Strange Worlds-Chapter 296: Quarterfinal (6)

’But I better not do this.’

Aya rubbed her nose and looked at the two people in the middle.

If she dared to break the formation when the battle was still ongoing, it was estimated that there would be many people who paid close attention to her because of this. They would not let someone like her who could break through the formation so easily to exist.

It was troublesome.

Aya glanced at Yun beside her and then furrowed her eyebrows.

If the formation rank was any lower, then she could use Yun as the reason. After all, Yun’s attainment in formation was not that bad. At the very least, Yun could still make rank 3 formation if she was given enough time. Her mana was also completely enough to make one.

But for rank 6...

The gap was too big.

Even if one wanted to lie, they had to make sure that the lie was reasonable to a certain degree. Only in this way would it be possible for other people to believe in their worlds. Otherwise, it would have been completely useless to lie because once it was too unreasonable, no one would believe it.

"Ready?" The referee looked at the two people and then said, "Start!"

Swoosh!

The shadow moved and then restrained.

Looking at this, it was clear that these two people were fighting over the control of the shadow and aimed towards their opponent at the same time. The two people didn’t move from their position, but their hands were moving forward, left, and right, trying to control the shadow.

"This..."

Silas saw this and his expression turned solemn.

Shadow control was one of the basic magic inheritance that people in the Black Family inherited. It was not a very precious skill and could be said to be relatively common because everyone in the Black Family was allowed to learn it.

This skill was the basic for their control over their shadow element.

Normally speaking, shadow magic had an entity given by their mana and then directed for their control.

People from other families could sense the movements of the dark element and would react appropriately to respond to their attack or so on. But the people of the Black Family who had awakened their magic inheritance would be able to sense the shadow more clearly.

Not only that...

If they were willing, they could even try to use their own mana to control the shadow by themselves. This would reduce the mana consumption for them because when they were making the shadow, they had to use some mana.

But...

This action could also directly drain them of their mana. Because in order to gain control of the shadow, the two sides would have to use their mana and in this process, the two of them would clash against each other.

Silas knew very well that if Leon were too stubborn, he would be defeated due to the lack of mana directly.

This kind of battle was the type of battle that they tried to avoid.

And Leon was already at the disadvantage in terms of mana amount alone due to his younger age compared to Dylan.

Swish!

The two of them seemed to notice this and directly released their control over the shadow at the same time. They knew that if theyd didn’t do that, they would be forced to fight the possession of the shadow and this prolonged battle would only exhaust their mana.

In that case...

"Shadow spear!"

"Shadow shield!"

"Shadow..."

The two people directly launched various dark element magic one after another. These were only rank 1 magic spells, which can be easily learned in the academy when they were still studying there. Even if they graduated early, they still spent years in the academy.

During those long years, there were naturally also times when they went to the library to find some rank 1 skills.

Even Aya also went there.

For branch family members, the academy’s library was one of the few places where they could learn magic spells for free.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

From the competition over the shadow, it turned into rank 1 magic spells battle.

Aya looked at the battle in front of her and shook her head. Leon’s mana control was still worse than Dylan and she could see that even if the two of them were both using rank 1 magic spell, Leon’s mana was depleting at rapid speed while Dylan’s reduction of mana was still within controllable range.

If this continued, it was estimated that Leon would run out of mana first.

’Is this still another battle of mana consumption?’

This kind of battle was not uncommon, but it was also quite boring to watch. Because if they were good enough, they could even drag the battle to the point that it became very strenuous for both sides to fight.

’Hmm?’

Aya looked in Dylan’s direction and arched her eyebrows.

It seemed that this Dlan was already impatient.

The mana fluctuation became unstable and then, Aya saw that Dylan used rank 2 magic spell and blocked Leon’s attack.

"Damn you...

"I’m the shadow in the darkness. Living in the dark and eating the light to remain in the darkness...."

"I am the shadow in the darkness. May the shadow come forth and help to block the enemy in front of me..." Leon felt that the chant from Dylan was unusual, which made him uneasy, but he still quickly chanted the familiar defensive magic spell of the dark element.

The dark element was indeed more suitable for control, but it didn’t mean that Leon didn’t know other spells. On the contrary, he was very familiar with various magic spells of the dark element because he learned them all one by one.

The main goal back then was simply to beat up Aya, though.

"...There are two sides of light and darkness, why can’t the darkness be the winner? Dark cannon."

"...Shadow Wall!" ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Rank 4 magic spell!

When the magic spell was used, the dark element rushed towards Leon and shattered the shadow instantly. Leon’s face was pale and he used the shadow to wrap around his body.

Bang!

At this time, the referee quickly blocked it.

But before he could relax, he saw that Dylan was not done.

"Spear of darkness!"

Instant rank 3 magic spell?
