Several days had passed since the summoning, and nothing of note had happened..... until now, apparently, Harry had been speaking with a maid, Siesta, of certain things an old man far from home required to remain comfortable. When a student walked by and noticed a certain glass vial Siesta had been carrying around for several days now, waiting for a student to notice so she could find its owner and return it. However, instead of asking what the maid was doing with it, she immediately decried her as a thief, only for Harry to stand up for her. In the end, somehow, Harry ended up in a duel with the Earth Mage Guiche the Bronze.
“Yield, I do not find any honor in defeating a helpless old man.” Guiche stated solemnly.
“Helpless, child, they do not call me, Stormbringer, Master of Death. For nothing, I am far from helpless, even in my dotage.” the ancient human, as he had cleared up that he was indeed, human, said.
“Hmph, Do not let me kill you then.” Guiche said, his arrogance restored by having observed the formalities.
“Hmph, Youngsters, no respect these days...” was the ancient familiars reply.
“I am Guiche the Bronze, so the Bronze Golem, Valkyrie, shall be your opponent.” so saying, he cast forth a single rose petal to the ground, summoning an apparently feminine armor wielding a spear, and with a winged helm.
“And I am Molestus Plasmator Pro Levitas Repletus Tempestas, the Maker of Storms, prepare yourself, for your foe this day is nature itself. Recolligo Ventus In Meus Manuum , Permissum Totus Recubo Ut Pulvis Pro Mihi” as he chanted, winds swirled about him, and finally, a great wind burst from him, and where it passed, nothing but dust remained.
“Hah, do you think that is all there is to Guiche the Bronze.” with a wave of his wand he scattered six more petals upon the ground, summoning six new Valkyries, identical to the first save that they now possessed a shield.
“It matters not.... Ululatus Tempestas Propinquo , Rabidus Levitas Successio Jupiter's Ira Est Notus Per Totus Letalis Caput Capitis.” a mass of lightning descended from the clear sky in the blink of an eye, jagged an sharp, clear and hot, vibrantly blue. This, was not the lightning summoned by a Square Class Mage, this was beyond that.... now we knew why he was called 'Stormbringer'.
When our eyes had cleared from the spots, and we could finally look, we saw that there had only been two lightning bolts, one for Guiche, and a forked bolt that struck every Valkyrie at once, the bolt which stuck Gucihe had faded first, according to Professor Colbert, who, thanks to his long experience with Fire Magic was used to bright lights. The one that had struck the Valkyries, had remained for long enough to melt them into puddles... Guiche had gotten off lucky.
