18 – Duel 2 (1/2)

Subsequently I made two waterballs, which were just under 0.2 meters in diameter.

Danan and Ivan laughed seeing the waterball I made.

「At the very least, you could’ve made a fireball!」

「What do you plan to do with that small waterball?! If you want to play with water, go elsewhere!」

「What I plan to do with these, you ask? This is what I’m going to do」

I shot the waterball slowly towards Danan and Ivan.

「Are you underestimating us?」

「As expected of the magic from the guy with only one guardian deity pillar」

「Why not use the small fireball you used earlier?」

The waterball drew closer while they were laughing.

Danan swings his sword and slashed the waterball.

Obviously, slashing it with a sword was completely useless.

Ivan chanted and blasted the waterball with a fireball.

The moment fireball hit, the fire was extinguished.

The fireball was lacking the firepower needed to evaporate a waterball of diameter 0.2 meter.

Danan and Ivan started to get alarmed seeing the waterball draw ever closer.

They started casting fireballs and shoot it towards the waterball.

The casting speeds got faster and faster, but it also got messier.

The temperature of the waterball gradually rose, but the water does not evaporate.

「Shit!」

「Such a creepy magic!」

It was just a normal waterball, but it looks creepy it seems.

The only difference to a normal waterball was that it’s moving slowly.

Danan and Ivan finally tried to escape.

「Among all your actions so far, this is the best one yet. However…」

The duel platform is small.

If I raised the speed of the waterball just a little, it will catch up in no time.

「Shit!」

Danan, who was driven to a corner, slashed the water ball with his sword. Obviously, there was no way he could cut it.

The waterball drew closer and enveloped Danan’s face completely.

「Gobogobobobobo」

「S-stay away… gobobobobo」

Nearly at the same time, Ivan got caught in the waterball too.

When breathing is restricted, the number of actions someone can perform is also restricted.

This is especially true for mages who need to chant to cast magic.

Even a skilled mage, who does not need chanting, will have their concentration and rational thinking interrupted.

「Well, I guess this is the end」

Danan and Ivan can no longer do anything. I just have to wait for them to pass out.

Or so I thought, but the waterball enveloping Danan’s face got smaller with every passing second.

「Hou?」 I was a little impressed.
