Everyone went inside. The students, Eauvis and Grendall, as well as the soldiers. For the soldiers, from the 5 remaining, the 3 of them with few scratches decided to aid the 2 who had missing limbs. They wrapped some cloth around the affected area. Once they were all inside, Spellmaster stepped forward. Naturally, all of his enemies were furious with him. "Before we start this discussion, I'd like it if all of you stopped looking at me with such eyes. I want everyone as of this moment, to stop being enemies in the meanwhile." "Easy for him to say," Lili thought. He continued, "Martin, sorry, but can you fetch us some chairs? I want them to be comfortabl-" "We don't need your hospitality," Trif grunted. "Can you say that to the soldiers who were injured in battle?" "You were the one who inflicted them!" "This is war, child. All I'm proposing right now is a temporary truce." Trif refused to speak more. … .. . 3:03 PM There were chairs for every person in the hallway. Once t
"I apologize," Spellmaster said. He continued, "Let me explain this clearly. The Magic Network is one of Haydel's proposed theories, it is described as an untouchable place where any form of magic, evil and good, is defined." "Defined?" Phize pondered. "Simply said, it is where magic does what it does. Why magic works the way it does." He paused for a bit then went on. "Haydel. The most infamous person in the history of man. A grand master magic practitioner and might possibly be one of the strongest beings in the universe. I've read multiple texts about her and there was barely any new info about her. However, a few years back, I raided one of the Alganists' bases." "Hold on, what are Alganists?" Taya questioned. Spellmaster sighed, "You people barely know anything of this world. Fine." He elaborated further, "Alganists, one of Altrew's minority cults. They worship beings named as Algans. Supposed beings grant them powers. Now, back to the topic at hand. I raided one of their
"Honestly, I'm flabbergasted. I didn't get a single person to agree or understand my concerns at hand. No matter, there is a reason that we were created differently, so we share different views and opinions," Spellmaster stated.He turned to Braille and Leonard."You two, go search around the school and find those grimoires," he instructed them."Roger!" both of them answered.Braille took the left side while Leonard took the right side.Martin shouted, "Braille! I haven't taken care of your broken arm yet!"All of them stood up."Hey! What are you doing?" Hazel yelled."I'm ordering them to find the grimoires," Spellmaster answered."You can't do that! We didn't agree to your cause.""I have to make you all understand. At whatever cost, I will go on and follow what my heart tells me to do.""You jerk!"Hazel ran off to chase Braille."Hazel!" Phize yelled.He was about to chase after her when Trif stopped him. Trif shook his head."We have a bigger problem in our hands," he said to P
Inside a classroom on the third floor, Helix was sleeping on a desk but he was disrupted when he felt violent rumbling.He stood up and looked everywhere."Where is that coming from?"The rumbling stopped. He went outside the classroom and examined his surroundings."Where did the devil dogs go?""I-I don't feel so good. My face feels numb, but the injuries in my leg seem to have stopped bleeding somehow," he thought."Thank goodness, I managed to grasp how to cast a healing spell thanks to Martin."More violent rumblings formed. He fell to the ground."GYAH!"It ended shortly after a few minutes."Ow, ow, ow…""Who's causing all these quakes down below?" he pondered.He managed to stand up and he walked slowly."I-I should go and check it out."A few steps in and he was met with another quake, although, this was stronger in magnitude. He lost his balance again and saw a part of the hallway got shredded through by two unknown objects. He stared in shock.Shortly after, he heard the so
Right off the bat, Spellmaster cast two spells simultaneously, "Kill Phize! Kill Phize! Kill Phize!" Three magic circles formed and were directed at Phize. "The kid must have Spell Intercept and I know very well that every spell has a bit of a cooldown. It prevents spell spamming," Spellmaster surmised. "Cancel," Phize thought. One of the magic circles broke and so did those that came after. "What? How did he-" Spellmaster wondered. Trif and Lili charged at him. He ordered her, "Chant these effect spells with me." She nodded. He chanted, "Strength. Speed." Lili followed his orders, "Strength. Speed." Both glowed red and yellow for a quick second. They charged Spellmaster. "Blowback," Spellmaster chanted. A strong force pushed both of them back. They held their ground. "First and foremost, I have to eliminate Phize Gratham Drestil. He possesses an unknown ability," Spellmaster intellectualized. "Come to me!" Lili yelled. Trif nodded and did what she told him. She grabbed
Lili's eyes were half-open. Her strength was waning and her shoulder wouldn't stop bleeding.Trif panicked everywhere and he was even sobbing. He decided to rip through his clothes and wrap them around her shoulder."STAY IN THERE, LILI!"Phize stood there idly."I've never seen Trif cry this much," he thought."D-Don't worry, guys… I-I can heal… I've got some special blood in me…" she reassured.She glanced at her shoulder."Huh? Wh-Why isn't it healing? I-It should have recovered by now.""No need to speak any further, Lili," Trif told her."Now look what you made me do," Spellmaster spoke.Trif glanced at him with wide, open, and furious eyes."This is all because you wouldn't listen to my demands," Spellmaster explained, "Because of your foolishness… I, injured your frie-"Trif interfered, "Shut up, you sick maniac."Spellmaster simply raised his left eyebrow."Wanna continue?" he asked.Phize put his right hand on his face in disappointment."I was a fool. I should've connected m
"Were my eyes deceiving me? Or was Lili missing an arm? Were my eyes deceiving me? Or was Trif stabbed in the eye and lying dead on the floor?" Phize thought. He trembled in shock and fear and my legs gave in. "I can't process all of this. We were supposed to be together, weren't we?" he thought. He took a glance at Spellmaster. Spellmaster had this apathetic glare at Trif's body. "I hate it. I hate it. I hate it when I warn people and they don't listen," he said, "Now look what you made people me do again." He chanted, "Instant Regeneration." Just like that, Phize saw Spellmaster's bone and muscle form from his elbow and his left arm was brand new. He opened and closed his arm. "What a fruitless endeavor," he commented. "What did you say?" Phize asked. "I said that his sacrifice was useless," Spellmaster repeated. "You may be Pallitra's older brother… but you are nothing like her!" "What am I even doing? What am I doing right now watching as these events unfold? Haven't I
It was 4:13 PM.Spellmaster's body fell to the ground."Wh-Who are you?" Phize asked."Oh me? My name is Harris Whitey, the 7th Heavenly Knight," the man with the white coat and buttons answered."A-A Heavenly Knight?!" Grendall panicked."Thank goodness, it's finally over," Taya answered."Sorry it took me a while. I literally had to go from the Milas, which was at the edge of the continent, to Hiometry to receive the orders and finally, here at Veril," Harris explained.He took a good look around and saw Trif's dead body and what remained with Lili's."I-I'm so sorry for your loss," Harris apologized, "But at least the issue has been resolved. Phew, the one I killed just now was Spellmaster, right?"Phize, Taya, and Grendall nodded."Thank God, I managed to kill him in one slash," he stated."And who said I was dead?" a voice from behind questioned.Harris was alerted, took the sword he used earlier, and slashed behind him. The one who owned the voice was Spellmaster and he was back
