The Mysterious Black Magician - Chapter 328

“Hehe, that’s what you get for being so persistent,” Kiko muttered after Brai’s figure disappeared in the myriad of fireballs.

Meanwhile, it seemed as though a smaller version of the sun descended on the stage. Everyone who was looking at it could not help feeling worried.

Is the barrier able to protect them? Such thoughts linger in their minds. Those fireballs looked so intimidating. As though it would blow up the whole city just looking at it.

Out of a sudden, a blinding burst of light erupted.

But a second later, the victory grin on Kiko’s face froze on the spot.

The stage went back to normal. The myriad of fireballs vanished on stage. As though they were just illusions from the start.

On stage, there was only the shocked Kiko. And Brai, who is now in a set of shiny silver armor. That armor, everyone believed, was enchanted as well.

But how did a set of armor take care of those fireballs? None of them could explain, but they guess Brai did something.

A second later, a drop of water fell. Then it was followed by another. Though, it is weird that the rain only happened on the stage.

“I see. So, it’s elemental armor,” Yman muttered.

“Yeah,” Almina agreed to him.

The others looked at them as they began discussing it. In this Academy, only a few students had possession of it. Since Brai showed him, he’s one of those few now.

It wasn’t easy to own such equipment. Besides the cost, it was a super rare piece of equipment. The items for crafting it were hard to gather by normal means.

Regardless, Yman had no idea how the rain generated and how Brai vanished all the fireballs.

Almina, too, could not explain it. They guessed that Brai used his enchantment ability along with his elemental armor.

Nonetheless, the glow on Brai’s armor slowly fades away. It also means he could not use the skill he used a while ago.

He needed to wait another minute to use it again.

From the air, Kiko came rushing towards Brai. “Bastard!” He gave up the long-range attacks and went for the melee. A big flat sword materialized in his hand. Kiko, who was wielding it in both hands, brandished the sword on Brai.

“Earth-Shattering!” He shouted.

The last time Yman witnessed it, it was already strong. But now, it is a lot stronger. Spider-web cracks appeared beneath Brai, who was receiving Kiko’s attack.

Another second, the cracks became bigger until the debris flew away, revealing a broken stage.

“Receiving that attack is just too much, isn’t it?” Almina asked with a frown.

Yman nodded while revealing a bitter smile. “Yes, of course. But I think Brai wanted to parry it. Just that, it went wrong. Maybe Brai did not expect the power of Kiko’s attack.” He said his thoughts to reply to Almina.

Also that Earth-Shattering attack of Kiko generated an invisible force. Yman did not mention it. However, he believed that it was the reason that Brai was now flying away like a bowling ball after receiving Kiko’s Earth-Shattering attack.

Almina agreed to Yman’s deduction.

There was a noticeable decrease in Brai’s health bar that was in the large monitor.

If not because of his armor, the damage might be a bit higher. Still, it wasn’t able to prevent the invisible force that knocked him away.

After a slight cough, Brai immediately stood up and rushed to attack Kiko.

The two exchanges strike in the middle of the broken stage. They weren’t ordinary strikes, they were strong and heavy strikes.

Kiko had the upper hand in the strength category, but Brai’s talent in wielding his katana made up for it.

He was able to deal minor cuts to Kiko. Likewise, Kiko also deals minor damages to him.

Brai’s armor is strong against fire element attacks and physical attacks. So it was good armor to fight Kiko, who was using the fire element and physical attacks.

However, the battle took a big turn when Kiko suddenly used wind and water elements to attack Brai.

Brai got flustered for a second. Probably not expect it. He should have expected that Kiko also had the affinity of multiple elements like him.

Since Kiko was only using Fire and Physical attacks this whole time, it might have been lost in his mind that Kiko could also manifest the other elements.

Taken by surprise, Brai had once again received a good amount of damage. Though, it wasn’t enough to knock him unconscious.

Kiko, who was grinning the whole time, was waiting for Brai in the middle of the stage. He frowned when he noticed Brai canceled his elemental armor.

He wondered if Brai wanted to give up. Although it was good, there was dissatisfaction in Kiko’s mind. He wanted to make Brai suffer a little bit more for making a mess in him. He was wounded all over. And his figure looks unsightly.

But second later, the grin on his mouth resurfaced again when Brai activated his advanced resonance.

However, wasn’t it idiotic? That armor was a big help for defending against Kiko’s deadly attack. Most of the onlookers thought so. Even some of the VIPs and students thought the same.

Kiko was thinking the same.

“I see. Since that is what you want, then suit yourself!” He shouted to Brai. Regardless, Kiko believed he would never lose.

At the moment, Brai was now wearing a red loose robe. It was also the costume of his System Deity. His System Deity was a samurai cat. So currently, there were whiskers on Brai’s face, a cat tail behind him, and cat ears on his head. For some reason, he looked like a beastman in his current form.

A samurai Catman.

Everyone misinterpreted Brai’s decision. He gave up the elemental armor as he was planning to go all out on offense.

Sensing the immeasurable increase in Brai’s power, Kiko flicked his tongue. Tsk!

To match up with Brai, he activated his advanced resonance as well.

A cool-looking armor suddenly wrapped around Kiko’s body. On top of it, there was a pair of wings. And there was a blazing fire on his reddish, scaly tail.

“A-a salamander…”

Yman muttered.

Around him, the other female students were already shouting Kiko’s name. Kesha also cheered. Well, most of their party members already knew that Kesha had a positive feeling towards Kiko. So, they could only silence and enjoy the match.

Only Almina was unaware of it. Regardless, her focus was on the current match. Whoever among Brai and Kiko win, there was a high chance that she would face one of them.

These two were both strong. No need to argue about it. As expected of someone from the elite class they are on another level.

So anyone in the elite class could be the winner of this competition. Everyone agreed to it after witnessing Kiko and Brai’s performance.

There was no way for the other class to defeat the elites. They were at a disadvantage already in terms of equipment. The elite’s equipment was truly expensive and powerful. Aside from it, they were capable of advanced resonance.

So even if some of them still remember that Yman had defeated one of the elites, they still believe that Yman won’t survive in this competition. Especially that each of the elites wields different kinds of special powers.

Comparing Jugo from others, Jugo seemed to be lacking in many aspects.

Most of the onlookers started to compare Jugo to the other elites. It looks like Jugo was the weakest among them.

If Jugo was an elite, then that makes the others as super elite.

Regardless, the match between Kiko and Brai was yet to end.
