Chapter 253: Ways Of The Ki Part 2

” The [Sturdy Mountain Stance], huh? ” Oinor sees Donovan’s stance, realizing he’s using one of the ACA’s kids’ stance to fight him.

Oinor looks a while for the guy behind him, the guy’s name is Onoki Niko, he used that stance as he fights in the preliminaries, using it to deal with two of the AMA’s students.

[ Contestant: Onoki Niko ]

[ Academy: Amalgam Community Academy ]

[ Grade: 1 ]

” It seems Onoki’s move had been plagiarized. ” Oinor chuckles.

” You got me interested, Donovan… ”

” Back then, during our group battle, we only clash abilities with the help of our partners. ”

” But now, our partners are busy dancing with their foes, so I guess I now get the experience of how capable is your [Water Magic], I want to see more than ‘Water Bullets’. ” Oinor says this, but this doesn’t even make Donovan move, he keeps his stance, his stance was posed like an archer steadying his invincible arrow, only this time, the steady things are his fists.

” *exhales* ”

” Attack already. ” Donovan says to Oinor while maintaining his stance, making him confused as to why Donovan wants him to attack so much.

“( He’s not preparing something, isn’t he? )” Oinor asks himself, remembering Donovan is a tactical one, judging from his ‘Water Magic’ which is the weakest damage of all magic, especially on a small scale, including his experience fighting him, recounting him as the more ‘reserved one’.

It made Oinor imagine and assume the reason Donovan used such an open stance was to provoke him, attracting him to get close while the hand that was placed on the back hides and prepares for the hardest of all strikes.

“( Tch, don’t focus on the front hand! )” Oinor tells himself what to do and plunges over Donovan, quickly approaching him in front of his front hand, placing his head on the front while preparing to move aside to aim Donovan’s hand behind.

But…

Before Oinor could move to attack, from Donovan’s front hand, Donovan opens his fingers, releasing his Water Magic, splashing it on Oinor’s face, stunning him, and quickly continues to beat the shit out of him, using some Martial Arts he managed to imitate.

” My ey- ukh! ”

Donovan beats Oinor badly, rapidly punching him, not giving Oinor to unleash his Magic, Martial Arts, or perhaps Mysticism. He just can’t let him at the moment, using the moment to use every move he managed to imitate other than the stance.

“( Let’s start with this… )”

< [Black Shadow Imitate] is in use. >

< Black Shadow Imitate, Fist of Thousand Waves >

< Single Opponent Damage 65%, Multiple Opponent Damage 35% >

“( Continued with this. )”

< Black Shadow Imitate, Hard Spin Hurricane >

< Single Opponent Damage 55%, Multiple Opponent Damage 45% >

“( And finally. )”

< Black Shadow Imitate, Fury’s Impact >

< Single Opponent Damage 80%, User’s movement stun 15 sec. >

Donovan hits Oinor hard with it, the scene makes all eyes look at him, including Agniz who gasps at seeing such an occurrence.

Despite all eyes aimed at him, Donovan sees the System appearing on him, showing him something he’s been aiming to unlock.

“( Still some more… )”

< Talent: >*

“( I need more, I- )” Donovan stops his thought, suddenly seeing two remaining Oniro Brothers, already placed their hands on his neck, filled with Ki whose purpose is to harm Donovan.

” Who do you think you are, huh!? Doing that to my brother!? ” Orion Oniro asks him.

” How dare you harm him!? What’s wrong with you!? ” Onori Oniro threatens as the two begin to release their Fire Mysticism over Donovan, but then.

” Enough! ” Agniz appears before them, pressuring the three as she handles their quarrel.

” But principal, he’s- ”

” Your brother’s fine! ” Agniz tells Orion, pointing at the Oinor who comes back up from his damage.

As she says that, she looks to Donovan, asking, ” It seems you still can’t utilize it on giving explosive damage, didn’t you? ”

” Your Martial Techniques, I see you copied some of my students and added it to your arsenal, isn’t that right, Donovan Richter-Grimshaw? ” Agniz asks as Donovan just nods about it, not commenting any further.

” If my moves are that perfect then I don’t need to combo it with another move to give him such damage. ”

” These are still new to me, so I don’t expect it to give great damage to even stun the opponent for minutes. ” Donovan just explains to Agniz which makes her sigh and tells Donovan to take a seat while the others continue their training.

” He’s done it again… ” Carol sees it from afar while her sparring opponent also stops the battle with her and sees Donovan kicked out from the training session for what he just did.

” I already knew something was different from him. ”

[ Contestant: Kinako Niko ]

[ Academy: Amalgam Community Academy ]

[ Grade: 2 ]

” Especially when he used my [Fury’s Impact] technique, I can see it. ” Kinako says it, making Carol look at her with confusion.

” I know you’re confused, but what I’m stating is… ”

” Your friend Donovan there just made my technique more damaging even without enhancing it with Ki or Mana abilities, only by using the basic release of his Ki. ”

” Perhaps, it happened because of his ‘fiery nature’, I realized that one had ambition, he- ”

” More like jealousy… ” Carol interrupts, seeing Donovan and then sees Carlos who managed to subdue three ACA Students with his Ki.

” Carlos’ battle was right in front of Donovan’s position and as usual, Donovan strives his best to not live under Carlos’ shadow. ”

” Yet again, he reveals his true competitive colors, something that even made me frightened of how hideously ambitious he is. ” Carol says it while remembering what Donovan did during the Preliminaries. During the Battle Royale, Donovan won by not only using his Water Magic but also planning and planting some traps on the environment nearby, giving him great victory against opponents without even releasing great stamina.

” I can still never thought he would use such tactics… ”

” To think he had to resort to such things is a great insult to Magic Users in general, we don’t do that. ” Carol explains as Kinako listens to it.

” You’re right, it is an insult. ”

” For resorting to such tactics only shows how one is not confident in what they cultivate. ”

” Thus, you might say he’s a mockery to the very use of Martial Arts he imitated. ” Kinako tells Carol as the two continue while Donovan is placed on the watcher’s seat, approached by Agniz.

” I can see why Mr. Duncan adored you. ” Agniz approached Donovan.

” You had some talent for not just imitating one’s Martial Art, but also being able to innovate it. ” Agniz praised him.

” The truth is, I only think and reimagined the move should’ve been used like that. ”

” After all, it enables me to beat the hell of Oinor, right? ” Donovan asks Agniz as she sighs, telling Donovan.

” It seems you need to be privately tutored on how you should approach and use the Martial Arts you imitate.

” Meet me in this Hall after training’s over. ” Agniz tells Donovan he should take some rest and leave early, while others continue.
