The Great Shock [C73]

Seeing Shu Himo avoiding every spell everyone froze, not able to move a single finger due to the surprise, and Shu Himo abused the situation by suddenly throwing yet another silver rod.

*Tud*

Seeing that the fifth rod now is impaled in the ground, Shu Himo mumbled, "The first is done."

Most of the students did not hear him, but the few that managed to overhear what he mumbled felt their back covered in cold sweat: what does he mean by the first is done? Feeling an extremely uneasy feeling coming from the stage where the five silver rods are positioned, those students quickly jumped away on another stage.

Seeing the few students who jumped away, the others were puzzled for a moment but decided to do the same just to be sure.

Having gained a bit of time, Shu Himo threw more three silver rods in another stage.

*Tud* *Tud* *Tud*

While the rods did not hit anything, the uneasy feeling they produce made the other students distance themselves from them. A moment later, they all resumed their chants, creating multiple fireballs and earth spears.

Shu Himo looking at how they act around those silver rods felt like laughing, but he still did not waste the chance and threw more two silver rods in the stage.

*Tud* *Tud*

"The second is done." Taking back the scythe, Shu Himo immediately leaped toward another stadium, where some students are waiting for him.

While in mid-air, he suddenly noticed to be aimed by three earth spears, but not caring about it, he just nonchalantly took out the violin and used it as a shield. *Boom!* With the resounding the noise from the impact, the violin could be seen still unscathed.

The students who just cast the earth spear are dumbfounded: how is a violin this solid?

Reaching the third stage, Shu Himo immediately took out another silver rod, impaling it on the ground.

Abruptly, four students appeared in front of Shu Himo, all with a sword aiming toward his torso, but each with a different trajectory making the attack impossible to dodge.

But why would Shu Himo dodge it? He swiftly brought out the scythe and rotated on himself, splitting every sword in half, while the four that just attacked him got teleported away by the headmaster. Now only 42 students can still fight.

Impaling four silver rods in the stadium, Shu Himo abruptly jumped onto the next. "The third is done."

Now only two stages are remaining, so the students decided to stay all in a single one, ready to attack together Shu Himo.

Seeing them, Shu Himo did not care and just placed more five silver rods in the empty stage.

The students, teachers, and the headmaster examining the behavior of Shu Himo are all stupefied, what is he doing? Every silver rod that he is inserting in the stages seems at the same distance to each other, almost as if it were a bridge between multiple stages... They all contemplated many times about it but did not manage to find out the reason.

Shu Himo, looking toward the remaining 42 students, Shu Himo abruptly used a stacked [Hopper_x3], appearing as if he had teleported on the other stage, and promptly impaled another silver rod in the ground.

Startled by his speed, all the students suddenly released their magic spells, creating a barrage of fireballs and earth spears.

Each of those spells came at a rapid speed with a deadly aura. However, Shu Himo witnessing the magic spells merely raised his eyebrows in disbelief, 'Can't they use other spells?'

Since the spells all came from a single direction, Shu Himo used a stacked [Hopper_x2] dashing toward the side of the stage evading all the spells and afterward used once again a stacked [Hopper_x2], suddenly appearing at the right of a student.

"Wha-?" Shocked and frightened, the student abruptly turned around but only saw Shu Himo casually inserting another silver rod in the ground. Speechless, she saw Shu Himo vanish once again, reappearing at another side of the stage.

This time waiting for Shu Himo there are four students that immediately slashed toward him, but Shu Himo seeing them had no reaction at all, he just ignored them, impaled another silver rod and vanished once again with a stacked [Hopper_x2].

The headmaster seeing this could not get why Shu Himo is bothering to do all this, already with that speed he could beat all the remaining students! Isn't this just bullying? Is he that angry over not skipping the fight?

Meanwhile, the remaining students seeing that Shu Himo is disregarding everything and just inserting the silver rods immediately made the decision to kick the rods away from the stage.

Seeing their decision Shu Himo just smirked and said, "Too late." Impaling the last two silver rods in the ground, Shu Himo suddenly emanated a killing intent that made everyone feel to be aimed with a thousand blades: it was the same sensation they felt when Aura Azusa released her killing intent.

"Thank you all for participating in my experiment: What will happen if the silver, which is the best conductor, get used as a way to spread the area of attack from the spell 'lightning', which is extremely attracted by conductors?"

Not knowing the term 'conductor' and any theory related they did not know what he meant, but realizing one thing they all felt despair: does this mean that all this fight was just an experiment for him?

Shu Himo, having now placed everything perfectly, jumped high by using a single [Hopper] and pointed his arm toward a silver rod, smiling, he then said: "Lightning."

Hearing the length of his chant everyone's heart trembled, this spell is used at the forming grade!

Suddenly, in front of Shu Himo's arm, a small light appeared rapidly becoming bigger until less than a fraction of second later, when it became a lightning and abruptly charged forward reaching the silver rod.

From the silver rod, the electricity seemed to become violent, scattering toward all the directions, but then it abruptly flew toward all the other silver rods, creating a net where everywhere is covered in electricity.

Now with all the five stages ring covered in a net of lightning, the remaining students all got electrified and passed out, but, fortunately for them since their body is durable enough, the electricity was not sufficient to kill them.

Seeing the situation, the headmaster felt remorseful, why didn't he accept making Shu Himo skip to the B class?

The students from the day before of the B class on the stands that did not consider Shu Himo a problem, now felt the world falling on top of them, why they have such a freak as an opponent?

On the other hand, Shu Himo now have a satisfied smile, 'System, did you see their shock? I will call this combination of silver rods and lightning The Great Shock!'

[What an awful name.]
