Chapter 289 The Final Duel: Commotion
Arena,
The loud thunderous voice reached everyone. The crowd shuddered. Fortunately, people here are not regular humans but wizards.
If it were regular humans, they would be bleeding to death from the roaring voice alone. The sudden commotion immediately caused panic in the crowd.
Some people started to flee.
The media houses were stunned. The public use of magic is strictly banned by the government. But here high ranking wizard is causing trouble
The reporters’ eyes popped out. They turned their gadgets towards the sky. Then everyone saw the clear appearance of a wizard on the big screen.
“Rogue Wizard!”
The same thought appeared in everyone’s mind.
“Who is this?”
“A high-ranking wizard appeared all of a sudden”
Inside the viewing room, the management people were panicking. Only Chairman Benjamin has a dazed expression on his face.
Because he recognized the infiltrator. The next moment, he became like a deflated balloon and collapsed back into his seat.
Chairman Benjamin’s behavior didn’t go unnoticed by the headmaster and class teacher. Both of them realized the chairman knew something.
“Chairman, are you alright? Eric Wallace moved to support him.
Benjamin’s assistant also arrived to support him. The headmaster Chester Nixon revealed a complex expression on his face. He realized the intruder is a high-ranking wizard. Perhaps level 5 or above.
Considering the timing of the intrusion, his brain quickly found the answer. Brent Dale has something to do with the person in the sky. There is a possibility that he is a level-5 wizard.
Chester’s face changes drastically the next moment. Who could stop the rage of a level-5 wizard? Because everyone here is low and medium-level wizards.
His back was drenched in sweat after realizing this. No wonder the chairman slumped back into his seat. Then he quickly thought of a solution.
To deal with the level-5 wizard, they need the help of another level-5 wizard. Right now, only wizards from the police force can help them.
But before he could do anything. He heard another scream from above.
…
(From MC’s perspective)
A couple of seconds ago,
Rumble!
The silver barrier started to shake due to pressure.
[Ding! Warning! Warning! Warning!]
Hearing system’s warning in mind. A cold glint flashed in my eyes. “Another enemy,” I grumbled.
Then I saw the evil grin on Brent Dale’s face. Seeing that I realized something. But the next second, my lips curved into a gentle arc.
“Gravity Field,” I said, pointing my finger at Brent Dale’s broken body.
No one noticed the changes in the duel stage. Because everyone’s focus is high on the sky. Even the media reporters failed to broadcast the scene.
A wisp of gravity magic is applied to Brent Dale who is holding a wide grin on his face. When the terrific pressure descended his expression solidified.
Pfff
The next moment he spits out more blood in disbelief. His internal organs were damaged under pressure.
Brent Dale’s mana core is slightly cracked. As a result, his awakening process is hindered midway. The cruel fact caused a terrible blow to Brent Dale.
He wasn’t able to digest the failure. His mind went blank and fainted on the ground the next second.
“How dare you?” Brent Dale’s protector let out a furious roar.
Rumble!
The silver barrier broke into several pieces the next second.
“Harumph!”
At the same time, John Meyer gave a cold snort before locking the other person.
Feeling the sudden imprisonment. The protector widened his eyes in surprise. He realized there is another existence here on the same level as him.
But upon seeing his young master’s broken body. He released his mana breath in anger. Which further affected the whole arena.
Those who were close to the level-5 wizard were affected severely. The arena looked bloodied.
A few of the reporters lost the courage to broadcast anymore. Some of them abandoned their gadgets and began to flee for life.
Swish!
People from powerful families’ started to flee with help of their strong protectors.
“Father”
“Mother”
“Brian”
I recalled my family members. They must be present inside the arena. “Brent Dale,” I gnashed my teeth in anger.
Should I kill him? A thought arose in my heart. He fainted. It’s a good opportunity to remove the nuisance once and for all.
No! If I do that the guy above will go berserk. Who knows this might lead to a blood bath. I have confidence in Elder John.
But that doesn’t mean that he can protect everyone from the aftermath. After giving a cold look at Brent Dale, I disappeared from the spot and began to look for my family.
