Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 299 - The Dark Fist

Out of nowhere, without a wound visible on his face, the young man suddenly got up from the floor, before making his way back towards the guild master. His hand was curled into a fist and stretched back as he did so.

The guild master was a battle maniac, so seeing this caused him to feel a rush of adrenaline along with excitement. 

"Now it's your turn. Come at me, I won't run or dodge." Said the guild master with a joyful look

"H-Hey, he's not serious right? He's really telling a blind man to hit him?"

"I mean, how's he going to hit what he can't see? And how is he still standing after getting knocked that hard?!"

"But is he really blind though? He's been moving around quiet easily and it doesn't look like he's using his staff to do it…" 

As the people continued to mutter amongst each other. A few adventurers along with the A-Rank magician couldn't stand to watch this. They got in position and were about to intervene when suddenly Hexo stopped them.

"I wouldn't do anything if I were you." He said so as he stood in between the A-Rank magician and the Guild Master.

He then turned to the crowd of adventurers who were planning on helping the Guild Master and said.

"Before you guys try anything, look at this old man's face. You think that's the look of someone who needs help?"

They took a moment and stared at the Guild Master's face, and no doubt it showed excitement. He was looking forward to the young man's next move. A battle maniac

"Also, he punched that guy over there so it's only Fair if the guy punches back. Let em at it." Said Hexo

However, just as he said that. One of the adventurers quickly retorted

"Help the Guild Master? Don't be crazy, we're trying to help the blind one over there." He said as he pointed at the young man who showed no signs of stopping as he slowly approached the Guild Master

"That's right, we're just trying to help him."

"The guild Master won't kill him, but it could still get bad."

Upon hearing this, Hexo unintentionally let out a snort having found it hilarious before asking with a convinced smile

"Help? That guy over there?" Hexo asked as he pointed at the young man.

He then let out a sigh before shaking his head

"You really think, that guy over there needs help? Against a former S-Rank who is way past his prime? Ha, that's a funny joke."

"Huh? You calling us stupid?" One of the adventurers asked as he slowly moved his hand towards the sword on his waist.

He was around Hexo's height and bulky, though Hexo had more muscles. The adventurer also looked rather intimidating but to Hexo, he didn't stand out at all.

He wasn't a threat, however the instant his finger touched his sword's handle. Hexo let out an abundance of blood lust and killing intent aimed straight at the man as he glared at him. In that moment, the Adventurer thought twice on his next move when suddenly, another adventurer beside him, grabbed his hand to stop him.

"Hey… That's an A-Rank, Don't do anything stupid."

Upon hearing this, he moved his hand away from his sword before nodding, sweat slowly poured down his face as he realized what he had nearly gotten himself into.

"Cowards. Just Sit back and watch." Said Hexo as he turned to the young man.

The young man was now only a few steps away from the Guild Master, yet from a normal persons view, nothing stood out. He just had his arm pulled back and ready to send a fist flying forward. Something like that from someone of the young man's size wouldn't even be able to make the Guild Master Flinch from all his Armour, or so everyone thought.

However, for some reason as the young man was only two steps away, the Guild Master's excitement began to disappear, or rather, without realizing it, he had started to accumulate slight fear. From his decades of experience, he felt that in that moment, he was standing on the palm of death's hand.

Only one step away, the young man's hand was suddenly engulfed in a dark burning flame with miniature dark electric sparks flowing through it. And in an instant, his hand curled into a fist was placed right on the Guild Master's Chestplate.

The movement was so fast that most of the adventurers weren't able to see it, However all the A-Rankers along with the Guild Master were. The young man sent a fist straight at the the Guild Master. It was fast, but that was all there was to it, even the flames had disappeared.

"W-What the heck, that was so fast I could barely see it. For a second I thought that-"

'Newton's Boost' The young man thought to himself

*Boom!* *Crack*

A shock wave was suddenly sent through the room as the Guild Master was propelled backwards at High speeds. His face filled with surprise and confusion as he slammed into and through the wall only to land outside behind the guild.

The entire room was shocked, no one uttered a word. They didn't know what to say, even Hexo was surprised. He had expected something unexpected but he never expected the this type of unexpected.

In that instant, the three A-Rankers suddenly surrounded the young man. Each with their weapons pointed and placed near his neck or vital organs. 

"You see, the guild master and I are good friends, so I must ask, wasn't that a little too much Killing intent?" The Bright Sword asked with a forced smile

"Do we kill him?" The Cloaked Girl asked

"My chant is ready, just say the word." Said The magician

Upon seeing this, the rest of the adventurers snapped out of their surprise and also reacted, bringing their guard up and preparing their weapons.

"Let's Ki-"

Before the Adventurer in the crowd could finish. Hexo suddenly broke a table by slamming his fist into it, alarming everyone in the room. However they didn't leave their positions.

"You guys really trying to ridicule the Guild Master's Pride? I don't know much about him, but look outside. Does it look like he wants you to do all of this? It was a voluntary exchange of blows. If you all still insist on fighting him despite it having been fair, then You'll have to fight me too."

"Huh, what could you even do-?"

The instant the adventurer had finished, despite him being across the room to Hexo, Hexo suddenly appeared in front of him and said. "Try me."

His movement was also fast, it was as if he had suddenly accelerated during his leap. He also seemed to chant just as the guy spoke yet not many noticed.

The man fell on his butt before slowly backing away from Hexo. 

"You're siding with that guy!?" Another adventurer asked

"I am. After all, I hate it when people get punished for doing nothing wrong. And I don't care if I have to take all of you down here to prove it." Said Hexo 

The A-Rankers who saw this, remained in their position, after all, they knew something that the others didn't.

"You… You've been casting an illusion this whole time, lucky for us, Silica was barely able to see through it. You're the wan-"

"STOP!!" The Guild Master Suddenly Shouted, alarming everyone in the room

His shout was strong, far too strong for someone that had been hit through reinforced magic proof walls. He slowly got up from the ground.

"It doesn't matter who he is, all that matters is that we need him for this quest and that he's an adventurer!" He said so, clearly as he walked back towards the guild. 

He tried hiding his injuries, but it was hard to even walk. The blow he had sustained was internal not external. His ribs and lungs were squashed in. Had he had his guard up things would have ended different, but he took it directly and could still walk. A normal person would have died, so such was as expected of a former S-Rank.

"So young man, I ask you. Will you join us on our quest?" The Guild Master asked, filled with expectations which had caused him to forget his pain.

The young man nodded and in that instant, suddenly vanished off right in front of the A-Rankers before reappearing in front of the Guild Master. 

"What?"

"When did he-"

The guild master's Armour pushed into his right rib indicating that it was clearly broken.

"Argh… You got me good… *Cough*" The Guild Master muttered as he looked down on the wound

Suddenly, the Guild Master noticed all his pain disappear as the young man nodded once more before turning back to the Guild.

The guild master's eyes then widened as he noticed this. 

'He knows holy magic? But he used the dark element and fire element in that punch… Does the law of the gods not affect him?'
