This time Yman activated the Rapid Leap ahead of time.
He knew that...if he was a little bit late of using his magic, it would bring him no good.
He already estimated the right timing to use his Rapid Leap. And also, he estimated the distance. However, he was not 100% sure that his timing would work. A light was bursting on his feet when he leaped and dove to his right side in a very quick motion using his Rapid Leap.
The two boulders passed through at the hairsbreadth of him. His body rolled two times on the ground and he pushed abruptly his body to stand. .
He glanced at the cliff edge and noticed one of the boulders at the very edge.
He narrowed his eyes and ran towards the other side of the cliff where he saw a group trainee ganging up against their enemies.
He needed to run fast. The two mini golems were chasing him. They sometimes throw boulders.
"Rapid—Leap?" Mai muttered.
"That is the same ability used by that beautiful girl, right?" Bob questioned.
"Yeah, and looks like, Yman was lucky enough to get that skill too. Although, Miss Almina was much better in executing the skill," Mai replied.
"Is that skill, that great?" Chloe asked.
"Of course, every skill is great, but it depends on the one using it," Mai answered again.
"Oh, T-that is—right," Chloe mumbled after hearing Mai's reply.
Almina breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Yman was able to avoid the attack.
"B-Best friend, w-why are you smiling? And why is your face becoming red?!" Beside Almina, Kesha was flustered while staring at her.
"H-Ha? W-What are you talking about Kesha?" Almina awkwardly touched her face.
"Your face is getting red! Are you okay? You're not sick, are you?" Kesha worriedly questioned her.
<Hah! Missy was happy that that person managed to survive and she's feeling warm that she have the same ability with that person.> Cal said but Kesha did not hear it.
"N-No no-no, I'm fine..." Mina reasoned out.
On Kesha's shoulder, her System Deity was sitting on it and was firmly holding her clothes to avoid falling on the ground. He could fly though.
The other trainees were still fighting with their intended target. Some of them managed to defeat their foe and some in equal strength and currently in a stalemate. While some had chosen to give up after they had experienced how difficult it was to kill this enemy.
The other magicians had the upper hand with their magic while the others had a bad match up. It depends on their type of magic if they had the upper hand or not with the enemy they would be facing.
The group of Kiko managed to kill the two enemies out of three, and now only one was left.
Thud! Another monster's attack was defended by an earth shield.
Hah...hah...hah... each of them was gasping for breath.
"Kiko, finish it now, Bro!" Marco shouted to Kiko.
"Y-Yeah!" A bead of sweat trailing down on his handsome face. At the corner of his eyes, he saw that pretty girl Almina Amulet. He felt warm when he noticed that she was looking towards their direction.
Kiko felt motivated and a smile leaked on his handsome face.
Shing! A sound of piercing an air was generated when Kiko lifted up his sword in a quick action using his well-toned arm's muscle.
The tip of his sword pointed to the sky while his hands firmly held the handle. Suddenly, his sword was engulfed by surging fire.
The spectators have focused their eyes on him. Even the instructors nodded their heads and smiled.
"That Kid had some skill," one of the instructors commented.
"That form, could it be... The Earth-Crushing Technique?!!!" Another instructor shouted in surprise.
"Hoy, hoy, hoy... wasn't that skill supposed to be hard to execute. Did he learn it in advance?" An instructor wearing a robe and a straw hat plus a piece of a tree branch in his mouth said in surprise upon seeing Kiko's stance.
"Fufufu, that kid is quite amusing," the female instructor said.
"Mina, look, look at that guy using a powerful skill. And he's quite handsome too," Kesha said to her best friend.
But Mina only took a quick glance before turning back her focus to the person that was trying to escape from the chasing two golems. While her white hands were firmly gripping in front of her well-developed bust.
She was praying that...nothing bad will happen to him. To that person being chased by two golems.
Not far from them...
"What they meant by Earth-Crushing Technique?" Bob was confused upon hearing the instructors' remarks.
