From MC’s Perspective:
Duel Arena,
“Magic artifact,” I said in my heart. I had never expected Senior Gilbert to give me such an expensive pendant. From this alone, I can say that he is worried about the duel.
Does the bloodline Hall plan to do some tricks? My eyes flickered with a cold glint.
Then looking at Senior Gilbert, I said, “Senior thanks for the artifact. But don’t worry, I will take care of that bloodline wizard.”
A hint of surprise flashes in his eyes. He slightly nodded his head and said, “Alright, you can go now. I will be watching your performance.”
Hearing that I nodded my head before following the staff toward the entrance.
A couple of seconds later,
I see a bright light coming from the other end. When we reached the entrance, the staff stopped his movements and let me in.
Seeing that I stepped inside the duel arena.
Gasp!
Right after, I hear people’s exclamations. I feel a lot of heaving gazes on me. Some of them were even heavy. Like a true powerhouse, existence is staring at me in the dark.
I hope this won’t affect the duel. Then ignoring their gazes and walked toward the center platform where someone already waiting for me.
Meanwhile, Clifton Cox revealed a cold smile on his face.
Seeing his evil smile, I sneered inside. It will be a matter of time before he is pressed under the ground. I want to see how he is going to smile then.
So in response, I didn’t show much expression and slowly walked forward and stood opposite him.
From the corner of my eyes, I recognized the bloodline Hall banner. Sister Carolina and Senior Mark came here to support me. Right at this moment, one more person appeared.
He is none other than Senior Gilbert.
His appearance caused another wave of commotion. So much so that Clifton Cox turned his back to see him.
“Harumph, what’s so good about the support?”
“I’ll beat you down in front of the whole crowd,” Clifton Cox said with a snort.
His words reached my ears. I shifted my attention back to him. This person is another arrogant clown.
But I want to know who gave him the idea of an official challenge post. Senior Gilbert’s advice once again comes to mind.
“It’s okay to be careful,” I said in my heart.
Suddenly, a loud voice reached everyone’s ears. It’s the official announcement.
[The Bloodline Hall’s Clifton Cox and The Sub-Taboo Hall’s Vincent Carey’s official duel starts in 5 minutes.]
[Killings are strictly forbidden.]
Right after the announcement, the atmosphere quieted down a little.
Everyone knows that the duel starts now.
A magic barrier immediately began to envelop the dueling ground. The magic barrier prevents the spell attacks. So that the spectator can be safe.
Meanwhile, I glanced around the barrier for a moment before my gaze fell on Clifton Cox. I used the system to scan his details.
After scanning the details, a dignified color appeared in my eyes. This guy is close to touching the level-5 barrier limit.
My attributes were indeed lower compared to his. If it’s a pure fistfight, then I would lose in a few moves.
But fortunately, I’m not betting on my attributes. From the beginning, I’ve been thinking of ending the duel using overpowering gravity magic.
Meanwhile,
The green-haired wizard and wizard with snake pupils noticed the appearance of wizard Gilbert Reese.
“Ha…Ha…Ha.Gilbert is here,” The green-haired wizard burst into joyful laughter.
The wizard with snake pupils revealed a cold smile on his face. These two have been waiting for this moment.
They want to damage the image of Sub-Taboo Hall in front of Gilbert Reese. And when it comes to the kid on the ground.
They don’t think a trifling level-3 wizard is capable of defeating a level-4 bloodline wizard. On top of it, they have given a black potion for insurance.
Two of them can’t wait for the duel to start.
On the other hand, Gilbert Reese also spotted the annoying from the bloodline Hall. From their expressions alone, he can infer a lot of things.
Carolina Slate was delighted by Senior Gilbert’s appearance. Senior Gilbert is a True House Wizard. It’s rare for him to take some time to support.
“Senior Gilbert, what do you think of this duel?” Mark Talley asked. It’s been a long time since he had met this senior. He wants to talk a lot.
Gilbert Reese’s eyes flickered with a slight glint. The image of Vincent’s confident look comes to mind. He answered, “I think our junior brother will give us some surprise.”
