Chapter 147: Joint Practical Evaluation (4)
Joint Practical Evaluation (4)
Abel was surprised. He hadnt expected the enemy wizard to close the distance first.
Quite obviously, wizards had an advantage in long-range combat. With their strength concentrated more on magic than physical power, it was suicide for them to fight close-range with a physical type like Abel.
Moreover, Isaac hadnt used magic.
If he had created a magic circle to use magic, Abel would have instantly realized it and made preparations, but perhaps Isaac even expected that. Unable to sense his mana, Abel had let his guard down.
In Isaacs right hand was a dagger, and in his left was Zanyas Staff. Slicing through the frigid air, his dagger left a silver trail.
Whoosh!
Abel instinctively pulled his head back and avoided the dagger. Several strands of his blue-gray hair scattered into the cold air.
Abel then used his sword to block Isaacs consecutive attack.
Clang!
Two pale figures crossed to create sparks. A sharp collision rang through the cold.
Abel was amazed.
Isnt he from the Magic Department? Whats this agility and strength?
The physical strength the senior in front of him possessed was at a level where he had doubts about whether or not he was a student of the Magic Department. He could very well be in the Knight Department.
There was no time to spare. A pale blue magic circle appeared around Isaac.
When he felt the mans mana up close, he was reminded that Isaac was indeed in the Magic Department. His mana sent a shiver down Abels spine.
Tch!
Abel quickly leaped back to retreat and created an orange magic circle. Flames began to glow.
Simultaneously, White, who had returned to her senses, shot the 3-star spell [Wind Sword] from the passageway. The light green blade stormed towards Isaac.
However, the one to cast a spell first was Isaac.
Frostfire (Ice Element, 4)
Fwooooosh!
Abel and Whites magic was swallowed up helplessly by the pale blue ice flame.
Abel then reflexively slashed his fire-imbued sword to slice [Frostfire].
Baaaang!
Argh!
The high-temperature flame and low-temperature cold clashed violently and caused a steam explosion, throwing Abel back like a ball.
He expected to have escaped from immediate danger in this way, but he had already fallen into Isaacs trap the moment he collided blades with Isaac.
Tuk!
?!
Abels body soon came in contact with a cold and hard surface.
The 4-star defense magic, [Ice Wall]. The wall of ice had risen behind him at some point.
When Isaac created a magic circle for [Frostfire] and allowed Abel to track his ice mana.
He had distracted them with [Frostfire] and summoned [Ice Wall] in advance.
A flurry of cold wind. Loud du-du-du- sounds as [Ice Pellets] was shot mercilessly at the icy surroundings.
In the middle of that storm, Abel trembled in fear at the powerful enemy that stood past the hazy frost.
Overwhelming strength.
The only thing he could do in the face of it was cower in fear.
Vwoosh!
Phuack!
Khuack!
Crashhh-!
Explosive sounds echoed through the room. Ignoring the sword Abel was holding, a strong kick shot through the fog and connected with his stomach. The feeling was similar to a strike received from a metal bat made of steel plates.
The [Ice Wall] crumbled, and Abels body flew through the air. His body tumbled across the ice floor several times before crashing against the wall near the passageway.
D-d-d-d-d-dk!
At the same time, ice flowing with light brown rock mana, [Fossilized Ice], floated up and encircled his body.
Like a prisoner in a camp whod been tied up, he was unable to move, coughing up blood. He was amazed by the opponents mastery of mana, as even the [Fossilized Ice] surrounding him was intricately controlled.
Grrgh Hahah So damn strong
With a dismal laugh, Abel let out a groan. He assumed that he had broken a rib.
It hurt terribly, but it had only been one hit. He was still more than able to move. There was still a chance to strike back. As a student of Marchen Academys Knight Department, and with his friend Roanna out of commission, he couldnt lose like this.
Isaac leaned closer towards White, then gently wrapped his hand around her wrist.
It wasnt just one wrist. Just a breath away from White, Isaac grabbed hold of both her wrists.
She felt the warm breath of the same man with an ice storm swirling around him just minutes ago. Gazing upon Isaacs jawline and throat, which could be seen every time he moved his head, White swallowed nervously from a new strange sensation.
She had also admitted that Isaac was quite handsome, so the current view was highly provocative for White, who was in puberty.
To her, who was the only member of the imperial family not to hold much significance over social status, it did not matter that the person in question was a commoner.
S-s-s-s-s-senior Isaac? W-w-w-what is this? Huahh
White shook like a broken machine.
Isaac raised both of Whites wrists above her head. As parts too embarrassing to mention became more prominently in her view, their positioning only seemed to become more sensual.
Flustered, Whites entire face turned red.
Up against Senior Isaac, whom she didnt have the courage to fight against, and with her mood relaxed, the sudden series of events seemed to have prevented her from thinking straight.
White.
Y-y-yes?
Gazing down on White up close, they seemed to have forgotten how to breathe entirely.
You can rest now.
Rumble.
With a bright smile, he used [Rock Generation] and cuffed her wrists with rock handcuffs.
Ah.
Whites tension loosened once more.
And when he cuffed Whites ankles soon after, she fell into a daze with her face ashen white.
You dont plan on resisting, right?
Yes
With this, youll be considered as incapacitated Whats wrong, White?
Its nothing
White whipped her watery eyes to the side. A frustrated laugh escaped her mouth. She felt ashamed that she had just felt such sinful desires for her admirable senior, even if it had been just for a moment.
Just then, an object precariously dangling from Whites jacket pocket fell out and dropped on the ground. Both Isaac and Whites eyes turned to look at it.
Ah!
Her small, platinum pocket watch. Colliding with the ground, its lid opened to show the beautiful astral clock face and the unmoving hands.
White flinched in surprise, but she could not pick it back up because her arms and legs were restrained. In a hurry, she asked Isaac for help.
S-senior Isaac. C-can you put that back in my pocket? Its something precious to
However, Isaac just continued to stare at the pocket watch without replying.
And as if he were shocked by something unexpected, his eyes widened significantly.
Senior Isaac?
White realized that Isaac was currently in deep thought.
But because he never revealed his intentions, she did not know what those thoughts were.
However, the time that he took to think was short. He picked up the pocket watch and placed it back in Whites jacket pocket.
Make sure not to lose it if its precious to you.
Ah Okay
With those final words, Isaac no longer spoke to White.
This current change puzzled White.
A minute later. A female exam proctor arrived.
Seated in his ice chair, Isaac greeted her with a smile.
With an obligatory, Good work~. She carried away Whites group with her wind magic.
Isaac rubbed his lower lip with his finger and sank into deep thought.
An impossible speculation was forming inside of his mind.