The source of this content is novelB(i)n.NET.
"Earth-Crushing Technique was one of the paths in pursuing magic. Skills that belong in this category were mostly explosive with high damage skills and sometimes have an area of effect type of skills, and are supposed to be taught in the academy," Mai explained.
"Explosive skills, heh!" Brai muttered.
"So, that guy had learned it beforehand, what a cheat," Bob said while knitting his brows.
"Uh-uhm...i-is that one of those skills that can be learned through training?" Chloe asked shyly.
"Yes, Chloe, that technique is one of the ancient techniques that can be learned through training, well, we will mostly learn it as well in the academy but that if, if you choose that type of skill category. I heard there are more categories that we can choose upon," Mai replied.
"W-Wow! Miss Mai, you're so knowledgeable in this!" Chloe's eyes glistened like a child that got a new toy.
"Hah! She was an idiot who was infatuated by magic..." Brai said blatantly.
"You!!!" Mai shouted at his face.
Goaaar!!! Their conversation had been cut by the sudden roar of the mini golem.
Kiko was about to slash the grieving mini golem at his front when...
Tap, tap, tap... They heard fast stepping sounds approaching them. They glanced and saw the guy they hated the most.
Kiko scoffed seeing that guy fleeing away from his target and running in haste towards them.
"Hahaha, look... it's him! that dummy is fleeing like a chicken," Marco laughed.
"Puwahaha, this shit cowardly man! Run for your shit life idiot! Puwahahaha!" Bruno yelled while ridiculing him.
"Gyahaha, that guy was thinking he was playing temple run!" One of Kiko's friend added.
Wahahaha! All of them were laughing. Even though they were feeling tired, they still have time to ridicule.
Even the group of instructors that were watching the battle was confused by this kid's action.
The other trainees and the soldiers from the empire were as confused as them.
Yman did not mind their ridiculing words and laughs. He had no time to mind them. The two golems were chasing after him like tails.
Seeing Kiko's stance, Yman sneered at him.
While the others were thinking that Yman was out of breath trying to escape from the two mini golems chasing after him, Kiko on the other hand, doubted what that person was trying to do.Why was he sneering at them while being chased?Kiko's face twitched when a sudden realization came into his mind, he shouted immediately to his friends to shoot that guy. Although everyone was doubting him because their mana was almost dry, they followed him anyway.Generating the last drop of their mana, two of them managed to cast a spell and shoot towards Yman.When Yman noticed the incoming magic attacks. He wanted to laugh. Water Blades in the air and Ice Spike from the ground, these two attacks were fast approaching him. He was too envious of their magic.The spectators were dumbfounded of why those guys were attacking that laughing stock trainee. Even the instructors knitted their brows.. But they had guessed that that person might be trying to do something again. Like what he did to the other
Gritted his teeth, he was holding his sword firmly with his sweating hands. Again, pointing the tip of the sword to the sky; after permitted a huge sudden breath from his mouth, the sword once again was surging with fire.All around him, the monsters pouncing their massive body at him. He noticed his health points rapidly decreasing. Thanks to his Mana Membrane ability, the damages he took were not too high. But before his health points reached zero, his eyes glinted with fighting spirit. A moment later...Meteor Blast!Kiko shouted the name of the skill and successfully used it this time.After he shouted, a loud bang was heard by everyone; smokes and clouds of dust hovered in all directions surrounding him forming like a ring, then it expanded in an instant like an invisible force that pushed back all of the monsters that hoarding him..It was a strong downward strike onto the ground. Which generates a mini shockwave to knock-back all of the enemies within the radius of 5 meters awa
He has 10% stamina left and he was currently pushing the boulder to drop it off of the cliff.The boulder made a shaking motion as it slowly lifted from its position.Instructor Goki fixed his gaze at the young man trying hard to push the boulder. Even the other trainees were watching him, they were wondering what he was doing. Not all of them were smart enough to figure his motive.Goki had no plan to stop the battle if the one battling did not give up. This year was a vital year for the academy. So they needed to be strict at training them.Seconds later....GOOOOOHHHHOORRRR!!! The ground rumbles when the golems start running towards Yman's direction while howling in weird sounding noises.Since Yman was the nearest among them all. He was the next target of those golems who he lured to Kiko's group. After Kiko gave up, they had lost their target again and needed to find a new one that was nearest them. In the end, it backfired at him. His only chance now was to drop the boulder at t
