It's just a short time burst of strength. He's not sure if he could end the spar before that but... He need to act quick. His eyes wandered to the blade of his opponent... that ice again eh. Would she somehow use that move from before again? Valt wondered if Ophelia would once again risk to use that slash... but he already know about that move. Would she goes into panic and execute it anyway?
...But to his surprise and relief, she instead hold her ground. Yes, that's the way. Valt dashed, his speed slowly dropping as the duration of the buff is about to end... And that's when the lion swung her sword horizontally! It was good strategy...
"80 points," Valt would say. He jumped to avoid the swing. "You did right in not panicking, that was a good move...So just you know the friction with air while your blade is that long... it'll be worse than when your sword is short. Even if you attempt to pull it back after missing your target, against opponent with higher speed than you, it's a bad move."
Right in front of Ophelia, Valt's empowered V-Magnum is ready. He quickly executed the same one inch punch as before directly to the small lion's chest, faster and stronger than before.
"...You would do much better if you activate the skill midway while rushing to stab instead of wide arc like that."

Ophelia had quickly tried to adjust, when Valt jumped over the swing- though much like he said, there wasn't too much she could do to fix the mistake at this point. And if the ordinary punch from before had hurt, then this would've left a normal person with a few broken ribs; even if the strike struck her breastplate, she could still feel it as it knocked the breath out of her and sent her tumbling back a good few paces. She'd come to a rest face-down on the salted earth, groaning out a single "O-Owwww...." as she began to push herself up. It was clear she wasn't going to last too much longer, seeing as this was her second spar in a row, and Valt was the superior here of the two. She wasn't going to give up easily, though she was still tiring.
She'd need a second to catch her breath, inhaling deeply and feeling out the faint dent in her armor - she'd need to fix that later - as she listened to Valt's words. But once she felt like she could breathe normally again and lift her blade, she'd take in a deep breath, nod - both to herself and to Valt - before dashing back in to the fray; either she'd need to exhaust herself, or Valt would have to call off the spar, before she'd be willing to back down it seemed. "Hrraaaah!" Even with her exhaustion and aches though, she certainly had an unstoppable tenacity - attempting another jab towards Valt with her Blue Blade!

Now the aura faded... and in its place, Valt grimaced. Some irregular sparks of electricity flew from him, but unlike the glowy aura, the sparks looks like it's demerit instead. He gotta be extra careful on what to do. This is the decrease in defense that he so feared. A double edged sword... and this time around the blade is pointed at him. He checked at what Ophelia would do. So far she has shown two moves to him... Does... she have another move? The common sense dictates a Child stage Digimon have four moves, no more, no less. If any of the two are passives, one will be active... But if the two are passives, then so far he has yet triggered it, at least he'd like to think so.
Assuming that she haven't seen human yet... that means she probably has yet to go to any city and has yet to add any extension to her moves storage which led to smaller pool compared to Valt's own who maximized his pools in attempt to increase his versatility.
"...If so then the next move is..."
As he thought, it's the blade turning blue. Valt instead closed the distance, slapping the blade's body with the back of his hand. It stings, though, but it's far better than being hit by it directly. It almost felt like when he grabbed a dry ice with his bare hand by mistake. Valt hissed and retreated somewhat. He did not attack. His hand reddened somewhat
...But, he guess this will be the last. He picked a small rock. Suddenly, blast of electricity dances around him. His index finger pointed at Ophelia while his thumb curled with the pebble resting on the claw. It looked like a flick shot...

