I looked at that guy observing with a furious expression before he gazed at his brother with a slightly saddened look. He chanted sothing and a water ball ford around the broken arm of his brother as his arm began to heal at a rapid rate.
"If you cut your arm right now. I will forget that this ever happened," spoke that guy as he pointed towards , more precisely towards my right arm. I look at him and at his unreasonable demands.
Analysing his expression, it did not look like he was going to change his mind on this one. I sighed before turning to the VIP area as I glanced at Nyx, who was looking at Favian. Zuriel, Dion and the others are observing with a casual look, most probably wondering what I will do now. The only one who was worried about was Pleo, who did not know much about .
'Looks like I need to go all out with my artefacts and show my cards which I can afford to, using only Light and Life magic. Though, obviously I won't be using Hygeia's power,' I thought as I then took out all the artefacts from my space storage.
One… ten… hundred… two hundred and thirty-four in total….
I just let them fly in the surrounding air, while controlling them with my Light magic. Everyone in the audience including Nyx and the others looked like they were really shocked by what they were witnessing, even the brother of that noble guy looks shocked as he observes .
"Such precise… mana control," spoke that guy as he looked at carefully. This ti, he didn't have fury in his expression, but more like all that fury was replaced by excitent or sothing.
"I apologise for looking down on you, young lad. Looks like you have sothing that even the best one of us failed to achieve," he spoke as he looked at like I was his equal. He then continued speaking.
"Your reaction tells that you are quite confused about what I am saying… but it's fine. For now, just fight with your level best and I will explain everything after we are done."
He spoke but honestly I understood everything, just that I was confused how things ca to this? It's kinda… uninteresting to , to be honest.
He then looked at the VIP seats and Favian just nodded at him. I looked at Nyx, looking at with slight worry in her eyes too… sigh… this is troubling in many ways…
This guy is probably at the level of a High Guardian. Defeating him will inevitably gather unnecessary attention, but not doing it will also create so problems too…
'Hmmm… Well… let's defeat him. I still have a lot of hidden cards so it is fine… probably,' I thought as I then looked at the counter, starting again as it began going down. I started analysing the situation carefully before formulating a proper battle plan.
Not long before, the ti hit 0 and…
-BOOOOMMMM!!!!!
I could see him almost reaching and using my precise mana control, I enhanced my jumping ability and reflex muscles, which helped dodge a powerful sword strike that ca directly at .
I then used the artifacts to blend in with the surroundings and create an illusion in my place.While it may not be helpful for long, it will give enough ti to analyse him and get a clear picture of his fighting style.
He was using a sword made up of water, but looking at his posture and how he proceeded to slash , I believe he is a dual sword user. Also, his main attributes are strength and mana along with so attack power too. While he depends upon his mana for his defensive ability.
'I guess, I can depend upon my reflexes and go for stronger slashes one at a ti instead of multiple slashes at once,' I thought before taking out the chained scythe, which I had bought earlier from the weapon smith.
'The one who paid for this was Nyx though,' I thought as I wondered if there was anyway I could repay her later. I then see that there were a few people looking at with a rather strange look than others…
'Is… sothing else is going on here?' I couldn't help but think that way but… oh well, whatever. Let's deal with this first,' I sighed as I shook my head and saw that guy approaching my illusion again. This ti I made my illusion brilliantly dodge his attack, which I think worked quite nicely, because he was quite excited to hit my illusion as he kept using combos one after another.
I then began moving towards him as well, using my scythe, waiting for the right mont and just a few monts later I saw that chance that I was waiting for.
First, I let his attacks hit my illusion, which kind of tripped him. Then, using that chance, I used another clone a bit away from him to hit him using a scythe, which he brilliantly dodged. Though, as he dodged, I concentrated all my power on the tip of my chained-scythe and hit him in his heart.
