Chapter 152: Two Sides of the Sa Coin
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
rlin cast Frost, which was incredibly powerful when fused with Large Frost. It was unbelievably close to reaching a First-level spell, and considering his strong Magic Power, the spell could be released continuously without fail.
The cloaked man’s Bright Wind was also very impressive. As one after another struck, rlin would have to build up even more Magic Power to prop up an Earth Guard, or else he would not be able to resist any longer.
“Dark Mist!”
This ti, rlin cast a strengthened form of Dark Mist. Despite possessing nearly peak Second-level Mind Power, even the silver-haired old man felt a slight blow from it.
This gave rlin confidence in his spell.
However, as he released the strengthened form of Dark Mist and allowed it to surround the cloaked man, a strong force of Mind Power ca rushing from the sky towards rlin.
Upon experiencing such Mind Power, rlin’s expression changed slightly. Such strong Mind Power seed even more terrifying than that of the silver-haired old man, it was almost to the extent of a Third-level Spell Caster.
The strengthened form of Dark Mist might have dealt so damage to a Spell Caster with Second-level peak Mind Power. However if it was with a Third-level Spell Caster, his spell would simply have no effect.
“Thunderbolt Net!”
Since the strengthened form of Dark Mist was useless, rlin could only put up a hard fight. He imdiately cast a strengthened form of Thunderbolt Net.
In an instant, the sky was filled with massive thunders and lightning. As the ground was filled with ice crystals, and a cold breeze filled the air, the spell quickly attacked the cloaked man.
“Earth Wall!”
Earth-elent quickly ford on the cloaked man’s body. His Earth-elent was much stronger than rlin’s strengthened form of Earth Guard. Since Thunderbolt Net was only effective on the surface, it only made the cloaked man shift slightly.
Only Large Frost was able to freeze the entirety of it, but just as rlin was about to bombard him with Fireball, the cloaked man propped up an Earth Wall once more.
As a result, rlin felt quite helpless. He had no way of defeating the cloaked man, as the cloaked man had only cast Wind-type and Earth-type spells, there were more spells that he had not conjured yet. In that mont, rlin knew he had to stay alert.
“Raining Fla!”
Suddenly, the cloaked man cast another spell. Rich Fire-elents erged from his body, and the skies turned a fiery red color. Droplets of blaze ca falling from the sky like rain forcing rlin to take cover.
rlin was alert from the start and quickly cast a new spell, and as expected, his opponent had conjured a wide-range attack. However rlin was ready this ti. As soon as the cloaked man had launched his attack, Wind-elent erged from rlin’s body in a wave-like motion.
“Gale!”
rlin’s silhouette stepped back in a flash, escaping the area that was being attacked by Raining Fla.
“Huh? How can you be a Six-Elental Spell Caster and still try to escape? Ice Trap!”
The cloaked man sneered and once again cast an Ice-type and Binding spell. It was clear, the cloaked man was a powerful First-level Four-Elental Spell Caster.
rlin was slightly frightened. He had depended on his Magic Power, it was not often that he could be restrained by an opponent’s spell. If only the cloaked man had not cast Ice Trap, rlin would still have a chance to slowly maintain his dominance and eventually kill him.
However, the opponent was a Four-Elental Spell Caster and a First-level Wizard. As Dark Mist was no use at this point, rlin had only one option left, he had to defend himself and put up a hard fight.
“Earth Guard!”
rlin quickly conjured the Earth-type Defensive spell. The opponent’s Ice Trap and Bright Wind continued to attack, which forced rlin to conjure a strengthened form of Earth Guard after every three common spells, leaving him depleted of Magic Power.
Luckily, rlin had used elental crystal stones earlier, this allowed him to accumulate Magic Power from every Zero-level spell as each one gave the ability to cast sixty or seventy spells. If The Matrix had not rebuilt the Spell Model, it was simply impossible for it to expand to store such a powerful accumulation.
rlin’s plan was to out maneuver the cloaked man till he expended his Magic Power.
As he continued to defend himself, rlin kept up his furious attacks with Fireball, Frost and Thunderbolt Net. With vigorous Magic Power and innurable successions of various attacks, the cloaked man went into a fury. He raised an Earth Guard once more, using up a great deal of his Magic Power.
Both were now caught up in an awkward predicant where they both had used up too much of their energy!
At rlin’s current strength, to defeat a similar First-level Spell Caster was not a problem. However, the opponent was a First-level Spell Caster, with powerful and a rather large reservoir of Magic Power. His various spells were cast fluently with incredible Mind Power. As Dark Mist was useless, rlin felt that he no longer stood a chance, but kept putting up a hard fight.
The cloaked man was also getting angry. Once he received news from Wizard Neil, he rushed over. However, Wizard Neil failed to inform him of rlin’s strength. He had only ntioned that he was a Six-Elental Spell Caster.
Who would have known that this Six-Elental Spell Caster would be this terrifying? He had noticed that rlin’s most impressive spell was Dark Mist. If it were not for his Mind Power and experiences, he could be compared to a Third-level Spell Caster. However, if he had been drawn into the illusion created by rlin’s Dark Mist, he feared it would be a grim outlook
The cloaked man was furious at Wizard Neil. There was no way for him to escape. He could only hold his ground in hopes that rlin would soon waste away his Magic Power. However, it had been half an hour and rlin still had Magic Power. The cloaked man could not hold him off for much longer.