Ophelia would growl a little in her throat as her blade was smacked away before she could get a slash in on Valt - her brows furrowing a little as her tail flicked. Still, she must've got him in some fashion judging by the reddened hand and his hiss- so she had that going for her at least. Much like with how he predicted her next move then though, she had almost expected him to do that one energy attack next! Yet... No, there was something else here... She'd have been advancing at him, though would pause for a second to eyeball Valt as he began to do something different. A pebble and a lightshow of electricity; whereas with Ryouta it was all fake, with a digimon she had a feeling it'd be all too real instead.
She also had a feeling that this was going to be a strong one, although this was only going off of the static in the air from the electricity dancing around Valt; her fur standing on end from it. If she wanted to end this spar with a respectable performance, she had a feeling she'd want to get a good hit in now - perhaps try to throw off his aim, given that she didn't exactly have any cover in the open and flat training field.
And so, she would begin to dart in from an angle - as opposed to straight towards Valt - her blade readied. It looked almost to be just an ordinary slash at first, there being no particularly fancy effects as she got in close; though, she would try to dart around to just behind Valt in an attempt to avoid whatever incoming attack he was preparing. Once in position, she'd stop on one foot, and use the remaining inertia to go into a whirl - "Rhhaaaaa!" - and would extend and enhance the blade with that all-too-familiar ice once more at the last second, aiming the strike at Valt's side! It seemed she had taken the advice Valt had given to heart, using her ability at the last possible second to try and get the most out of the swing and whirl, in hopes of knocking Valt over or otherwise interrupting the attack.
ABILITY USED:
[ATTACK] Have at thee! - With a battlecry, Ophelia's blade enlarges into a long blade of ice, and she leaps into a savage downward slash at the foe!
[1 Turn Cooldown]
PASSIVES:
Prominence Native: Having particularly thick and fluffy fur, and having been raised in the coldest parts of Prominence, Ophelia has increased durability against ice/cold-based attacks. However, she - inversely - has a harder time against heat/fire-based attacks as well.

As much as Valt wanted to dodge the next attack, he know he can't. He know Ophelia want to swat him away, trying to change trajectory or whatnot, but... the blue dragon smirked. It was a smirk of a guy who welcomed death and challenge them to a game, whether it'll be his turn or "hell nah Satan, I'm staying". The attack would be good, yeah. If they're doing this for real, seriously Valt would probably get cut into two or worse... but...
"HNNN!!"
Not only he hold his ground, he used the same technique that Ryouta used before to harden his stance. The lowered defense guaranteed the next outcome. Blood spraying out from the point of impact, trickling down to his feet. But even then Valt still grinning. The sword being there with his muscles flexed means it'll still get lodged there... now, the preparation is complete. He aimed it directly at Ophelia's chest.
"....V-CRASH!!"
The flick of thumb followed by the impact on the pebble on his nail created such a deafening sound that Valt even swore that it affected him worse than Ophelia's sword. If it hits that definitely gonna knocks the consciousness off her for a while. But this.. is definitely his last action and gamble.

The impact - even from just a single pebble - was certainly tremendous, with V-Crash; the attack lived up to its name. It almost had a delayed reaction as it made contact - the pebble denting decently deep into Ophelia's breastplate, before it knocked all of the breath out of her, and sent her flying back. She'd lose her grip on the sword in the process of which, as she tumbled head-over-heels backwards across the training grounds, towards the edge, near where Ryouta was sitting. She'd skid a little even as she stopped tumbling - kicking up dusty salt in her wake as she slowly came to a stop, face-down.
She would groan softly - obviously pained now, and definitely not in any state to keep fighting. But yet, despite this, Ophelia shifted. She'd begin to move - her claws digging into the ground for traction as she tried to push herself up on shaky arms. "Grrrfff... H-hahh...." She was seeming pretty weary, yet trying to move nonetheless - managing to get up into a knelt position as she coughed and panted, trying to catch her breath and trying to stand. Yet even in her current state, barely able to get up and wavering in said attempt, her eyes blazed with a certain tenacity - that even in a spar, she was ready to keep going. Was this even remotely healthy though, even for digimon who love to fight?

