Chapter 125 - Mage or Knight? (1/2)

Wilfred and the other master Knights, along with elders had finally finished their meeting. They had decided in the end that it was too risky to send any reinforcements to the arena. Despite the amount of protest, Wilfred had made.

All the citizens were currently taking shelter at the academy while most of the knights had also made it back.

The people had been told to gather up in the dining hall, where they would be provided food while most of the knights stood on guard outside or on rooftops, to see if any dark guild members were heading their way.

While Wilfred was making his way to the dining hall to check up on the citizens, a squad leader had come running up towards him.

”Sir we have a problem?” The man said with a horrified look on his face.

”What's wrong?”

”It's our knights, there have been reports that several knights in the academy have been knocked out.”

Wilfred thought that a member of the Dark guild had managed to sneak in or there was a traitor among them it was a serious problem if that was the case.

”What's the damage?”

”There have been around 50 knights that have been reported but that's not all sir. A few of them are starting to wake up but there not able to use any of their Ki.”

Wilfred felt a shiver down his spine. The incident reminded him of what Ray had done in the arena but surely there was a limit to his ability. Did he really absorb the Ki from 50 different knights?

”Did any of them receive any damage.”

”No sir, they were knocked out clean but there were no visible wounds.”

This had only confirmed Wilfred thoughts, it had to be Ray. Wilfred didn't know how to feel about Ray's actions. Then Wilfred thought back to the prophecy and the elder meeting he had just had. It was too late to stop Ray now; he had grown too powerful. It was now up to Ray weather he would destroy the humans or save them.

****

Ray currently had 120 points in total in his mana pool. He was using around 100 of it to supplement his Ki to make it stronger, while leaving the remaining twenty for the transformation. Currently, Ray was the strongest he had ever been.

Even Ray was surprised by how powerful his attacks had Just been.

Morfran was furious, this was the first time in his life that someone had just punched away his thunderbolt skill like that. Morfran then proceeded to put both of his hands together. He cast another thunderbolt attack at Ray, only this one was twice as strong and twice as fast.

Ray could tell this attack was too powerful for him to hit back like last time, instead, he used his shadow skills to avoid the thunder strike. With Ray's dragon eyes skill, he could see when Morfran was going to attack.

The direction of mana was easier to see then Ki, so Ray was able to move and predict where his attack was going to be before Morfran was able to cast his spell. Although the spell when cast was almost instant, the use of mana wasn't.

Morfran started to fire thunderbolt after thunderbolt and Ray would continue to dodge them all.

”How does he know the black sash footwork?” Sir K said.
