Chapter 283: Void Step During Night-Time

283 Void Step During Night-Timhey went inside the graveyard using the hole Arthur created in the barrier. Now, someone had to launch a powerful spell as a surprise attack, and that person could not be Seth!

Seth had to fight against the other rank 2 mage, which means he could not waste his energy before the fight. So, out of everyone present, Arthur had to be the person to do that.

"All right. Everyone, my attack will destroy the tunnels and rooms beneath us, so prepare to fend against lots of students who will march toward us." Arthur said to the other mages who were nearby.

The spell Arthur cast was a meteor, infused with his first essence. Fire! It took some time for him to fully cast it. A tier 11 spell was no joke!

Magical circles kept appearing in front of Arthur's hand, stopping only after eleven circles were formed. These circles had strange symbols, runes, which gathered the mana from the atmosphere, turning into fuel to ignite the meteor!

All these circles merged, forming a big circle which appeared high in the sky, covering more area than the barrier which surrounded the graveyard.

The barrier from the school was like a dome, protecting the school from attacks which came from the top. Arthur and everyone else were already inside the barrier, and with his dragon eyes, Arthur saw the highest point the barrier covered.

"I cannot cast the meteor from that high because of the barrier, but it will work anyway."

A few students from the Decaying Skull noticed the strange circle above their heads, as not that high in the sky.

"What is that?" One student said.

They did not have a good feeling about it, but everything happened so fast it did not give them any time to react. When the circle appeared in the sky, a huge meteor followed right after, coming down toward the graveyard at tremendous speed.

"A-A-"

These students were so shocked they could not even talk, and then the meteor hit them. The impact was so great that the tombs, tunnels and the ground itself were destroyed. The school was no more!

A lot of dark mages died just from that attack alone, but the rank 2 mage had sensed the moment the meteor formed, so he cast a barrier to protect them, reducing the casualties by a lot.

But that was not the important part. Now that the school was extinguished, all the traps they had set up were useless, and all the dark mages had to come out from those tunnels to fight them.

Going inside the school would make Arthur at a disadvantage, but fighting outside? It was everything he wished for. Also, the attack harmed the core of the school's barrier, shutting it down completely.

From the broken parts, a muddled age man with a scar on his right eye appeared. He opened up a tunnel on those wrecks, allowing the rest of the dark mages to leave the destroyed tunnels, appearing on the surface once again.

It was the rank 2 mage from the school.

"Dark mages, attack! Kill all of them! Don't worry about their leader, as I will take care of him!"

Seth and that mage exchanged glances and then left the battlefield to fight in a nearby area to not harm their own armies. Then, a bloodbath began!

Mages which ranged from the ninth circle to the rank 1 marched against each other, killing without mercy. Arthur was one of those mages, and he went all out!

He did not use his transformations, but wielded the sword Merethyl gave him, attacking those mages using a melee weapon. They weren't particularly good in melee combat, so when Arthur dashed toward them with a speed which far surpassed what their eyes could see, it was game over.

A rank 1 mage saw a shadow running toward him, so he prepared a spell to counter attack it, as he knew it was an enemy, but then the shadow which was still somewhat far appeared right in front of him.

"What?"

The dark mage saw a youth wielding a massive sword using only one arm, smirking at him like a mad beast. A slash, fast and clean, cutting the dark mage in half, sending blood and guts to all the dark mages near it, increasing the fear in their hearts.

Arthur did not stop there, and in fact increased his speed! He channeled his lightning essence, creating thunder all around his body, like an armor. These thunders increasing his speed as they also covered his feet!

He was not running at the speed of the light, as that was too fast for him, but it increased his speed by a huge margin, coupled with his high agility. There was no way these mages could hit him.

Before some of these mages saw a shadow from a distance, which gave them enough time to prepare. Now? Arthur was so fast he simply appeared in front of them and ended their lives with a sword slash!

"Can I merge my essences in my sword attacks? Let's see!" Arthur thought.

He focused his lightning essence on the sword and then slashed it horizontally. Arthur was not sure it would work, but it did! The lightning took the form of a blade slash, flying horizontally toward the dark mage army.

It had so much power that even after cutting the first row of dark mages in half; it did not stop, going deeper and deeper toward the enemy army!

"What is that?"

Some mages who were still behind saw that, and wanted to run away, but it was too late! The lightning slash caught up to them, cutting them in half, just like all the rest.

One attack from Arthur changed the course of battle, killing most of the ninth and tenth circle mages, and also a few of the Official Mage as well.

At first, the One Hundred Thunder Academy had fewer men than the opposite side, but now? They far surpassed it, as the dark mages were only corpses!

Everyone on that battlefield shared one thing: fear! Those mages who weren't happy about Arthur getting the position of vice-president now wished to be far away from him and question none of his orders. He was like a demon who came to rule all of them!

After that, Arthur did not even have to fight anymore, as the remaining mages were dealt by the others from the One Hundred Thunder Academy.

"We won!"

They yelled, but Arthur knew that was not the end. The person they had to kill no matter what was the rank 2 mage, or else all of them would be dead.

Arthur looked at his own army, which had a few casualties only, and said, "I will go to help Seth if he needs to. Try to dig those wrecks and find their treasure room."

"Understood!"

All of them said in unison, like when speaking to a respected general from the army. Arthur could not understand their sudden shift, but did not ask further questions, leaving the area to look for Seth.

A little farther away from the graveyard, Seth was fighting against the rank 2 mage from the Decaying Skull. He believed the fight would not be that hard, but it turned out that the middle-aged mage had a few tricks on his sleeve, catching Seth off-guard.

"Hahaha, are you tired already, Seth? Don't worry, my dark mages are wiping the floor with your students as we speak, and now I will deal with you too!" He said.

Arthur was hidden behind a bush, seeing the two mages fight up in the sky. He was using all the stealth skills he had, trying to avoid being detected by them, and it worked, at least for now.

"Seth is losing. What can I do to help? I can't possibly go up against a rank 2 mage, or can I?"

His brain was working at his maximum, trying to see an opportunity to strike. Arthur was confident in surviving one attack from a rank 2 mage, as his teleport would prove useful in such a situation, but how could he hurt them?

The tier 11 spells he could cast would not even pass through the natural barrier of a rank 2 mage, and even though his dragon skills had a similar power, they weren't that strong, as he still needed to get stronger.

While he thought of that, Seth and the middle-aged man were fighting against each other with everything they had. Seth cast multiple spells of the lightning element, while his adversary focused on the shadow element, using hidden and unpredictable attacks.

"That is it! My Void Step! But it is dark now... Old Nefion warned me about this."

There was no time to wait. Arthur saw the opportunity after Seth trapped the dark mage with a lightning cage. That was the chance Arthur needed to kill the rank 2 mage before it was too late.

He took out the dark sword from his magical pouch, and when he touched it, the Monlog Giant bloodline resonated with it, increasing its power to a tremendous degree, yet Arthur was still him, not turning into a frenzied beast.

Then, he activated his Void Step, entering a different realm which he still could not comprehend. He knew Nefion warned him, but there was no other option!
