He still couldn't regenerate. Such a shame, but at this point, he had little reason to expect anything else. His sword had long since been an absolute tool, something he seldom used since fighting had lost its never existing charm. He ignored the note of him no longer holding the horror he once held, he was sure he could change that within the span of a few seconds. "Ya know Ais, I'm starting to think you aren't even trying to learn." He retorted, he didn't bother with the theatrics of tearing his blade through the back of his spine, mainly because in this form he didn't know if it was even possible with the sword being even larger than his Mass.
He then responded with his own inquiry, one that he was almost certain he knew was redundant. "You know I can regenerate why would you even bother asking?" His skull features twisted in confusion at the inquiry before lowering his frame. The stance wasn't designed for this form, he lacked the natural reach, the size advantage and weight all to his movements as he took a single step forward, the shaking of the ground absent from his quaking step as he lowered his posture, an arm outstretched while the other tucked at his side in open palms to quickly snatch Ais the minute he struck.
This, however, never was to occur, the minute he threw a punch Ais vanished from sight, his brow line raised as he continued to look forward until the sound of flesh meeting what he thinks he once saw in some Sci-Fi Cult Classic, his leg crumpled rather quickly, turning to see Ais had made an effective blow. Dantalion returned in kind, however, the severage of the leg was a short lived victory as his body began to swell and grow if Ais was gonna play smart, then he might as well play with all the cards on the table.
At first, it started with a tear, the flesh stretching thin and leaving long strands of cracks along his body, the coat of flesh and blood dissipated into his chest as his neck started to twist and churn out the length, long visceral cuts drawn deep red and white snapped across the lengthening growth. Where a wound had been made red blots started to grow and take over, swelling over the cut and filling in the gap with red muscle as slowly he took back his normal form, the arms swelled massively as finally, all the darkened skin popped off, hanging on with a loose grip onto his red skin before turning a mismatch of colours to Ais.
With his more comfortable form taken,t eh ground rightfully dipping under his mass he raised one of his lower arms high before swinging it down on Ais, slicing for the side of his body to knock him away and get some distance between the two. He lacked the right mindset for fighting, instead of going for the same tactic as before in a vain attempt to get him in the right position.

"It was supposed to be a clever callback!" Ais called in response to Dantalion's question about why Ais would ask if he could regenerate. His attack seemed successful at least, his blade tearing through the flesh and muscle of the demon's leg. That wouldn't be nearly enough to take him down and Ais knew that. Still, this wasn't a bad start. Ais stopped his slide a few meters behind Dantalion, righting himself as the demon took on his regular form, sprouting extra arms from his back. Ais leaped out of the way of Dantalion's smash, allowing more distance between the two.
A smirk crossed Ais's lips. "This has been a long time coming, my friend. Know that I do not normally partake in friendly battles, but for you I shall make an exception. You have intrigued me. Ever since we first discovered one another all those months ago. I am eager for this chance to test my power against yours." The Changeling's smirk grew as he got in his stance, a frosty blue aura erupting around his body. The energy blade in particular swelled with the extra power.
"Now, let's go!" Ais charged at Dantalion, attempting to deliver a solid vertical slash to him from the front with his Rending Split technique, then zipping away if he could and striking from the back with his energy blade, then from the right, then from the left. Ais would continue his assault like this, curious to see how Dantalion would get out of this situation.

The hollows of his face narrowed and contorted, Ais dropping his weights and going as all out as he could with frosty blue filling the air around him. Dantalion met him in kind, a dance of lights swirling purple and green to match his own spectacle not to be outdone as a small vortex opened up behind him, an echo and choir of noise following in the breeze as his output apparently doubled, when in truth he was merely putting on his own light show though giving a small breadth of a view into the Demon Realm.
As Ais spoke, it brought up an old memory. Does... Does he not remember the whole deal with Xylo? We were sparing... Were we? He mulled over the thought in his mind, slowly ti came to fruition that Ais was right, in the entire time he knew the man neither one of them had ever engaged in battle, which was strange considering Ais' determination to seemingly fight everything. "Yes. You're right Ais. Come, let me see how powerful you have grown since Arcose." His words swelled and moaned with power and anticipation, his baritone voice temporarily mimicked by the void of life that had manifested behind him before slowly cracks began to form, a few words that surrounded it began to falter and wheezing breaths of life the thing was already crumbling.
As Ais approached, blade swollen on what he assumed was Ais' pride alone he vanished into thin air, a mere figment of his form all that was left as it was severed in twain all that was really left behind was the vortex and even that was starting to fade into fiction as Babau and Quasit began to make their approach to freedom from their accursed land. Only for their slice to be shutter and collapse around them, only limbs managing to escape before Dantalion made his return behind Ais. He had no time for pleasantries, else cut in twain by his burning blade, instead his two upper most arms snatched Ais by his arms, pulling him up and meeting him with a flurry of blows from his other four limbs before tossing him into a boulder and following up with a few Ki Pot Shots to the lad. "Come on Ais, let us make the world shudder underneath the might of our battle!" He retorted, spreading hsi body wide in a mockery of the classic Arcosian pose.

