Elemental Race: 2nd Level (Part 3)

Screams, the noises of different enchantments, and loud footsteps blended to the entirety of the race. The next obstacle, Aqua, attacked with an army of ghosts. Faustina could barely scavenge her way forward without using magic; however, for some reason, it worked—escaping aqua using a wooden plank from the sides made her surf her way passing Aqua, the water monster. And for the first time, Faustina was able to exit the spectrum of 'the last examinee trailing behind'. 

It was cruel, but it wasn't just her who exited using this way. As she ran, Chastity, the girl from earlier, went with her and told her that her mana was depleting, so she couldn't use magic either. 

"Nice job!" Chastity said with a thumbs up.

The two of them passed Aqua using the same technique. With only Lumos to ward off the ghosts, they were able to run at a steady pace.
