Joy! joy!

Vindictus seems to continue with what he did before, but this time dark magic joins the fight. The feeling of sickness creeping at the edge of your skin, as if the plague itself was casting across the field. Disgusting. But weak in form due to Vindictus being weak himself, easily ignored. The flames were strong though, easily doing several damages of burning and destroying the forest.

''Such a mess! wonderful!''

Yet, Ardith wasn't going to simply stand back and watch while Vindictus used his magic, it was once his turn to completely overwhelm the opposing side. This time, ice completely freezes Vindictus legs in place, causing his movement to completely stop. Leaping to his front, several fists shrouded with sharp ice are punched into his arms and torso, causing many holes which seemed quite serious. Blood drips down his form, leaving the poor boy defenseless.

A final kick is sent into Vindictus chest, causing his body to fling back to the ground beaten and the ice that bound him to break into particles of water. ''Oh my... not as strong as you thought, huh? Maybe you should think before you speak-- Nevermind! You won't be able to anymore, hahaha!''

It was time for what Vindictus was dreading this entire time, the loss of his tongue, the loss of his speech. ''We'll have no more disrespect from you...''

The sharp iced nails that form at the end of two of Ardiths fingers seem deadly, while his other hand forces Vindictus mouth to open up wide. Pushing them inside, they carve into the muscled flesh of his tongue, tearing it away from his maw, causing blood to overflow in the boys mouth. A disgusting sight, as Ardith pulls back the motionless tongue stuck to the edge of one of his spiked iced claws, while blood covers his hand.

''Such a loss... now you best make sure you don't cry or choke to death on your own blood! HA! We don't need any accidents...'' His grin leaves his face, returning back to that careless look. With a single flick, the tongue is tossed at the frozen lake, leaving a trail of blood while it slides across the waters frozen top.

''I guess coming into the forest was much more fun than I expected, a shame people do not know how to approach a stranger.'' Those cold icy eyes stare down at Vindictus for a moment, before turning back to see the Ookami was nowhere to be seen-- Bari had left or hidden somewhere.

Was there anything left here to do? doubtful, Ardith was going to depart if nothing else stopped him.
