The eldest sister, Cynthia Azure, had somehow managed to freeze Kenzo's legs without him noticing. It wasn't until he tried to lift his feet that he realized they were firmly encased in thick ice. The cold bit into his skin as he struggled, the ice creeping steadily higher, reaching up to his knees without any sign of stopping.Master Kenzo, maintaining his composure, glanced back at the two girls standing before him. He pondered the situation, his mind racing to understand how the ice had formed. 'But without water, how could she have frozen it...? Ah, that must be thanks to the second sister, Selene Azure, who is also adept in Water Magic.'"So, you've used Illusion Magic again, have you? Quite a comprehensive plan. Was this your doing, Student Scarlet? I award each of you 120 points, including the one hiding behind Cynthia and Selene," he said, his voice calm and measured.From behind the two older sisters, a younger girl slowly emerged. She appeared somewhat shy, her movements te
"Why is he only showing up now?" someone wondered aloud, their voice tinged with curiosity and frustration.The boy who finally appeared seemed almost different from his digital counterpart. He was a whirlwind of energy and audacity in the game, always quick to act and slow to think. In reality, he stood before them, a stark contrast—quieter, more composed, and decidedly less impulsive. His demeanor was calm, almost introspective as if he were constantly calculating his next move.With a steely determination set in his eyes, Ryan wasted no time on words. He moved with a speed and precision that left onlookers breathless. He had closed the gap between himself and the teacher in a flash, his fist igniting with a fiery aura as he launched a direct punch. The blow was powerful and unwavering, aimed straight at the teacher's face.But Ryan's Ryan's attack was far from over. With the agility of a seasoned fighter, he shifted his weight and delivered a cunning left hook that could shatter bo
The situation was becoming increasingly dire. Alice Scarlet found herself kneeling on the ground, her once beautiful and fair face now streaked with water droplets. The intensity of the recent battle had left her visibly shaken. The blinding light from Kenzo's sword had disoriented her, but she refused to forget her duty even in her dazed state.With a determined shout, she called out to her allies, "Beta formation!" Her voice, though strained, carried a note of authority and desperation. When the command left her lips, a coordinated barrage of attacks from mages and archers lit up the sky. The array of colors from the magical spells and arrows created a spectacular display. Under different circumstances, one might have mistaken it for a grand fireworks show at a summer festival.The vibrant colors illuminated the battlefield, casting an eerie glow on the chaotic scene below. Each spell and arrow was aimed precisely to overwhelm and outmaneuver Kenzo. Alice had put her faith in this
Like lying at the bottom of a deep ocean, a cold, dark sensation swiftly infiltrated his mind. In that brief moment, the entire space around Kenzo seemed to undergo desertification thousands of times. Albert, Alice, Ryan, and the three Azure sisters quickly vanished, followed by hundreds of other students. The building and the surrounding trees were the last to disappear completely.A whirlwind with golden-red edges appeared in the blink of an eye, destroying everything else. As the remnants of the ultimate technique faded away, a blood-soaked battlefield gradually came into view. Despair and silence coexisted in that space."Only five... no, six people left..." His face wrinkled as he corrected himself, indicating something was not right. Only one small group had managed to survive the recent cataclysmic attack. His expression of confusion and unease spread through the group like wildfire, heightening the already palpable sense of dread.They soared through the air, their makeshift
Even the genius with an IQ of 219 remained silent. It wasn't because he didn't know the answer; he didn't want to believe it was true. The realization was too frightening to accept, too monstrous to admit."I think either that person is invisible... or they're right beneath us..." His voice, usually so calm and confident, trembled slightly under the weight of his words. "And unfortunately, I lean towards the latter hypothesis... Esther."The implications of his statement sent a shiver down everyone's spine, casting a palpable silence over the group. Sweat began to pour down Esther's forehead like a waterfall, each drop a testament to her mounting fear. Her heart pounded in her chest, the sound echoing in her ears as if to underscore the gravity of the situation. She felt a chill run down her spine, the icy fingers of dread creeping into her core.Slowly, with every movement filled with trepidation, Esther began to lean her head out of the aircraft. The wind whipped past her face, bu
But what if their fate isn't as simple as death? What if they are trapped in another nightmare instead? Indeed, the demonic aura here has such a terrifying effect. This energy, known as Dark Magic, is banned due to its vile nature and ability to plunge dreamers into an eternal nightmare while simultaneously causing their bodies to decay slowly over time. The very essence of this dark energy tainted the air itself, making it feel heavier and more challenging to breathe.He moved swiftly, clambering into the engine room with urgency. His footsteps echoed in the dimly lit space, creating an eerie atmosphere. Inside, Esther found herself face-to-face with the bizarre creature. Her legs had become so paralyzed that she could no longer stand. As the creature advanced, inch by menacing inch, she felt her panic rising. Each step it took seemed to resonate with a sinister intent, its eyes glowing with an otherworldly malice."Stay away from me! A demon like you has no right to approach a nob
"Amemura?! What are you doing here? And where is White?" Kenzo's voice was sharp, tinged with urgency and concern as he scanned the dimly lit, chaotic area for any signs of his missing student. His eyes, fierce and vigilant, darted from shadow to shadow, seeking any hint of movement."Sir," Amemura began, his voice shaky, barely a whisper, and his eyes wide with a mixture of fear and sorrow. "He's been killed by this demon... I was hiding, trying to find an opportunity to kill it, but I'm too weak to do anything," he admitted, frustration and self-reproach evident in his trembling tone. His helplessness was palpable, and he could barely meet Kenzo's intense gaze.Kenzo's expression softened momentarily, understanding the heavy burden Amemura was carrying. "It's alright..." he said gently, though his heart ached at the loss of another student. A fleeting look of pain crossed his face, a shadow of regret for not being there sooner. But he knew now was not the time for self-recrimina
The sword hanging at his side gleamed brightly once more before he sprang into action. Instantly, he launched himself at the demon, his movements a blur of speed and precision. His blade sliced through the air with a whistle; each swings a perfect arc of lethal intent. He attacked relentlessly, his strikes a flurry of silver flashes coming from all directions simultaneously. Each blow landed with a resounding impact, causing the demon to stagger and reel. The creature was utterly overwhelmed, its attempts to defend itself futile against the sheer intensity of the onslaught.Despite being driven back, the demon's eyes burned with a fierce determination. It was not ready to accept defeat. Summoning the depths of its sinister Mana, the demon let out a guttural roar that shook the air. The dark energy coalesced around it, pulsating with a palpable malevolence. Then, with a force that seemed to rend the very fabric of reality, the demon detonated itself in a massive explosion. The blast
