Physics The Greatest Magic 86 Chapter 33: Team Battles

"*inhale*" I filled my lungs with as much air as I could and reinforced my limbs, torso and senses with magic

"Advanced cla.s.s fire magic: Fire "

While he was distracted, I grabbed on to his head with both of my hands, while covering his face

"Wh"

Before he could finish I slammed him head first straight on to the ground

"GAH-"

The saliva in his mouth was forced out on impact and he started to tremble

Was that too much...

Shortly after, he turned unconscious and light particles surrounded his body before it removed him from the area

The badge count under my badge number changed from 8 to 9

"That's one..." I muttered as I stared at the 3 others who were having a free for all

"When did he... Truce?!" The girl asked as she looked at the other two guys she was fighting

She had long brown hair and determined look on her face, the air around her felt familiar but I couldn't recall why

The two guys nodded and looked at me

"Was I included in the truce?" I asked with a nervous smile

"Let's get him! Intermediate Fire magic: Fire Arrow" Shouted the girl as she cast a spell

Arrows made out of flames were formed in front of her, they looked like serenas but were slightly less defined

"Oo the chant version, not bad" I muttered

Around 10 arrows were formed, meanwhile the other two guys had only started their chant

"This is getting boring"

everyone's using the same intermidiate spells, aren't there any better intermidiate spells out there?

*Inhale*

I filled my lungs with air and leapt while using all my strength

While I was mid-air, she aimed her arrows at me and propelled them straight at me, the other two guys didn't expect me to charge in from the front so they weren't able to do much

When I reached the guy on the right, he lifted up his arms in an attempt to guard his upper body.

With my left leg i kicked his stomach which was unguarded

"AH-"

The momentum caused him to go flying back

Before the other guy could think I muttered a few words and propelled myself with velox straight at him

"Sto-"

I sent a kick aimed straight at the side of his head, without hearing what he had to say

*Thud*

He dropped to the ground and light particles covered his body, shortly after he disappeared

The number under my badge changed from 9 to 10

"I guess that leaves you" I said as I slowly walked up to her

"W-What...?" She muttered while she started to tremble

She looked around in a desperate manner as if she was trying to find something

It didn't take long for hope to reach her eyes

"H-Hey! Get up! We can still outnumber him!" She shouted towards someone

Who's she talking to...?

"W-What's wrong?" She asked

I looked over and saw who she was trying to ask for help

"Ohhh him, He won't get up, He's frozen" I muttered next to her ear

Light particles were formed inside of the ice and the guy disappeared, at the same time the number under my badge number changed to 11

"Kyaaah!" She screamed as she jumped back

At the same moment I noticed a few glares being directed at me from other people who were fighting amongst each other

"You didn't have to get that scared..."

I feel like I've been misunderstood...

"Y-You fell for it! Advanced fire magic: Uprising flames!"

The area where I had stood, rose up in fiery burning flames

"I-I... I got him..." She muttered to herself

"That was close"

The sound of my voice sounding perfectly fine, caused her to doubt her sanity

"What's going on... I had set up the trap and everything... So how...?" she asked as she refused to believe what she heard

The flames slowly dispersed and my figure could be seen more and more clearly

Her confused expression became even deeper once she saw what surrounded me

"Ice...?"

My body was completely submerged in ice which was currently melting, but at this point the fire had gotten weaker

"Mhm, Ice, I cast the advanced ice spell: Ice burial On myself right before your trap activated" I replied as I slowly walked up to her

"But how...? I didn't see you chant, and it's impossible to chant that fast..."

c.r.a.p, she noticed...

"No, I knew you had a trap prepared so I had already chanted before our interaction."

