71 Chapter 19: Assassin attack (2/2)

”If you wanna get to them, you'll have to go past me.”

As i said that, i began to whisper a few random words again to make them seem like a chant, After that i propelled myself straight at him with Velox

he leapt to the side to dodge it but right after he did, i cast velox Duplici and used wind to change my direction to the direction he jumped to

”!?”

I stretched out my dagger and pierced his leg. While blood began to slowly flow out, he swung his dagger at me, to get me to let go, I cast Glacio through the dagger and leapt back.

The glacio will freeze the wound, he won't die from it.

The other assassin just watched his teamate slowly freeze up as i began to whisper random words from a distance

”Oi... What's wrong with that kids magic..? He started chanting after and yet he's already freezing up..?” Muttered the assassin which i had ignored

”I-it won't stop spreading, H-Hel-” Said the assassin which I had hit with glacio as he tried breaking off the ice

Before the guy could finish, I propelled a glacies at his head and froze it

”Yikes, that's gotta hurt... You're next, right?” I asked as I looked towards the first assassin that attacked me

”How old are you, kid?” Asked the assassin

”...”

”Not going to talk i see... Guess i'll just make you.”

”Big words.” i said

”The guy you beat was still a noobie, don't let it get to you.” Said the assassin

Right after he said that, he began to chant something

I could interrupt it by chanting faster, but that might seem unusual... Screw it, let's see what he has in store.

”Ventus agilitas” Translation: Wind Agility

Nothing happen, but i could feel wind being gathered on him... What's he planning..?

As i thought that he leapt at me,

”Wha-” I unintentionally let out once i saw how fast he moved

he went straight at me, and swung his blade midair, a strand of my hair was cut.

His speed, increased... He closed the 10m gap between in us in a single second..?

As i was about to leap away from him, he swung his dagger at me again.

I dodged it by tilting my body and he swung his other dagger, which i parried. He continued to attack me nonstop and i was being pushed back, even with body reinforcement on it's highest.

Cuts began to appear all over my hands as we continued this exchange.

Crap... I won't be able to hold out for much longer... And he's not giving me any time to fake chant...

Should i just use chantless magic? I'm going to lose at this rate... Damn it!

The exchange was constantly draining my energy

”It's over.” Said the man as he parried both of my daggers

My loosened grip caused both of my daggers to get flung away

I won't be able to avoid, do i use it..? No time to think, I have no choice

”Well done kid, but your luck ends here” Said the man as he raised his blade

Looks like i have no choice...

The man vertically swung his blade downwards aim straight at me and at the same moment i said ”Scutum Glacies”

Ice was starting to form, but there wasn't enough time,

I was too careless..!

Right before his dagger sliced through little ice that been formed, he stopped.

I looked up to see what had happened and was shocked

In front of me stood a black shadow and it was shaped like a... person..?
