Samuel Bates
Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer Life asked Death, "Why do mortals love me so, yet hate and fear you?" Sam smirked for a moment as the man asked why he wanted to fight. Some kind of foolish test, he supposed. No point in lying, even if he was an expert. "Because you want a fight," he said offhandedly, shrugging a bit. "And I want to fight. And because you look strong, and I want to test myself." He gave a nonchalant grin as he took another step forward, the light in his liquid silver eyes shimmering. "And because, honestly, you're an arrogant p***k who's way too sure of himself. I was listening to that whole argument between you and that other crazy- he's next on my list, by the way. But I figure the best way to knock you down a few pegs, put you in your place, is to show you up at what you think you're the best at. And sure, you might be more powerful than me- you might even be 'more powerful than a pathetic mortal mind like mine could possibly conceive,'" he added, the last part doused heavily with sarcasm; he was mocking the man openly now, and a smirk crossed his face. "But I figure if you haven't knocked me out in the first ten seconds of the fight, your s**t isn't as hot as you seem to think."
He stared into the man's eyes for a few more moments, unblinking; that smirk was a constant, as his jigsaw puzzle face simply stared there at him. Aside from his staff, the young man was unarmed; he had only his staff and his robes, and whatever surprises he had up those loose sleeves. "So, is that a satisfactory enough answer for you? Or are you gonna pull a hypocrite and bail like your a*****e buddy just did?" He muttered, nodding towards the gate where the other man had stormed off. His smirk cracked into a genuine grin as he chuckled slowly, staring down the arrogant man. Ten seconds in the ring and he'd have proved his point. After all, he was just a boy practically; surely a man that powerful would have no trouble beating a child in battle. In theory, at least; the reality of it was, Samuel was much more powerful than he was letting on. His energy was hidden away, stored up deep within, rather than radiating out and leaking like this man. In fact, this man's powerful aura was slowly being absorbed into Samuel's own, fueling his own strength for the coming battle- if there was indeed to be one.Death replied, "Because you are a beautiful lie, and I am a painful truth."

 ****** Archlord: Guardian of Duel Rose Academy *******
Archlord just looked at Sam as he wasn't effected by his words. Then he held up one finger without taking his eyes off the guy. "One, you absorbing my powers as we spoke which you can't take it all since my power is unlimited. So take all you can to build your power up in the end it won't help you." Then he held up two finger as he continue. "Two, it take more then ten seconds to fight you. Because you still holding back your power from us." Then there was three fingers up now. "And three, I never said I was to sure of myself. I know the different because I'm stronger then I was before. I'm fighting for something else not to test my power every time." Then he lower his arm down as he close his eyes.

Epic Irony ...okay swear words don't bother me, but this is gaia, please keep the swearing to a minimum...  *** Jakar ***
Jakar's eyebrow twitched at mention of the boy Siera was with, "..another one of the duelist..." He turned seeing the new arrival, he glanced at Archlord, "i'm letting you handle this one." Jakar had enough on his plate dealing with his psycho sister. He sighed listening to the new student, looks like this was going to be a headache of a school year.

Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer Life asked Death, "Why do mortals love me so, yet hate and fear you?" "Yeah, whatever. I'm absorbing your power- you're the one letting it loose. As far as unlimited, I hope you realize that's literally impossible. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. You might be magical, but the basic laws of physics are still in place," He muttered in minor annoyance. "As far as taking longer than ten seconds, if your power is 'unlimited' as you so claim, it should take a lot less than ten seconds to wipe me from existence, shouldn't it? So your logic is flawed in two ways on that end. As far as not being sure of yourself- again. The whole 'my power is unlimited, build up your power because in the end it won't help you' thing is pretty damn arrogant, if you ask me." At this point he was shrugging, as if this entire conversation was beginning to bore him. He sighed for a moment, honestly not caring about this teacher's self-righteous attitude; he could think himself as superior as he wanted, Samuel just wanted to fight. "So, is this going down or what? Because I could find something better to do if you're just going to stand there and be an a**. I have experiments I could be looking over, things of that nature. So either fight me, or not. But don't just sit there trying to act all high and mighty or intimidating. Because you're neither. So do me a favor and pull your head out of your a** for a few seconds, mkay?"Death replied, "Because you are a beautiful lie, and I am a painful truth."

