"Now you die, fool"
Friac said and held up his hands as mana started to gather towards it. The mana then took the form of a purple light and it changed its shape to a slowly revolving ball.
Adam looked at it and knew that the guy was about to use a spell which had a strange effect to it, which if was hit then might not do a lethal damage but it would still hurt like hell.
But not like he was about to give the man that chance to do that him. He readied himself for a counter strike that would cut through the spell and also not do any damage to the guy as per instructions.
But he really wanted to hit him.
Fraic finished preparing the spell as he laughed with an evil smile and said, "Behold, A Level SIX Spell. Something the likes of you never should have seen."
"You know, nobody has ever spoken like you have to me."
"And with respect, You speak a lot more than you should." Adam said in retort.
Fraic's face had a crack on it as he gave a small snicker, "Yes, say what you want now. Not like you will be good health or... in any health for that matter so say your last words."
Adam had a thoughtful face on him as he said, "Last words?... Nah, I'm good."
Fraic's dark smile broke as he talked to Adam and he finally couldn't take it anymore, "Alright then, You can die now." Then he threw the ball towards Adam.
Time seemed to slow down, as everyone in the auction hall looked at the ball of destruction that would mean only devastation for them if even a small amount of its power hit them.
Some tried to run away, some became unconscious in fear, some looked at like it was the most beautiful thing they had seen and some... just looked like that ball was the most foolish Fraic could have done at that moment.
Adam slowly reinforced his body with mana and put a lot more of it in his right hand as he tried to coat his hand full of mana. Then he repositioned his hand in a slapping position so that he may direct that small ball of destruction right towards its maker.
Carl beside him simply chose to ignore this as he has already given up on his last thread of life when he saw the ball being thrown towards them.
William and Delmar looked at the screen with such precision it would make even the most astute observer in shame.
All of this was happening in slow motion as the purple ball was slowly hurling towards Adam and the fellow tables.
As the ball of purple light was going, suddenly time itself stopped. Everything and everyone inside the auction hall was frozen in its place with no sign of either of them ever moving anymore.
But strangely the time outside the building was still moving as the guards positioned outside the auction house guarded and the streets itself was vibrant with the colors of many cars running around.
Inside the auction houses hall where the bids were taking place, time was still frozen. In this frozen time, suddenly a sigh could be heard, but there was no one who had moved or had been unfrozen.
"That's not decency, that's cruelty."
"And I suppose life is a fairyland then?"
The Third one interjected, "We are going out of topic, We must decide what must be done of that fool."
"What else? Just kill him already."
"I say give him another chance." The Second One said.
The First One immediately screamed out in disbelief, "What! Are you stupid? The guy's clearly out of his mind and even more so did you see how poorly that girl was being used by him."
"The girl was a who*e and you know that someone who does that would be treated like that."
"Yeah I know, I just don't like the guy."
"But it's not our decision on what to make of that person." The Third One said as all quiet down.
A Frozen moment later, A new voice emerged, this one inaudible as the previous one's as well.
"I don't know what to do. But I think we should call in a vote - A vote to either To Forgive or To Kill."
"Alright, lets do it." The others agreed as the First One spoke first, "I vote to Kill."
The Second One then said, "I vote for Forgiveness."
The Forth One said, "So it's a tie then. The Final Vote will be the tiebreaker."
Silence descended on the frozen zone, before the Third One said, "Kill"
"The vote is finished and the judgment is Death, Any Words?"
None said any as the Forth One said, "So it shall be done."
With its final words, The figure of Fraic Fraiggart came to view as the frozen figure seemed to crack little by little until cracks appeared all above the body before breaking apart and then disappearing into nothingness.
The purple ball of destruction that was hurling towards Adam and Carl too disappeared, Not only that but the women that was inside room 14 also disappeared.
Like that the Friggart Great House's Current House Master was 'Removed'.
