Chapter 95 Mana Slash!

A few more days had passed, and everything was almost back to normal, perhaps it was because George told them the dangers that almost befell them, under the students' new desire for strength, a few more apprentice wizards had appeared

Sensing their progressive increase, George couldn't help but start believing his own words when he said every one of them might become wizards. Thinking of this, George could always be caught smiling weirdly by the students as he Imagined such a scene.

In the few days that had passed, excluding the influx of apprentice wizards, phase three had already been set into motion, as George and Alvin had begun taking regular patrols as both of them surveyed the surroundings in order to prevent any accident.

However this morning unlike before, while George and the others had started their daily activities, Elric stood in an open space with the wind fluttering against his hair

Standing with a black jacket draped over his shoulders, a white shirt, and black trousers, Elric held a stick in his one good arm as he began to use it to practise swordsmanship

"997"

"998"

"999"

"1000"

Wiping the sweat from his head, Elric gave a low growl as he swung his stick forward, each time exerting as much force as possible

"1001"

"1002"

Continuingly to count slowly, Elric concentrated all his effort on the stick as he made each stroke

*Boom!*

With the thousand and third stroke, a black coloured beam emitted from the tip of the stick, creating a five metres crack as soon as it made contact with the ground

Seeing this happen, Elric knew his plan was a success.

"Ouch!"

Unfortunately, before Elric could celebrate, a sharp pain suddenly ran through his good arm bringing him back to his senses. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m

Just now, the move Elric used was a weaker variant of 'Gods Javelin' he used against Ristarte

Back then, a day after waking up from the coma, Elric spent the whole day reviewing his fight with Ristarte, and this was one of the moves he deduced from it, 'mana slash!'

Unlike the Gods Javelin, where Elric had to sacrifice his entire arm to deliver the killing blow to Ristarte

This time, All Elric had to do was follow the same process of channelling mana through my arm to the object in his hand, and release it outwards when it reaches its climax

Unlucky for Elric, none of the two stages involved were easy

Firstly, once the mana being channelled through his arm was too much, his whole arm would be in danger of shattering again leaving him completely armless

And secondly, finding the climax point without the stick exploding was another troublesome aspect, as his practice kept on breaking the stick whenever he tried to fire

But now, seeing all his hard work bear fruition, Elric couldn't be in a happier mood

After hours of sword swinging, almost shattering his one good arm, and insufficient rest, Elric finally succeeding after many errors, smiled lightly knowing he was getting stronger

"Calm down Elric! Calm down!"

"Don't let it get you too excited, remember you're still as weak as an ant before Ristarte, or do you still plan on losing another arm!"

Scolding himself lightly, Elric kept on reminding himself not to get complacent, after all, there was still a long way to go compared to Ristarte, at least, this simple mana slash just now doesn't seem powerful enough to hurt him at all.

Sighing slightly, Elric shook his head and continued swinging

"6042"

"6043"

Soon, under Elric's passionate sword swings, time quickly passed, and before anyone could react, signs of setting had already begun to show on the sun

Looking up towards the sky and judging from the ting of orange in it, Elric vaguely estimated that the sun would completely set in around three hours, thinking of this, Elric decided to quickly practise a few more times before calling it a day

*Stab!*

*Parry!*

*Counter!*

*Dodge!*

With the continuous practising of his skills, Elric became more skillful with a sword, or in his case stick as various moves with he only saw online on the blue star were displayed by him without him realising it

"Haha, it seems I'm getting the hang of it!"

Feeling the fluidity in his moves, Elric couldn't help but feel slightly proud knowing his hard work was paying off

Unfortunately, before he could quickly go back to practice, a voice behind him suddenly interrupted him

"Young master, you're here!" Sounded a familiar voice behind him, turning his head Elric realised it was Alvin.

And Alvin sensing Elric's direction quickly walked to meet him

"Young master, we're back from the expedition, and I think it's alright to launch the attack now!"

Speaking of attacking, Alvin's hand trembled slightly as he missed the days of exploding things in the cave, thankfully with them soon launching the first attack, Alvin hoped he had an opportunity to go on an explosion spree again.

*Ahem!*

Sensing Alvin being lost in dreamland, Elric suddenly coughed trying to snap him out of it, luckily Alvin wasn't too deep in thought yet, and quickly woke up.

Hearing Elric's cough, Alvin realised what had just happened and couldn't help but give an awkward laugh as he tried to brush off the matter, thankfully no one seems to care too much

Soon, after a period of awkward silence passed, Alvin took out their map and journal explaining all the tribes, plants, beasts, and animals encountered during the period of his survey and patrol.

Now that phase three was about to start, it was up to Elric to read it, and decide which point would be best to attack first, in order not to find yourself in unforeseen accidents such as accidentally launching the attack from a spot where you're geographically at a disadvantage resulting I'm in the whole team almost being wiped out

Or accidentally entering a certain unrecorded beast's habitat resorting to serious injuries, to say the least.

All in all, now that the map had been done, and Elric was getting to read it, it seemed that phase three would be allowed to launch at any moment, and it seems that Elric knew that too. So when he collected the map, he turned and faced Alvin seriously

"Get ready Alvin! We're about to conquer a different world"

Saying that a fire seemed to burn in Elric's eyes as his hidden ambitions had begun to reveal themselves.
