Mosaic City, located along China's coast, is quite large city sometimes called the Crossroads Between Nations due to its diverse population. While it was once a large tourist spot, the city was placed under a blockade as the military appeared claiming there was a radiation leak. The true hazard, however, is much more sinister.

Hot from my win against the flaming giant from a mythical age, I caught my breath and regained my composure, continuing on my way through exploring the dark caverns. All I needed to do was score another big shot and I would be hightailing it out of here. The Shadows here were fairly tough and somewhat dangerous and while the extra experience is greatly appreciated, it's not exactly something I want to be playing with too much. My body does have its own limits and I do not appreciate being thrown around against the walls like a rag doll, despite my reasonably high opinion of my body's constitution and resilience. Sighing, I continued down the dark path of the labyrinthine caverns and hoped I could retrace my steps back once I required a retreat from this particular area.

Looking around, I saw a terrifying variant of a tiara that had teeth. And a protrusion beneath its frame that made it look like it wanted to take a bite out of something. I couldn't tell if it could sense me, but my question was answered as soon as it rattled and started to release a blaze of fire at me, which I covered myself with my arm, and felt the heat strike me, though compared to when I was starting out fighting these Shadow creatures this was absolutely nothing. I hadn't felt too much aside from a burning sensation like what happens when you touch a really hot pan during cooking. While that did hurt and would probably leave marks, it was no first degree burn. Pulling out my knife I rushed at the tiara and slashed it with my blade, employing 'Heaven's Blade' once more and realizing I easily cracked its surface.
It flinched back, flying backwards at an intense speed. It started to vibrate and charge up with some fierce electricity, and soon it zapped me with a spell I was all too familiar with, as I was using it myself very often. You'd think that a spell someone was proficient with using would also be resistant to it, but that was not the case with me. I yelped a little from the static shock and shook a little, recoiling from the electricity that coursed through my body. Whirling my knife about I rushed at the tiara to slash it once more, and it cracked even more. Though, it still shook and vibrated, and soon charged at me in response.
It turned itself and attempted to impale its pointy spokes at me with an incredible force, which I tried to block with my arm, but all I got in response was a tiara piercing into my arm, which, compared to the fire and electric spell, hurt like a motherfucking ARGH and I flinched in response. Looks like we had each other's weaknesses. However, I struck at the enemy again with my heavenly slash, and managed to bisect it once more, causing it to dissipate into nothingness as it cracked and shattered. However, looking at my arm, which was profusely bleeding and looked like some deranged dog had bitten into me at several spots, I figured I should be leaving right about now.