“Oh,” Mark Talley’s eyes lit up in surprise. He was surprised to hear such a high evaluation. Which made him further intrigued to watch the duel.
Carolina’s face is full of smiles. She has the utmost trust in batter tower rankings. If Vincent can do it there, then he can defeat the bloodline wizard.
At the same time, Lara White pushed down her thoughts and started at the duel stage. She wants to see how Vincent is going to fight.
She had wanted to challenge Vincent earlier. But there was no perfect opportunity. Everyone was occupied with trials.
Now that the duel is happening, she has a chance to see Vincent’s cards.
Similarly, other Halls were paying attention to this duel.
[The duel starts now!]
When another announcement came. I see Clifton making a move.
I simply uttered, “Gravity Field”
Right after the spell casting, a tremendous gravitational force descends on the stage.
Crack!
I released overpowering gravity magic. Under the heavy pressure, the platform cracked instantly.
Clifton Cox suffered a heavy blow from above. The force was so fast that he wasn’t able to think of anything else.
Tud!
Right after he crashed into the ground. His entire face is kissing the tiles of the duel stage. This awkward scene didn’t go unnoticed by everyone’s eyes.
Clifton Cox finally gains a trace of clarity. His face was written with horror. For the first time, he understands the meaning behind the gravity magic.
His entire body is screaming at him in pain. The gravity force was so huge that he wasn’t even able to stimulate his bloodline.
Suddenly the pressure was doubled.
Pfff!
He coughed up blood in pain. Bloodline wizards are known for having strong attributes besides the Power-type wizards.
But now he could hear the crackling of the bones. A wave of anger and humiliation appeared in his heart.
Suddenly, the image of two true house bloodline wizards comes to mind.
His entire body shuddered even under pressure.
“No, I can’t lose,” He shouted in his heart.
At the same time, seeing the flattened body of Clifton Cox my mouth curved into an arc.
This all happened in a blink of an eye.
Gasp!
The entire crowd remained silent. The result was beyond their beliefs. Clifton Cox’s situation is now miserable. ｎ𝚘𝚟ｌ.ｃｏ𝚖
He wasn’t even able to lift his magic.
The crowd showed a myriad of reactions.
The Bloodline Hall Gallery,
The green-haired wizard’s face turned ugly.
“We underestimated this kid,” The wizard with snake pupils said in a solemn tone.
“Taboo & Sub-Taboo magics are not simple,” The green wizard replied in a grim tone.
When it comes to duels, these are two things. The first one is the wizard level. And the second one is the wizard’s magic.
Right now, Vincent is purely dominating the duel relying on his magic. Which left the crowd speechless.
Sub-Taboo Gallery,
Mark Talley’s mouth twitched. He knows it’s an instant kill. But because of the rules, his junior brother is showing some restraint.
“Junior Brother Vincent is really powerful,” Carolina said with a smile. The match ended before they could think.
She couldn’t help but reveal a smile thinking about the concerns shown by Senior Gilbert.
“This?” Gilbert Reese looked stunned. After some seconds, a trace of clarity appeared in his eyes. Gravity magic contains a lot of mysteries. It’s one of the magic related to the starry sky.
Now he understands why his junior brother can fight across ranks. This is simply overkill. To defeat his junior brother Vincent, one must catch him before he casts the spell.
Gilbert Reese doesn’t know that his thoughts would be shared by powerful wizards decades later.
Taboo Gallery,
Lara White got up from her seat. This time her eyes were calm and crystal clear. There was no previous contempt or disdain. Even she forgets about Vincent’s suspicious talent grade.
Now she knows where Vincent gets all his strength from him. His gravity magic is too overbearing. She can tell that it can even contend against strong taboo magic.
A wry smile appeared on her face. She feels fortunate that she didn’t blindly confront Vincent.
She already started to imagine the duel scenes in her mind. She wants to know how her snowstorm magic can deter Vincent’s gravity magic.
The entire crowd appeared to be in shock. The duel was also under the eyes of some bigwigs.
Vincent’s powerful gravity magic sends a message to them. No one in the Inner House can defeat Vincent anymore.
