Chapter 270 – Reverse Force Control

Chapter 270 - Reverse Force Control

After watching how the United Kingdom won, Theo couldn't help but frown. China Team was by no means weak, but they still lost because of one particular match. It was the battle between Nella and Cheng Sui.

The fact that Nella hadn't used her everything in that match and decided to end it with a trick told Theo that she had some assurance against them.

Although he couldn't see the extent of Clark's injury, he simply considered Clark as healed.

Even so, looking at their strength, Theo couldn't help but wonder if they had enough power to win.

Laust's blessing might be one of the greatest assurances, but it would mean nothing to their current difference. The biggest problem would be Nella.

They had this huge advantage over them, so the only way to remove that advantage was to have him fight Nella and defeat her in one on one fight.

And with the current condition, Theo didn't have enough confidence he could claim the victory for both game battles. Hence, this match would be prolonged to the very end.

Theo pinched the bridge of his nose while trying to come up with a good plan against Nella's team. Unfortunately, as he expected, it was hard to even win against this kind of power.

"Theo, what do you think?" Phyrill asked with a serious expression.

"It's not good. I can't see how we can win…"

His reply got everyone's attention. Phyrill let out a long sigh and asked, "Are they that good?"

"Yes. That Clark may be stronger than Alea. Even their Zara has excellent swordsmanship on top of her magic, which obviously was stronger than Alea. Zara alone could stop Alea and if they were combined…" Theo shook his head. "There are a few other things I want to mention, but for now, I should go to Teacher Rai first, asking him about Nella's power. If I can understand it, our chance to win will greatly increase."

"I understand." Phyrill nodded in disappointment, knowing their future was a bit bleak.

But if they considered it from another perspective, they were already in the top four. Compared to every single time they competed here, this was the first time they reached the main stage and ranked fourth for the very least. There was still a chance to get the bronze medal if they defeated whoever lost in the other block.

It was a high achievement for them. No one mentioned it, but Theo could already see Eilric Family's business increase in price. It was because they trusted Alea would be able to reach Mythical Rank in the future. If they could get Theo to work for them, it would have a similar effect.

Ellen and the others would also bring some benefits, so even if they lost, nobody would complain about their performance.

"Anyway, that's it." Theo rose from his seat and glanced over Radvils. "I believe I can return…"

"Do as you see fit. You can bother that lazy Rai to death." Radvils nodded with a serious expression.

"Thanks." Theo then left the room without saying anything to other people.

Seeing his expression, Alea couldn't help but ask Radvils, "Can I have the recording?"

…

As soon as Theo returned to the hotel, he banged Rai's door.

Rai scratched the back of his head with a sleepy face. "Do you need anything from me?"

"I need you to explain Nella's power."

"Ah, that…" Rai looked down, falling into deep thought. After a while, he opened his door and said, "Come on in."

Theo entered Rai's room as the latter pointed to the chair.

When he was about to sit, he saw Rai grabbing a paper and a needle.

"My control is not at her level and it's also not the same," Rai explained and sat on the bed. "I'm too lazy to listen to your understanding, so you just need to listen to me.

"First of all, Control is divided into several categories, depending on the way you use it. However, in this topic, they are categorized as Soft, Force, and Perfect." Rai raised the paper in his hand. "Soft Control can allow you to channel your Magic Power to another thing outside your body. It can also cover your whole body as if it's a sword.

"Many great people are doing this to protect themselves from any damage. And… What you want to learn is the release of the Soft Control." Rai then placed the paper on top of his palm before the paper began to float staggeringly. "When you release a certain amount of Magic Power, you can float something like this, albeit the flow of Soft Control is limited despite being trained to the extreme.

"That's why we need to combine the Soft Control with Force Control. You usually charge a bit more Magic Power to your Magic Bullets to bend them, right? That's the way…"

Theo furrowed his eyebrows and asked, "But how can you release that much power? I mean, we don't use any skills, so we can't really release that abundant Magic Power… Can't we?"

Rai nodded. "That's why I said combined. The "Skill" we are talking about is none other than Soft Control. By using this trick, you are able to create a certain disruption in your body."

"A disruption in my body?" Theo furrowed his eyebrows.

"Yes." Rai pointed at his yellow paper. "Imagine this is your hand. The yellow color of this paper is your Magic Power, which basically gathers all over your hand. In order to create a massive influx of Magic Power, we are going to cut the paper into two.

"This will create a disruption of Magic Power inside your own hand, launching half of them back to the heart while the other half came out of the pores on your hand. How to cut them and how do we control their flow? The answer is simple. It's none other than Soft Control. In other words, this technique is the opposite of your normal Force Control with skill."

Theo closed his eyes before recalling what Nella said back then. "Depends on the dosage, huh…"

"Dosage?"

"How do we want them to move, what kind of impact they will give, and so on." Theo closed his eyes before opening them again with a gasp. His eyes were wide open as he stared at Rai with a dumbfounded expression. "!!!"

"So, that's how it is…"
