Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 138 Foolish Fight

In the open fields, sparks and fire of clashes were filling the entire area with their melody.

-Clank. Clank. Clank.

Sparks that seemed like fire, attacks aimed to defeat the opponent, and sounds that harmonized with each other, creating an unexpected melodious sound.

-Booooooom!

The fire, thunder, or other elements blasting out at the figure standing in the middle was looking at the boy attacking her with all his might with a smile.

The attacks weren't even reaching her.

-Xiu. Xiu. Xiu.

The arrows and spells fired at her from all directions were strong but, just when they got near her, they just… vanished.

As if all the attacks were clashing with an impenetrable wall that absorbed anything sent at her, she just stood there with the silver whip hanging around her waist.

Looking at the boy with straight eyes, who sees nothing but her, she smiled with admiration.

The place they were fighting was vast and all these spells did not affect it at all.

It was the same green grass that danced with the slow breeze of the afternoon.

The sky was clear and the enormous monument in the distance was standing strong, the same as ever.

The boy was wearing white clothes, his gold-like hair short and his eyes shining as he used the spells.

His magic was special and strong.

The fire he fired at her was refined, the wind was sharper than most, and the spears made of earth were strong while the blades of water cut everything in its path.

Just that the green grass regrow every time it was cut.

But he didn't just stop with these spells.

As he stood some distance away, ice-blue magic circles appeared behind him.

Three magic circles appeared at the same time and started creating icy winds and water around them.

The water gathered the temperature decreased, the water froze, and then the shape changed into fine weapons, ready to attack anything.

His eyes locked on the target, filled with fire to at least make her lift her finger.

He wore black shoes that seemed peculiar and the golden necklace glowed as he fought.

"[Shadow Dive]."

The boy said in an inaudible voice and vanished from the place he stood just after the three spears of ice were shot at her.

A smirk appeared on her face and without even looking at the ice spears, she turned her face towards the side and smiled as if looking at something.

And indeed, the very next second, a long, lance-like arrow shot toward her.

This arrow was special, long, and just from a look, we could tell this was no normal weapon.

Covered with peculiar text, its unusual lance-like appearance gave off an aura similar to the person it belonged to.

With a sun-like pattern on its body, the arrow glowed in a golden light, coved by cool air.

The small red gem engraved at the very end of it seemed like the heart of this alive arrow.

It flew out of nowhere and the speed it had achieved in that short time and already broken the natural sound barrier.

The golden arrow was coming at her with powerful force, and the energy it carried was also fierce.

Seeing this made her smile and this time, unlike before, she moved and lifted her finger with a radiant smile.

"Very good, Eon! You have improved," she said and snapped her fingers.

-Snap!

That small snap created power enough to break the sound barrier, as well as created a ripple that clashed with the arrow.

This was a fierce clash between two powerful attacks and the sparks, as well as blowing wind, was enough to make the ground barren.

It created a crater at the point of their collision and the blowing wind send ripples that pulled out grass from their peaceful home-like ground.

The smoke rose, and an unexpected smoke that came out of nowhere covered the area.

"Too petty, little boy," she smirked as she turned her shining blue eyes that seemed to look through everything.

-zzzzzzzzzzzz.

A ball of thunder flew in her direction with a crackling sound.

This was a spell stronger than any past ones.

The power in it was clear, and the speed was also fierce, but the fundamental aspect of this ball of lightning was its pure destructive power.

This was a (tier-3) spell, (Ball of lightning), and the one that used it was the same boy that looked no more than ten years old.

His physiques were well built, not too bulky, but just perfect for an archer.

Though we couldn't see his body underneath those big but special clothes, just his outline was enough to determine these things.

He was cute and handsome.

But that didn't change the fact that this young boy was now a (tier-3) mage.

Well, this battle was beyond just some (tier-3) mage student and a master.

He aimed the attack at what seemed like the blind spot in her impenetrable defense.

But it was still just futile against the one that looked through the spell and lifted her hand at this deadly (tier-3) spell.

-Buzzzzzz.

The ball of thunder collided with her hand... which was actually just for play from her side.

This spell couldn't penetrate her passive defense, but still, she used her hand to just... destroy the ball of thunder.

"Come out, boy. You shouldn't overdo yourself. We agreed on a weekly. Try again next time."

She aimed her words at the silhouette of the boy in the mist while the bare, beautiful hand that had just destroyed a spell was the same as before.

