eyes can see, a thick and scorching hot air surrounding his body, and an environment which just felt uneasy to be in. This is what Lute picked out as their training planet?!
Speaking of Lute, it did not take long before Absolut was able to pick out his aura below, a bit further away from his spaceship, in front of a small pond. So he was here, too... he wasn't bothered by the environment at all.
"M-Mister Lute!!" Absolut called down towards the Namekian below, still looking down through the open hatch. "A-Are you sure you weren't mistaken?! This is where you want to train me?! This... this looks like something from Hell!"

The Fallen King TAGS: Emperor Absolut
Lute snapped out of the distraction of his thoughts when the Imperial Wrath appeared in orbit, along with it the many energy signatures of Ultramarines.
The Emperor was here. And thus the training would begin. The enormous vessel was familiar, having once been Polaris's own flag ship. Lute remembered it from Polaris's visit to Hollow. The cruiser descended, looming over the jungle and casting a might shadow. Its repulsors and thrusters kicked up clouds of dust and loose foliage and scattering them in random directions. Bird squawked and cried, taking to the skies. He heard the shifting and rattling of creatures in the underbrush, fleeing from the colossus that threatened them.
A hatch opened up in the belly of the vessel. Out of the corner of his eye, Lute spotted the Emperor standing at the lip and heard the cry of his voice even over the enormous rumbling sound, with his keen ears.
"Let's go Your Majesty," Lute said, his voice gruff and commanding. "Time is precious and we need to get as much training done as we can, while we can."
He motioned to Absolut and then flickered from sight. He moved at a pace he was sure that Absolut could follow with his eyes, his body a line of motion across the jade tree tops as he forged onward deeper into the jungle.

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
Lute did not explain anything. Why did he pick out a planet which looked like a picturesque image of Hell as their training grounds? What did he want them to do here? All of these questions would have to be answered at a later time, because the Namekian simply waved on and ordered him to follow, before leaping off across the trees into the distance.
Absolut audibly gulped.
Okay, okay, calm down. It's just a hellish landscape, it's not going to hurt you or anything...
"Mister Lute, wait!" Absolut exclaimed, leaping off the ramp and flying after the Namekian. Though Lute was moving quickly, it wasn't impossible to follow his movement over the trees, not to mention that his ki was shining like a beacon across the planet. There weren't any other notable ki signatures across the entire planet, after all...
After a little bit of flying, the young Frost Demon dropped down into the tree tops of the jungle much like the Namekian head, leaping from branch to branch to try to keep up.
"Mister Lute! What are we gonna be doing out here?"

The Fallen King TAGS: Emperor Absolut
Misshapen trees tangled together to form a basket-weave like canopy. Even the local star's light could barely filter through the overlap of the leaves. It was dim and humid. A fog-like mist clung to Lute's skin. It was hot too, felt like he was walking through a sauna. Mud and idle pools of rainwater littered the ground between the tall ferns and wicked tangles of thorny vines. The cries of the forest filled his ears with a constantly shifting wild cacophony.
Tritek had always been a feral place, far removed from any sort of taming. Sure, there had been colonies built here. But, few had grown to any considerable size. This planet was one that didn't like to be shaped. The wilderness fought tooth and nail against the rigid organization of civilization. And, usually it won. This was the perfect place to train Absolut. It was quiet, it was removed. But, most of all it was dangerous.
The boy caught up, asking questions. Lute stood with his back facing away. It didn't seem right to not face his Emperor, to not give him the utmost respect. But, in this moment Lute couldn't see the boy as his superior. Rather, he had to see him as a student.
"If I'm going to effectively train you," Lute said, his voice drowned out by the hooting and hollering of some creature in the brush. "I need to gauge where you stand."
He twisted his neck, and with it came an audible pop.
"You trained with Cam, did you not? Well, Cam once defeated me in a one on one battle. So, you should be able to too, if you learned anything from him that is."
The Namekain turned and assumed a fighting stance, one arm low at his side with an open flat palm, and the other curled into a claw and raised above his brow.
"Attack me with everything you got. Don't hold back for a second. Just like you did on Kabocha. If you're not fighting at that level, I will force you to the hard way."

