Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

<Emery, where are you?>

After some time passed, the serpent half-blood girl once again sent a message. However, not only did the much-expected acolyte not seem to be coming, there was not even a reply from the other party.

She, along with the other acolytes, had been fighting a difficult battle against the so-called perfected Nightwalkers. In the beginning, there were forty of them, but now, in the span of less than ten minutes, half of them had fallen.

The ironic thing about the entire situation was that although they had managed to kill ten of the enemies, they couldn't rejoice at that fact as all ten were of their own. The acolytes who had been turned into crazed fighters out of their will.

Among the ten remaining masked crazed fighters, the hardest to deal with was the one who could use gravity spells. Even without the latter revealing his face, every acolyte immediately knew his identity after they realized who he was behind the mask.

Lodos the Maniac.

​ His troublesome gravity spell, coupled with his [Black Needle], was the one that took the largest toll on the acolytes.

As they were unable to reach the Maniac who was only attacking from behind the protection of the other crazed fighters, Jinkan told Arcana to put a stop on the gravity user with his [Eye of Mistra].

The spell managed to keep the crazed Lodos at bay, but it also incapacitated Arcana as he needed to maintain his focus on the spell.

"How could he have this much mental power?!!" shouted the child-looking acolyte with a look of disbelief on his face. He was extremely surprised to find that he was struggling to maintain his spell.

The fact that a mere elite acolyte was able to rival and hold down Arcana's [Eye of Mistra] was a shocking revelation to those who knew the child-looking acolyte's power. Possible reasons to explain this were either that the transformation into a Nightwalker had made his mind stronger or that Lodos was one that possessed an unique mind, being the crazy maniac he was.

Seeing their numbers dwindling rapidly, Jinkan shifted the gears in her mind and then quickly shouted loudly for all to hear.

"Gather closely, everyone! Stay in groups!!"

Unfortunately, the Nephilim Princess was unable to lead the situation properly as she was still occupied battling one of the half-blood magus, who had been attacking her relentlessly from the shadows.

With her high attainment in martial art techniques, Jinkan did not have that much of a hard time, managing to dodge the magus' attacks and even delivering attacks of her own. However, without her precious artifact, the Nephilim Princess couldn't deal significant damage to the magus.

At the same time, Silva and Tyler Haze also faced similar situations with their respective opponents. Fighting against the two remaining half-blood magus, the latter utilized his extraordinary speed to keep up, while the former used her erratic movements to hold out the fight.

Still receiving no response from Emery, Silva gritted her teeth as she decided to use her poison smoke. The toxic cloud quickly overwhelmed her magus opponent and was enough to restrain the latter's movements.

Taking advantage of the golden opportunity, the white-haired girl swiftly slipped into the magus' defense. Funneling strength to her arm, the gleaming white sword in her hand flashed. A pained groan was heard as she landed a strike on the half-blood magus, forcing him to retreat.

Even though this was a moment she should have pushed her lead, Silva did not chase. Instead, she took this opportunity to rush towards one of the crazed acolytes â€" who she knew was one of Emery's closest friends.

Her sudden arrival from behind surprised Klea who was fighting with the crazed acolyte.

"DON'T YOU HURT HIM!!"

Unfortunately, the crazed Chumo was agile enough to dodge the sneak attack that Silva did. But the failure didn't discourage the serpent girl, because that was not what she was aiming to achieve.

White roots shot out from the ground and swiftly entangled Chumo's legs as he dodged the white-haired girl's attack, and seeing that opening, Silva stabbed him in the neck without the slightest hesitation.

Spllaatt!!

"What have you done!!?" Klea was hysterical and was ready to attack the serpent girl in anger.

However, she quickly stopped when she realized there was no blood.

After taking a closer look, Klea finally realized that the white-haired girl actually stabbed Chumo with a serum. It seemed to be effective as a reaction immediately occurred; Chumo's body rapidly shook and fell to his knees.

Glancing at the confused girl, Silva nonchalantly said, "Your boyfriend made this. Let's hope that it can work on your friend's condition."

The serum was the one Emery had made to treat Abrafo, and Silva had just used one of the two doses given to her before the operation began.The link to the origin of this information rests in novelenglish.net . Fɪre

She quickly threw the other one she had to Klea before going to find her previous opponent. To her surprise, the half-blood magus had managed to deal with her poison and was currently charging towards one of the strongest acolytes in their ranks.

In those few seconds where Silva attacked Chumo, the two half-blood magus ganged up on Tyler, and when they managed to get their hands on the speedster, Gorro who had been watching the situation the whole time, finally decided to make his move.

The Half Moon magus appeared behind him and swiftly gnawed his neck, taking a big bite of the acolyte's flesh while devouring all of his blood.

"Tyler!!"

"Hahaha, don't worry." Gorro spoke deviously, "You will get your turn."

Silva could only watch dumbfoundedly as Tyler Haze, once a top 10 privileged acolyte, died in a tragic fashion with his limbs and entire body torn apart mercilessly by three half-blood magus. Bloodthirsty grins hung on the faces of the three of them as they carried out the vicious deed.

The scene couldn't help but make the other acolytes tremble in trepidation, and once again she was hoping for Emery's arrival.

Gorro, who had just finished devouring his prey, blood dripping from his chin, stared at the trembling acolytes and gave out the order.

"Kill them all!"

It was at this time one figure was heard coming from the direction of one of the hallways.

Even though they were not the one Silva was expecting, the figure was still one of the top 10 Magus Academy acolytes. Meanwhile, hopeful expressions appeared on the other acolytes' faces when they saw who was coming.

As soon as he arrived at an open area of ​​the arena, the figure threw 16 metal balls, which quickly transformed into 16 metal figures.

Jai Strider, the metal puppeteer, had come to rescue.
