Without any bits of care, Desmond pushed and shoved every man and woman in his way to the side. some fell over others berated him with slander for his actions. Desmond paid those people no mind because unlike them he had a real problem on his hand.
The green haired man in purple was trailing behind him. He too gave little care about the others on the street as he rushed towards Desmond. While running with all that he had Desmond tried tripping people and throwing nearby food carts on the ground. In an attempt to cause as much chaos as possible too slow the green haired man down.
What Desmond did had little effect on the green haired man he parkoured over every obstacle and kept on Desmond's tail. Desmond cursed his luck because today wasn't supposed to be like this running for his life in fear from someone he doesn't even know.
As the two ran Desmond took a different route because the crowd of people wasn't helping only slowing him down. Taking a right down a less busy street Desmond instantly felt the green haired man's predatory stare burning a hole through the back of his head.
While running Desmond remembered he was a mage the green haired man scared him so much he forgot something is basic is that. Yet, regardless of that fact, Desmond felt like he shouldn't confront that man.
So, Desmond activated a few basic spells that let him run faster and a jump higher. He instantly picked up speed, but Desmond still felt it wasn't enough to getaway. so, Desmond ran towards one of the three-story tall building next to him and started to climb it.
He used the shape Earth spell to create footholds allowing him to easily climb up the side of the building. Desmond scaled the building with all he had he was not afraid of falling in the least. when Desmond reach the top he thought he was safe, but realized the green haired man gave no fucks about Desmond being three stories up.
The green haired man using no magic jabbed his fingers into the Building made of brick and started to climb it just like Desmond. Seeing the green haired man closing in fast Desmond didn't stay on that building long instead he jumped to the other one.
Even after all of that it still did little is slow the green haired man down. Instead, it looked as though he was picking up speed. Tired of the green haired man's relentless pursuit Desmond slowed down a bit trying to get him within a 10 meter range when he did Desmond attacked.
By compressing the air in the palms of his hands and shaping it Desmond created two wind blades. An intermediate spell he learned inside the city guard library. The two blades we're strong enough to carve up stone.
Desmond hoped they would be good enough to catch the green haired man off guard and kill him, but he was wrong. The green haired man avoided Desmond's attack like an expert.
Desmond seeing the green haired man start to weave through his attack wanted to mess him up. So, he paused and slammed both of his palms on the ground and used another spell he learned earth spike wave. It's similar to Earth Spike surge, but instead of having a bunch of earth spikes shoot out in a circle around the user. It creates a wave of them in one direction.
The spell took a bit more energy then Desmond would like to expend at the moment but he did it anyway. As the spell activated a wave of earth spikes comes shooting towards the green haired man who just finished dodging the wind blades.
Seemingly undisturbed by the dozen of earth spikes forming and about to come at him he crouches down low and performs a sweep kick. Breaking many of the earth's spikes before they even formed.
Witnessing his failure Desmond jumped off the roof while still keeping hold of its side. By keeping hold of the side of the building and using the spell shape earth Desmond was able to turn the brick into sand. slowing his descent as he quickly fell down the building and safely landed at the bottom.
Gaining the lead Desmond was able to disappear from the green haired man's site. Having a moments of breather Desmond hid in an ally.
Then Desmond activating invisibility spell he learned from the books he got from the strange man. The invisibility spell wasn't that great it may be able to turn a person invisible but that was all. He still has to worry about smell, someone touching them, heat, getting wet, and sound.
What the invisibility spell activated Desmond was taking no chances. he created a few illusionary footprints that passed through the alley and kept going.
While hiding in a corner the green haired man quickly made an appearance. Desmond didn't make a sound as he watched the green-haired man run past them.
As Desmond watched the green hand man leave he got up and left in the opposite direction while still invisible. Making his way out of the alley breathe out a sigh of relief thinking the green haired man was gone. Only to find him an inch from his face when he stepped out of the alley.
