There was a ringing sound and each of the blades was simply thrown back, but that's not all, each of those who touched the ice received a piece of cold and the dark ice began to slowly spread over the silvery steel.

Erza and everyone else stared in bewilderment at this huge block of ice. The cold coming from her chilled to the bone!

At the same time, Aidan wiped sweat off his forehead.

"More difficult than it seemed ... The waste of magic is not very significant, but the concentration for formation is impressive. But, I think now it will not break through, the seal is several times smaller than it should be, and not have other parts, but I will be able to guide it "- clenching his teeth, Aidan returned to his former relaxed expression and did not show any fatigue. It was hard to think that he spent quite a lot of energy on this seal, and now he is spending the rest on manipulating it ... His container was much superior to ordinary magicians, but his skills to manipulate magic and create spells were clearly inferior even to Erza. Only, he was not going to give up!

With a light wave of his hand, he instantly raised the ice seal into the sky. Its dimensions were barely three meters in height, and the same in width, but it was easily enough to block any attack of the swordsman. No matter how strong her blades are, it will not be possible to break through such a defense without strong technique.

Makarov looked in amazement at such ice manipulations and became more and more convinced that the guy was using ancient magic. He could not only create so easily, but also manipulate creations like puppets, such magic was impressive and clearly superior to the usual.

- What is this ... - Erza watched everything in bewilderment, Gray did not know how to react at all. Usually it is impossible to manipulate one's own creations so easily, but the guy calmly held an ice structure of this size in front of his eyes ... Is it possible that Ur did not teach him everything?

Aidan did not hesitate, he wanted to finish everything as quickly as possible, so he launched a seal at the enemy. Erza reacted and all the blades around him evaporated, a long katana emerging in her hand with a golden glow. This was the first time she had fought such an opponent and decided to rely on speed. Instincts told her that it was definitely not an easy task to create such a seal and was certainly expensive in magic. Moreover, it is most likely not easy to manipulate. What's the use of a shield if you can't use it quickly?

Therefore, putting everything in speed, the girl quickly broke into the attack. Aidan noticed this too, so he waved his hand, and a huge seal instantly appeared in front of him, hovering in the air just a couple of meters from the body. Erza may be quick, but she clearly underestimated her typing speed. However, he was not mistaken, the girl was noticeably surprised at how quickly such a huge colossus was in front of her target, so she had to turn around and hit from the other side! But even there, as if predicting her actions, a dark seal immediately appeared. Erza could not understand how he could react so easily, because he could not even see her due to the dull and black surface of the seal, blocking all view. She could not even think that he did not need to look, because the ice under his feet was not created just like that. Although Aidan could not order him to act, feeling him and predicting the movements of those who touched his surface proved to be easy. On top of that, he is a life magician, even with his eyes closed, he could find her!

- Grrr! - With a furious growl, Erza jumped up and shouted: - Blooming nightblade!

Then there was a clang - the katana reached the dark icy seal! But as expected, this blow left only a barely visible mark on the hard surface. Even Makarov was amazed at the strength of the created structure. For him, it was naturally easier than ever to break this ice, but for most of the mages in the guild, this is just an insurmountable wall. Perhaps even S-rank beginners won't be able to destroy this defense immediately. Basically, he was right, yet Aidan's reserves allowed him to invest well in magic and bridge some gap in his understanding of his own magic. The amount of Ether in his container far exceeded any child of his age, possibly even as high as a rank A mage. In addition, he possessed ancient magic, all this together, even without the proper ability to use his own magic, allowed him to easily defend himself against any attack of Erza. Only the stamp was enough for the girl to completely lose the chances of overtaking him!

She tried again, again and again, but any attack was immediately blocked by a huge seal, and all her swords were covered with a trail of ice that hit everything in the way. Unbeknownst to her, Aidan controlled every part of it on his own. That was why his magic was so dangerous. After all, even a small snowflake could be enough to freeze any living creature. Of course, not at his current level - now he barely controlled all the ice created around him, and there was no point in talking about a battle with two opponents at once.

A few minutes later, it became clear to everyone who emerged victorious from this strange confrontation. Erza was already exhausted, and although beads of sweat also appeared on Aidan's face, apparently he could still hold on. Makarov was increasingly amazed at the child's reserves of magical power. Even his first assessment was not so wrong. Talan really came to the guild, and he also brought the second Dragon Slayer ... The old man turned his gaze to the restless girl and smiled:

"It looks like these two are pretty close ... Yeah ... Erza definitely won't accept such a defeat. Ancient magic really works wonders. If the boy had only a lot of magic, he would not have survived for long. But she obviously won't be able to overcome his defense ... "- with a heavy sigh, Makarov waved his hand:

- Enough. I declare the rookie winner. Aidan, you can remove all the ice - you won.

Erza dropped to one knee and slammed her fist on the ground with a displeased growl.

- How so ...! Heck!

Aidan was already at the limit, magic was enough for him, of course, but only he could hardly maintain the seal, so he let go of his hand, and the dark seal instantly turned into a hundred snowflakes, which were blown away by the wind. The ice on the ground immediately stopped spreading and simply stopped in its merciless path of glaciation.
