Leo was reckless, swinging his arms for lethal damage, but wasn't careful of his own footing. Brone took advantage of this and when he managed to block Leo's first attack, his claws scrape against the golden shield, leaving no mark, the dwarf would immediately headbutt the vampire, causing him to stumble back, giving him enough space to deal a lethal blow of his own. The green axe then swung horizontally, beheading Leo. Brone turned to face Egran as Leo's body fell limp before turning to dust.
"Ye signed yer death when ye attacked my home" Brone growled.
A bead of sweat dropped from Egran's brow. He wanted to turn around and escape, but he knew well that if he did, Ansem would find him and destroy him himself. The only chance he had for survival was to risk this fight and try to win, so he opened his palms and two magic circles came forth. Egran lacked magic, but he learned one spell that became his trump card in dire situations, a one use attack that was risky but has yet to fail him.
Egran ran forward and Brone did the same in order to meet him. When they closed the distance between one another, Brone pulled back on his green axe to swing, but before he could, Egran activated his spell. "Deep Freeze: Frost Action!" The spell instantly whipped up a freeze spell, drastically dropping the temperature, allowing vapor in the air to skip the liquid stage and instantly becoming solid, a dangerous process that can cause severe cell damage, which was what he intended. Egran knew of the Spellcleaver blade, which was why he made use to focus the spell upon Brone and avoid the axe entirely; if the axe can't touch the energy of the spell, then it cannot be negated.
Brone froze in place, his body became slightly obscured by the frozen mist. When Egran saw no movement, he laughed, "I did it! Master Ansem will reward me hansomly! Death to Yuurei and his kin!"
"Ansem is next" Brone's voice came through the mist, cutting Egran's joy short. The mist faded, revealing Brone shaking off bits of thin ice.
"How!?" Egran was frantic, his spell was able to rival that of the powerful Ice Shell spell, and yet the dwarf shook it off.
"The Mountain bows not to even the frigid air as it's peak breaks through the sky" Brone calmly said as his own magical energy whipped about him with a cyan color. His golden shield became his golden axe as it emitted magical frost energy. Brone closed the gap between him and Egran and with two swings from his axes, Egran became a frozen statue, sliced in two. The entire hallway frozen, ice layered on the walls, floor and ceiling.
Brone sighed and leaned against the wall, taking a moment to breath. Suddenly, Yuurei's voice came to his mind. The dwarf flinched, still trying to calm himself from his battle-ready state.
"I think I rid the main wing of the vampires here, just tell me where you are and I'll find you" Brone said as he ran towards the main lobby of the building.
