Chapter 41: Festival (2)

I used wind and lightning magic to surround by body, I got close and cut his hand in half.

-You could have cut his whole arm off, why did you just cut the hand?!- Dabria scolded

-It'll end too quickly, Ace needs to get his revenge, and this bastard to too angry to fight probably, besides Dream eater can cut all his armor and spells, I'll play with him a little-

He then healed himself and tried to go for quick spells which I also cut down, I blasted an explosive fireball to his face and blue him away, his mana orb and staff got out of his hands, I cut them both in half and charged at him

"Are you toying with me?" He snarled

"Well I need to have some fun as my cat beat your stupid bear"

"You filthy commoner!" He then took out a sword from his spatial ring to try and cut me down

-Ooh an S-rank greatsword, I love looting rich people-

"Professor White, Professor Blue, did you find out what enchantment or runes are on that sword?" Anthony Magus asked the 2 professors

"No, I sense no runes" Professor Blue replied

"I don't sense any enchantment either" Professor White answered

"Any words from Professor Steel?"

"All he said is that, the sword is similar to that of Artia Magus" Professor White replied

Anthony Magus then realized it too

"This room is soundproof right?" he asked

"Yes sir, I used the hush spell and put extra runes in this rune for extra precaution" Professor Blue answered

"Well the sword of Artia Magus is safely guarded by the royals as it is the only possession he has left behind, its name is Sunrise, his phoenix bond even protected that sword till the end of his life"

"I know a sword that belonged to Artia is precious, but why is it similar?" Professor White asked

"The only difference is that, Sunrise is curved and the blade is red, not a lot of people know about it, it also have no known enchantment nor runes" Anthony Magus replied "Not just that, no one have can wield it except him and his bond, I have tried to hold it myself, but it was so heavy that I couldn't even pick it up and the longer I hold it, the faster mana got sucked out of me"

"Have you tried using a strong person with no mana?"

"We've tried but they couldn't lift it either, and instead on sucking mana, the holder got his life force sucked out and got unknown diseases when he held it, the disease went away after he released the sword, but the life force could not be returned" Anthony Magus shook his head in distaste "We also exhausted a mage out of their mana to see if the outcome is different, same, Professor Steel also tried but to no avail"

"Is there any note that Anthony Magus left behind that could be of clue?" Professor Blue Asked

"He did, he said a person similar to him will be able to imprint it and turn the blade into an equipment of his choice" Anthony Magus answered "We couldn't even lift the sword up, it's just laying on a floor of a secured room in an undisclosed location"

"Do you plan on getting Perseus to try it?"

"I will, I'm royalty after all, they trust me, we can just use this as an apology for Perseus since he have to take this fight in the first place despite him already proving his worth during his fight with Professor Steel, he also seems the type to keep a secret safe, he won't reveal the sword to the public"

Meanwhile Albert is looking at Perseus' sword in shock while spectating the fight, Aenon then arrived late

-Sorry Albert, I'm finally done with my business, why do you look so shocked?- Aenon asked as he sit next to Albert

-That's Plotinum, isn't it Helena?- Albert asked

-It is, I'm shocked that he found one so quick- She replied

-So that's the metal that we plan on getting- Aenon chuckled -It's definitely good, it's sword that can kill me if left in the wrong hands-

-Don't worry about it, only reincarnates can wield at, and this world already got the maximum amount, it's our Albert and Perseus, he might seem devilish sometimes, but I don't think he'll cut us down- Helena replied

-I just have to teach him and change his ways- Albert replied -Everyone deserves a second chance-

"Despite being at the mid purple core, you suck dude"

"What the hell is that sword?!" He yelled as he kept slashing me

I kept avoiding it to not damage it since I want that sword for Albert, I need to get that guy's full trust with a gift

Ace was fairing well against the bear, he used his small body and nimble movements to dodge all the bears attack while using wind blades to cut him down little by little.

-Bite his neck off- Siege screamed in my head

Ace then got his fangs clad with lightning magic and bit down on the bear's neck, the bear howled in pain. He then supercharged his fangs even more to electrocute the bear. The bear tried to shake him off, but ace held on to his neck. It managed to shook Ace off.

-Aim for his eyes- Damon advised

Ace jump to the air and shot wind blades to the bear's eyes, its eyes got slashed and bled, it howled even louder

-They're all getting super violent thoughts, must be from you- Dabria commented

-I agree, in his memories, he thought of many ways on how to kill a person- Diana agreed

-I want to kill him, but I wouldn't be allowed to, so finish the fight please, i don't want to stare at that thing anymore- Ace then walked back to the group as he left the stage

The noble bastard is getting tired due to his low stamina, he then just recklessly fired out spells

-It's all missing, maybe I am a true protagonist after all-

-Just finish it already!- Dabria shouted

"This brings back memories, doesn't it? " I said as I unleashed flames of purgatory again, blue flames engulfed the stage. With his armor and guards up, he held on this time.

"Time to end this, Solar Flare" I then charged at him with full power, he tried to block it with his sword but I was faster, I punched him with full force this time and he hit the other side of the arena and cracked the wall, he no longer had any consciousness and it looked like he hit the wall in a bad position, because his arms was twisted

-Should've knocked a couple more teeth out-
