Prince saw how the man took the techniques in full effect and pretty much shrugged it off. Although it may have hurt him, it obviously was not much. The man had asked her what her problem was, and she had none...
"Only one of us can make it to that art!...if..." Rui began to scream but slowly and surely stopped mid sentence as something beyond Rui's sight screamed some sort of comprehensible language. Rui, being the natural genius, knew there were no others around that close for her to hear the voice that clearly. The voice had to have come from that man in some way, shape or form but she couldn't tell how or even what... Maybe a small summon with a large voice attached to him? What could that hideous voice possibly be?
But in an instant, a gust of wind blew a clear path from the man to Rui, clearing their vision but Rui could not react fast enough, having the technique blow her down like a little twig... "Sheesh..." she said. "This man has some power..." she mumbled under her breath as she rubbed the back of her head. Although hardy, she was somewhat lazy, like some Nara are. Inherit the genius and the lazy... Of course...
"I don't know what you are..." Rui said quite seriously. Not knowing what the person could have been with that voice she had heard earlier. And finishing her earlier sentiments... "But only one of us can get that artifact. And it cannot be you. Because I cannot fail..." she said smugly. The wind blast had severely hurt Rui... And it fatigued her enough for her to realize she shouldn't get touched by this person or any of their techniques. He was... Strong...
She would again focus her chakra into the ground, having the earth beneath the man protrude spikes to pierce him, she also focused on his shadow while doing so, needing to subdue him in the near future if she wanted to actually survive such an encounter. This was like a damn boss battle already...