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
When Absolut finally caught up to Lute and managed to get his question out, the Namekian had already stopped, standing underneath a dim, humid, misty canopy, which made the young Frost Demon feel uneasy to the core. Everything... just didn't feel right. Like it was a galaxy away from the civilization he was so familiar with.
What Lute requested him was so obvious that it made Absolut step back in surprise. The Namekian knew Mr. Cam personally and knew that he was training the Frost Demon earlier - and as such, he wanted to see what Absolut was capable of. The logic was that if Absolut was trained by cam, and Cam was strong enough to defeat Lute, then Absolut should be able to defeat Lute.
Not only that, but Lute demanded Absolut to go out the same way he did on Kabocha, or else the Namekian will force him to.
"W-wait! I..." Absolut's arms flailed, but before he could explain that there's no way that he would be able to even touch someone as strong as Lute, the boy let out a sigh and calmed down.
He... he doesn't mean it literally, right?.. There's no way Lute would demand this much from someone like him... Yeah, let's go with that! Calm down, take a breath...
"I can try."
Absolut pulled out the Sword of Greenskull from its hilt hanging on his back, a pure white, fiery aura suddenly bursting to life around his body as all of the power bottled up in his body seeped across his veins. Holding up the heavy weapon with both of his hands and staring into the Namekian through his aura, Absolut bent down and then suddenly charged forward.
"Haah!" Shouting at the top of his lungs, the young Frost Demon released a series of slashes with the Sword of Greenskull towards Lute.

The Fallen King TAGS: Emperor Absolut
Absolut did have some skill with Polaris's former weapon, that much was clear as he dashed in and unleashed a series dangerous slashes. Despite Lute's power degradation, he was still a veteran fighter. He had trained and battled most of his life, honing his instincts and skill. Even with the loss of such a monumental advantage, the familiarity of the fight coursed over him. It felt good, natural even as he parried the strikes off the palm of his hand, using nothing more than his dense aura.
The amethyst ki had flowed around him like a rippling current. No longer was it the choking black smoke that reeked of insipid malice. No, this was his real aura--a blazing purple flame that danced with a new found resolution.
He controlled the raw power subconsciously, using not a though, noor effort. This allowed him to freely counter each of the blows, sending a sharp fingertips into Absolut's armpit and to the back of his neck as a rebuttal.
Behind the youthful Emperor, the Fallen King proceeded to unleash a salvo of precise jabs, each one aimed at a focal point of ki in the body. They weren't meant to cause real damage, rather they would force the blazing surge of ki in Absolut's body to pool and erupt outward with painful consequence.
Lute then sent his green forehead careening down to the center of Absolut's back in an attempt to lay him out. Still within point blank range, he would follow up by trying to grab Absolut by the shoulders and forcibly rip shred his aura, casting it like confetti to the wind.

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
Maybe the way how Absolut suddenly lunged at his opponent swinging his weapon was not the best way to start their spar, because Lute immediately began to lay the smackdown on him. After dodging and parrying all the wide swings of the Sword of Greenskull, immediately responsing with sharp stabs into the young Frost Demon's wrist and neck, which forced him to stop his offensive and shriek in pain.
A shriek which continued as Lute suddenly appeared behind Absolut and released a series of pressure point strikes. Even though they were not meant to cause any serious damage, the ki sources within his body contracting and erupting sent pulses of pain through his body regardless. For a finish, the Namekian's massive forehead suddenly slammed into Absolut's, sending the young Frost Demon reeling back, and his thick hands grabbed him by the shoulders, lifting him up like a small child and visibly ripping apart the aura around his body.
Absolut dropped to the ground, and for a few seconds, it appeared as if he wasn't going to stand back up after such a powerful combination. Until, suddenly, he did exactly that - clutching onto the Sword of Greenskull in his hands, the young Frost Demon pulled himself upward, stumbling a little, his right eye now closed as a small flow of blood from his forehead was streaming over it, and visibly exhausted. But standing nonetheless.
Even breathing was a pain. All those pressure point strikes Lute did on him must have done something to his system.
But that was not going to stop him anymore.
"Haaah!" Absolut screamed at the top of his lungs again, this time sending a series of vertical slashes towards the Namekian, with even more ferocity than before.