This strength was terrifying but, an even more terrific thing about this gorgeous lady was her smirk.

She didn't hold back her ridicule in fights, showing her genuine emotions of strong.

And this was the respect she showed to the person that had managed to make her lift her hand in this entertaining battle.

After her words and the fierce fight that had been going on since dawn, she thought that this was the end.

And it should have been the end from the point of view of any sane person after expending so much Mana, stamina, and concentration.

But the boy that got visible after the mist cleared up, was smiling while looking at his master.

This was the smile same as hers but, unlike her power-showing smirk, this was the smirk that hadn't given up on the fight just yet.

"Asta. Execute (Act-1)." the boy said and then… his body melted into the shadows.

"You little..." She shook her head at the foolish act of this foolish student of hers.

But the smile on her face never changed this whole time.

This was fun.

For her and the boy that had almost run out of all the energy from this long battle.

This was, as always, the last attempt of this cockroach.

And she knew he would do it the most flashy way he could.

Saving the most fun things for the last was his hobby, and she liked this thing in their spars.

And this time, too, she didn't move from the spot she had started with from the dawn.

They were just playing at the moment, just that the boy's life would be threatened in this fun process.

Well, he was fearless and the air that had changed was the proof of his foolishness.

"Oh, my~." she smiled as she saw through the mist and noticed what was going on at this moment.

He was indeed saving the most fun things for the last as six magic circles had appeared around her, surrounding her from all sides.

There was no chance of escape this time and these magic circles weren't of normal Mana.

She knew them and they were all (tier-3) Solnova variants of the Mana spells.

Naturally, all of them were more powerful than usual but, being able to cast six spells at the same time, and of unique attributes at that, was something only he could do.

His special spell method, (Script Magic), was something he could use because of his special mind.

But still, the concentration consumption to activate these six spells at once… she knew this was his current limit.

And he was already overdoing himself while giving his all in this last attempt.

This fool... she loved him.

"But still, this won't be enough, Eon~," she said cheerfully, and the spells shot at her from all directions.

Lifting her hand with quick action, she snapped again, this time twice.

-Snap. Snap.

Two shock waves flowed out from them and this time, the two collided with each other, increasing the power of the oscillations.

The new power born from this burned the air, and a ring of black fire devoured all spells like they were delicious.

-Boooooooooom!

The powerful spells created with much difficulty by the poor little boy... vanished without a trace.

And the aftershock of this was strong enough to create a crater around this lady.

Around her, not the place she was standing on.

That small area was the same as ever, with green grass filling it naturally.

"See, futile. Let's go in and have a bath-" she was still smiling from the futile actions of her student but, the area after the attack was too quiet and a sudden presence failed her nigh perfect senses.

-Sweeeeeeeeesh.

"Little bastard..." she shook her head and this time, in the split second she had, she left her spot that she had guarded like a fortress.

She was fast, even faster than the attack that came with unmeasurable speed.

-Boooooooom!

On that exact spot, the same arrow that was stuck some distance away, fall like a meteorite.

Colorless energy, different from Mana, densely covered the lance-like arrow.

The way it had just fallen from the sky or… been shot down by the fool that had jumped high in the sky was something only that little one could do.

But now, he was falling just like the arrow and there was nothing he can do to cushion this fall.

His life was on the line, but… this bastard was smiling victoriously.

He had achieved his goal for today.

His master had moved from her starting spot for the first time, and... that was a marvelous achievement in itself.

And though he had foolishly used almost all the Solnova in that last attack, which now created a crater bigger than the last one, he was overjoyed with the outcome.

His body slowly fall onto the ground and she caught it with her gentle hands while still in mid-air.

She was floating in the sunset sky with her beloved student with an angry expression.

"Dummy. Fool. Moron." she pouted like a little girl and she slowly floated down while carrying his lifeless body.

-Smack!

Landing safely on the ground, the first thing she did was smack this fool's head and an instinctive reply escaped his mouth.

"Ouch! But... I-I won grandma..." and those were his last words and weak smile before he fall unconscious in his grandma's safe hands.

Looking down at this imbecile, the only thing she could do was sigh.

"Fool..." she grumbled and carried him inside after clearing up all the mess and taking the long arrow with her.

Today's training was fun for them, but now, she would have to wait the whole night to punish this fool for this.

-Sweeeesh…

The vast grass fields returned to normal, waving in the winds of the evening breeze.

The night... was upon them and the look of this now familiar place had not changed one bit.
