Chapter 77: Going to leave (1/2)
Seeing him at close distance, Almina felt he was more mysterious and also weird. And yet, she also felt some kind of inexplicable familiarity with him.
YMAN's sneaked attack to directly decapitate the enemy had been spoiled, when Almina called out his name out of the blue.
His heart went 'ops' out of a sudden.
Because of this, his attack that was supposed to land on the enemy's neck deviated to its arm.
”Ugh, s**t, this sneaky person again!” The enemy who was still in pain swears in his breath.
Without wasting time, the leader tried to escape to his right, but a kick was coming to his face.
Seeing that the kick wasn't fast approaching, the leader snorted on it.
'Damn, he's not even that fast. If not by a sneak attack, this sneaky black bastard would never land a hit to me!' He grumbled inside.
But contrary to his expectation, he saw the kick deliberately approaching his face. He was watching it like watching it in slow motion.
However, his eyes slowly widened as the kick came closer and closer, and he could not bring his body to evade. The kick wasn't quick like it was a kick from a low-level magician, but why did his body have a slow reaction speed? He felt like someone was cursing him!
Almina had wide-eyes watching at it.
She thought that the black magician would miss his attack. She hurriedly followed up to stab the enemy if ever he evaded the black magician's kick.
However, Almina stopped, the kick bore deep on the enemy's face, under its hood. The leader was sent flying and knocked on the tree.
She wondered if the enemy just let himself get a kick. However, she quickly pushed the thought at the back of her mind when she noticed the enemy was wearing a puzzled face with blood gushing out of his nose.
”Bestfriend!”
She glanced at the one calling her name. She sighed in relief, after seeing that Kesha was fine.
”You again, bastard!”
Seeing the other enemy rushing towards him, Yman was about to use his illusion, ”Let me!” But he stopped when Almina muttered at him, and she dashed towards the approaching enemy.
Behind the mask, Yman forced a smile and extended his hand towards Almina, but she was unaware of it.
The enemy molded sharp winds and sent them towards her while laughing maniacally.
But Almina wasn't afraid. He dodges using her sharp and elegant moves. This enemy was weaker and slower than the other one. Almina wielded the ice sword on her left hand and the fire sword at the right.
The enemy was annoyed after all his attacks did not hit the target. Then it molded in both hands a bigger sphere of winds and sent them towards the beautiful girl.
Amina narrowed her eyes and increased her speed while leaping left to right to avoid the spheres.
Then she made a sudden leap, using her Rapid Leap ability together with her Sudden Assault, her figure disappeared, leaving some spec of light particles, forming like a piece of beautiful petals, dancing in the air.
”D-Dazzlingly beautiful...” Yman gasped and subconsciously muttered.
Dancing Petals Of The Twin Blades!
Almina whispered after her figure appeared ten steps away at the back of the enemy.
The enemy stood with an unbelievable face. A vertical and horizontal cut was visible on his body.
”A goddess...” He muttered before his body -- divided into four, then limped and fell on the ground. A moment later, his body was glowing then a deity was sitting on his back when the glow died down. His body went back into normal also. They glanced around to see the other enemy, but it was already gone.
”Kesha, where is that person?”
”Who?”
”The mysterious black magician.”
”Eh? He was just standing here awhile ago. I didn't notice when he left.”
”Is that so.”
”Ah, I could not even say my thanks for saving me!” Kesha shouted.
”Me too.” Almina added.
Moments later, many people from the academy arrived. They also said that the juniors successfully arrived at the hospital.
The unconscious enemy was taken to jail and will interrogate later.
Everyone couldn't believe that Almina was able to defeat the level 7 junior trainee.
Almina's name slowly gained popularity after defeating a junior level enemy.
For just a fledgling of level 4, it was rare to defeat level 7 junior trainees. Everyone in the Academy thought that no doubt Miss Almina Amulet was the upcoming Ace second only to Lady Ice.
Together with Almina's popularity, the rumors about the mysterious black magician started to take notice inside the city.
Almina didn't understand, that moment when she rushed in towards the enemy, she felt her power had increased tremendously.
On the other hand, the other academies had different reactions to this. Some started to show wariness at the Human City Zone 7, while some just thought of it as their ploy.
Inside the faculty room of Academy in the Human City Zone 1, a person on his 60 broke into a burst of laughter.
”Hahaha, what kind of fallacy news is this, Principal Li?” The person asked in amusement.
”But Principal Kim, there were many videos regarding this guy that they called, the mysterious black magician.” The person of his 50's said in a worried tone. He has a broad forehead and white hair on the side, wrinkled face, and a little beard.