I also took so extra efforts to sink in so Light magic in his blood vessels around the heart to make it over excited and tear enough apart to damage him considerably but not enough to kill him. And the result was…
-Cough Cough
I saw him coughing up so blood as he looked at with a really puzzled expression as he fell down before losing his consciousness. The Light magic within him won't disappear this ti, unlike I did with his brother's right arm. In fact, it will heal him making sure he doesn't die and get him back to normal in about an hour or so.
I looked around to see that the crowd had turned completely silent as of now.There gazes shifted from to that guy and then once again back to … and not even a mont after…
-WOOOOOO!!!!!!
-That was AMAZING!!!!
-HOW DID YOU DO IT?!!!!
-ZERO!!
-ZERO!!
-ZERO!!
The crowd began crazily cheering for as a few n jumped down towards the guy and checked his vitals, only to be shocked before darting their gazes at . At first, when they jumped down, they had a furious expression on their faces with traces of fear in them, but now they were looking at with a gratified expression.
They even bowed to in front of the whole crowd and took not only him but his little brother too, who was shocked more than anyone else as he looked at . One of those n who took the injured brothers, went up to Favian and spoke sothing, making everyone who heard it turn towards with a flabbergasted expression.
'I hope this makes things at least a little bit smoother for .' I kinda wished everything was settled now and so idiot wouldn't co knocking for revenge, which is really annoying, to be honest.
The crowd, however, was still wild as they kept cheering for over and over. Looks like I won so respect or perhaps a lot of respect here. Even those at the VIP stand were looking at with a faint smile, and I could feel the change in the atmosphere around them. Heck, so were even happy enough to show joy, though whether they were happy about winning or not was still questionable.
'More like they seem happy that they have gained another strong person to fight alongside them with the resistance thingy,' I could only give out an awkward smile at them as I looked at Nyx and the others who kind of looked happy? Hmmm… looks like I really did a good job here.
After that I received so money and a silver badge donating that I had the power level of a High Guardian or sothing before they sent off with a happy smile. The female receptionist even gave her address as she winked before moving away while a few wealthy n tried approaching as soon as I stepped out of the arena.
Though, with the help of Nyx and the others, I swiftly moved from there and reached a particular house where windows were stacked with books, a lot of them. The door looked a bit old-fashioned with all those vines placed around the plain design of that door.
-Knock Knock
I knocked on the door and not long after, the door opened, showing the features of a petite brown-haired girl with round glasses and ssy hair. She had a grey coloured plain dress on and her green gem-like eyes looking at with a smile as she welcod ,
"You are late. Did sothing happen?"
Ariel Sphyne, the girl with whom I had been researching the magic of this world and how it works. Despite being careless, most of the ti she is a fine lady. She is mature enough to deal with her problems without asking for anyone's help and she prefers a peaceful life with her books and research rather than adventures outside.
She lacks common sense, but her high IQ and intelligence make up for it. Few of her artefacts and magic theories had actually brought her enough wealth to let her live here in this Asul Extension, where only the wealthiest can stay.
I had been visiting her since the first day and most of the ti I am actually with her rather than in the city. At least one-third of my day is spent with her, to be honest. While there was so tension between us in the beginning due to our lack of information about each other, with ti that too dissolved and we beca fast friends and research buddies.
It wasn't just research that we did, but also shared so extra information about how things work on the Mountain of Heaven and stuff. While I also helped in cleaning the house, making things look much tidier than before and also bringing in so food to make the dinner.
She kinda fell in love with my cooking skills, but I still haven't told her about the at that ca from the monsters or else I don't know how she will react.
"Yeah, sothing happened," I spoke before actually narrating the whole thing that went down today and after everything was said and done, she looked at with a narrowed gaze before sighing and questioning,
"You defeated a High Guardian using only that much of your power? Damn kid! Didn't know you were that powerful. I always wondered how strong you really are and what will be your most powerful form… Tell sothing, kid, are you strong enough to take on Azem, the ruler of Asul?"
