Chapter 580: Tasha vs Electric Eel Part 1

A few minutes ago.

Tasha released her lightning arrow to the electric eel.

She was stunned for a second when the electric eel swallowed her lightning arrow as if it was nothing. He wasn't even injured or feeling any discomfort.

Tasha didn't like it and formed another lightning arrow, shooting it to the eel.

"It's useless. Your lightning arrow won't work against me." The electric eel chuckled, staring at Tasha as if looking at a powerless girl.

Tasha narrowed her eyes when she listened to his insults. However, a smile soon appeared as soon as her arrow entered the electric eel's mouth.

"Spark!" Tasha activated her magic and burst out a lightning spark inside the electric eel's mouth.

The electric eel widened his eyes, feeling the spark. But he quickly recovered while opening his mouth, letting out a cloud of black smoke. "That's quite good. But it's not enough."

"…" Tasha fell silent. The eel didn't seem to be hurt from her point of view, so she wondered whether she should hit the eel on the inside or the outside.

She thought for a moment as the eel moved around in the air, looking down on her.

As if he had no patience left, the eel skin suddenly burst out electricity, covering his body.

After that, the lightning began to form a small bolt of lightning on top of the eel's head as the latter turned to Tasha.

Suddenly, the bolt of lightning flew to Tasha.

Not wanting to be hit by this attack, Tasha leaped to the side and allowed the bolt of lightning to hit the ground. However, she soon raised her hand and formed a Magic Circle, shielding her from something.

When the lightning bolt hit the ground, it created a spark twice as big as Tasha's.

"…" Tasha furrowed her eyebrows, noticing their gap in lightning power. She also understood that her Lightning was the worse one among the two elements she had. Even then, she didn't want to sulk because she didn't have the Sealing Magic right now since Kai was in a worse predicament than her.

Taking a deep breath, Tasha calmed her heart down. Her bow began to glow as Tasha fused more lightning power into the bow.

The bow then transformed and expanded in size, almost reaching the same height as her. It was only twenty centimeters away from reaching the ground when she wielded it normally.

The string was then formed by lightning, becoming a stronger string than the one she used before.

This bow was more solid and tough, so it should bring more power into her arrow. In other words, Tasha aimed at the eel's skin, trying to penetrate it with sheer power, speed, and penetrating power.

She formed another arrow on her other hand and pulled her bow, aiming at the eel, who was ready to swallow the arrow again.

To avoid getting swallowed again, Tasha suddenly lowered her aim and turned left as if trying to hit someone else.

"!!!" The eel noticed her movement and shouted, "What are you doing?!"

The eel saw the shrimp and started flying toward him in order to stop Tasha's arrow.

At that time, Tasha suddenly turned back and aimed at the eel's body.

"!!!" The eel suddenly realized Tasha's plan and laughed. Because he needed to make an S shape when moving, the skin suddenly flapped and repelled Tasha's arrow effortlessly, redirecting it to the ground.

When the arrow hit the ground, it pierced through the ground and created a several meters hole.

"…" Tasha was speechless. Her strategy turned out to be useless. "What should I do now…"

The eel laughed at her plan, saying, "You won't be able to defeat me. Your arrow is not strong enough to pierce my skin and your lightning is too weak to even be compared to mine. No matter what you do, you won't be able to win. I will show you the power of true lightning!"

Tasha gritted her teeth, wondering how she could win against this electric eel. Even if she couldn't, she needed to find a way to buy enough time until someone could help her.

After all, she had left her Sealing Magic to Kai, who needed it more than her. In fact, Kai had been teleporting people to this place using that magic.

She might be the biggest contributor on this battlefield, in a sense.

Suddenly, she noticed an incoming presence from her left. Raising her vision, Tasha saw a huge rock falling and piercing the ground a little bit. The rock didn't shatter at all as Tasha observed this rock, wondering why it came to her.

They all had agreed to make sure no one disturbed each other's fight after all.

However, she was shocked when she saw a pair of eyes on the rock, realizing his identity.

Their eyes intertwined for one last time as Rapakha sensed something weird in Tasha's body.

"Your…sealing…" Rapakha said with a tired voice. He tried to stay alive for a bit longer with his remaining Magic Power.

"Kai has it since he needs it more than me," Tasha answered quickly. As much as she wanted to shed her tears after seeing her teacher in this state, she knew Rapakha didn't want her to waste his remaining time by screaming or something.

"Touch…" Rapakha was grateful that Tasha understood his wish and respected it.

Tasha didn't know what he was thinking, but she bent her knees and placed her hand on Rapakha's body.

Suddenly, a small Magic Circle appeared, connecting both of them.

Tasha felt the warmth of the Magic Power fluctuating around the magic circle as she soon understood what Rapakha wanted to do.

"Can't… give… Magic… But… give… element…" Rapakha stuttered as his voice grew weaker and weaker. "You… Disciple… I… Master… Answer?"

Tears couldn't help but flow out of the corner of her eyes. Even at the very end, Rapakha still thought about her. Instead of passing like a hero, he wanted to pass away as a teacher, granting her his Space Element.

In other words, Rapakha tried to use the remaining Magic Power to seal his Sealing Magic in Tasha's body, allowing Tasha to wield it. Unfortunately, he couldn't seal his Magic Power because he had destroyed his own core that contained all his Magic Power.

Seeing such care from her teacher, there was only one obvious answer from Tasha.

"I, Tasha Carter, am the student of the great warrior, Rapakha."

Despite how short they met this whole time, there wasn't a shred of doubt in her voice as she looked Rapakha in the eyes.

Rapakha smiled as the transfer had completed. That smile would always be planted on her mind as it was the last thing she saw from her teacher before the rock turned into ashes and the wind blew it away.

"I… see master off." Tasha gritted her teeth, trying hard to stop the tears flowing down her cheeks.

However, her danger remained the same as the electric eel obviously didn't wait for her.

He had been charging all the lightning inside his body and opened his mouth, releasing it all. The lightning formed a straight line to Tasha, who was seeing off Rapakha.

Before the lightning hit her, a huge pink sphere appeared next to her, swallowing all the lightning. After that, it sealed the entrance and shrank in size, compressing the lightning like how Rapakha did to the jellyfish's attack.

Tasha gradually rose from the ground, glancing at the electric eel coldly.