"Yes, that's enough," a third voice declared. It wasn't Ryouta, but someone who looked like a butler. What makes it a bit different is that the butler smelled like a Digimon. He grabbed Ophelia's sword on Valt's waist and quickly applied something that looked like huge plaster. The moment he done preparing it, he pulled it out and patched the wound. Valt did let out a grunt the moment it left his body.
"...That was magnificent battle but really reckless of you, Master Valt. Miss Ophelia, I presume? Master Valt told me about you, as do Master Ryouta. My name is Ilbert. This is not my true body but rest assured, I'm the so promised medic. You hates losing don't you? That's fine, but... in training, you should know when to stop fighting. After seeing the extent of your damage, I think this is enough for today. Now..."
He lifted Ophelia and headed to what looked like a massive compartment. Inside, he would undress the lion girl and applied quick patch that immediately healed her from all her wounds.
"Pardon me for that unbecoming action, but I feel the best course of action would be indeed to undress you and send your armor to the forge for fixing. Now... I think it's best for you to rest first, milady."
Valt entered soon after, and smiled at Ophelia. "...So how do you feel at the moment?"

Ophelia would've gotten onto her feet - albeit quite unsteadily - by the time Ilbert made his appearance. She'd tilt her head a little in curiosity of seeing another human, before stumbling as she quickly realized that was a bad idea - though... As soon as she realized the spar was over, it seemed as though a switch was flipped in her. She'd let out a sigh and let herself flop backwards, resting her body after a good fight. She wasn't particularly upset over being on the losing side, sure it sucked, but she was still growing - right? She'd still be growing until she got big n' strong like her mom and dad were! Then she's really start kicking ass!
And she'd mention this to Ilbert, too - mentioning "Nah, it ain't that - it just ain't a good spar until I can't feel my limbs anymore!" with a big grin and giggle - it seemed she was mostly joking, but it was still clear that she was one to go ham even in spars nonetheless. Her tail would swish a little as she began properly having caught her breath - though this would be about when Ilbirt lifted her up! "W-woah, hey now!" She'd squirm a little - seeming quite startled and still unsure what to make of this other human quite yet, t-... Wait. Ophelia would pause in her squirming for a second to sniff Ilbert, to find that he smelled more like a digimon...?
She'd quietly contemplate this for a second, before settling down - deciding she was okay with this, and too tired to fuss over being handled like this. Though it seemed even with her weariness, she wasn't keen on letting someone else touch her armor, wrapping her arms around herself with a soft, somewhat disgruntled growl. Though, that growl would quickly shift into a low, quiet hiss as the breastplate was jostled by the movement - the dent pressing against the sore spot of her wounded chest. She'd take a second to compose herself, before beginning to take off her breastplate herself - carefully undoing the straps that held it on, and then taking it off. However, as she wasn't really injured elsewhere, she left her greaves, gauntlets, and visor on.
It felt weird being without her armor aside from bedtime, or snuggling with her family or a particularly good friend. It wasn't like, a big gripe - but a stranger messing with her armor had felt a little alarming on top of it, and she didn't like it. Doing it herself felt more comfortable.
Ophelia would hiss a tiny bit at the contact as a patch was applied - though the soothing feeling as it mended her wounds would soon follow, and she'd relax once more, and would grin right back as Valt entered - her ears and tail perking. "Feeling tired, but okay - it's a good-tired!" She'd chirp - she liked that achey-but-good feeling that she got after a good workout. She'd reach out to take Valt's hand, and pull him down so that she could hug him- apparently in a cuddly mood now, much like with Ryouta before, now that the fight was over and it was recovery time. "How about you?"

"That's called self destructing," Ilbert chided on the part about 'good spar'. It's seem the joke goes over his head, or perhaps he seriously thought that she's serious because how she was unwilling to toss the fight despite her body was begging for healing. "Good muscles only grow when you train enough... it's like more than just feeling the burn, but not enough to make your body fully exhausted until you can barely get up like this. It's not a good thing, Miss Ophelia. It'll only stunt your growth or damage your data. I understand that it might works for you back in the past and it builds tenacity, but... if you want to improve, then you should not make that mistake."
Not that he minds her growls when she seem to mind someone fiddled with he armor. But at the same time, a chuckle of mirth escaped his lips when he saw Valt was pulled and then hugged. It was... definitely something new that he never saw before. Especially now when Valt's blush pretty much reached his ears. He looked like a Vmon with red head instead of blue.
"Ah um...."
Thankfully Ryouta came afterward and tapped Ophelia. "Valt is a bit shy on skinship apparently. It's one thing that he'll never get used to. It's much more... intimate for him to cuddle, so yeah. Wanna cuddle with me instead?"

