Chapter 70: Chapter 70 - First Spell

Two Things

One, both the light and the darkness affinities had the same number of spell available for me.

Two, their category was more or less the same.

If one looked from a bystanders point than they will easily be able to figure out that they had almost the same effects and category.

Light Sword > Darkness Blade ( Close Range Spell )

The light affinity was a Sword type Spell and the darkness affinity was a blade type spell.

Light Bullets > Darkness Arrows ( Long Range Spell )

Light Bullets was from the Bullet type Spells and Darkness Arrows was from the Arrow type spells. The Light Bullets shot small and multiple bullets and Darkness Arrows shot big and also multiple arrows, the difference was that one was a little small and weaker but faster than the other one and the other one was big and more powerful but had less speed.

Light Shield > Darkness Cocoon ( Defensive Spell )

Light Shield was from the Shield Type and The Darkness Cocoon was from... I don't know which one but it covered all sides. And this one was bound to be better than the other one.

Now my favorite one

Light Healing Hands > Darkness Degrading Hands ( Manipulation Spell )

The light one healed people and beasts but the darkness one had the opposite effect on it. Not completely opposite but it had it's similarities. One healed and the other degraded.

Degrading Hands had the effect to degrade someones stats permanently by touching that person. And if I couldn't touch it or touching it for a prolonged time will be a problem than I can just curse that person from a distance and temporarily lower his stats. This was the reason why I liked this spell the most out of the others.

Lastly the Special One

Light Beam > Darkness Ball ( Special Category Spell )

They were different from the other ones. It was like they were special or something. Both the last spell from the two affinities had a special characteristic about them which I liked very much.

So all in all this is what I thought of them.

Clawdia nodded "Yes I do master, how big do you want it?"

"Well... make it the same size as me and make sure to not let it have any additional mana in it as I don't want it to burst in my face, okay"

'Alright, Master.' She confirmed me and got up from her laying position. She clenched her hole body as lightning surrounded her and shot a volt of current beside me.

Instead of the current hitting the floor and bursting through it, the lightning stopped and got reconstructed itself to a dummy made from pure lighting.

I looked at it and saw that the dummy didn't had any face, just the design of a head and its whole body also didn't have any features other than being filled with lighting and the occasional flashes of them.

I positioned myself in front of the lightning dummy and clenched the light sword with both of my hands. After I did a few slashes in the air, I lifted my hands and struck the dummy vertically from the upper side.

The sword was made from the light element so it didn't have much weight and because it was a short-sword the sword almost didn't have any weight. Because of that the sword went towards the dummy in a very fast speed.

The Sword hit the dummy and it felt like it had hit an indestructible wall as the sword bounced back without even damaging the dummy even slightly. And because of the speed of the sword and being re bounced back with the same force I felt the backlash of it and almost flew off the floor only for a second before falling on the floor.

"F*ck! What the hell just happened right now?" I said and slowly got up and thought about what had happened.

'I already told Clawdia to not put any mana in it, then why did that happen?... Hmm, it might have rebounded because the sword had contact with the dummy and it couldn't move the dummy back and also because the force it had accumulated, the sword re bounced back and in the process also threw me back.'

'This is one of the reasons why I hate physics.'

After complaining I started to practice again with the dummy but this time with lower power behind it so I don't have any unnecessary accidents.

Few minutes had past before I thought of trying out a new spell on the dummy and bought one.

[ You Have Bought The Level 01 Darkness Arrows Spell ]

[ 25 Bronze Coins Spent ]

After the spell completely integrated in my mind i used it.

A dark eerie aura slowly started to build up in front of me as it sucked out the air surrounding it.

A moment later, a dark arrow which had a very deadly aura was floating in front of me.
