Just so you know – Bracketed sentences are tl notes and there are a few names that I’ve changed, such as Gerastone academy -> Glaston academy and Flaming Lessor Magic Academy -> Fleming Lesser Magic Academy

-Chapter 7 (Descent of the G.o.d of Magic)-

The sudden appearance of a young magician left Ryan Giggs perplexed.

Honestly speaking, the attack made on Fleming Lessor Magic Academy wasn’t a challenge at all; the magicians here all greenhorns. Their magic skills were practically on the level of a child; soft and immature.

Frankly, he was a bit disappointed. For example, the magician guarding the transmission tower had abundant magic. He could release powerful level 4 spells, but Ryan Giggs only used 2 seconds to kill and behead him.

One charge, one strike, one knife to kill. It was so easy it was enough to raise one’s hackles.*

*(Make one angry) A magician actually didn’t know how to utilise his magic in battle. This was inconceivable. In the black forest, it would be impossible for magicians like these to make a living.

The young man in front of him didn’t look like he was past 20, he was probably an apprentice in the magic academy. The teachers in the academy were so weak, could they even teach any good apprentices?

Because of this, Ryan Giggs didn’t immediately take action. Instead, he hummed and sneered at the young man. “Young man, just because you learnt magic for several days, you think you’re omnipotent? Look at him, his time spent learning magic has probably exceeded your age by a lot.”

Ryan Giggs kicked the corpse at his feet. Link recognised him, he was Fair, one of the few level 4 magicians in the academy. He was 50 this year and had learnt magic for more than 30 years, really more than Link’s age.

“Magic strength isn’t synonymous with the time spent studying, the most important is talent. Dark elf b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, I’ll let you know what true magic is!”

Link's voice was extremely calm. While he was speaking, he lightly tapped his foot on the ground a few times. This action was extremely discreet and n.o.body noticed it.

"Hahaha, then let me test out your 'talent'. Hughman, go and bring me back his head!" Ryan Giggs pointed at a dark elf warrior beside him and ordered.

"As you wis.h.!.+"

The dark elf warrior carried a long s.h.i.+eld and approached Link. When he reached 20 steps away from Link, he positioned the s.h.i.+eld in front of him and charged.

Fighting skill: Lesser Charge

Use: The user utilises a special breathing method to make the body erupt with unimaginable power for a limited time. That was the best time to take the magician down.

'Shua' The dark elf warrior's speed reached an extreme point. As his body streaked across the air, it created a loud sound.

The most frightening part was that this warrior had a s.h.i.+eld and it was difficult to hurt him with magic. If he got close to Link, one strike would be sufficient to decapitate Link.

Yes; only one strike!

In the darkness, Celine had already extended magic wand, dull light flickering at the end of it. Seeing Link in danger, she could not stand by and watch any longer.

However, at the last moment, Celine’s hand jolted back, stopping the casting.

This was because Hughman never managed to reach Link.

When Hughman reached halfway to Link, his speed had reached its maximum. He used all his strength for every step, every step leaving a deep imprint in the ground. Stepping harder on the ground gave him more propelling force, allowing him to advance with higher speed.

However, when he reached 5 steps away from Link, he realised that the normally solid ground had become soft. At a loss of what to do, he was unable to borrow even an iota of force from the ground.

Not only did he not borrow any force, because he lost his footing, one foot sunk into the soft ground.

The scary part was that his charging speed was extremely fast; moving over 20 meters per second. One foot had sunk into the soft ground, while the other was still stepping on the solid ground. Under his high speed, a ‘ka’ sound rang out, Hughman’s hipbone was fractured.

Not only that; the vulnerable part between his two legs was also crushed onto the hard ground!

(ouch)

Because he used his highest speed, his fall was extremely heavy, only hearing a snapping sound.

His hipbone was fractured and his vulnerable place crushed; this was definitely an unbearable pain.

“Ah~ Ah~ Ah~” His bloodcurdling screams could be heard by everyone.

After screaming 3 times, the warrior’s head tilted and fainted from the pain.

This was how warrior Hughman was disposed of by Link’s stealthily cast magic.

Swamp:

Level 0 magic spell

Use: Turning solid ground into soft mud.

(Note: Don’t step into it! Definitely don’t step into it with strength! It is your own responsibility if you run at high speed and step into this.)