Suddenly, the cloaked man ceased casting his Raining Fla. From the looks of it, it would appear that his Magic Power was almost exhausted from fueling Raining Fla . At the sa ti because rlin was continuously casting Fireball and Frost, he was also running low on Magic Power. He was firing off a dozen or so of Fireball or Frost in order for it be enough to break the cloaked man’s Earth Wall.
Thus, rlin abruptly ceased his Fireball and Frost attacks as well. He could only continue to cast Thunderbolt Net and maintain his Defensive spell, Earth Guard.
Another half an hour passed, both of the caster’s faces was turning pale when suddenly, the cloaked man removed his hood and revealed his true face.
The man was about 30 years of age with fair skin. However, on the left side of his face bore a big scar. It was terrifying to look at, it was no wonder why he wore a cloak.
rlin was already used to seeing Wizard Pario’s terrifying looks. Compared to the cloaked man’s looks, it was not a bother to him. It did make him curious, what was the cloaked man up to.
The cloaked man looked at rlin. He was on his guard and kept his Earth Wall propped up as he said to rlin,”Wizard rlin, I am Vyksa. I was tricked by Wizard Neil and that was why I ca to kill you. However, Wizard Neil is now dead. You and I cannot deal with each other. Why don’t we give up and stop casting any more spells? Let us walk away from this fight. What do you say?”
By this point, rlin was only putting up a strong front,. His biggest advantage, Dark Mist, had already been rendered useless against his powerful opponent who had Third-level Mind Power. That was how he had gotten into that Magic Power showdown with the cloaked man.
Even though he wanted to call it a day, he knew he could not trust the cloaked man as he looked towards Wizard Neil’s burnt body, he laughed coldly and said, “Wizard Vyksa, it would seem you were rather familiar with Wizard Neil just a while ago. What a terrifying thing to happen, but this isn’t the first ti, is it?”
The cloaked man looked at Wizard Neil’s corpse and grudgingly shook his head, “You’re right. I used to be a roaming wizard when I t Wizard Neil. He had been looking for , he told that there was a quick thod where I could get my hands on all types of potion materials and Spell Models. Hehe, you would have guessed by now. Wizard Neil’s plan was to kill the Spell Casters that worked in the Dark Magic Region.
rlin’s heart sank. As expected, Wizard Neil had tead up with roaming wizards to assassinate the Spell Casters of the Dark Magic Region. With him in the Dark Magic Region, he could get a better understanding of the Spell Casters and ambush them when it was least expected. His plan would have had great success rates.
This ti, Wizard Neil was planning to use the old trick to kill rlin. That was why he picked the location and even called upon a much stronger wizard, Wizard Vyksa. If Wizard Ryllis had not reminded rlin which allowed him to be prepared, things would have taken a turn for the worse.
As rlin’s expression grew gloomy, the cloaked man said, “Wizard rlin, we don’t have to fight to the death. You are a Six-Elental Spell Caster with a promising future. As for , I have already built up Four-Elental spells and was just successfully promoted to First-level Spell Caster, with hopes of one day becoming even a Second or Third-level Spell Caster. If we die here, it won’t be worth it. What do you say?”
With that, the cloaked man ceased casting his Ice Trap. He had no more Magic Power to complete the Spell Model for Ice Trap. He and rlin alike, had no more Magic Power for a Wind-type, Fire-type nor Ice-type spells. He still had Earth Wall up, but even that seed as if it would not last for much longer.
rlin was in the sa predicant. With the exception of Dark Mist, Gale and Earth Guard, he had no Magic Power left. Even with an Earth Guard, he barely had much Magic Power left.
As for Dark Mist, it had no effect against the cloaked man who had Third-level Mind Power and Gale was not an Offensive spell. rlin had but one choice.
“Fine, let us cease our spells and take three steps back!”
rlin agreed with the cloaked man’s proposition and began to tear down his Earth Guard as the cloaked man did the sa with Earth Wall. However, they both knew clearly, that even if they had not removed their defenses, their Magic Power would run dry with no way to cast another spell.
However as rlin stepped back, another elental crystal stone appeared in his hand. It was one he had hidden under his ring. He slyly took it out and used it to restore so Magic Power.
“Wizard rlin, I hope you are still keeping your promise. Remove the elental crystal stone from your hand.”
The cloaked man said quickly with a deepened voice.
rlin replied with a slight chuckle, “Wizard Vyksa, I should say the sa to you as well. Let us not play these silly gas and keep that elental crystal stone away.”
It was apparent that as they both stepped back, they each took out elental crystal stones sneakily to restore their Magic Power.
Both wizards chuckled lightly, feeling as if they were simply two sides of the sa coin and placed their elental crystal stones away.
“One, two, three steps! Alright, let us now slowly turn our bodies!”
The cloaked man stared blankly as he said with a deepened voice. Both n were on high alert as they gradually turned away from each other.
“Swish!”
Suddenly, both wizards turned back sharply. There was a hint of madness across their fa