Ais's smirk grew as his attck seemingly hit its mark, a trail if blue light following the path of the tip of Ais's energy blade. Ais's smirk soon faded, however, when the wispy image of his target vanished. 'What!? How!?' Ais was completely caught off-guard by this, and so was powerless when Dant grabbed him from behind by the arms, peppering his body with several blows from his other four arms. Ais's eyes bulged with each shot, spittle flying from his mouth. Dantalion then threw him towards a boulder, but Ais managed to right himself in midair just in time to see the bundles of energy the demon sent his way.
Ais growled and bat each of the blasts away with his left arm, slicing the last one in half with the right hand that had his blade as he rocketed towards Dantalion. His expression was quite serious now. He was completely in the zone. As he zoomed towards his opponent, the Changeling lord pulled his fist back before attempting a heavy punch once he got in range, followed up by two quick slashes to the abdomen. Should he succeed, he would then attempt to fly above Dantalion's head and to his back, attempting a quick stab to the middle of his back.
A slightly manic grin spread across Ais's face as Dantalion mentioned them having a battle to make the world itself shudder. That was quite tempting. Should Ais remove these weights and enter his final form, he could certainly give Dantalion that sort of battle. But that wasn't what he was looking for right now. That battle would come one day, when he gained enough power to believe himself to be a challenge for the demon. For now, he would use this battle as a stepping stone to that glorious day.

He stood in that position before crutching over from the blow, retaliating should have come faster but instead, he held the position for those seconds too long only just managing to turn the slices into mere flesh wounds instead of full blown servers in his skin. But all was still lost, just as he managed to regain his balance he felt his skin pop and boil, a deep wound tore through his skin like a molten knife through flesh, his body cringed and coiled, head reaching up in an echoing choir of pain before turning with a burnt light in his eyes.
Two of his arms reeled back, grabbing him by the arm and legs respectively as his mouth twisted into a jubilant grin. "You should try learning." He stated, his arms didn't fly into a flurry of blows, rather the spinal pricks along his back slowly shifted into a single straight line right down his back, making sure not to slice open any critical organs but being deep enough to make him feel his own pain tenfold. He slowly pulled himself into position, his feet creating a small crater into the ground to give him ample opportunity to make sure the impact would create a proper bang as he manifested his signature clouds around his feet, ascending him up as his fingers coiling and tightening around Ais' limbs to make absolutely sure he wasn't snapping free.
As he hovered up his glee slowly vanished, the clouds growing thinner and thinner underneath his every step up to the heavens before there was nothing more than a single ball holding him up high. "You ready for a ride, Lord Ais?" His words mocked him as he slowly fell into the manic game of rage fueled joy, he hadn't felt amped for a fight since Daria and considering he hadn't seen head nor hair of them since Somatotrope passed away, he doubted he was going to be getting one anytime soon.
Finally, the last bulb that had so hesitantly managed to keep them afloat vanished, Dantalion began his flight downwards into the small crater, sure it seemed like overkill, but hell what another type of kill was there. He braced Ais at his back, preparing to teach him a lesson about using potentially lethal force in a friendly sparring match. Sure he could regenerate, but that didn't take away from the fact his spine was very close to being severed and he left paralysed for a couple of days.

