Now that the attack has slowed down, Harry was able to easily dodge it by simply moving to the side.
Boom!
After Harry dodged it, the slash continued in its path before crashing into the wall behind him with a loud bang.
Smoke gently rose up from the wall due to the force of the crash, but even though that attacked contained a large amount of mana and power, it still didn’t manage to leave even a dent on the wall.
anwhile, Nathan’s eyes widened slightly in shock, as he watched Harry easily escape his attack.
He hadn’t actually ant to use such a powerful attack so early in the duel, he was simply caught up in the mont, so he instinctively used one of his more powerful attacks.
He had expected that attack to badly injure Harry, and he even felt quite remorseful after releasing the slash.
This was also why most people avoided fighting with Nathan; whether it was a simple duel or not. Holding back wasn’t exactly his strong forte, and whenever he was facing soone weaker than him, his opponent always ended up being seriously injured.
However, now that he realised Harry could even dodge his strong attacks, it basically ant he didn’t have to hold back anymore.
Just thinking about this, caused a wide smile to subconsciously bloom on his face.
’That was dangerous.’ Harry mumbled inwardly, with a slight frown. His gaze wandered back to Nathan, and his brows furrowed slightly in confusion when he noticed the wide smirk on the combat mage’s face.
He wasn’t even given the chance to think about what the weird smile ant, as Nathan suddenly charged at him once more, this ti with even greater speed.
However, unlike the last ti, the combat mage’s speed didn’t catch him off-guard.
With [Accelerate] still active, Harry’s speed and agility had more than doubled, and Nathan movents even seed a little slow in his eyes.
Nathan closed in on Harry, and in a split second, he skilfully swung his sword upward in a swift and decisive slash.
With the huge boost from [Accelerate], Harry was able to follow the attack quite easily, and he swiftly moved to the side, successfully escaping the slash.
Finally deciding to stop being on the defensive, Harry crouched slightly, with his palm pointed towards Nathan’s abdon.
’Lightning Ball!’ He thought, and imdiately blue lightning crackled around his palm, before rapidly forming into a small ball of lightning.
Blitz!!
Lightning danced violently around the ball, as it blasted towards Nathan, leaving a small trail of lightning.
Nathan’s eyes widened slightly in surprise when he saw how Harry easily evaded his attack, but he couldn’t think too much about that as Harry suddenly blasted a lightning ball towards him.
With a light grunt, Nathan swiftly leapt backwards, twisting the sword in his hands slightly, before countering the attack with a precise slashing motion.
Blitz!!
The lightning sparks around the ball crackled even more violently as Nathan’s sword clashed with it mid-air.
With a deep frown on his face, Nathan hurriedly channeled mana into his sword, in a bid to slice the annoying lightning ball into two.
However, to his surprise, he wasn’t able to cut through the attack in one clean slash, even after strengthening his sword with mana.
It was as if sothing within the lightning ball was resisting against his mana, and the more he kept trying to cut through it, the more powerful the lightning ball grew.
’How the hell is a... tier one spell this powerful?!’ Nathan thought, with gritted teeth.
Harry, seeing Nathan distracted, didn’t waste anyti before launching another attack.
’Wind Blade!’ He thought, and in an instant, three sharp, thin blades manifested out of thin air in front of him, before shooting towards the combat mage at breakneck speed.
Seeing the new attacks flying towards him, Nathan’s brows furrowed into a slight frown.
Due to the fast-incoming attacks flying towards him, Nathan was forced to give up on cutting through the lightning ball, and simply deflected it to the side instead.
The lightning ball continued on its new path for a new more seconds, before exploding into a series of blue sparks.
Channeling even more mana through his swords, Nathan swiftly parried the wind blades, though eting so resistance.
Thrumm!!
A thick yellow hue suddenly lit up from the bottom of his sword, before rapidly spreading all over the blade, coating it in a thin, yellow aura.
’That again.’ Harry thought, with his brows furrowed slightly.
’Lightning Ball.’ He thought, hurriedly activating the skill once more.
This ti, he didn’t plan on giving Nathan the chance to launch such a terrifying slash like the last ti, so his plan was to bombard him with nurous attacks before the combat mage even had the chance to attack.