"Sound to me you too full of your self. After all this time you still can't tell. My powers are still the same." Archlord said as he open his arms out wide. "Also I never make the first move." It was true, all the time he let Sam absorb his power his power haven't went down at all. He still have the same power he be starting with all the time. "And I'm a guardian, so what are you waiting for. Ten second won't do anyways."

Jakar brought to fingers the bridge of his nose closing his eyes as he listened to the exchange now he was started to get a serious headache, he turned and went sit down on one of the arena's bleachers leaning on his sword as sighed. He was not getting involved in this one, he really hoped not everyday was going to be like this."

Siera Serenity Star Sorry, I posted before I saw your last one. I'll keep it down now. Samuel Bates
Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer Life asked Death, "Why do mortals love me so, yet hate and fear you?" Sam chuckled as the man tried to turn it on him, giving a shrug. "Of course I can tell- it's not like I've been actively sucking you dry. A few bucketfuls of water out of the ocean isn't going to make the ocean seem like any less," he muttered, bringing up his staff. "Besides, that's the kind of energy you apparently radiate constantly. So of course it won't feel like much to you. But if you're waiting on me for the first move, well. That's your first mistake." He tapped his staff on the ground, which suddenly began shaking; arms shot up suddenly from the dirt, in various stages of composition. A particularly fresh specimen was the first out, and lumbered towards the man brandishing a rusty blade. The zombie made a halfhearted hack at his leg, only buying time as his brethren dug themselves out; there were twelve of them total, crawling from the ground at various speeds. Another one had sprung up behind him, and rather than get all the way free it opted to attempt to latch onto the man's leg and bury its teeth into his calf. Meanwhile, Samuel had held back and began twisting the man's shadow, making it work against him. Archlord's own shadow would tug at his feet, work to trip him up as the zombies began swarming. "Nine seconds left," he called, smirking to himself. "Think you got it?"Death replied, "Because you are a beautiful lie, and I am a painful truth."

Archlord just looked at him when he started the attack. He wasn't impress at what he did, but it didn't finish as Archlord disappear from where he was as a enchantment circle appear around where he stood and every twelve zombie was in the circle with his shadow. Soon a big flame shot out of the circle. Archlord appear behind Sam standing with his back against his. "Using a spell like that won't work on me. What nexts?"

Epic Irony alright thank you, and i've taken care of the other incident' *** Jakar ***
Jakar leaned his hand son the handle of his sword leaning his chin on his hands as he watched the zombies, he closed his eyes, this was going to take awhile. But it did give him a break from having to deal with his sister. He opened his eyes as he watched to see what Archlord would do next.