Lies

"W-Who are you...?" she asked as she looked at me

"Hm? Just a 12-year-old adven-"

Without finis.h.i.+ng what I had to say, I began fake chanting and then shortly after said

"Murum Glacies"

A Wall of ice was formed right next to us and a small explosion followed after it

"Tch, he noticed" Said the guy as he approached us with his group

Thanks to living on edge in the dungeon, I've gotten decently good at feeling hostility that is directed at me, I felt an attack coming, so I fake chanted and blocked it

But maybe it was too fast... was it realistic enough? Did she notice?

I looked over at her and was surprised to see that she had her head hung

What's she doing is she crying?

"You know, for someone with a normal hair colour, you're strong"

"What?" She asked as she looked up at me

My sudden question really confused her, but one thing I noticed is that from her expression, she still hadn't given up on losing

"We're kind of surrounded right now, how about a temporary truce?" I asked with a nervous smile

"Sure!" She instantly replied

"That was fast" I muttered

"I have a better chance of winning if I truce with you"

"What a change, a while ago you were crying with your head hung low"

"Huh? I was chanting"

…

"Interesting... So you hadn't given up"

"Of course not, I have to last at least until top 30"

"Yes yes, you have to last, but unfortunately, you're outnumbered." Said one of the guys that surrounded us

6 people surrounded us, they had blocked off every direction and were all chanting

"Hey... Any ideas?" She asked

"Just one" I muttered

After I said that I started fake chanting

"He's chanting! FIRE!"

From fire ball to Earth Shards attacks of each element was sent from every direction, all at the same time

"Sphaera Glacies"

------------------------------------------------------

"13 badges, I can't wait to see john's reaction when I get a higher rank than him"

"So that was your true aim" Said Ariel with a nervous smile

"Why do you want to get a higher rank than john?" Eleanor asked

"Eh?"

[Why...? Even if you ask me...] Thought Serena

"I do too, and I guess we just want to prove that we're improving and that we're stronger than he thinks" replied Ariel

"Mhm" said serena as she nodded

"I see..." Said Eleanor

They walked around and watched as people around them fought like there's no tomorrow

"Wasting all their energy in the beginning is a bad move." Said Serena as she watched them

"That's true" Replied Ariel

"O-Oi! There's 3 kids here, let's get some easy points!" Shouted one of the guys in a group

There were four members in that group so they outnumbered them by one

They hastily surrounded the girls and started chanting

"This will be easy..." Said another guy in the group

"Oi, what did you just say?" Asked Serena with a smile on her face

"Why does it matter?" Replied the guy

"You said 3 kids didn't you?" Asked Serena with the same smile but slightly colder

The guy ignored her and finished his chant

"Ariel" Said Serena

Ariel nodded

The two girls started fake chanting and two fire spears and two wind spears were formed around them

Each was aimed at one guy

"How?! We started chanting before them so how!?" He asked

"Maybe next time, do less talking and more chanting, oh and I'm not a kid" After serena said that she propelled the fire spear straight at him

"Sh-"

***

Light particles were formed and their unconscious bodies were teleported away

The badge count under serena's badge number changed to 15 and the count under ariel's number changed to 8

"Hmph" let out serena as she shook her head

"Serves them right, but Serena, why did you get so mad at them?" eleanor asked

"Because they can't correctly judge someone's age." Serena replied

"I-I see..."

[That's right they called us kids, I remember her getting mad about that before, but isn't getting mad over being called a kid, childish] Thought Eleanor

"Hm? Did you two say something?" Serena asked

[She's sharp...] Thought Eleanor as she shook her head

"Should we go collect more bad-"

Serena suddenly stopped

"Ariel!" Shouted Serena

"I'm on it!" replied Ariel

Ariel grabbed on to Eleanor and cast 'scutum ventus' while she jumped up

At the same time, serena leapt to the side

Not even a split second after, shadow spikes rose up from the area where they were standing

Serena's jump with eleanor wasn't that high so the spike would have gotten them if it was for the wind s.h.i.+eld which blocked it

The spike retracted into the ground, and a black haired kid ascended from inside of the ground shortly after

"Not bad... I was getting bored." He muttered