After Almina and the blonde girl defeated all the monsters charging towards Yman, he lost his consciousness.The battle ended and the soldiers finished all the remaining few monsters.Then the carriages proceeded from their halted travel.Yman slowly opened his eyes. He was greeted by a single lamp hanging up above the ceiling of the room and illuminating the surrounding with yellow brilliance. He glanced around him and noticed that he was inside a tent.He frowned after remembering what was happened before he lost his consciousness, he slowly pushing up his body.He felt weak and dizzy. But he could manage somehow..He scanned around him but he could not see his deity Sistela. He needed to concentrate to feel his deity's whereabouts, though he needed to use his stamina. But because he was in a weakened state, he could not carelessly use it.A moment later, Yman noticed a part of the tent-making a slight movement, which he believed was the entrance of the tent.After a second,
The words of Miss Pai last night remained in his mind.|What I originally wanted to do, ha...|While thinking this. Yman's face was twitching. Behind his bangs, a glint was visible in his eyes.And a scene was about to replay inside his mind when..."Y-Yman welcome back.."A scene that was supposed to appear in his mind was interrupted by a sudden greeting from the shy girl in front of him.Yman likes waking up from a nightmare blankly glanced at Chloe. He saw her staring at him with a puzzled look.He blinked his eyes."Y-Yman, are you okay?" She asked.He also noticed the other trainees glances at him. The two girls and the other boys besides them were whispering to each other while stealing glances at him. He doesn't know what they were talking about, and Yman doesn't care.Though he felt that their topic was unkind to him. Maybe he developed a new skill that enables him to sense other people that are talking ill at his back. Yman sighed. Certainly, it was only his imagination play
While the carriages traveled, they encountered many other monsters along the road. But the soldier guarding them handled the monsters with ease.It looks like they were professional in handling the type of monsters. Maybe these monsters were common in these areas.Yman noted a specific monster with a metal-like body and crawled with 16 legs. It looks like a spider but different in some way. Since a spider has 8 legs, whereas, this monster had 16 legs.The soldiers said that it was a hybrid monster known as Mustang Spider. Its colored dark green skin was as hard as steel. The soldier requested to change the route. Not even they could manage to kill it with ease. They might be able to kill it, but for sure, some of them would fall victim to the monster..That monster was rank C+. Monsters in this rank are also known as 'Wanderer'. Because they usually wander around the place, hunting for enemies. Every time they kill their prey they become stronger. And they had the ability to summon mo
No matter what Yman said, Instructor Goki could not just believe him this time. Yman almost succeeded in killing multiple monsters in the last battle, although in the end, he failed.So he could not believe him fully right now. Even if he said that there was a higher chance that they could kill it.Goki knew that this was just a baseless assumption by this young man.So Goki said, "no is no, sorry Lady Almina, your father will get mad when something happens to their princess, so, I cannot agree with you this time."Goki said and turned his back at them while saying, "go back to your carriages this is an order!" He was waving his hand to signal them to go back.After hearing him. Almina felt helpless. If it's about her parents, there was nothing she could do..She glanced sadly at the back of the person in front of her.He was slightly shorter than her and his back curled slightly when he was standing. But even so, she was feeling warm while watching this person's back.They were surpr