Ophelia would fall quiet for a second when Ilbert chided her - furrowing her brows, as if confused or even a little offended. She was growing just fine, she was pretty sure - what did a weird human-digimon-whatever know about how she grew? "This is pretty close to how me and Mom would spar n' train!" She'd retort, "We'd fight 'til we're tired, then I'd snuggle up with our family whenever they'd get home from getting food for all of us, while me and Mom rested back up!"
Regardless though, Ophelia would blink and tilt her head as Valt began growing flustered over her hugging him, and Ilbert chuckled a bit in response to such. She seemed a little oblivious to Valt's discomfort - at least, until Ryouta came along and explained it to her. "Oh - sorry..." She wasn't sure what Ryouta meant by intimate, but she understood that Valt was uncomfortable and didn't like cuddling - and that was okay, even if she was a little disappointed at it. She should've figured it out sooner...!
The offer to cuddle with Ryouta instead was a welcome one though, she'd perk visibly and grin, "Hell yeah!" as she proceeded to snuggle up to Ryouta instead, purring happily. She really was a cuddly housecat when she was recuperating from a good fight, her tail swaying in a happy fashion as she bunted her cheek against him. The scritches and petting felt nice, so she personally found Ryouta to be a great cuddlebuddy after a spar

"Fatigue is good in building strength but moderation is the key. I shall ask you then: By tired how tired? If you wonder "why would this old man meddle in how I trained myself?" Because I sense you want to get stronger. I found that admirable, but if you goes on like this it'll only be detrimental for you. As a butler I can't stay silent. My counsel might be unwanted, but I'll say it nonetheless. This is my [Justice]." Ilbert said.
"Well, he's right you know?" Valt would say after Ryouta lifted Ophelia from him. "You're a great fighter, Ophelia, but a bit too headstrong. I understand drive to win. I'm also damn bad at dropping fights when it's time to drop it. I'll give you my final assessment for the last time. So, listen carefully... It's less risky to use overhead slash with the back of your sword when you attempt to disrupt someone from charging. They'll be disorientated, much easier than trying to set them off balance with a slash to the rib. It was good, it was good and honestly a solid move, but if you want to keep them alive, that's less riskier than a slash to the rib."
"That was absurdly risky move on your part, Master Valt. Can't say that I approve it either."
"Heh, sorry Ilbert. Sorry but can you make me something on ice?"
"Very well, I'll return soon."
Ryouta resumed the headscritches and somehow had the great idea to groom her with specialized brush. He's not as good as Karin, but he sure know how to groom a feline.
"...So... you want to get stronger, right? You want to meet new friends? How about you join us?" Valt offered. "I can be your trainer."

Ophelia was quiet, unsure of what to make of Ilbert's advice - this is what worked for her, when she was younger, so she couldn't see what he or Valt saw as 'wrong' with how she liked to practice and train. Her mom taught her that the mountains are rough - so you have to be able to be tenacious and stand up to the roughness, else the wilderness isn't gonna pull punches for you. 'Course, this was before she decided she wanted to go off on her own, but she still wanted to be as tenacious as her parents were!
All the same though, she'd listen closely to Valt's assessment, nodding quietly as she gently purred in response to Ryouta's head-scratches. Yeah, maybe she was going a little bit rough in that spar - "Sorry; I got a little carried away there." Ophelia remarked in regards to the slash to the rib. "I was actually ready to stop when I got you on the back," She'd admitted with a sheepish giggle, adding "But you didn't say anything, and you seemed fine with continuing, so I kept going - figuring you'd let me know when to stop."
When the brush came out though, anything else Ophelia might've said or mentioned faded to the wind as she practically melted in Ryouta's arms, purring loudly. She'd never been brushed before - though she tried to keep herself decently groomed, her mane was thick and fluffy, so it was oftentimes a bit tangled but nowhere near matted n whatnot. The brush felt amazing though, and she'd bury her face against Ryouta's chest as she purred and purred and purred. It seemed that she was on cloud nine, and it took a good minute for her to realize that Valt was talking to her!
She'd raise her head and glance over to Valt - still looking maybe a little not all there from the amazing brush - though as soon as what Valt was offering her clicked, her eyes lit up! New friends? Valt training her..?? "Hell yeah!" She'd respond with a grin, her tail swishing excitedly. "I'd be down for that!"

