Chapter 107 Elric Arrives (II)
"And, The mysterious leader in their mouth"
Hearing Elric say this, Melinda's eyes completely dilated
From this one-handed man in front of her, she felt an unprecedented fear
"W-W-Who are you? And what do you want from us?" 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
Stammering slightly, Melinda took steps back and she tried to avoid Elric's edge
Unfortunately, she didn't know that Elric at this time was looking at her like he was looking at an idiot.
Obviously, he just told her who she was, yet she was still asking for his identity.
Thinking of this, Elric wondered if something was missing in Melinda's head.
However, as for sensing the fear in her, Elric didn't blame her as he deliberately emitted his aura to show his deterrence.
Aura, this was another thing Elric learnt apart from the mana slash. With his further research in magic, Elric's use of mana has become more and more diverse as he discovered more uses of and aspects everyday
Now, just relying on the dream rune, one of the first runes he soul inscribed, Elric can project his emotions such as anger, murderousness, and such into the air with mana, achieving the effect of leaving the enemy in fear and stunning them.
Thinking of his latest achievement in Mana use, Elric suddenly felt proud.
Unfortunately, just when in he was in the middle of a new breakthrough in his training and research, a sudden change interrupted him
Due to what happened earlier with his arm shattering, Elric realised a lot of things. And one of those things he realised was that his physical strength was not enough.
If only his muscles were a bit stronger and his bones a bit denser, Elric knew that there was a high probability his had wouldn't have been scrapped
Sadly it's too late.
However, although it was too late and he had already lost his hand, Elric decided to focus on improving his physical strength.
So since then whenever he had the opportunity, apart from studying magic Elric also did things like going on jogs and doing one-handed push-ups in order to increase his physical strength.
And to Elric's surprise, it seemed to work! Perhaps it was because people of Elias had a different physique from that of the blue star, but just in a few days Elric had already managed to get a set of six pack and toned muscles
Anyone from the blue star who saw him now would most likely assume he was a body trainer who had been working out for years.
Unfortunately, just when Elric had already removed his shirt and was about to start his midnight exercise, a strange situation suddenly occurred in his small world.
Through his connection with the others, Elric noticed the situation with the thread connecting him and Alvin was acting up
It seemed to flicker from time to time as if it was about to disappear at any moment, plus it also released some sharp bursts of sulphur-like ominous aura constantly trying to pollute his small world.
Noticing the situation was not right, Elric quickly quarantined the Aura so as not to spread, and cut fo Alvin's connection to the small world
Thinking of what happened back then, Elric face gradually became dignified
That Aura being emitted was the same one he felt when he fought Ristarte last time, the same suffocating presence and sulphur like smell, Elric didn't believe he would make a mistake 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
Realising this, Elric knew there might something be seriously wrong with Alvin
So postponing his workout, Elric didn't even bother to wear his shirt as he quickly after notifying George and Davis after which he left Hogwarts as he dashed towards Alvin's position. Hopefully, he wasn't too late.
Casting a light body-strengthening spell on his body, Elric followed the connection with the rest of the apprentice wizards since he had already cut off Alvin
Thankfully the distance wasn't too far. After a few minutes of running at high speed, Elric successfully reached their location.
However, what he saw next left him at a loss for words.
At this moment, it seemed like Alvin and a somewhat giant woman were about to go to war, while the rest of her tribesmen were tied up and at the feet of the apprentice wizards
Seeing this, Elric knew that the war was about to end.
Thinking of this, Elric decided to wait for a bit just to observe Alvin and see if anything was wrong.
Unfortunately, before he could see anything, a change suddenly happened.
Just now, the giant woman had a flurry of emotions on her face as her expression switched from unwillingness to anger to determination.
Watching all this happen, Elric was suddenly curious about what she wanted to do.
However, what happened next made him feel otherwise.
In his front, the giant woman suddenly made a movement like she wanted to bite her thumb.
And with the getting of her thumb to her mouth, her Aura seemed to double at every moment so much so that Elric was beginning to wonder if another Ristarte was about to be born.
Feeling the increase, Elric knew he had to stop whatever it is she wanted to do.
With a look of determination, Elric took out his practice twig as he accumulated his mana
*It seems that I can test out one of my moves*
Although Elric felt her ever-increasing aura, it was still too low for the current Elric to look at
You know that ever since Elric lost his arm, his training workload had doubled as he tried to remove the weakness from within him
Now just judging by his current strength gotten from training and the increase of apprentice wizards. Elric even had a feeling he could beat two of his former selves.
Shaking his head, Elric decided to focus on the current matter. At this point in time, Melinda's aura had already climbed to the peak
Seeing this, Elric knew he had no more time to waste
*Boom!*
Making a slash, Elric released his attack to the nearest giant Boulder completely splitting it in half