Almina and the blonde girl seemed like there was some kind of rivalry towards each other. This is what Yman suspected after noticing their brief staring contest.Both of them were fairly strong. So it was just natural that each of them saw the other as a rival.He decided to ignore them. After all, he was an unrelated person. He would be thanking Almina and this blonde girl later if he got another chance.Anyway, he noticed another guy with the principal and Miss Blonde.But Yman did not recognize him.He had a suspicious smiling face.. Yman stared at him. But it seemed like he noticed his gaze and glanced at him and smiled.|Even his eyes were closed?| He was surprised seeing the guy had closed eyes. Even his deity was laying on his head, seemed like, having a lazy life.The principal beckoned to Instructor Goki to let the youngsters handle the monster. After all, if they could not produce results this year, the academy would be finished.Instructor Goki doesn't like the idea since t
As the fight of Yman against the Noble Rat reached the peak, the meeting of the Elites was still ongoing.After explaining to the Elites about the current situation of the academy, Elder Paan proceeds on discussing the shaded individuals that could be seen displayed in the holographic screens at the end of the clips."I'm sure you are wondering who those people on the screen..." the elder stopped then glanced at the Elites one by one. Noticing that all of them had no idea who those people are, she continued by snapping her fingers. After the elder snapped her fingers, the ten shaded in black figures suddenly revealed their real appearances.The Elites noticed that each of those individuals was wearing academy uniforms of different academies.They also noticed one specific person wearing an academy uniform from the Middle Region Magic Academy. .She has smart looking-eyes, a small nose, and rosy red lips. Her sky-colored pupils gleamed like the crescent moon reflected on it. And her sh
While the meetings of the members of the Elites were ongoing, Yman was struggling against the evolved Evil Rat which now had the name of Noble Rat and reached the pinnacle of D, the D+ Wanderer.Now it stood on its 2 limbs. It's supposed red eyes had turned into hazy yellow. Its pure dark blue fur that covered its whole body, now had milky-white fur arcing on its stomach down to its middle part. Its two ears grew longer, about 10 inches long that stood like horns on its pointy head. And on its face, gleaming in metallic luster, the whiskers were protruding like long needles. Even its razor-sharp claws had grown longer and sharper.Khaaaaaaaa!!! It suddenly yelled. The raspy shrill from it sent shivers on him.The cloak he was wearing had already torn, the clothes were tattered, and marks of blood could be spotted on some of its torn areas.If not because of his healing magic, not only his clothes would be torn at the moment but also his flesh.. For once he was thankful for having such
Not only humans fighting against humans, but also demihumans were against demihumans, and beasts fighting against beasts."The video you just watched were collections of clips from the previous battle in the Worlds Magic Academy Competition." Suddenly said the elder in a stern voice that devoid of emotions.It was cold and a little hoarse.Ahem. (She cleared her throat once again.)The Elites remained silent waiting for the continuation of the elder's words."Probably, some of you might already know the purpose of Magic Academies. Or why it was in such a rule or system. It was of course to prepare you from the sudden attacks of the real enemies lurking everywhere.. But before that, some precarious issues needed to be solved at first.Support us at N~ovElB(I)N(.)NETRight now, this academy was in a tight situation and was in danger of getting pulled out from this world. If that happened, not only the academy would be gone.Also the city itself.Since, this city's resources mostly came
The other Elite members seemed like they were from the native of this world.Kesha glanced at the empty seat. The person whoowned it was still recovering at the moment. He was sent to the famous magical hospital in this city.Sadly, he had injured himself at that time when they fought the rank C+ Mustang Spider. But because of having great talents in magic and owning 4 different types of ability for being a fledgling trainee only was more than enough for him to acquire a seat as an Elite trainee without going through the test.Kesha could only sigh and prayed for his fast recovery.Next to her was a man with medium length red hair. He was sitting calmly while closing his eyes and arms across his chest. With his right leg on top of his left knee.. This person was no other than Mai's cousin, Brai.Kesha noted that this person was also a handsome man and was kind of mysterious. Unlike the infamous wastrel who only knows how to hurt his comrades.Everyone certainly thought that that guy