Ais's smirk grew ever wider as his successful blows on Dantalion cut rather deep. Things were going better than expected. He had certainly grown in power since he and his friend last attempted a spar. His ancestral homeland made him stronger than he ever was before. Finally, he the fruits of his labor were manifesting to the point where he could go toe-to-toe with someone who was much stronger than him and could have swat him away like a gnat not long ago. His thoughts of celebration were cut short, however, as two of Dantalion's extra limbs reached back and grabbed him by his arm and leg. "D-Damn it!" Ais struggled against the demon's iron grip.
Higher and higher they began to rise as Dant casually walked up a stairway of clouds, carrying him higher and higher. 'Damn it, what is he planning!?' The Changeling had no idea what Dantalion was trying to do nor how he could get out of this hold without transforming. His friend was much bigger than he was, so keeping him like this was likely pretty easy. As the rose to the summit of their ascent, Ais got an idea as to what the demon was planning.
"You ready for a ride, Lord Ais?"
The Changeling's eyes widened. 'No...' He struggled even harder against the hold, but it was in vain. As the final cloud that held them up vanished, they began to plummet to the ground. Ais growled and roared with effort, using his free fist to throw punch after punch at his captor as he tried harder than ever to get out of this sticky situation. Dantalion was liable to crush him like a bug! "No no no no NO!" Then they collided with the ground, a massive "BOOM" resounding throughout the plains, a massive shockwave of pressurized air spreading out over the battlefield, causing trees to sway wildly.
Ais was caught between a rock and a hard place; LITERALLY. The ground at his back and Dantalion at his front, he was wondering if now would be the right time to give up. Ais's opponent might wonder if he killed the Changeling by accident, but he would know for sure soon. "Ow..." A tiny voice squeaked out from under the demon's massive form. The Arcosian lord remained under Dantalion, thinking and recovering for a second. 'Screw it, i'm done.' Ais's energy blade faded and he tapped out on Dantalion's shoulder with his free hand. "I give. You win." The muffled voice of Ais came from the demon's back. Thankfully, Arcosian's had durable bodies. Otherwise, that attack might have crippled him. "Good... game."

Dantalion slowly rolled over at the utterance of surrender, his breath parched and drawn out from the sound of a resonating boom, his chest in a heave as he turned his head to Ais. "Ya sure? Don't wanna...." His every word drawn out before looking back up and slowly drawing himself up "Ya know. Have another stab at it?" He retorted as he pulled himself up to a knee and looked around. Maybe this wasn't the best idea since now someone had to fill it up. And he was pretty sure that person was gonna be him.
As he rolled up he looks to Ais, catching his breath in the process he recalled what he was even doing before this had even started. "So, Ais. I think your break is finished. You ready to get back to work doing paper work or..." He paused, looking at his current state. He didn't think he was in much of a position to do work. Hell, he didn't think he was even going to do any paperwork when he was actually there, more so just make a bunch of paper planes and throw them around the office.
He patted him on the shoulder, looking him up and down with a deadpan stare, he might have gone just a little too far this time. "Well, Ya know sleep here for a bit and catch up on work tomorrow?" He inquired before pulling himself up to full height and taking his leave of the crater with clouds forming beneath his every step as he made himself a mismatched elevator and leave from the crater which he either had to fill in at a later date, or simply give it a name and status of 'Legacy' just so he didn't have to go finding the dirt all over again.

Ais laid in the crater formed by the impact of he and his demon friend. He tried to get up as Dantalion moved off of him, but the weight of his own broken body dragged him back down. At the mere mention of work, the Changeling groaned in pain and displeasure. After that beating, the last thing he wanted to do was go and push around some papers. "I-I think i'll leave that to you, o mighty Dantalion, puncher of words... onto paper." He said Dantalion's full title through his breaking voice. "I think... I think i'm just gonna sleep this off, so... uh... tell Cello i'll be back soo--." And that was it.
Ais fell unconscious before he even finished the last word. Honestly, the Changeling could have picked a better spot to lie down, but people in his situation didn't have the luxury to pick where they pass out. While it was a thrashing, Ais actually had a bit of fun testing out a little bit of his newfound power. This war had tempered him and made him grow stronger. Ais knew this, and that was why he would continue to fight. The next time he encountered Kaza, things would go differently. He would make sure of that. As Ais laid there, dreaming of his future and the gaining of greater power, a frog made its way to the frost demon and landed on his face, causing him to stir slightly, but just long enough to smack the creature away.
Ais would be out for awhile, it seemed.
Thread exit! Lol that was fun. Thanks for the thread Dant! Sorry this post took so long. I... thought I had already posted. >< I really need to just open a thread when I plan on posting.