Absolut got back up.
Lute didn't expect him to. That elicited a grin from the Namekian.
"Good!"
And then the young warrior returned with vengeance. Lute had to dodge his first vertical slash by tilting his body away. It exposed Absolut's side to him, so he brought up a knee and tried to send it into his ribcage. The second slash he blocked with the bone on his forearm and a gust of the swirling purple aura around his body. The raw ki sparked and sputtered against the legendary weapon's sharp edge.
Lute shot a finger jab at Absolut's elbow, aiming to disable one of his arms. Still, the youth the attack and the third strike that Lute couldn't escape from. If not for his dense aura, it would have chopped clean into his neck. Instead it glanced off his skin as though it were made of rubber and made him stumble back a few feet.
"That's right. Remember all those powerless people. Fight, like your life depends on it!"
Lute surged forward and sent a front kick aimed at Absolut's torso in an attempt to send him flying into a large tree that lurked behind. He would lend chase, appearing at Absolut's side in an instant. But, he would wait and see his reaction, rather than pressing the attack more. He was forcing the Emperor to find his limits, not trying to slaughter him--after all.

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
What Lute told him was encouraging. Not exactly something which Absolut had not heard before - even Mr. Cam was aware that the best way to motivate him to stand up and continue on is by appealing to his good nature - but it was warm to hear nonetheless.
What Lute did, however, was not as encouraging. Every single one of Absolut's sword slashes ended up either dodged or taken without injury, and the Namekian would promptly respond with blows of his own, all of which found a lot easier time at landing. For now, his tenacity managed to pull through - but pain pulsated across his body with each strike, stronger and stronger.
Lute finished off his combination with a powerful blow straight into Absolut's stomach, sending him flying across the battlefield, crashing through several trees on the way, all while the Namekian gave chase to him. It took a few seconds for Absolut to recover from the powerful strike, but as soon as he realized what situation he was in, the young Frost Demon immediately went for a sharp stop and aimed the Sword of Greenskull at Lute's abdomen, hoping that the Namekian won't react in time and impale himself on the weapon.
"Haaaah!" Absolut's lungs were burning and aura was fading, but despite that, the young Frost Demon continued attacking regardless, pulling back his weapon and immediately sending dual horizontal slashes at his opponent.

The Fallen King TAGS: Emperor Absolut
Splinters and chunks of tree fluttered through the air around the duo. Lute drifted beside Absolut, who reacted by thrusting the sharp end of his sword out. That caught Lute by surprise, he fully expected his new student to be stunned far longer by the blow and bowling through trees. The blade tip slammed into him and he went flying. Lute's moccasins dug into the brush and mud, sliding back several yards. If not for his dense aura, he would have been skewered and bleeding.
"I'm glad to see you have spirit Emperor. That is the hard part to train. The rest will be far easier, so long as you pay attention and do as I say."
He returned with vengeance, swinging the sword in wide horizontal arcs. The first of which Lute simply batted away with his forearm. The second he skirted around, whipping to Absolut's flank in an instant.
Birds cawed, fleeing the scene. The still and quiet of the jungle was shattered by their bout. Somewhere behind them a tree cracked and fell, the sound like thunder. Lute took a moment to study Absolut. The boy was ragged and almost at his limit. If Lute battered him any more, the lesson would be over. So he decided not to act this time, rather educate.
"You swing that sword around like you're doing work. Your attacks are all fury. Each one should be measured and precise. Know what and how much you intend to cut, before you cut. Control the flow of ki in your body, channel it into the weapon and surround it. This will reinforce and empower it, also make the cutting edge far more honed. I shouldn't be able to block your attacks like I do, instead I should want to flee away from them or lose an arm."
Lute demonstrated by focusing ki into his finger tips which quickly formed into a buzzing blade of pure energy. He swept it to the side. At first it seemed nothing happened, but seconds later several trees slid on their trunks and tilted. They didn't get too far in their fall, as they were tangled up in the dense canopy which supported them--for now.
He simply motioned for Absolut to try again.