“Eh?” Ryan Giggs finally faced Link squarely. He looked at Hughman’s condition, his eyes looking at Link imposingly. “Apprentice, you’ve angered me!”

This magician before him was merely a low grade one, but was able to take down Hughman. It wasn’t because his magic was powerful, but it was just because they were careless.

However, he begin to get serious now.

Producing a battle knife from his waist, he ordered the warrior beside him. “Terry, you guard the transmission tower. I’ll personally kill this thing with my own hands.”

“Yes, commander.” Terry withdrew to one side. He knew that Ryan Giggs would definitely not gang up on a juvenile magician due to a warrior’s pride.

Ryan Giggs slowly walked forward, swiping the battle knife in the air casually, making a ‘shua’ sound in the air.

The heavy obsidian s.h.i.+eld in his hand shone with a dull gleam, looking extremely eye catching in the darkness. This was the warrior qi of a level 3 warrior.

He continued walking unhurriedly towards Link.

“Fireball!” Link shouted.

A white ball of fire the size of a gla.s.s bead rapidly condensed, streaking across the air in a straight line, flying towards Ryan Giggs.

Ryan Giggs casually raised his s.h.i.+eld, a ‘peng’ sound sounded out. The fireball struck the s.h.i.+eld, dispersing into sparks, not causing any effect to Ryan Giggs. The warrior qi on the s.h.i.+eld also did not have any noticeable change.

Level 0 magic spells were too weak, a strong level 3 warrior could easily defend against these type of attacks.

Ryan Giggs faintly said, “If your magic is only of this level, then you need not struggle — just stretch out your neck and let me behead you.”

Ryan Giggs who was in full anti-magic body armour, was like an insurmountable war chariot.

Celine who was still in the shadows, extended her magic wand once again. This time, Ryan Giggs was a veteran soldier. Furthermore, he had warrior qi. She also didn’t believe that Link was able to prevail over this type of opponent.

She needed to help him.

In an instant, Link once again stretched out his hand.

The Crescent magic wand in his hand repeatedly moved. This time, the Crescent magic wand was like a baton in a conductor’s hands.

Once again, a fireball condensed from the air. However, this time, Link condensed 9 fireb.a.l.l.s in a second.

That means, in a second, Link used almost 0.1 seconds to condense each fireball, demonstrating his astonis.h.i.+ng speed in casting magic.

Another astonis.h.i.+ng matter followed.

9 fireb.a.l.l.s flew. Every trajectory of each fireball was random, drawing physics-defying arcs in the air. However, their sole target were all the same — Ryan Giggs.

The most inconceivable thing was that fireb.a.l.l.s also aimed at different points of Ryan Giggs's body, some fireb.a.l.l.s collided with Ryan Giggs's front body, others spiralled around his body to hit his back, hitting the c.h.i.n.ks in his armour. Some even flew towards the eye holes in his helmet.

'Peng' 'Peng' 'Peng' 'Peng' All the fireb.a.l.l.s exploded simultaneously, a few flames spluttering into the seams of Ryan Giggs's armour, causing injury to him.

"f.u.c.ker, my patience has run out because of your small tricks." Ryan Giggs's voice was serious. The fireb.a.l.l.s were extremely annoying, actually causing him pain.

With Hughman's example, Ryan Giggs didn't dare to charge Link, instead slowly jogging towards Link.

Link begin to wave his magic wand again.

'Shua la' Once again, 9 fireb.a.l.l.s, once again, the physics-defying arcs, aiming at the c.h.i.n.ks in his armour.

This time, Ryan Giggs had learnt from before, raising his s.h.i.+eld to cover his head and face.

The fireb.a.l.l.s had limited power, even if it hit him, his warrior qi protecting would reduce it to a merely scald which requred only one or two hours to heal completely. As long as his eyes were fine, everything was alright.

'Peng' 'Peng' 'Peng' The fireb.a.l.l.s exploded again. Even though it didn't cause Ryan Giggs much harm, the impact of the explosion made Ryan Giggs feel like he was unable to breathe properly.

"This d.a.m.ned apprentice, I will definitely crush his skull!" Anger begin to rise in Ryan Giggs's heart, and his footsteps got increasingly quicker.

Anybody getting pa.s.sively beaten would also get angry.

