Chapter 491
The boy might be an expert level healer. And I also don’t know if he can regrow his own arm or not. This will be a difficult fight. But I can’t give up. I need to bring him to Varadis so we can find something that can stop those artificial master level mages from fighting us.
“By the way, have you reached master level in your healing? Just like your wind element?” I asked the boy.
The boy shook his head without hesitation. I think this time, the boy didn’t lie. That mean he’s at least an expert level healer.
“So, you’re an expert level healer?” I asked the boy again.
“WhaT DOeS iT maTteR?” the boy said with hoarse voice.
“It does matter. Since you can’t regrow your missing limb back, it means I have a chance to defeat you. Don’t prepare yourself,” I said as I charged at him who is flying now.
.....
“ShoULdn’T iT Be PrePArE YoURSelf?” the boy asked.
“I don’t want to fight. I want to win. Please lose for the sake of the world,” I said.
Before I can reach him, He tried to push me away with his wind magic. As expected of a master level wind mage. Even if he’s not a real master level mage and just an artificially made by someone, his magic is too powerful. And as it’s a wind magic, I can’t see it even with my Divine Vision.
But I’m an air mage. Even if I can’t see the wind, I can feel the movement of the air in the surrounding. Once I sense the strange movement of the air, I can tell where the wind is coming from and when it will reach me.
The wind coming from him is fast and strong. I can’t cut his magic in time, but since it’s not an offensive magic that will harm me, but instead it’s for pushing me away, I can just let myself get carried by the wind. Though I need to think of a way to win.
Now that I have tasted his wind magic, I can at least estimate how fast it is now. Next time, I can react properly.
After getting carried by the wind for a while, I escaped and start running toward the boy again. He didn’t move from the previous spot. He just stays there floating in the same spot. That’s just how confident he is, I suppose.
I run again toward the boy. And when I get closer like before, he also used wind magic to push me away. I don’t know why he didn’t use offensive magic, but this is good. Now that I have experienced it once, I can react properly.
Just as the wind that is trying to push me reach within my range, I swung Reizpear to cut it. Using my Aura to cover Reizpear and my will to cut even magic, I did it easily.
The boy was shocked to see that I can cut through his magic. That’s good. Now that he’s unprepared for this, I tried to cut his left arm now. He managed to dodge my first slash, but I won’t stop with just one attack. I have already expected that he can dodge my attack after looking at his body. That’s why attacked him multiple times.
He managed to dodge the first few slashes and thrusts attack, but I still didn’t stop at all. And slowly, since he is not used in fighting with his body, he slowed down and I managed to scratch him. But my aim is to cut off his arms. One arm is down already, but I need to cut his other arm.
Though It will still be bad if he can use magic without aiming with his arms. That’s how I trained my friends to use magic. If this mohawk boy can do that, it will be dangerous. I have to put the collar on him quickly as well.
Good thing that the people in the underground meeting room died. I don’t need to use portal to get one. I have used several collars and wrap them around the neck of the cult members, and they were killed by their own allies. Except for two whom ended up getting caught.
The boy managed to not get his left arm cut, while I also slash his other parts of the body so he won’t think that I only aim for his arms. And now, when he’s having difficulty keeping up with my speed, I get around his back and put a collar on his neck.
Or at least that’s what I tried. The boy quickly escaped far from me after I get to his back. By flying forward. So, I chased after him again.
It will be bad if he can gain some distance. He’s a master level wind mage even if it’s just artificial. He will escape and the fight ahead will be more difficult.
That’s why I used Blobbies and change it into a whip. With the whip, I wrapped it around his waist. Now, he won’t be able to escape from me unless he cut the whip.
“I won’t let you go. I will kill you right here,” I said.
“No! Don’t kill him!”
The one who said that was not me or the boy. It was Shirley who ended up following us as we started fighting in the sky.
I know that. I don’t have any plan to kill him. But if I say that I will capture him, he will think that it’s fine because no matter what I do, I won’t try to kill him. And he will still be alive no matter what. He can attack me however he likes if he thinks that way.
But if I made him think that I will kill him, his moves will be limited. And capturing him will be easier. That’s my plan. I guess Shirley didn’t realize it. I guess since I’m fighting a kid, she can’t keep her head cool.
So, I glared at Shirley with intent to kill. It’s the first time she felt my killing intent and it’s aimed at her. She felt the fear and stopped. I hope he realizes what I intent to do now.
“YoU aRE Not WEaK,” the boy said. I guess he’s still thinking about my lies back then.
“Thanks for the praise, but that doesn’t make me happy!”
Seems like the boy has adapted to his loss of his arm. And he can now use his offensive magic with his left arm, he used Air Slash on me. This time, I used my long-range slash attack to cut his magic from far.
I used my full power so even after I cut his magic, it would still reach the boy. But when my attack and his magic meet, an explosion occurred. My attach couldn’t reach him, and we cancelled each other’s attack.
“I guess that means I’m about as strong as an artificial master level mage. I am still not as strong as a master level mage. What a pain,” I said.
With this, if I meet the leader of the cult or the Archbishop who are both estimated to be real master level mages, I will lose in an instant.
Should I wait for reinforcement? But I had shown my killing intent to Shirley. I guess I can’t have her join.
As for the others, it seems like they choose to wait for further information. The only one who would come right away after hearing the report is Angela. But since she’s not yet here, I guess she’s training somewhere far away.
But if they hadn’t received further information after a while, they will also come over here. That will take some time. I guess I have to take care of this myself.
Hmm... I guess there’s only one thing left I can do. Well, I will do it then.
I run on air at full speed toward the boy, and the boy used Wind Slash again toward me. But I didn’t cut it. Instead, I used my left arm to block it.
It’s impossible to block a magic with my arm. Especially since the enemy is master level mage. But that will make him drop his guard. No one will think that I will sacrifice my arm to reach him.
“Get my arm!” I shouted at Shirley to wake her up from the shock. She stared at me who lost an arm, and then chased after my falling arm.
As for me, I managed to reach the boy and cut of his left arm as well. And I quickly let go of Reizpear, and grab the collar from my pocket and wrap it around the boy’s neck.
The boy was surprised, but he can’t do anything now. And without any magic resistance from him, I put him to sleep with sleeping gas as he starts falling. But I caught him, and chase after his falling arm.
An arm for two arms. And I will reattach it soon. I hope there won’t be side effects.