Blitz!!
Blitz!!
Instantly, ten lightning balls appeared in front of Harry before shooting towards Nathan at insane speed.
’His spell activation speed is so fast! Too fast!’ Nathan thought, with a deep frown on his face.
The size of the balls were a little smaller compared to the last one, and weren’t as powerful individually, but they compensated for it with their ridiculous speed.
In a split second, the lightning attacks closed in on Nathan, however, rather than panic, the edges of his lips curled into a slight smirk.
Blitz!!
Blitz!!!
Violent blue sparks flickered all around the lightning balls, and their shape rapidly beca more erratic as they prepared to detonate.
Just as the balls were about to explode, Nathan bent his knees in a swift motion, leaning forward, as he hurriedly pumped mana into his legs.
Whoosh!!
Blitzzz!!!
Suddenly, his figure vanished from the midst of the lightning attacks, and in the next millisecond, all the lightning balls exploded into a violent and powerful series of blue, electrifying sparks.
’Huh?’ Harry thought in confusion, seeing such weird pose, but he wasn’t able to complete his thoughts as Nathan’s figure suddenly vanished from his sight.
The next thing he knew, his ears picked up on an odd presence approaching him from the side at insane speed, and his danger sense started ringing crazily.
Whoosh!!
’What the?!’ He exclaid inwardly, instinctively leaping backwards, escaping the deadly slash that ca slashing down in front of him.
’Is he actually trying to kill ?’ He couldn’t help but wonder, with cold sweat dripping down his back.
Before he could even balance himself on his feet, Nathan swiftly lunged at him with another precise slash, this ti aid at his chest.
Harry’s brows furrowed slightly, and he was forced to take another step backwards, in order to dodge the slash.
Without pausing for even a second, the combat mage lunged towards him once more with another strike, but this ti, Harry was already prepared as he had expected it.
From what Nathan was doing, it was clear that he was trying to corner Harry, and win the duel without giving him any chance to launch a counterattack.
The strategy might have worked if he was facing against any other Elentalist, but it was unfortunate that he was up against Harry instead.
’Earth hold!’ Harry thought, attempting to trap Nathan to the ground once more.
Two lumps of earth swiftly rose up from beneath Nathan’s feet, trying once again to clamp him to the ground, however, just like the last ti, Nathan easily dodged it by leaping backwards.
This was actually what Harry was aiming for; he hadn’t really expected such a trap to work on the combat mage, since it didn’t work the last ti.
His main aim was to give himself so breathing space so he could launch another skill.
’Shattering rocks!’ He thought, and in the blink of an eye, ten dium sized rocks appeared before shooting towards Nathan at great speed.
’That troubleso spell casting speed again!’ Nathan cursed inwardly, clicking his tongue.
From his last experience with Harry’s attacks, he knew better than to try and slice through the attacks as that would only waste his ti.
So he simply decided to move out of the trajectory of the incoming rocks, hurriedly channeling mana into his legs before dashing to the side.
Blast!
The rocks suddenly exploded into another series of smaller brown projectiles, that shot out at breakneck speed.
Although Nathan had already left the path of the attack, a few of them still shot out towards him and he was forced to deflect them, using his sword.
He planned on launching an attack at Harry from the side rather than from the front, and although it was a more stressful thod, he felt like it was the quickest way.
He rapidly pumped mana from his down to his feet and throughout the rest of his body, increasing his speed by another notch.
Infusing mana into his sword, he firmly gripped it, causing the weapon to radiate a vibrant yellow glow, pulsating with intense energy.
The mont he closed in on Harry, Nathan skillfully executed a full-powered slash toward the side of his neck, his sword leaving a faint yellow trail as it sliced through the air.
He had already forgotten this was supposed to be a simple spar, and after all the deadly attacks Harry had released at him, his mind and body were only dedicated to defeating the opponent that stood in front of him.
Harry’s eyes widened in shock, and a tingling sensation rapidly reverberated at the back of his head, warning him of the power contained in that attack.
He imdiately tried to dodge it, but the attack was just too fast for him to follow.
’Lightning Dash!’ Harry thought, boosting its power further by infusing a little of his energy into the skill.
