The Monarch Chapter 194: above everyone

!

’Shit’, Kayden received a fireball when he tried to suppress it with his mana, it seed like the spell was being controlled too strongly, without wasting a second Kayden activated his path completely.

All the mana in the region seed discouraged and without any will, this ti the fireballs barely managed to reach a few ters from Kayden before they were destroyed in the air.

This was only possible, as they were generic spells being thrown at him, if it were anything more complex it would be beyond his jurisdiction. When the girl realized this, she began to launch several fire Phoenixes at Kayden.

This ti the boy was unable to suppress them and had to dodge their attacks, fortunately, his speed was beyond the normal level and he could do this easily, probably not even a magician specialized in speed a few levels above Kayden could match him.

SWISH!

SWISH!

SWISH!

Kayden made three cuts in the air with his katana and three waves of lightning went against the girl at high speed, cutting all the Phoenixes in their path, within seconds they arrived inches from their target.

At the last second, she erected a wall of earth to protect herself, the first cut just hit the wall and was unable to advance, the second went in deeply and the third broke the barrier completely and reached the girl’s thigh causing a deep cut.

This was the technique that Kayden developed on his own over the past few months, his inspiration being the IQ cuts from martial arts novels in his past life. It was a mana strip with the lightning elent charged.

’Arrogant’, Kayden lost all respect upon seeing the girl in front of him receiving the attack head-on, anyone could see that the amount of mana he put into those three attacks was absurd and would destroy everything in its path.

"You dare!" Kayden felt like he was in an ani where the villain was a protected, spoiled nobleman who had never been challenged. Without him knowing, the situation was exactly that. "Shooting star!!"

With the girl’s scream, Kayden saw dozens of pieces of earth coming out of the ground and saw them gather into a ball in the air, then the ball caught fire like a teor and ca towards Kayden.

The teor was at least a dozen ters long and if it reached Kayden it would be transford into a ball of flesh, because of the height at which it was conjured it couldn’t gain much speed, but it was still destructive enough, Kayden could feel it would explode at the slightest contact with the surface.

A mischievous smile appeared on Kayden’s face, it had been a while since he did what he was about to do he didn’t like showing off, but Sarah specifically asked for it in this match.

He didn’t care much, as these requests were routine for his fa and attention-crazy girlfriend. Kayden began to rise into the sky against the massive ball of fire, his height making it seem like an ant was facing the sun.

All the mana in several tens of ters converged on Kayden imdiately, his hand began to rise and when it reached the height of his chest he snapped his fingers, the sound was amplified by the mana and reached all the thousands of people watching this fight between second place and first.

Snap!

For a second nothing happened and then …..

BOOOOM!

A huge ray fell from the sky and left everyone blind for a second because of the brightness, the ray was the biggest spell Kayden had ever cast in his life and was supported by the mana of almost 200 ters around him.

CRACK!

The huge fireball disintegrated in the air as if it was nothing more than a ball and paper, the lightning continued falling as if the ball was just a mishap along the way, it fell uninterruptedly for several seconds before stopping.

The tiles on the floor were entirely burned making the strength behind the spell clear, the floor was made to resist most magician realm spells easily, and yet it was damaged.

For a few seconds everyone was deafened by the noise of the lightning which was thunderously loud, it seed like a prelude to the end. anwhile, Kayden floated in the air as if he were a god among mortals.

Anabela was in complete shock as she looked at what was left of her spell, which was nothing more than a few blocks of the earth burning on the ground insignificantly, she had used more than half of her mana in that attack, it was enough to kill even a wizard at 6th level and was reduced to nothing.

"Give up or the next one will be on you", Kayden’s voice made her look into the boy’s eyes, there were no emotions in him, it was just an endless void, the eyes of soone ready to fulfill his words in the next few seconds, a primitive fear took care of the girl, even more so when she saw Kayden start to gather mana again as if this demonstration of strength was sothing commonplace.

"I quit!" a strange silence appeared in the stands, Kayden spent eight months without appearing anywhere or leaving the house, but as soon as he left he killed three strong wizards as if it were nothing more than killing flies.

After that, he rose in the rankings in just two fights and was gone for a few more months, and as soon as he returned he ca towards the first place, the most impressive thing is that this wasn’t even a fight, kayden suppressed it in every way and especially the harder, through fear he made the greatest genius of the year bend his knees.

Kayden consecrated himself above everyone, at that mont he was placed on a completely different pedestal from the rest of the people, among the geniuses he was out of the curve.

*********

Kayden was eting with Locke and other leaders in his room, all of his forr subjects were expelled a few months ago, they even tried to co back when they saw the strength that Kayden gained, but they were ignored like trash.

"The second year’s championship cos down to defending the rise of creatures from the abyss, the abyss is a ridiculously large rift about 50 kiloters long, and each room will have a few hundred ters to defend, for so reason several magical beasts They co out of the abyss at this ti of year, the first wave is just a few from the first level, but over ti they turn into hundreds and thousands, the room that lasts the longest wins", Locke explained everything briefly and then they began to debate strategies.

Kayden stayed out of this matter and just read the materials about the test, the abyss would start releasing second-level beasts after a week, but normally no room lasted that long, the record was only 5 days, and at this point, there were hundreds of mage-level beasts per day, moreover, so were above the first three levels.

This ti, there were two forms of evaluation: the performance of the class as a whole and the individual student. Locke quickly organized a strategy of teams of 10 people to kill and finish the beasts in the first few days and later teams of twenty people.

Other than that, they would build barricades and several other traps, in addition to training so joint spells to maximize area damage. Kayden didn’t ddle much in this matter, knowing he had no training for that.

He wasn’t living in a fantasy world where he had skill in every area, it was much better to let Locke lead than have to deal with the consequences of a bad plan.

The next day all the rooms were gathered in an open space a few kiloters away from the abyss, in the air were so teachers responsible for protecting the students, and in the center was the dean.

"Hello students, it looks like you managed to do well for another year and arrived prepared for this test, I hope that a few months in the lower rooms have ignited sothing inside you", the dean’s eyes passed through the rooms at the top and fell to the lower base.

"Everyone should already know how this test works, the prize this ti is a special seed that carries a high density of mana, it cos from a tree capable of growing naturally up to the third rank, everyone will receive one, but the first five rooms must receive 5 seeds per person. Furthermore, we have so special prizes for those who prove themselves worthy during the test, good luck", the speech was quick and effective like most of Leonardo’s speeches.

In the next few minutes, everyone was assigned to their corresponding area, Kayden’s room was in an open space similar to a plain, this made his job of watching the abyss a lot easier.

The abyss was completely black without being able to see anything in it, Kayden felt a feeling of helplessness next to this grandeur of nature, it seed like sothing endless and eternal, capable of swallowing all of existence in its darkness. His spiritual sense could not penetrate two ters into this darkness.
