21 Mortal Comba (1/2)
The next couple of battles went either really quickly or really slowly. Eventually my battle came up and the random guy I picked went to one side of the arena and I went to the other. We took positions and got ready to battle.
”Three... Two... One... BEGIN!” Yelled the mask guy
My opponent went first as I wanted to see what he could do.
”{Storm Magic: Thundering Beam}!” He shouted
The magic was very similar to Skyrim as it looked really similar to the sparks spell but had a much longer distance. Sadly this lighting type of magic was surprisingly slow even though it was lightning. Upon seeing this all I could do was just sigh.
”{Creation Magic: God's Weapon}” I said for my first spell without even opening my book. The sword in my hand had a steel grip that wasn't Anti-Magic as in the six months of training, I've changed the sword slightly so that if I hold it properly, it doesn't take all of my mana.
I simply put the blade up to my face and let my sword eliminate the magic. Once he finished the spell and I eliminated all of the magic, I started to slowly walk forwards. My opponent after seeing my eliminate the magic started going crazy and fired spell after spell at me. I continued walking slowly before standing around twenty feet in front of him and stopped.
”C-Can't walk any further can you? Have you finally realized the strength of my magic!?!” My opponent boasted as he saw me stop
”It's time to end this! {Storm Magic: Thun-”
Before he even got his spell off, I quickly casted my own spell. ”{Wind Magic: God's Fist}”
A giant fist of visible fast moving wind appeared above him and hit him into the ground.
During the couple months of training and weeks of walking to the city, I found out something about my Grimoires. I can create my own spells for the Grimoires instead of only having to rely on what spells the Grimoire had at the time of creation. This means that I can permanently upgrade my spells and not have to constantly go to people's Grimoires over and over again to just have a update.
Thankfully while I was thinking about all of this stuff related to Grimoires, my opponent was still unconscious from my God's Fist spell. Everyone was staring at me too. The people who where paying attention to my spell chants though had their eyes bugging out because the understood that I just casted two different types of magic spells without even opening my Grimoire.
Throwing my sword into the air, I released the magic that was making it appear and let it disappear into nothingness. I went back to the crowd and waited for the next battle to start. The next couple of battles where just like the previous ones except for Asta's battle and after a couple of battles, Yuno's battle was finally happening.
Yuno walked out with this person who was smirking the entire time. People where starting to talk to each other about this person's nobility and magic. Down in the battle part of the arena, the Noble was smack talking to Yuno about how since he is a Noble that he is obviously much better and wealthier then him in every way.
Hearing this I called out to Yuno and said one little thing.
”Show him the truth.”
This caused Yuno to smile and look at me before looking back to his opponent with a look of boredom on his face. The Noble started opening his Grimoire first and made a giant ball of lighting appear that was only growing bigger. Once the Noble casted the spell, only then did Yuno start to act.
Yuno opened his Grimoire while the ball kept growing bigger and bigger. The ball was sending blasts of lighting everywhere and the Noble has a gross look on his face. After saying something which I couldn't hear, the Noble sent the ball to Yuno who said and casted, ”{Wind Magic: Towering Tornado}”
A big tornado appeared in between Yuno and the ball of lightning and caused what appeared to be a stale mate between the two magics. However the wind from Yuno's spell lifted the Noble up and started damaging him heavily. Once Yuno's spell eliminated the ball of lightning, Yuno then cancelled his spell and let the Noble drop.
Everyone in the crowed gasped and awed in surprise that Yuno was able to defeat a Noble instantly. Upon seeing this, all I could do was have a slight grin on my face because I knew Yuno had it in him to be able to do it.
After a couple more battles, the night sky turned dark and the exams ended. The masked guy started saying ”We are going to call numbers, and the numbers called have to step forwards.”
Next a female squad leader appeared and said, ”Squad captains will then raise their hands for the people they would like to join their squads.” She also re-elaborated the fact about multiple squad captains trying to pick you and that yo may choose.
Then the guy from earlier who explained the battles, explained again about if no captain raises their hand about how you have to leave.
Then for the last time, a person with white silver like hair spoke up and said, ”If you aren't picked, leave immediately.”
After saying all this they then started calling out numbers and picking people or not picking people. Going through person after person took us all the way till morning until we finally got to Yuno. Yuno walked forwards and stood in front of them. A announcer said, ”All who wish to offer, please raise your hand.”
A second passed and then every single squad leader raised their hands. Everyone was talking and gasping from amazement and surprise. Yuno stood staring at them for a couple of seconds before saying, ”Please allow me to join the Golden Dawn.”
Up next after Yuno was Asta and he started to walk forwards after his number was called. Standing before all of them, Asta yelled, ”I'm Ready!”
The announcer then said again, ”All who wish to offer, please raise your hand.”
There was a awkward silence for a couple of seconds before the announcer said, ”No offers.”
”N-No way...” was all that Asta could say
