'...Kill them all Lucas, it's an easy way for you.'
'what a joke.' Lucas thought as he looked last remaining puppet of Samuel. It's been six minutes already since Samuel told him to kill them.
Lucas would never do that, in the first place they are the innocent students who get into this mess by that bastard.
"Huff" "Huff" "Huff"
Lucas took a deep breath trying to regain his breathing after this long battle. He already defeated Eight students who were under his control.
He was able to defeat them because they were controlled by Samuel. Because now they don't have free will to do anything, they just attack in a repeat pattern.
After fighting them Lucas was able to understand that, but that doesn't mean everything was in his favour. Lucas has taken a hell lot of beating too.
His clothes are torn apart, there is blood running down from his left shoulder, their a black-purple bruise on his handsome face and he is barely standing.
'That bitch, Isabella what taking her this long?'
Lucas thought as looking at Isabella who was still filling up her Mana tank. it's been Eight minutes and she said she needed just two minutes.
'what bullshit...'
Lucas turned his head toward one female student who started to walk towards him, white pupils locking onto Lucas with a dull gaze.
Before Lucas registered what was happening a long sharp blade suddenly appeared between his brows.
Lucas's eyes widened. He pulled his head back as fast as he could, withstanding the whiplash with gritted teeth.
A fine cut slit across his forehead, the breath of death kissing his cheek. If it wasn't for his reaction time, his skull would have already been split into two.
Lucas rolled across the ground, realizing that he had once more miscalculated. Not only was this female student herself with metal magic, but she could shape this metal as she pleased. At that moment, even with Lucas completely in her arms. Her arm suddenly became a three-meter-long blade, nearly impaling him.
Lucas grunted, using his sword to block a second blade. But though the metals his sword was formed of managed to withstand the sharp edge, the weight was too much for him to stay on his feet.
Lucas coughed violently as his back slammed into a boulder
He didn't have the luxury of taking a breath for a single moment. Without pause, yet another blade tore through the air toward him.
There was no time for Lucas to land back on the ground before it reached him. Thinking quickly, he changed his position in mid-air. He turned it hard, launching himself toward his left.
The blade tore through the large boulder wall as though it were e piece of paper. It continued to follow through, chasing after Lucas.
Lucas fell through the air quickly, sliding across the rough ground.
Her blade gets thinner the further she extends her metal magic. She isn't producing more metal because of her low mana, she just diluting what she has to extend her range. So...'
Lucas gaze flashed, his thoughts spinning.
'There it is! Ten meters is her limit!'
"Stellar Stride's first movement:- Astral Dash"
Lucas uses his Astral Dash, Lucas was standing there at the moment but the next moment he is gone.
With super speed, He fell in an arc aimed right at the girl.
Her gaze showed no emotion. She dislocated her shoulder unexpectedly turning her hand in Lucas's direction making it impossible for to Lucas doge.
Lucas twisted his body, a sharp spike of pain ripping through his left shoulder as the blade went through him with ease. However, his gaze remained pure and focused.
Using his sword, with his only good remaining arm, he slash it toward the girl's left shoulder.
-Slap!
Slapping Lucasin the face until a red mark appeared on his face, Samuel raised his hand again
-Slap!
"Someone who is ranked 1001 should sit quietly and listen to the lecture obediently..."
-Slap!
"Yet...you dared to provoke me!"
-Slap!
"Even now...just as I was about to have my fun with Isabella you came in and ruined everything"
-Slap!
"Blame your lack of tact for the fact that you will die after being tortured..."
Slapping Lucas's bruised face continuously, his face slowly turned purple the it was before and his lips started to become even more swollen.
Lucas just took Samuel beating without any resistance, he didn't have any strength left to defend himself anymore.
-Slap!
"If you had just not come here nothing like this would happen."
-Slap!
"I'm already way behind the shade, because of you I have to take earth of my lord."
-Slap
"Sorry, but you have to die here loser."
Samuel said to Lucas one last time, he raised his hand high in the air, his nail becoming very long, and at the tip of his nail, dark mana began to gather.
Samuel looked at Lucas one last time and said.
"Don't worry, I will come to your funeral."
Lucas didn't say anything instead he looked in his left direction with barely open eyes.
After seeing there he looked back to Samuel.
"Sorry, look like you have to die before me."
There was confusion on Samuel's face. then something happened.
"Wind magic:- Wind blade" a female voice sounded, and Samuel instantly recognised that voice.
He looked in that direction where looks look, and he saw Isabella standing, she had both her hands in his direction.
He could faintly hear the gust of wind coming towards him, he tried to dodge but it was too late.
-Slash
With a slash sound his hand instantly cut, and he could not even feel l when it happened.
His hand dropped onto the ground and his blood began to flow through his shoulder.
