Now, the chances of my second enemy being a [Pyromancer] are not that high, but neither are they low, right? But what are the chances of this man being a [Pyromancer] and being even fatter than the first? Like, is this the Nine Towers Academy, or is this a boot camp for overweight [Mages]? Next thing you know, Disney and HBO are making a docuntary about this.
A very nacing young Danny De Vito look-a-like strides to his position, his double chin held high and complacent.
You might have bested that shrew, but you are dreaming if you think you can do the sa with ! Ill show you the difference between an incompetent [Mage] and one that has trained for a decade! You buffoon! That pathetic display will not save you from
I stop listening.
Man, is this the Pokmon league? Did I miss sothing on the way? Like, how is this not the most clich response? Shouldnt there be more personalities among my opponents? Or are they all the cringy type of villain? I an, maybe they were cherry-picked based on how much they hate Humans.
Mh. That could be.
Talking about Humanswasnt this place supposed to be more multicultural
Begin!
Adrianas abrupt shout startles .
The man has already conjured a flaming shield and is quickly creating a giant and dangerous [Fireball]. Said [Fireball] never materializes. I was distracted when he made the shield, but now, Im here.
The [Pyromancer] tries to conjure [Fireballs] so hard Im getting worried. What if this guy has a stroke, and I kill him just like that? Man, I dont want an idiot like that weighing down on my conscience.
[Greater Chain Flash]
This is my signature spell to take care of stupid monsters in the Dungeon. Monsters dont really have any way to dodge a [Flash] variation to their eyes. And this is just brighter and repeated. Im immune to it by now. Lord Juler told that even the most idiotic [Mage] should have wards against that type of attack. In fact, he went on a massive tirade about personal wards during duels. Thats part of the reason I was so sick on the trip to the academ
AHHHH!
Huh?
The man is on the ground, clawing at his eyes.
Im blind! Im blind!
What?
I havent even put the [Flashes] near his eyes. I have learned my lesson from that ti with Princess Laura. I wouldnt risk this idiot losing his eyes even if he looked like he ate pastries all day instead of practicing [Fireballs].
I look at Adriana, whos standing at the edge of the arena and looking at with a stunned expression again.
? Wasnt I supposed to do that?
Is there a problem? I ask her.
Ahem! Joey Luciani blinds his enemy and wins!
Once again, I raise my big belt in the air and let the tal boxes run the chant. Then, I do the celebration once again while they ferry away the poor [Pyromancer]. That guy is going to hate light for a while.
This ti, I take my ti parading around shirtless and hat-full, with the belt above my head. I try to look as smug as possible, hoping that my personal smack-talk-cum-show will unsettle not just these opponents but also the actually dangerous ones. Yeah. Its tactics. I an, 50-50. Part of it is tactics to make them underestimate what Im capable ofthe other part is just being myself.
Ohhh. Shoot. I should have oiled up my torso. That would have made look all shiny, Lord Juler.
Noted.
As soon as they sort so stuff out, my next opponent is announced. Apparently, three out of three are [Pyromancers]. And fat. Is this a thing? Am I missing sothing? Are they fat because they can cook stuff on their own? Do [Pyromancers] have sothing to do with burning calories? Like, their class?
A [Pyromancer] doesnt need to be fat. Nor is there any benefit to it.
Well, thats an interesting lesson.
Why are they fat, then?
Elves. Like Teiko, they are a bunch of effeminate
And here we go with the casual sexism. I an, not that you would expect any super-progressive stances from a dieval [Lord] and [Supre Archmagus], would you?
As Im considering how to school Lord Juler on the importance of gender equality, sothing happens. Adriana has not announced the start of the match yet, but the fat [Pyromancer] raises a wand toward and insta-casts a [Fireball].
Little piece of sh
Ive trained my reflexes with the goddamn book and Lord Juler, you bastard. Did you think you could get away with this just because? And this idiot has not even raised his shield yet! He just wants to hit with a [Fireball].
Through [Advanced Mana Sense], I can see that his wand dies imdiately after one use. In fact, the [Fireball] coming out of it is no common [Fireball].
Thats a siege spell.
A [Siege Fireball] the size of two tall Elves starts moving toward . I dont think I have to explain that if that hit without any ward or protection on my body, it would cook alive in less than a second. This is not sothing you use in a duel; this is sothing you use to kill.
Anger courses through my veins at the sight of so much pettiness. How can a stupid Elf try to kill just because Im being an idiot? Whats in your head, sawdust?
And do you think you can kill with a pathetic [Siege Fireball]?
[Siege Fireballs] are very slow, especially when cast from wands. The polarity needed to move such behemoths is greater than one might think. And this idiot cast it in a straight line if you want to make it efficient, you should cast it high up in the sky and let gravity help.
The matrix of this whole thing is loose and shoddy, but its already in the real world. Theres no dispelling such a huge thing before it reaches . I could have done it if I had been more distant. But, alas, Ill have to brute-force it.
[Advanced Light Lance]
[Overcharged Polarization Field]
Thats a sweet skill I have acquired while ssing with photons and whatnot. And do you know what it does?
I overcharge the Mana in my [Advanced Light Lance], keeping it at its neutral elent. Then, I shape an [Overcharged Polarization Field] as you would with a portal. Think of it as a donut. And when [Advanced Light Lance] goes through it