John Meyer’s expression turned cold. At first, he thought of simply blocking the other party. But who would have thought this guy would release his mana breath?
If he starts to fight in this location, then the situation will become even worse. Then without waiting further. He grabbed the protector and disappeared from the spot.
John Meyer is an existence close to the level-6 wizard. There is rarely any opponent in the same rank as him. So easily overpowered the protector to drag him away.
A few minutes later,
I found my parents standing close to my classmates. Seeing that I sighed in relief. But after seeing their panic-stricken faces. I don’t know what to say.
“Vincent!”
“My son, are you alright?
Father Brad and Mother Lila immediately walked up to their son to check on him.
Brian Carey blurted out in surprise, “What are you doing here?”
“What about your opponent?”
Brian Carey didn’t inquire about his brother’s health. Rather he is worried about the opponent. He knows his brother Vincent is strong but the duel is not over yet.
I raised my eyebrows after hearing my brother’s words.
At the same time, Father Brad and Mother Lila sighed in relief.
But after hearing Brian’s words. Mother Lila hurriedly said, “Son, it’s risky to stay here. Let’s go home.”
Father Brad Carey also echoed the same opinion.
Hearing that I became speechless. I feel home is not a good place to stay right now. Then feeling their concerns, I answered, “Don’t worry, Elder John is here.”
“What?” b𝚍𝚘𝚟l.nt
“Elder John,” Brian Carey uttered in surprise. He heard about this powerful elder from his parents. To think that he came to watch his younger brother duel.
He couldn’t help but suck a cold breath of air.
With level-5 wizard’s protection. They can walk sideways here.
Father Brad and Mother Lila calmed down the uneasiness in their hearts. Brad Carey knows how powerful that person is. With him here they can be at ease.
On the other hand, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. I decided to lead my parents toward my class. A rank building might be the safest place right now.
Inside the viewing room,
Chairman Benjamin recollected his thoughts. And instructed the security guard to safely evacuate the people.
Fortunately, there is no sign of that wizard in the sky.
This all happened within a few minutes.
Still, the commotion didn’t die down. Seeing that Benjamin feels dejected. The worst thing happened as they had imagined previously.
But it happened before the end of the duel.
“What happened to the contenders?” he blurted out all of a sudden.
His words immediately awaken the people near him. Chester Nixon sees that the big screen is showing the image of clouds.
Seeing that he twitched. “This school is insane,” He said in his heart.
“I’m going out to check,” saying that, class teacher Eric left the room.
…
The Quinn family,
Joe Quinn and the old butler were watching the duel. Right now, they have an expression of disbelief.
“Who’s that level-5 existence?” Joe Quinn mumbled under his breath.
The butler pondered deeply before answering, “Boss, I think that high-ranking wizard is related to that kid Brent Dale.”
Brent Dale? A look of realization dawned upon him. Then next second he asked, “So it is, then why did he interfere in the ongoing duel?”
This? The veteran butler became hesitant for a moment. He is well aware of the prestige of big-mage families. The Quinn family is big but not comparable to the Dale family.
He feels that the level-5 wizard must be Brent Dale’s protector. But he didn’t comment on it openly in front of his boss.
Dale’s family has sent a level-5 wizard to protect Brent Dale. So what is the real strength of the Dale family?
On top of it, young master Danny said that Brent Dale’s organization is also powerful.
Looking at the situation right now, that level-5 wizard must have lost control. Brent Dale’s situation seems to be worse than his young master’s.
Earlier, both he and his boss saw the bloodied body of Brent Dale. They felt that their young master is way more fortunate than Brent Dale.
On the other hand, Joe Quinn found something amiss. The way the level-5 wizard acted is like he wants to save Brent Dale. Then suddenly he realized the cruel fact.
His butler’s silence also confirmed his guess. “No wonder my son is an ardent follower of him,” He said in his heart. At the same time, he recalled the warning issued by the Yellow River Academy.
He is looking forward to seeing how the Dale family is going to handle the threat.