Link's mana was quickly being exhausted by the fireball spells. However, he still had 13 free points and he quickly used 1 free point to gain 10 additional mana points. Afterwards, exploiting the moment when Ryan Giggs – who was battered and bruised from the barrage of fireb.a.l.l.s – attacked out of anger, he suddenly changed his spell.

"Grease!"

Grease:

Level 0 magic

Use: The ground will become extremely slippery, like a layer of grease was wiped on it.

In an instant, the floor below Ryan Giggs became as smooth as a mirror.

At this moment, Ryan Giggs was still jogging, holding his s.h.i.+eld in front of his face, being bombarded bt fireb.a.l.l.s till he was fuming. It was this anger that caused his defeat.

In a fight, the most taboo thing to do is to lose your calm. This would make one's rationality greatly decrease.

The outcome: Ryan Giggs never noticed what was happening beneath his feet.

More accurately, he was paying attention, but he was only paying attention to the use of the swamp technique. When he saw Link cast a spell, he was afraid of sinking into the soft ground, and lightened his footsteps. However, he didn't expect the floor to remain hard, and instead become as smooth and slippery like a mirror.

Thus, when he stepped on the slippery floor, he realised he lapsed in his judgment. He panicked, losing his balance. The heavy armour on his body only served to make him more clumsy, he fell on his back, facing the sky.

Now, let us talk a bit about the details of armours.

It is impossible for all joints of any armour to be fully plated in metal, some parts are required to have soft leather material to allow the body to move. This is especially true for the crotch of a person.

When Ryan Giggs fell, a hole tore in his crotch area. Under normal circ.u.mstances, a hole would never tear there.

However, now, this hole would cause his demise.

"Purchase magic: Vector Throw!"

Vector throw:

Level 1 magic spell

Use: Throwing an object at high speed. The lighter the object, the faster the velocity.

Link understood the power of this spell very well. When throwing an object with 1 kg – for instance, a rock – rock or anything, the magic spell would allow the rock to attain a minimum speed of 50 meters per second.

1 kg rock, a minimum velocity of 50 meters per second. If this was to collide with a vulnerable part of the human body, the consequences would be unthinkable.

After swiftly buying the magic spell, Link pointed his magic wand at the ground, lowly shouting. "Go!"

A rock the approximate size of a fist immediately shot out, drawing out a beautiful arc, accurately striking Ryan Gigg's crotch.

'Peng' a dreadful striking noise sounded out. Although the striking sound was soft, anybody's heart would jump after hearing it.

How painful was this?

"Eh~" Ryan Giggs let out a m.u.f.fled groan, sounding like a c.o.c.k who's neck was being clutched.

At this moment, his body finally slipped down, flinging away his s.h.i.+eld and battle knife, holding his crotch area on the ground and rolling about.

He didn't know what had happened down there, but he felt unbearable pain enough to make anyone go mad. Even scarier, when he covered his crotch with his hand, he was actually unable to feel his 'little brother''s existence, as if it wss already mincemeat.*

*(Little brother is often referred to as one's d.i.c.k or p.e.n.i.s in Chinese)

Pain, panic and fear, various emotions and feelings continuously flashed in Ryan Giggs's brain. He had long forgotten to defend, let alone maintain the warrior qi to defend against further magic spells.

"Earth thorn!"

(It's a magic spell in case you

Link finished repairing his knife.

Suddenly, a half-meter spike from the ground shot through a crack on the armour on Ryan Giggs's neck smoothly like b.u.t.ter.

Ryan Giggs died!

The warrior's face, Terry, was filled with disbelief.

The commander was slain! Furthermore, throughout the entire fight, the opponent had not moved his body at all, instead just using some low level magic spells from a distance.

How was this possible?

In ths shadows, Celine was similarly dumbstruck.

The highest level magic spell used was level 1, and he had killed a level 3 warrior who was wrapped up in iron armour like a stone. In her entire life, this was her first time seeing something like this.

'Zeze, by grasping the perfect opportunity, with his terrifying magic skill, this powerful warrior was played to death by him.' Celine's eyes were astonis.h.i.+ng, having captured all the details of the fight.

Because of this, Celine was dumbstruck.

I finally got this done ._. well hope you enjoyed the chapter. Oh and there are some simple careless mistakes here and there – perhaps a missing s.p.a.cebar or a grammatically wrong word. Do sound out in the comments – I don’t have an editor ;-; It’d be helpful, thx