Mr. Cam's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
After the series of less than successful follow-up slashes after his stab, Absolut landed on the ground with a slide, taking a few heavy breaths and turning his eyes towards the Namekian opponent. Surprisingly, however, even though he braced for a beating in his weakened state, Lute did not make a move, instead explaining why he keeps not getting anywhere with slashes. They're all fury, no focus.
Absolut rested the tip of the Sword of Greenskull on the ground, his left hand rubbing the right wrist to alleviate the strain which the weight of the weapon has incurred on him, and replied:
"I-I'm trying, Mister Lute... But I've never fought with a real sword in my life, it's hard to get into the rhythm. The energy constructs I used to fight with were all weightless..."
Energy constructs... Energy constructs... And Lute said something about channeling his energy into his weapon to strengthen its power... Maybe that's the key?
Absolut lifted up his weapon and closed his eyes, allowing his ki to cloak the blade of the Sword of Greenskull, manifesting as a thin, glowing and radiating energy construct cover over the blade of the weapon.
"...Now!"
Ignoring his exhaustion, Absolut charged forward again. Mister Lute... said something about attacking more precisely, right? Maybe I should... The young Frost Demon suddenly sent the weapon forward for a stab maneuver towards the Namekian's chest, immediately folling it up with dual sideways swipes, trying to cleave into his right arm and shoulder.

"I-I'm trying, Mister Lute... But I've never fought with a real sword in my life, it's hard to get into the rhythm. The energy constructs I used to fight with were all weightless..."
"Good then! That weapon will build your strength and endurance."
Absolut was a quick learner. That much Lute could see. The boy formed the coating of ki over his weapon and lunged, thrusting at his chest. He was off guard, as he had been talking only moments prior so both of his eyes went wide as the sharp tip threatened to puncture his chest and with it his lung.
He caught the blade in his hand, the entire length of his arm shaking from the pressure. This was new to Lute, feeling so weak. Such an attack should have been easy for him to stop. Yet, here he was--his arm looking shriveled compared to its former well muscled self.
"Just-like-that!"
He swung his arm out and released the weapon, retreating a few steps into the brush. Lute's arm shot out, unraveling like a ribbon as it went. He grabbed hold of stubby tree and yanked it back, pulling it in front of him. The shrouded weapon cleaved through like it were mere paper.
Good, his cutting power has increased.
He dipped out of the last swipe and leaped high, landing on the bough of a nearby tree.
"Now you need speed. Let's see if you can catch me."
Lute then flickered from sight, leaping from tree to tree in rapid succession. It was a lot slower than him moving in a straight line. Plus all the obstacles would be a challenge of agility for the young Emperor.

Mr. Lute's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
The following barrage of attacks Absolut sent seemed to do a lot better - or, at least, they seemed to be impressing Lute somewhat. Even though the Namekian simply caught the first sword slash with his hand, he said that he should work... just like that. The other slashes merely cleaved through a tree which Lute suddenly pulled in between them, which he apparently took as an opportunity to start fleeing, landing on nearby tree.
Taking a few heavy breaths, recovering after the last barrage, Absolut shifted his body to turn towards the distant Namekian, just in time for him to state that he needs speed, must try to catch him, and leapt into the forest.
Alright... I can do that...
Leaping into the air and starting to fly, Absolut swept into the forest, his eyes focusing on the escaping Lute - however, the young Frost Demon soon realized that this task was going to be easier said than done. The weapon in his hands was heavy and holding him down, and there were tons of branches, leaves and other various obstacles getting in the way of his flight. Lute was turning more and more into a small flicker in the distance...
An idea popped into Absolut's mind, and the young Frost Demon landed on one of the branches nearby, winding back his heavy weapon:
"Haaah!" Shouting, the Frost Demon suddenly sent it forward like a boomerang, speeding across the branches in his path while spinning and opening a clearant while closing in on the Namekian. Absolut quickly followed after, flying through the opened path in the branches, and whether or not the boomerang actually landed, he'd grab the spinning and flying eapon in the air as soon as he closed in on Lute and immediately sent it forward in a pierce maneuver to try to pin him down.

