Chapter 126 - Mage with no spells
Unlike the two-handed thunderbolt strike, the one-handed thunderbolt was a lot weaker in comparison. Ray decided to use the spear that he had obtained from Killer which had the unique ability to reflect anything weaker than itself.
With the power of Ray's Ki infused into the spear he was able to reflect back the lightning shots at Morfran. As the lightning shots came rushing forward, Morfran started to morph into a form of white light.
Disappearing and allowing the lightning shots to pass through him, then returning to the same spot again.
"That spear is useful, and I'll take it from you and add it to my collection," Morfran said as he once again started to morph into white light.
Morfran had the ability to not only cast lightning attacks but to even turn his body itself into lightning. Morfran would use this to avoid attacks and teleport around the arena. Once Morfran had turned into lightning, it was almost impossible to predict where he would appear.
Slyvia was able to notice where the mana was gathering in the arena, by using her Ki in her eyes she could see what looked like little ripples or tears in space. She wanted to relay this information to Nes but knew that by the time she had told him, it would be too late.
Morfran then suddenly appeared right behind Ray but as soon as he did, Ray spun around and hit Morfran in the head with the back of his fist. Sending Morfran once again tumbling across the arena floor.
"But how?" Slyvia thought.
What Slyvia didn't know was that Ray had the ability of the Dragon eyes which was a far superior version of the skill that Slyvia used. Ray could instantly tell where the mana was gathering in the arena, allowing him to predict where Morfran would reappear.
Morfran wouldn't make the same mistake twice.
"It seems like he can see me, just who is this person?"
Morfran then noticed something. The man in front of him had displayed abilities of magic, yet hadn't used any throughout the fight apart from the one time when creating the ice wall. If the man was truly a mage, then why didn't he cast any ice spells at him?
It would allow him to not only attack from close range but from far range as well.
Morfran then started to gather lightning in his right hand. Ray continued to chase Morfran down but Morfran would teleport around the arena. Although Ray knew were Morfran would appear it was useless. Ray was unable to catch up with Morfran's speed.
The only reason why Ray was able to hit Morfran those two times was because the first one was unexpected, while the second time Morfran had come towards him.
Morfran realised that his theory must have been correct. For some reason, the man couldn't cast spells.
"What is he doing?" Mathew said.
Mathew to was wondering that if the man was a hybrid Mage/Knight then why wasn't he casting any spells. Instead, he just saw the man chasing after Morfran.
What the others didn't know was Ray currently had no spells. Ray's body was strange. One time when going to the Avrion library, Ray had come across a magic book. He knew the system had stated he now had mana points yet when he tried casting the simplest of spells nothing would happen.
Ray came to the conclusion that the only way he could use magic spells was to unlock it from the system first.
While Morfran was busy running away, this whole time he had been gathering up mana in his right hand and finally whatever he was gathering was ready.
Morfran then lifted his hand into the sky and a little black cloud appeared similar to the one before only on a smaller scale.
"Nes, get out of there!" Slyvia shouted
Slyvia knew Morfran was planning to do the same thing he had done to them, to Nes. Morfran then chucked the small cloud into the air and burst into a rain of thunder, only this time on a smaller scale and more concentrated around Ray.
Ray tried his best to move but as he did a strike of lightning would hit him, causing him to be paralyzed for a few seconds. Shortly after, Ray received shock after shock from the lightning bolts. He was unable to move due to the temporary paralysis effect each shock had.
While Ray was stuck in the middle being hit by lightning continuously, Morfran started to gather a duel handed thunderbolt aiming right at Ray.
Finally, *BANG, the lightning left Morfran's hand and hit Ray dead on in the chest causing him to get knocked back into the arena wall.
Ray coughed out blood as he stood up from the ground.
"Dammit, 100 points still isn't enough, who is this guy?" Ray thought
At the same time
"Dam, he's still alive and moving, who is the guy?" Morfran thought.
"Do you think he can win?" Kyle asked looking at Sir K.
"Look at Morfran's body, his armour hasn't even been damaged, although the attacks on him looked strong, Morfran hardly took damage while this Nes person is slowly starting to be worn down."
Sir K then looked at Gary, Kyle, Martha, Monk and Dan who were all badly damaged and unable to move. Sir K looked at himself and he was in the best condition out of all of them.
"I have to help, I can't let you all die."
Sir K had been busy gathering His Ki back this whole time waiting for the right chance to strike but it looked like that time would never come. His only choice now was to fight with this mysterious man who had appeared.
But Sir K's gathering of Ki didn't go unnoticed. Ray could also see that Sir K had slowly been recovering. Ray decided to make his way over to Sir K while avoiding Morfran's lightning strikes. When he finally arrived, Ray picked up Sir K off the ground and moved him to the centre of the arena away from the other students.
"Can you fight?" Ray asked.
"Sir K nodded." He was ready to fight with the man, although their chances were slim, Sir K believed they had a small chance if the two of them fought together.
"Good, because I'm going to need you to fight him on your own for a little bit."
