Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 89 - 37: Is He Dead...?



"I've just received news that the top 3 contenders are about to engage in a battle!" Announced the commentator.

The screen was blank, and the audience was eager to know who they were.

"Top 3 contendors?"

"They must come from a well-known noble family..."

Many contenders were displayed on the screen, the audience didn't know who to expect.

Kurt, who had heard this announcement, was still inside of his carriage. You could tell that he was starting to get anxious as rested his head over his hands while he sat down, as if he had something on his mind that worried him.

"And the contendors are..."

--------------------------------------------------------

"Is everyone ready?" Asked the teacher.

They were out in the open relatively far from the other group; they had a lot of space as the platform extended for miles.

"Yes." John replied.

Victor and dark-haired boy both nodded.

"Well then, you may start when the coin hits the ground," She said.

After she had finished speaking, John felt some of my adrenaline go away and was starting to feel nervous.

'Now's not the time.' John thought.

"Looks like I was right, we were fated to face off again. This time I won't hold back." Said Victor.

"Right back at you." John replied with a nervous smile.

'Hold back...? If I don't hold back, everyone will be able to see, but if I do, I have a feeling I'll end up in a worse state... Maybe I should have gone back with Ariel and Serena.' John thought.

As John thought that, the lady grabbed a coin and threw it off into the air.

They all watched as the coin slowly fell.

*Clang*

The instant it touched the ground, everyone had started to chant.

They all leapt away from each other and gained some distance while we continued to chant.

Everyone was using 'silent chant' so there was no way of knowing what was coming. Even if they weren't, John wouldn't know.

"Advanced dark magic: Resurgens umbra Spika" Translation: Rising Shadow Spikes.

The first to finish chanting was the black-haired kid. The instant he had said that, his shadow quickly extended towards them.

John got bad vibes from it, plus it was a spell, so the moment it reached him, John leapt sideways.

A split second later, dark spikes rose up from his shadow.

As for Victor, he had disappeared, and before the boy even realised it, Victor was behind him.

Victor was muttering something, he was chanting for another spell. But before he could finish, Dark Spikes rose up from the ground around the boy.

But before they even had a chance to graze Victor, he disappeared and reappeared relatively far from them.

"Stand still." Said the boy as his shadow extended again towards Victor.

Spikes would rise from his shadow, and Victor would teleport to dodge it. No one had suffered any hits, meanwhile.

"I'm being totally ignored right now, huh?" John muttered as he watched the two fight.

John could wait for them to waste their magic and end them, but that didn't sit right with him.

While the two were distracted by their fight, John propelled 5 ice spikes at each of them.

But before it hit the boy, spikes rose up from the ground beside him, blocking my Spikes. Although since it blocked it, his spike was completely frozen and crumbled shortly after.

As for victor, well, he just teleported and dodged them all.

"If you keep ignoring me, you'll regret it," John said as he walked up to them.

"Big words. Advanced Dark Magic: horruit hastis tenebris." Translation: Dark Lances.

He said while he leapt towards John, changing his target from Victor to him. Four Dark lances were formed midair, and pointed straight at him.

John had also been fake chanting, so by the time he had formed his he was already in the process of forming his.

"Advanced Ice Magic: ipsas pila glacies" Said John as he formed four Ice lances around him.

His dark lances were propelled straight at John, and he propelled his straight at him, causing them to collide.

John's lances froze his lances, slowing them down, but his dark lances won in terms of strength and still kept going at him.

If John casted Ice wall out of nowhere from this distance, it would be suspicious, so instead he decided that he should dodge it.

When John was about to leap away to dodge it, something strange happened. The boy suddenly cast rose dark spikes from the ground in front of him and used it to stop him midair.

A second later, the frozen dark lances disappeared. Not only that, but a big line was formed on the ground which separated John and the boy as if it had been scraped away. The boy also looked surprised and confused about what had happened, so John guessed it wasn't his doing.

"How about we stop playing around?" Asked Victor with his right arm stretched out.

His hand was coated with a strange aura.

'O-Oi... Are you serious? What was that...?' John inwardly muttered.

"Saint-Class Spatial Magic: Void Eater."

'This is bad news... Won't we be cut in half if we're hit directly by that...?' John surmised.

"Or so I'd like to say, but I'm not allowed to use this on people. I just wanted your attention," After he said that, the aura which had coated his hand disappeared.

He quickly went back to chanting for a next spell, then the boy followed after and John was last.

From that attack alone, John was sure even the boy could feel how strong victor was, If he hadn't stopped short, he could have been scraped away out of existence.

They were now being completely wary of Victor.

"Advanced Dark magic: tenebris triplicata" Said the boy the moment he had finished chanting.

In that instant, his shadow extended even more than before, in the form of a square that was gradually increasing its area.

John used Velox in time and propelled himself straight out of the shadow square's zone. Meanwhile, Victor hadn't moved an inch, but John guessed he didn't need to.

The edges of the square then started to rise up, it was taking the form of a cube. Before it was high enough, John focused on his eyesight as much as he could to see what Victor was doing.

John noticed that he was muttering something with a smile on his face.

"I can already tell how this is going to end..." John muttered as he watched the cube rise and start to close off.

'I'm being ignored again, aren't I?' He thought to himself.

A minute later, the cube had been completely closed off, and in that instant, spikes stretched out from the outside. If the outside was like this, John couldn't imagine what the inside would be like.

After that, the spikes retracted, and in an instant; the cube dispersed into thin air.

What John saw shocked him. Victor was riddled with holes all over his body.

"O-Oi... Why didn't he just teleport out?" John muttered as he was about to run over to him.

Despite what he was looking at, the boy's expression did not change at all, it was just a neutral expression.

The fact that it hadn't changed after what he had just done was starting to irritate John.

John started to walk over to him, and he started to chant.

"Did you have to kill him?" John asked while blatantly displaying how irritated he felt.

He ignored John and continued his chant.

Right while John was planning on sinking a deep punch on his face, he pointed behind him.
