Chapter 9 Magus’ Might

Chapter 9 Magus' Might

HOWL!

The wolf leader howled and commanded the pack to attack the three Magi who had dared to cross the blockade and obstruct them. However, the wolves were afraid of getting close to the Magi. In the end, they could only reluctantly attack.

"Hmph!" The female Magi scoffed. She had silver hair and cyan-colored eyes. She crouched down and placed both palms on the ground. A bright magic circle lit up underneath her palms!

Rank 1 Spell: Spill Water!

A few seconds later, water was generated from the ground beneath her and it quickly spread toward the wolf pack. This level of water didn't do any damage to the pack, neither did it impede them in any way.

If anything, the water only made the ground a little wet.

Next, the burly Magus with a buzz cut stepped forward and stomped on the ground. A magic circle had already materialized underneath his foot and the moment it touched the ground, the earth rippled and the waves spread toward the wolf pack.

Rank 1 Spell: Shape Earth!

At once, the ground had turned into an extremely muddy terrain. The majority of the wolves fell down as they lost balance. However, this was still not enough to defeat the pack.

Finally, the blond Magus with bright blue eyes weaved mysterious hand signs and then raised his right arm. The next moment, blue lightning crackled on his palm.

Rank 1 Spell: Shocking Grip!

He viciously punched the muddy ground with his lightning-infused fist. Following that, the land in front of them turned into a sea of lightning! The three spells combined in harmony resulting in a devastating attack.

Instantly, a large number of wolves were electrocuted. Their fur was charred and they struggled helplessly until they died. With a single move made by the three Magi, close to a hundred wolves died.

"Whoa!"

"Amazing!"

"This is the might of a Magus?!"

Completely restricted, the wolf showed a hint of panic as it glared at the two Magi.

Suddenly...

The ground behind the wolf cracked open and a figure jumped out from underneath. It was the burly Magus!

Right now he was wielding a heavy war hammer that seemed to be made out of some kind of black material. He lifted both his hands and imbued mana into his weapon. Then, he swung the war hammer down on the wolf's head with a wide grin on his face.

"Hah, gotcha!"

BOOM!

The wolf was instantly pulverized by the hammer. All that was left was a mangled mixture of flesh, bones, and innards. Seeing their alpha die such a gruesome death, the remaining wolves all ran away with their tails tucked between their legs.

"It's a pity. We could have sold the corpse for some money." The female Magus pouted.

The burly Magus, Ivan, looked at the alpha's corpse, or the lack of one, and smiled embarrassedly. "My bad, Kelley."

The female Magus, Kelley, shot one last glance at the mangled corpse of the wolf and then turned around and left.

"Nicely done, Ivan. Don't mind her." The blue-eyed Magus gave Ivan a thumbs up.

Ivan looked at his teammate and laughed. "Haha, you too, Alex. Come, let's get back to the carriage. I need your help understanding a spell model from the School of Invocation."

"Alright, let's go." Alex nodded and then went back to the carriage with Ivan.

The surviving children and the mercenaries cheered for the victorious Magi as they came back to the campsite. The fight earlier was simply breathtaking. Even the mercenaries, who were always fighting with their lives on the line, were in awe of the teamwork displayed by the three.

Alex and Ivan were indifferent to the applause and the looks of admiration directed at them. They were already used to it. Suddenly, Alex caught sight of Adam who was standing in one location in a daze. The boy was sticking out like a sore thumb.

"What's with this kid?" Alex mumbled.

Currently, Adam was oblivious to what was happening around him as his mind had already shifted to the mysterious space within the white lotus!