legacyofzack I'm honestly not too sure what you just did. It was a bit hard to follow, so sorry if anything in my post doesn't make sense... And next time, please try to be a bit clearer as to how and what you actually do? That'd help me out a lot. Samuel Bates
Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer Life asked Death, "Why do mortals love me so, yet hate and fear you?" When the flames faded, the zombies were still standing. More or less. Certainly worse for wear; they were all ablaze now, and the smell of burning flesh began filling the arena, but fire hadn't killed them. Mostly because they were already dead. However, Archlord was now standing behind Samuel- somehow- asking what was next. Gloating that a spell like that wouldn't work on him. Samuel didn't see how, exactly; teleporting wasn't exactly part of anyone's repertoire that he'd ever met, but then again he'd never met this man before. Still, teleportation or not, he was lasting that ten seconds. He used his staff to make a sudden poke at the back of Archlord's head, and considering they were back to back, and he wasn't looking, the man had no way of knowing the attack was coming. At the same time, he took the shadow magic to a more drastic level; Archlord's shadow suddenly removed itself from the ground, standing up and stretching. An exact copy of Archlord stood there in the space before the man, although it almost appeared more as a silhouette than anything. It was solid black, without even reflecting a bit of light; it also lacked a shadow of its own, being made entirely of shadow to begin with. However, it was as much a copy of Archlord in power as it was in shape; the shadow-copy was his perfect equal, and could hold the man to a stalemate on its own. Unfortunately for the real Archlord, it wasn't on its own; Samuel was there, as well as the twelve burning zombies. Who were now rushing towards Archlord, determined to latch onto the man in an attempt to feast- and, as it were, light the man on fire. Meanwhile, the shadow copy of Archlord suddenly stood where Samuel had been, with one of the shadow swords making a sharp jab at Archlord's midsection; Samuel himself had rolled out of the way moments ago, not bothering to stick around to see whether or not his bonk on the head with that staff had done anything. "Eight seconds," he called, rolling to his feet without skipping a beat as his creations rushed the man.Death replied, "Because you are a beautiful lie, and I am a painful truth."

Epic Irony Hmmmm, sorry on the phone it hard getting into detail which also I need to lean to do too. ****** Archlord: Guardian of Duel Rose Academy *******
Archlord stepped to his right side as he grabbed his shadow sword with his left hand and hold it there. Then he turn to face the zombies that was coming at him, rising his right palm toward them enegry form around his right palm will fast. "Seven seconds right?" He said as he shot a large enegry at all the zombies which exploded them into nothing. After that he sprun around grabbing his shadow by the neck as he looked in his eyes. "You do now I can use magic too right?"

legacyofzack It's fine, it was just a little unclear. No worries biggrin Samuel Bates
Friendly Neighborhood Necromancer Life asked Death, "Why do mortals love me so, yet hate and fear you?" Samuel chuckled at his comment, giving a wave; the fleshy bits of zombie that sprayed across the arena began shuddering, the bone shards and chunks of organs suddenly scuttling across the floor and gathering before him. Soon they became a grotesque monster made entirely of people bits; it walked on four legs, three of its twelve skulls leading as the head. It began spewing an acidic bile at Archlord, while his shadow twisted his sword free from the man's grip and made a move to shove it deep into the man's stomach, while swinging with his free hand with a solid punch aimed at Archlord's temple. Either blow would be devastating, as the shadow was an exact copy of Archlord; Samuel's necromantic abomination scuttled forward like a centipede, still spewing acid, and reached out for the man with its protruding bones and half-decomposed limbs. The stench of death hung around this creature in near-visible clouds, and breathing it in could make one dizzy simply from lack of oxygen. "Go ahead and use your magic all you'd like; I want your best shot," Sam said, his voice resonating from the shadow copy of Archlord as well, in Archlord's own voice. "By the way, it's six seconds."Death replied, "Because you are a beautiful lie, and I am a painful truth."

Archlord didn't move as he letted his shadow stabbed him in the stomach as green blood was dripping out of his wound. And he didn't move a inch when the punch hitted him in his temple. Even withh every blow are devastate, Archlord didn't flinch at all. He pulled his shadow infront of Samuel's necromantic as it reached out of his shadow not him. After he let go, he clouded tthhe whole arena with his purple mist which was thicker and couldn't see through it except Archlord and his shadow. Soon Archlord was standing infront of Sam through the mist without making a sound and his wounds was heal just to his power. "Five seconds, also, you sure know I'm the one we created magics to begin with. So let hurry up and end this so you will be happy already."

Jakar eyed the purple mist as it filled the arena, he didn't move but he kept his eyes fixated on where the fight was taking place. He had an idea of how the battle might end but he also knew not to count on an idea cause things changed witch each second of a battle.
