Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

Chapter 1816  Elites

While the others began their training to secure their spots in Team A, Emery was led to a different facility, one separate from the rest. As he walked through the corridors, it was clear that this was a place of great importance, with well-guarded areas and heavily secured doors.

He entered an empty waiting room and the magus who brought him said,

"Please wait, the vice commander will come for you shortly"

A sense of anticipation and curiosity filled him as he waited, wondering what kind of person or strength the vice commander of the expedition group would be. It had to be someone exceptional to lead such a vital mission.

After a brief wait, the door opened, and to Emery's surprise, a familiar young man stepped into the room. Recognition slowly dawned on him as he remembered who it was.

"Emery! Finally good to see you again," the man greeted him warmly.

Emery took a moment to process the unexpected encounter. "Strider, Jai Strider!" he exclaimed, a sense of nostalgia washing over him. Jai Strider was one of the top magus of the academy during his time there.

"Great, you remember!" Jai said with a smile. "I heard about your supposed death and your crazy adventures. I was hoping it wouldn't affect your memory."

"Jai, are you the vice commander of the Nephilim faction?" Emery asked.

"Yes, I am," Jai confirmed. He went on to explain that Jinkan had recruited him from his family when he had broken through to the magus realm six years ago. With the resources of the Nephilim faction, Jai had made rapid progress and had only recently reached the half-moon realm, a testament to his immense talent and dedication.

"Let's go meet the rest of the team!" Jai said excitedly.

Emery followed Jai inside the special training center. As he entered, he couldn't help but notice a young fire magus training vigorously. The magus, though not yet a full moon, was certainly at the peak of the half-moon realm. He was casting a special spell involving a flaming bird that was engaged in battle against multiple Avalon drones at the same time.

Jai introduced the fire magus, saying, "This one is called Kael. He's a rising star in the Nephilim faction, specializing in fire magic."

Emery observed Kael's training with great interest. It was clear that Kael possessed exceptional control and power in his fire-based abilities.

Emery continued to observe the team members in awe. Talio Greenbloom, the half-elf plant magus, had an air of serenity about him. His emerald eyes sparkled with wisdom as he delicately wove intricate patterns in the lush greenery around him. His control over plant elements was truly remarkable, turning vines into defensive barriers and shaping flowers into razor-sharp projectiles.

Claris Ainsworth, the striking ice magus, possessed an otherworldly beauty. Her skin glistened like polished crystal, and her long white hair framed her face in a cascade of frozen elegance. She controlled ice with exceptional finesse, forming formidable barriers that seemed unbreakable and then shattering them into shards as sharp as diamonds.

Emery was intrigued to find that Darian, the half-moon Earth magus, had a rugged and sturdy appearance. His dark skin and sturdy build were befitting of one who wielded the power of earth. He manipulated the ground beneath him with ease, creating towering rock barriers and launching massive stone projectiles.

Evi Wavesong, the water magus, exuded a sense of fluidity. Her azure skin and hair seemed to flow like water itself. She demonstrated masterful control over water, crafting mesmerizing tidal waves and manifesting protective barriers that rippled like liquid glass.

Aziz, the wind magus, was a dynamic figure. He could turn his body into a living tornado, his form twisting and spiraling like a fierce storm. Emery watched in amazement as Aziz summoned powerful gusts of wind, creating swirling tempests and displaying unparalleled aerial dexterity. Googlᴇ search NoᴠelFɪre.net

Olvos Stormbringer, the full moon-lighting magus, was a formidable presence. His body crackled with electrical energy, and his eyes shone with an electric intensity. With each surge of power, Olvos sent shockwaves through the training room, demonstrating his command over lightning in a truly electrifying manner.

Emery was in the midst of an extraordinary assembly of elemental talents. Each team member embodied their element, and their formidable abilities promised a promising future for the special team in the upcoming expedition.

Jai explained that while the other groups were being trained in teamwork, these special individuals was being prepared to become a powerhouse and a leader for the small groups of five. Each element had its own leader, responsible for coordinating the efforts of the team members with that particular affinity.

"Fire, Ice, Plant, Earth, Water, Wind, and Lightning, so I guess for Metal, one will be led by you, Jai?" Emery inquired.

"Exactly," Strider confirmed with a nod. "We want to ensure that each group has a capable leader with expertise in their respective element. It's all about specialization and making the best use of our unique abilities."

Emery nodded in understanding, realizing that this approach would give them an edge in the upcoming expedition by allowing each group to maximize their potential and strategic advantage.

Three full moon magus and four half-moons were part of this elite group. Emery couldn't help but be impressed by the power and potential they all possessed. Achieving full moon status in the magus realm before 30 years was a remarkable feat, considering that many magus would need a hundred years or more to reach even half moon.

Nephilim was renowned for its proficiency in light magic.

"You are right, follow me," Jai responded.

Jai added that among the expected 30,000 young magus entering the expedition, there wouldn't be more than 1% of them who are Full Moon magus.

Having full moon magus among them was a testament to the strength and significance of this special team and the Nephilim strenght.

Emery inquired, "I believe there are more?" He hadn't seen any magus who specialized in light elements among the group, and Nephilim was renowned for its proficiency in light magic.

"You are right, follow me," Jai responded.

Emery and Jai proceeded into another training room where they were greeted by yet another intense teamwork battle. It was a chaotic skirmish between the team of four magus and a swarm of over twenty drones. In the midst of the battle, Emery immediately recognized one of the Nephilim geniuses, Eseshoo. He was demonstrating exceptional proficiency in fire and light-based attacks against the drones, showing her incredible prowess. Following him was Jinkan, fighting right beside him with great cooperation.

As Emery observed the intense combat, he was taken aback when he noticed a familiar figure from their original group – a young monk with remarkable control over multiple arm auras that manifested behind him. The monk was Mahinder Nieves, and his presence among this elite team was indeed surprising and impressive.

Emery's unexpected encounter with Mahinder was a reunion he hadn't anticipated in this elite group of magus.

The monk was the winner of the Magus Game Tournament, but it appears the incident made him unable to be accepted by any faction, if not for Jinkan. His journey was a testament to the Nephilim's commitment to nurturing talent and harnessing the potential of magus with untapped abilities.

Finally, as the fourth team member emerged, This not-so-young full magus with a scar on his cheek was a light magus, a master of light-based spells. The man used a combination of masterful light swords and spirit attacks. The very essence of light magic seemed to radiate from him.

"He's the commander of the expedition," Jai said

As soon as he realized Emery's arrival the so-called commander stopped their training and together all four of them exited the room,

The commander gazing directly at Emery, inquired, "This is the one called Emery?"

Eeshoo responded, "Yes, he is. He's the one who saved me from Demon's pit," expressing his gratitude with a warm smile.

The man turned his attention to Emery and sternly stated, "I don't care how many Nephilim prince you've saved; you must earn your place in this team."

Emery accepted the challenge with a calm demeanor, saying, "Good, I'm itching for a fight." The stage was set, and Emery was determined to prove his worth to his new teammates.
