Chapter 811 - Battle Inside The Manor
Chapter 811
(Unedited)
…
When the beautiful woman takes a step forward the expression of Emil Vanatia turned serious. In fact, he did not want to hurt the woman as their target is to eliminate the man that the two women are following.
However, he did not expect that the woman would take a step forward and wanted to fight against his disciple.
"Why hide behind a woman? Are you that afraid to face your own sins against the Great White Tower of Dugal that you wanted to rely on a woman?" Emil Vanatia said trying to provoke Shin Jiao.
But before he could say anything else, Rakshid Hamas whose target is Shin Jiao did not bother with the woman. With a dash to the side, he suddenly threw the fireball in his hand towards Shin Jiao trying to bypass Nariz Gumal who is standing in front of him.
She squinted her eyes then suddenly pulls out a semi-automatic handgun from the holster inside her cloak.
Without hesitation, she has already aimed at Rakshid Hamas' body.
Bang! Boom!
Two sounds reverberated through the air as the fireball hits Shin Jiao and the gun in Nariz Gumal spews its bullet.
Arrgghh!!!
A loud shout of pain echoed through the air as a figure suddenly fell down on the ground clutching his shoulder.
Rakshid Hamas could be seen crawling on the ground while clutching his bloody shoulder. A big hole could be seen with red blood flowing all over the place. That's right; the blood of the people who grew up in this place is red. This is because the people in this world have not reached the nascent realm or have not been transformed by the deities controlling the immortal land. Hence, they are still mortals.
This scene dumbfounded everyone and looks at Nariz Gumal with fear in their eyes. Emil Vanatia was also shocked and did not expect that the woman would be carrying a very powerful magic item. He is now suspecting that the woman is actually a mage that is trying to hide her powers.
The magical item she just used has mana traces so this means that she is able to wield mana, hence she is a mage. As the technology in this world is still primitive, they are not able to discover a way to hold mana. Hence all of the magical items and weapons needed their users to inject their mana to enable its ability.
For this reason, the people in the hall now thought that the beautiful woman is actually a mage.
But Emil Vanatia is not worried. With the fireball that Rakshid Hamas has just thrown, he knew that without a shield that Master Shin is surely finished.
Adool Hamas ran to his son and immediately fished out a healing potion and pour a part of it into Rakshid's wound and then help his son drink the rest.
He glared at the woman in anger as he wanted to tear her apart. How she hurt his precious son, he wanted to have his revenge now.
With anger in his eyes, he suddenly removes the magical item in his son's hand and puts it on. Then with a wave of his hand, he suddenly conjures a fireball spell with the same intensity that could only be cast by a High Mage.
As a mage in the lower realms, it consumed a bit of his strength, and is unable to control the fireball but he still wanted to avenge his son.
No one was able to stop him as everything is in chaos now. Plus the attention of everyone is on the beautiful woman.
"No! Stop!" Emil Vanatia shouted, but it was already too late.
The large fireball the size of two human heads flew towards Nariz Gumal.
No one expected this and lament on the woman's luck. Even though she is powerful, yet that fireball is equal to the strength of a High Mage, hence they are sure that she would be doomed.
Boom!
Bang!
Nariz Gumal did not hesitate to take another shot, this time aiming at the middle-aged man squatting on the ground beside his son while glaring at her.
When she shot Rakshid Hamas, her aim was a bit off. She wanted to shot his head but instead hit his shoulder, so she wanted to try again.
This time, she has already got a gist of the recoil factor of the handgun and aimed at the middle-aged man's chest. It was a far bigger target which she knew she would not miss.
And before everyone's eyes, they saw the middle-aged man falling to the ground lifeless with a big hole on his chest piercing his heart.
Though they did not have a big grudge, he tried to kill her, so he should not blame her for killing him instead.
Everyone is now taken aback, but what truly baffled everyone are the two balls of fire which are glowing and unmoving.
"This… How could this be?" Emil Vanatia muttered as he takes a step back.
This is because he now noticed that the people inside that glowing fireball are unhurt and are protected by a powerful barrier that even with the use of the magical item was not affected at all.
The shock in the faces of the mages and the normal people in the area are noticeable. They gawk at the scene in front of them, especially those that know how troublesome the magical artifact that was used.
But it seems that it was of no use as the person they are targeting is still able to use magic.
Shin Jiao just showed a faint smile on his face. With a wave of his hand, the fire covering them was suddenly dispersed.
"Cheap tricks won't work on us…" he said as he looks at Rakshid Hamas who is on the ground while tears are on his face upon knowing that his father just died.
Shin Jiao raised his hand and using his psychokinesis he lifted Rakshid Hamas from the ground. The young man was too scared that he forgot his anger and just looks at Shin Jiao with fear in his eyes.
"You've attacked me indiscriminately… it seems that only your death could stop this grudge." Shin Jiao said as he puts his hand behind him then shifted his gaze to the High Mages in front of him.
Crack!
The sound of bone breaking echoed through the hall sending shivers running down the spine of the people. They did not know how but they saw the neck of the young man in the air suddenly being twisted by an invisible force.
Thud!
The body of Rakshid Hamas fells to the ground with his face still showing indignation and fear.
Everyone is now afraid while looking at the man in the middle of the hall. Even the High Mages showed fear in their eyes.
Two people died just like that without putting up a fight. Though they were the ones who first attacked their opponent, they are unable to hurt them and instead died without a fight.
"So… who's next?" Shin Jiao said nonchalantly as he stood straight with both his hands clasped behind his back.
No one said a word, and the expression of the High Mages from the Great White Tower of Dugal turned ugly. They knew that they have encountered a challenging situation.
However, as High Mages, they have their pride. How could they just stand there and do nothing? Everyone looks at each other and with a nod, they seem to arrive in a tacit understanding to fight back.
Leading the group is Emil Vanatia who is standing in front of them.
"Since you wanted to resist, then don't blame us for being impolite." He said with a grim look on his face.
Everyone now knew that things have just escalated, so the people inside the hall immediately ran outside of the manor to escape the battle which would surely turn the manor into ruins.
The other mages from other towers did not want to be embroiled in this mess, so they too ran outside.
However, there are few mages wearing hooded cloaks who did not escape but instead decided to watch the battle that is about to start.
The man and his three companions have attracted them. If those four survive the battle, then they would extend their hand to help them. Having a powerful additional force in their faction would be an advantage for them.
Meanwhile, Emil Vanatia and the other High Mages have already begun conjuring their spells and different elements began gathering in the air turning the hall into a chaotic mess.
Meanwhile, Nariz Gumal has already walked behind Shin Jiao.
"Master Shin, should we make our move now?" Im Jae asked while looking at the magical elements gathering with fear in her eyes.
As a native in this land, she knew how powerful mages are and did not want to face those spells head one.
"Big sister... Just put your trust in big brother… those people will not be able to hurt us." Im Ao said with a confident expression.
Then before their eyes, several elemental spells were released hurtling towards them.