Lute's keen ears caught the whirling sound of the blade whipping through the air.
Clever, kid.
He glanced over his shoulder. The weapon was moving at astounding speed, buzzing straight through branches and dense canopy, leaving behind a trail of cropped limbs. He slowed, landing on a large branch and leaped to get out of the way. The blade kept going and then he heard it stop.
Both of Lute's eyes went wide as the young Emperor took hold of the weapon and thrust it at him. He swung his own buzzing purple ki blade up, deflecting the blow. But, it glanced and cut open a line on his brow.
Purple blood trickled from the gash and onto his cheek. A proud grin crossed his lips, but faded into a focused scowl a half second later.
"Not. Half-- Bad!"
Lute shoved the weapon back with all of his might and dipped to the left, slashing his own ki blade in a diagonal motion, trying to cut Absolut from hip to shoulder. The attack was a swift rebuttal, but one his new student had earned. Absolut had proven strong enough for Lute to resume attacking. He was a capable threat now.

Mr. Lute's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
For the first time in the battle, Absolut actually managed to land a solid hit on the Namekian, even getting him to sprout purple blood - an act which instantly broke the young Frost Demon out of his battle thrill. Did he... go too far? Sure, Lute was happy and stated that he wasn't doing half bad, but... that's still blood being drawn in what was supposed to be a mere spar, isn't that going too far?
This moment of hesitation meant that Absolut barely managed to react to Lute suddenly slashing at him with an energy blade - his Sword of Greenskull was still in motion, and by the time the Frost Demon managed to move it to position, the two weapons suddenly clashed with a powerful bang. The force of the blow was enough to send Absolut flying and slamming back-first into a tree on the way, cracking the elderly thick trunk in half.
It was nowhere near enough to keep Absolut down, however. Mere seconds later, the young Frost Demon charged back into the battle, letting battle instinct overtake him yet again.
Instead of holding the heavy Sword of Greenskull with both hands, Absolut suddenly let go of the handle with his right hand, guiding the weapon with his left to strike Lute's swordwielding arm and try to keep the ki blade out of range, while an energy construct dagger formed in his right and the young Frost Demon sent it forward to try to stab the Namekian straight in the chest.

"You hesitated back there," Lute said.
Despite that, Absolut was back with a vengeance. Lute noticed the change of hands with his weapon. That was an advantage of a real sword, being able to move it between hands with ease. It could make your attacks less predictable. Already the boy was learning how to use clever thinking and maneuvering to gain and advantage. It paid off too, another nick opening up on Lute's right shoulder.
More purple blood, albeit a far lesser amount. Head wounds always seemed to bleed far more than was necessary anyway. Lute saw a flash of energy from the construct dagger. He turned sideways, making himself a smaller target and it sailed past.
He dropped off the branch he stood on and let himself fall back to the jungle floor. There he simply swept his arm to chop down the tree they had been fighting in. A distraction for Absolut to deal with.
He then flickered from sight, spearing above and behind his student before the tree even hit the ground. Surging down, he brought his ki blade forward, attempting to stab through the right shoulder and pin Absolut into the ground.
"Don't do that against me."

