Chapter 20: Back Tracking

Start from the beginning
                                    

In a manner that can be described as anything, but normal.

Floating above them in the air at midday, she looked down upon them with the same expressionless face.

"I've given you your warning. Stop now and I won't do anything. Continue and I shall bear no responsibility for what I'm about to do," she spoke in her same breezy way. Despite speaking in a monotone and quiet voice somehow everyone clearly heard what she was saying.

"Ho~?" Kali was intrigued slightly by what she could mean. And so she egged her on. "Just try to stop us," she laughed wickedly. She was convinced that she would be helpless against her familia. And if common sense were a factor she may have been correct. After all, she had two level 6s on her side. The amount that could single-handedly stop them could be counted on one hand. The likelihood of this nobody being one of them was close to none in Kali's and frankly the rest of the Amazonian's eyes.

Upon hearing this response, the girl closed her eyes and tilted her head downward.

"Very well," she said. "Now you have no one to blame but yourselves," she said.

She slowly raised her left arm in the air and stood there quietly for 5 seconds.

And nothing happened.

"Oi don't tell me all you can do is fly and act like a fool!" laughed kali. "Hey, Bache, Argana. Kill her," Kali commanded. However, as she did so something strange began to take place.

Winds that were lightly blowing began to pick up, clouds began to circle, and the more time that passed the more intense the effect became.

"Hey what the hell is happening," Kali said with a half smile.

"..." everyone else was too stunned to say anything.

Black clouds billowed and spread across the sky covering what had once been a bright blue sky.

The tides slowly began to grow larger and winds blew with more intensity in this one instance than most of the Amazionins had ever felt before.

"Oi, oi, oi what the hell is this?" Kali spoke slowly.

It was only natural this would be her reaction. The thing playing out before the goddess's eyes should be impossible. By all accounts this was magic. It had to be, there was no other way this made sense. Yet no chant, and a scale far larger than anything that any child could reasonably accomplish.

It was almost as if this was a god using their arcanum, but that too should be impossible. In the first place, Kali would've recognized her immediately if she were a goddess. There was no way she could have hidden her aura.

But then there was no explanation for this scene before her.

"I'll ask this final time, delay your venture to Oarario."

"Tch, come down here a fight face to face!" Kali yelled in response.

"..." she simply stared down at them silently with the same blank expression.

"..."

"...no," she refused, her breezy response simply pissing off Kali more. Kali continued with the insults and provocation in an attempt to fight, but the girl simply stared down at her from on high, refusing to fall for such things. It didn't take long for her to disappear, yet the storm continued, and since they had been stuck in this situation.

If the impossible range and potency of the spell weren't enough on its own the duration of it seemed to be equally absurd, if not more so. The amount of mind necessary to accomplish such a spell and keep it going for such a time and range was truly unprecedented.
