Chapter 1313 Go!
Chapter 1313 Go!
Though his face was pale and his breath short, Magister Griffith loudly spoke every word as he channeled the spells in his hands. Determination, understanding, and regret; a mix of emotions swirled in the magister's eyes.
"I should have listened to the young acolyte… It was indeed possible for the enemy to directly mass-teleport into the Magus Academy after all."
The man coughed up blood after those words left his mouth, yet despite that, he continued to speak as he locked eyes with the female grand magus.
"Your affinity with space allows you to control the artifact here in the Hall of Aspire, but you know that you also need the key," Magister Griffith momentarily paused. "The Headmaster's Staff… That mean, you must have had someone prepared at the closing ceremony to take it from Yvere."
The magister's words allowed Klea access to some of the information about the recall spell she initially lacked. However, as she listened, she could not help but find it strange.
She felt as if the man was explaining the situation on purpose, for someone to hear.
Klea didn't quite understand it, but that did not deter her from secretly taking notes in her mind. Wanting to know what the magister was planning, she made sure to perk up her sight and hearing.
Once again, Magister Griffith shouted.
"Zenonia! What I fail to comprehend is, how would you use the Headmaster's Staff, without the headmaster present!?"
Hearing his question, the woman showed an intrigued look. When her viciously smirking lips opened, every word came out crisp and clear.
"Who said we don't have one?"
Zenonia's words struck Griffith's mind. The magister's eyes widened as a certain realization dawned upon him.
"No, it can't be! What have you done!?"
The Magister's expression changed into one filled with horror and disbelief.
"You finally got it? Too bad, you're too late, there is nothing you can do to stop it" said Zenonia with a smile.
"You monster!!" Enraged, the magister rapidly threw both of the lightning spheres in his hands, one after another.
Zenonia was ready to stop the attack with a relaxed smile on her face. However, as the attack rapidly closed in, she soon realized that they were not aimed at her.
The lightning spheres quickly flew past her and rushed toward Klea and the others.
The moment Magister Griffith closed his hand into a fist, one of the lightning spheres powerfully exploded into four separate smaller spheres and shot toward the four half-bat magus, taking them by surprise and throwing them back dozens of meters.
Meanwhile, the second one flew past Klea and blew up in a space several meters behind her.
BAAAMMM!!!
In contrast to the loud explosion sound, the explosion itself was nowhere as intense but It created a hole in the space, and in it, Klea could see the place she was in before, the Hall of Aspire.
Klea was momentarily stunned, but she quickly understood.
The Magister just created an exit for her and all those explanations from before were meant for her.
For her to escape and warn Grand Magus Yvere about the danger and how they will take the Headmaster staff from him.
Zenonia's relaxed smile instantly vanished. She hurriedly cast a spell to stop Klea, There was a distortion of space, a void ready to eat the girl up but the magister was ready to cast his best personal spell at lightning speed, one that was most dependable for his job as a magister.
[Heavenly Thunder Cage]
At that instant, a sphere of lightning surrounded Zenonia and injured her, simultaneously preventing her from moving and casting her spell.
Seeing that his plan succeeded, Magister Griffith hurriedly shouted to Klea.
"Go! Tell Yvere! The academy is in danger!"
However, Klea did not rush straight toward the created exit. Instead, she quickly grabbed Anas by his arm and shouted to the kneeling Titan, "Sigurd, let's go!"
It took her a second before she could grab the near-death Anas from the ground. In that short period, the four half-blood magus had already stood back up and was currently rushing forward to stop them.
"Leave… me…" Anas painfully said in a hoarse voice before he finally passed out.
But Klea gritted her teeth and forced herself to bring the Kaleos Noble with her.
15 steps were all she needed.
10 steps.
5 steps.
From behind her, she could feel a presence quickly closing in. Two of the four half-blood magus were already only a few meters away from them.
There wasn't enough time.
"You're not going anywhere!" the magus closest to her shouted.
However, an ax was suddenly thrown from the side, forcing one of the half-bloods to dodge away. Meanwhile, another stopped just a meter away from Klea as Sigurd grabbed the half-blood magus's leg with his remaining strength and smashed him onto the ground.
"Arrghhh!!"
With the meager amount of strength Sigurd had left, it was apparent that the Titan would not be able to hold onto the magus for long.
"Go!! Save my master, save the academy!!" the Titan shouted.
Tears welled up in Klea's eyes as she finally jumped into the space rift. The last scene she saw was of Sigurd holding his ground, blocking all four half-blood magus on his own and receiving multiple blows from the enemies.
Just a moment before the portal closed up, the strong figure also fell to the ground. The Titan warrior, Sigurd, was no more.
But Klea did not have the time to cry, nor did she have the time to heal Anas. Right after she regained her balance, she quickly got off the hall and summoned her Thunderbird before laying the half-dead Kaleos noble on the Thunderbird's back.
"Hang on, Anas!! Don't die! Not now!!"
After the hurried preparation, she immediately flew toward the Grand Hall building on the Thunderbird's back. On the way, she couldn't help but feel anxious about both Anas and the Magus Academy, but she fixed her mind on her purpose.
Her target was to warn Grand Magus Yvere, who supposedly held the Headmaster's Staff, the key to Zenonia's mass-teleportation spell.
The massive Arena building finally entered her sight in just a minute. Under the eyes of the millions of spectators in the Arena, the Egyptian Queen dived down from the sky riding her Thunderbird.
Multiple enforcers quickly rushed forward to stop her, prompting her to hurriedly shout, "Let me pass! I bring urgent news!!"
At the same time, from the distance, Klea saw an unexpected figure step forward. And being so close to the grand magus, the figure successfully landed a sneak attack.
SPLLAATTT!!
