Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 172 - Angel: Level 2

A lot of flames, it was hot to John who wasn't even on the receiving end, he could feel the hot temperature all the way from where he stood. 

If even he could feel it, then he could only imagine what the girl was feeling, he was even starting to feel bad for her now. 

As the girl's body was enveloped in dark flames, Master Sylvia suddenly pulled her dagger out and shadow-stepped away. 

The moment she did, the girl suddenly swung her spear at the Area behind her where master sylvia was standing. 

As the flames grew dimmer, John felt his heart drop, she was out healing the burns. Her face and body were all covered in flames, yet her clothes and armour hadn't suffered any burns. 

On top of that, whenever a burn would form on her skin, it would quickly heal up 

She was trying something which was making the flames get dimmer but they weren't disappearing. 

John couldn't tell what it was, but whatever it was, he had to stop her from finishing it. 

[fulgurationem] Trans: Lightning Flash 

John reached her in a flash and as he did, his lightning boost ran out, however he didn't stop, despite being slower, he continued on with the attack and swung his daggers. 

At the same time, Master Sylvia shadow stepped behind the girl once more before swinging both of her daggers diagonally at the girl 

She had no way to parry both of them and no one to run to 

[It's ov-] 

"Level 2." 

Suddenly an immense pressure of wind was emitted out of her which would've been enough to blow any normal person away, but John and Master Sylvia weren't normal 

Even with that wind pressure they continued their attack, but before it could reach them, she barely avoided them as she jumped while tilting her body in a way where it made john's swing pass right by her. 

It was unbelievable, not only did she out speed it, but she dodged it in a way which should've been impossible for someone with all that armour. she managed to out speed John's swing. 

 Master Sylvia's swing was faster than John's and managed to graze her neck but it was pointless as it would heal right away 

While she was still Mid-Air after the jump, Master Sylvia shadow stepped above her and was about to swing her daggers once more when all of the sudden she tilted her head to the right 

And in that instant, the girl's spear passed right past master's cheek giving it a small cut in the process. 

With that dodged, Master Sylvia continued her attack 

*Slash* 

She cut the girl's back leaving behind a large cut wound which was covered in flames. But as Master Sylvia did so- 

*Boom* 

She was hit by an immense wind pressure from the side, which sent her heading straight towards the edge of the arena. 

"Master!" 

Master Sylvia suddenly regained her balanced mid-air before she could reach the edge and shadow stepped to cancel out the momentum 

She shadow stepped to john's side and watched as the girl in front of her began to form Air spears around her 

"She can use chant-less magic...?!" 

"John, back me up." Said Master Sylvia as she got in the counter stance 

Hearing this John got into the counter stance and let out a sigh to calm himself down and empty his mind before he said 

"Understood." 

For a moment it looked like the girl vanished, If John hadn't had his eyes glued to her, he wouldn't have seen it. 

She leapt at them. With his senses focused on her sudden movement, John and Master Sylvia both matched each other's movement as they shifted their balance to move their body in the last second the avoid her. 

It was the most basic move in the counter stance and the very first he learnt for said stance, yet it was also one of the most useful. 

As she passed by them, the wind spears which she had formed were propelled at the two. Master Sylvia cut the ones aimed at her but when John swung his dagger to cut the ones aimed at him, it went right through it. 

Or more precisely, It suddenly split from two spears into four so the dagger ended up missing. 

[!] 

As they were all about to reach John's head, it suddenly dispersed 

"Verum Ventus clypeus" Translation: True Wind Shield 

Right before it hit him, John formed a wind shield which managed to cancelled out the wind attack. 

[That was close...] 

John quickly recomposed himself and entered back into the stance, and as he did so, he lost track of the girl. 

He had taken his eyes off of her for a single moment, and in that single moment, he lost track of her 

[Where is she?] 

He wondered as he looked around, then when he turned around, he noticed that she was behind him currently involved in a clash with Master Sylvia. 

John felt useless, without 'Possession' He had no hopes of keeping up with them, but he didn't want to sit back and do nothing. 

[Fulgurationem] 

Once more, John joined in the clash while pushing his body to go even further with the help of Fulgurationem. 

As he did so, the Electricity currents around his body became more visible and shocking, and his hair began to rise up. 

But before it could completely Rise up, his electricity boost ended, and his movements returned to normal. 

John couldn't believe what was happening, he last 5 seconds longer than before with 'Lightning Flash' which is something he only lasts 3 seconds at most when he's not using the dark version. 

Now that his body was getting more used to the spell due to his constant uses, he was starting to be able to use it for a longer period of time 

With a nervous smile formed on his face, John realised that the only way he could possibly be of use now, would be by improving his current spells.