Mr. Lute's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
Lute noticed Absolut's hesitation almost immediately, getting out of the way of the energy construct dagger attack and leaping back with only a minor wound on his arm. He... he could tell instantly, with a mere snap? But it was only for a second...
"I... I didn't want to make you bleed... This was meant to be just a spar, after all." Absolut muttered out in haste during the brief moment of time he had to respond, then immediately went back to focus on the battle at hand. The Namekian used his arms to chop down one of the trees surrounding the battlefield and let it fall towards the Frost Demon - in response, Absolut bent back his weapon, awaiting the tree to fall closer, then suddenly slashed across its trunk to cleave it in half and let both halves fall to the side, with him unscathed.
It was a mistake, however, as the tree was apparently merely a distraction - suddenly, the Namekian charged towards him with an energy blade ready in tow, and though Absolut tried to raise his sword to block the incoming attack, it was too little too late - the energy blade pierced into his shoulder and suddenly pinned him down straight to the ground.
"Aaaagh!" Absolut shrieked as his body continued to be dragged across the ground for a few more meters before finally coming to a full stop. Blood gushed out of his right shoulder and pulsating pain flooded the young Frost Demon's body - despite that, however, though clenched teeth, Absolut moved for a makeshift response, his left hand clutching onto the ki blade and then suddenly releasing a powerful explosive wave, both as an attempt to destroy the ki blade and blow Lute away. Immediately after, the Frost Demon would follow the wave up with a dual slash towards the Namekian's frame, first a horizontal and then a vertical one, as if he was drawing a cross on Lute's body.

"You have a good heart," Lute said.
His ki blade was cauterizing the meat of the Emperor's shoulder. It wouldn't be a fun wound.
"But, spars are meant to hone your fighting instincts. How will you ever do that if you are indecisive?"
He twisted the blade a little. Sure, it was sadistic, but it would also drive home the point he was trying to make. "You can't afford to hold back, until you know just what you're capable of. Everything I do is measured. Even this. You won't die from this, but you'll learn a lesson. Pain is the ultimate teacher, after all."
Thuuum!
Lute was hurled back by an explosive burst of ki. The forest around him disintegrated from the heat and pressure of it, a dome of brilliant light rising above the canopy. Birds scattered to the winds. Trees were reduced to ash. Lute hung at the edge of the destructive circle, his clothing singed and crisped.
Absolute appeared through the smoke and ash, blade in tow. Lute parried the horizontal slash with of his own ki blade, shifting his back foot as he did so that the boy could pass by. The vertical slash came slower than it would have due to this change in direction. He managed to stop it by interjecting himself, gripping Absolut's wrist right below the cross-guard.
He dismissed his own ki blade and held his hand out, palm flat to Absolut's face.
Instead of blasting him the conventional way, Lute merely released a concussive burst to send him flying back. He would then slip from sight, moving past the Emperor and behind him. There he summoned his ki blade back, its buzzing edge flashing to life from his fingertips. He sent out a quick jab aimed at Absolut's sword arm and then flung his his weapon across, attempting to finish his foe by opening up a cut across the center of his chest.

Mr. Lute's Reluctant Pupil @tag, NOTES
Despite the gushing, open wound where Lute's knife had stabbed and twisted his flesh, Absolut charged into the heat of battle regardless - however, his chances of victory, however slim they were initially, faltered with each passing second. First, the Namekian, though taking the blunt of the explosive wave head-on, handled the young Frost Demon's sword swings fairly easily, even grabbing hold of the young Frost Demon's arm to prevent any further attacks.
Absolut clenched his teeth, struggling with trying to break his arm out of the unyielding grip, not even noticing that Lute was about to blast him straight in the face until the last second, when he got flung for several dozen meters by a powerful concussive wave.
"Ngh..."
Already, Lute was moving forward, charging at the young Frost Demon without any hesitation. Not even a single bit... and that's exactly what he was trying to drill into his head, wasn't it? He only had two modes - a frightened, constantly self-questioning child hesitating on almost everything, and a frenzied madman overtaken by emotion and blind fury. Neither one was going to cut it, huh?..
Raising his weapon and holding it up horizontally, Absolut blocked the first jab by the Namekian's ki blade, but the following sideways cut easily broke through the Frost Demon's defense, flinging the flimsily held weapon aside and slashing across his torso. The teen slammed to the ground, sliding for several meters, blood gushing out from the long wound at several spots - for a moment, he seemed like he might try to stand back up and counterattack again, but his body's fading stamina, pulsating pain and blood loss eventually won over.
"I..." a faint mutter left Absolut's mouth. It was... hard for him to quantify what he felt. Didn't Lute say that he should win this fight? And he lost so handily instead... "I'm sorry..."
