Chapter 201: Restoration spell (1/2)
Inside the Training Pavilion Lobby, people were kept coming. The news of someone had surpassed the record of Lord Gregor had reached the ears of many residents on the campus.
Students kept coming to the Pavilion to secure the validity of the news. But upon arriving, everyone was surprised. They were as surprised as the other people that were already inside the lobby.
In everyone's face, the anxious expression of waiting could be discerned. Everyone was waiting for the result of the fight against the boss.
Those who came later had to ask the people who came recently.
Good thing that the Pavilion Lobby was spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people or maybe thousand if they cram-up like fishes in the sardine's can.
The Training Pavilion was one of the most popular establishments inside the campus.
And every day it was crowded with people who wished to train and some came to relax.
Right at this moment, the lobby was noisy with people's curious conversations.
”What! 2 minutes and 45 seconds only!” A person with unique bunny ears exclaimed upon hearing the reply of the person next to him.
”How could someone capable of that?!” Another person in the lobby asks in bewilderment.
Almost every newcomer had identical reactions when they heard the news. But the more they ask the more curious they get.
Some people were checking all the remaining dummy-fighting rooms that were currently in use. They knew that one of these rooms was being used by the new rank 1 trainee.
The ones who came out of the room were ambushed with questions. The person could only gawk and be puzzled by the current situation.
Just before they entered the rooms, it wasn't as crowded. But now, it was seemingly they were waiting for a celebrity to come out of the room.
But unfortunately, once they knew that it wasn't them, they scattered like rats that saw a cat. Then the person soon joined the group of curious people.
Around this time, Yman lost the ability to clash with the enemy's fin blades. And he had only one option to avoid getting slashed by it, to dodge with all his might.
The battle between them had become a chasing and catching game.
”Looks like Crimson is at the disadvantage. He cannot engage in a fight against a fully equipped enemy. Especially that it was fairly agile and strong,” Rea commented.
”But I still believe in him!” Cinde said resolutely.
”Eh? What are you-- a blind loyalist? Or his wife?”
Rea said in haste. She could not believe this girl's out of sense.
”E-Eh? C-Can be both…?” Cinde said shyly while fuming in red.
'She's not even denying it…' Rea thought.
Bang!
The two immediately glanced when a loud impact created a loud bang that rang inside the room.
They saw Crimson and the boss crashed to the floors away from each other. They wondered how it happened.
But Rea noticed it at the corner of her eyes. While she was conversing with Cinde, her focus didn't turn away from the fight.
In truth, the enemy sent combos of attacks to Crimson, and he evaded it by twisting and waving his body.
He crouched and successfully evaded the slash aimed to decapitate him.
Then he backflipped to evade the attack that was coming from below. While he did the backflip, the enemy failed to notice the kick he sent to its jaw.
Because of this, the enemy was sent flying back.
(But…)
Right after Crimson's feet landed on the floor, the last sphere shot towards him. And it was the biggest one, so the explosion was stronger than the first three bubbles.
He tried to dodge it by kicking the floor so hard and leaped back. But the impact of the explosion still got him.