"Hey chin up!" Valt dismissed the apology "I know my own limit and let me tell you, it takes more than that move to actually knock the hell outta me. Even if you draw blood then so what?" he shrugged "it's not enough to make me truly defeated. If you think that I'll be down just from that then you're sorely underestimating an ex-Super Ultimate stage, lady."
Looks like Ophelia liked the brushing. Is it her first time? The fierce lion girl now somehow looked more like a housecat instead of an actual lion. Not that Ryouta will said that out loud though. Thankfully, it looked like that she agreed to be part of the team. Valt grinned. "Alright! Well now, enjoy the sight as we'll enter the city. Ilbert, let's give our newest member the best sight of Ys shall we?"
"Understood Master." Ilbert came with the sake, which Valt gleefully sipped. Soon, the train began to move. the building looked small, but that's perhaps because how big the train itself. It's designed to comfortably fit very huge Digimons after all. But the best of it all is the clarity of the glass used on the compartment. The sight of the city is so clear like an open air train, except it's not. The luxury cruiser train continued its slow pace toward the center of the city, showing various building being repaired.
"Welcome to Ys... Welcome to KIZNA, Ophelia."

Ophelia would blink at Valt's encouragement, and would laugh and nod in acknowledgement - about to chirp out a confident response of her own, though.... What Valt said about an 'ex-Super Ultimate' suddenly clicked, then. She'd blink a second, before awe filled her expression as she called "Wait.. A Super Ultimate...??" Weren't those like, the top of the top? The strongest digimon around??? That was like.... "That's fucking amazing!" She'd exclaim, sitting up in Ryouta's lap, nearly falling off in the process. "That must mean you're like, super powerful, right?!" The little lioness was utterly awestruck at the idea that a digimon that strong could be before her - let alone teaching her! The strongest digimon she knew were Mom and Dad, who were Ultimates!
Though, as for the train ride, Ophelia couldn't help but regard the city with similar awe - staring out to the buildings, them all being in various stages of repair, but still impressive nonetheless. It was all quite the sight, this little jewel out in the middle of the Shining Sea, and with the welcome, she couldn't help but murmur the name to herself, under her breath. "Ys..." ... She wondered what Mom and Dad would think, of a place like this. Her mother probably would find this all a bit much for her, but Callus... If Callus was a more civilized digimon like Valt, like she and her siblings believed, then would he be at home here...?

"Heh, ya heard that right! Indeed I was there!" considering that the most denizen of Digital Worlds only gone up to Perfect and with Ultimate is in realm of "absurdly rare", Super Ultimates are mostly regarded as myth. But even then, Valt was there. It wasn't all happy, and there are times where he have no idea what to do with his life, but in the end he goes 'ah screw this' and just do what he's good at, trying to keep Digital World in order.
"Well, you tasted quite a bit of my strength, what do you think? Strong enough?" Valt instead countered cheekily.
Still, looks like she's still very awestruck about the new place. Valt grinned. "Yeah, this is our home. This is the places where we return to, the city with still unearthed potential! Well, honestly, I have no idea just how much is hidden under here, but one thing for sure is that our mission is to fill this city with inhabitant, make it grow bigger, and eventually become something like a capital city of the Northern Prominence, something as big as Terminus! Well, that's the dream of my friend and dear leader, hah."
It might be hidden inside a gigantic cave, but even then, imagining this city growing so huge... Valt can't help but to get excited at that prospect.
"Want to go exploring or something?"
