::As Devon was about to continue with his attack, vines sprouted from the ground from out of no way. He was greatly taken aback considering that this is in a commercialised building, with concrete flooring. Earth elementals are not to be trifled with. However, there was no time for contemplation as he began to feel searing pain on his skin with the vines wacking him. Raising his staff, flames emerged around him as his staff glowed, tapping into his magic. The flames formed a circle around him, burning the vines around him, which managed to slow down their beating. Now encased in a circimfrence of burning thorns, a black spiral forms with around Devon a low rumbling sound as he disappears and reappears outside the burning thorns in the same fashion, which prooved to be the only way to escape. The flames had slowed the thorns down enough to give him sufficient time to teleport out of the way. However, as he looked up, he could see that Jinx had regained her composure.::
"Well, i must say Earth elementals are quite hardy..."
::He then focused back on his battle, while thinking of what attack to use. He at first thought of calling for Crisp, but on second thought, no point tiring his dragon when things were still under his control. He then decided to go for another spell. This time, he made use of the power of the Book of Archane magic, and attempted to cast a higher leveled spell. A very evil spell at that, that will probably end the battle.::
"Mud, soil, Branches and leaves
Things you find everywhere.
You will become them
And be without a care"
Cast this spell and turn your foe into a harmless potted plant. they will be rendered inert for the rest of the battle and helpless against any attack that comes their way
::As Devon stared intently, hoping he had enough power to work the spell, Jinx magically transforms into a potted plant. The purchase of the Book of Archane magic was a wise choice. Devon contemplated on whether he should smash the plant, but held back considering she was a fellow MOE, and this was only a training battle. Devon walks up, and picks up the potted plant, incase other fighters smashes it by accident::