Reflected in his eyes the shining image of the Evil Rat that was undergoing an evolution phase.The brilliance that envelopes its body had even brightened the place a little.Tsk! Yman as he gnashed his teeth. Never in his wildest dream to be able to see an actual evolution phase of a beast.Seemingly, beasts or monsters will undergo an evolution phase when their battle experience reached a certain threshold.Currently, Yman was downed on his butt on the cold pavement ground, while staring at the Evil Rat in surprised and without batting an eye. Sistela's voice rang in his ears which made him snapped from the shock and pulled him back to reality.He did not even notice his health points which now short of 150 points. After the tail whip attacked that landed on his back, -150 health points were taken from his health bar..He certainly questioned his luck. If seeing it from a different perspective, he might be lucky for witnessing such a rare event. But the situati
Sistela warned after noticing the second Evil Rat made a wise leap in the air while opening its largemouth. Some green liquids were splattering around and looking like small particles of lights when they were hit by the illumination of brilliance from his holographic map.Yman narrowed his eyes. Even though this Evil Rat managed to avoid the ball-web traps, the smoke abled to hinder its vision.He summoned his strength and sent a stab to the leaping Evil Rat.Shing!-30 HP in the red text was visible in his vision when his stab was successfully landed on the Evil Rat's jaw, which followed by squeaking noises from the Evil Rat when the tip of Gladius sword dig in about 3 centimeters in its flesh.|20 defense!| Yman quickly calculated the enemy's defense based on the damage that he dealt it.He has 20 attacks and an additional 15 from the resonance with his deity and another 15 from his Gladius sword. It was 50 in total, but he only managed to take 30 of the monster's healt
Yman scratches his head and forced a dry laugh when he realized that the water passage was still too small for the monster to pass through.He remembered what Mrs. Merced (the woman who issued the quest) said to him. That when he reached the dead end, there was a hole where a person can pass through to his left side. But Yman could not see it, the hole that she mentioned.Suddenly, he heard Sistela's call: He then glanced at the map that was hanging steadily above him. He noticed a thin layer of the wall outline. Based on the map, it was located two steps away from his left side."Must be a camouflage." He muttered and summoned his spear from Cyber Storage..He then pokes the part where the thin layer on the map was shown. Yman narrowed his eyes when the wall that looks so sturdy bend inwardly like a piece of something soft like it was made of cloth, a camouflage cloth to be specific.|It's a well-made replica of the wall.| He thought. |But
The Underground Channel entrance located at the west side of the city, under the bridge, and near the river-dam that streaming steadily towards the end. On the opposite side of the entrance, there was a big dumpsite area that could be seen a little distant from the river-dam. The place was known as West District.At the dumpsite, he could see some smokes that were flying towards the sky and resembles the clouds as they continued to hover higher.After Yman stepped in the entrance, he asked his deity to activate the radar.Sistela replied:He said: "It's not sudden. It's better to have a perfect mapping from the entrance towards the farthest area that we can reach." She questioned him.He scratched his face and replied: "Don't worry, we sure to leave the place before it happened.."Hearing what he said, she resigned then followed what he wants and activated the radar without further retorts.But she really was worried if she emp
Yman asked Sistela about the current time before they going to enter the Underground Channel entrance.He nodded at her after her reply and reminded himself that he only had 2 hours to finish his intention in this place for the day.But Sistela has seemingly noticed something.Suddenly, her complaint was heard by him.At the moment he was wearing a cloak of black color. It covered his body like a robe. His mouth and nose were covered by a mask to get rid of the pungent smell that might invade his throat. The cloak and mask both had poison resistance.His enemies were poisonous creatures, so, it was only natural for him to dress such a way.. No one knows if when the danger would come. One could only realize a danger after they found themselves in a situation.Yman's lips extended into a smile after hearing her, then he cleared his throat and said: "It's not like that. The air
