Reincarnated as the Villainess's attendant

Chapter 261 – End Of Xeonith’s Route (part 6)

"I see, since you are a shadow magician you are similar to the darkness magician so you never realized that it could be done that way. You must have been wasting a lot of…"

"GGGHHRAAAAAGHHH! FORTRESS! FORTRESS! STONE ARMOR! YOU FUCKERS! I WILL KILL YOU BOTH! I WILL KILL YOU BOTH THEN I WILL GO AND FINISH OFF THAT COMMONER WHORE AND THE ESPINE BITCH TOO! WE'LL SE HOW WILL YOU LIKE THA…!"

Ludier raised his brow in realization and explained, momentarily easing up on the continuous spell, which allowed Xeonith to use up the rest of his mana on creating a castle-sized fortification made out of the dirt and tones that flew towards him right out of the reach of Zoemi's murky shadow and finished it of by actually turning the fortification into an enormous golem which could have been seen clearly from the Academy building.

The air around them quaked as if in the middle of a heatwave, creating the biggest air quake that Zoemi ever experienced.

Even if the teachers that remained in the Academy would stay behind guarding other students, when an earth spell that only someone like Xenith could pull off would show up, they simply HAD to send someone.

The tremors could be ignored – but not a spell of that size!

In his panicked desperate struggle to preserve his life, Xeonith had accidentally made the perfect move that could actually save him.

"Shut the fuck up, filth."

"…!"

…except that he followed it up with the worst possible mistake he could ever make – at the mention of the dark-haired girl getting hurt, the boy's eyes lost any trace of light and life that they carried…

In the same heartbeat that the monstrous fortress-sized golem raised from the ground, the murky shadow form down below raised up like an ocean's wave and crushed against it, swallowing it whole in a nightmarish twist.

"!!!"

Even Ludier had to take a step back, fearfully glancing at his feet where the murky shadow was spreading out – but to his great relief, it seemed like he could stay on top of it no problem.

After all, Zoemi didn't consider him an enemy at the moment…

"PU-GHUAGH…!"

When the wave of shadow subsided, the brown-haired boy showed up completely defenseless and in a state of mana depletion so severe that he couldn't even properly stand on his two feet and instantly fell on all fours, unable to even string a proper sentence together.

Still… even if he couldn't walk, he still tried to crawl away desperately pale as a ghost, glancing behind at the disgusted face of the black-haired boy glaring down at him like on the trash that he always was.

"…dear heavens… how are you able to stand after casting something so ridiculous…?"

Ludier gulped down his saliva, shaking his head glancing between the black-haired boy and the brown-haired boy.

"Hatred keeps me up."

Zoemi scoffed, shrugging his shoulders dismissively, lying as easily as he breathed.

His mana reservoir was not only larger than ever before – it was also completely full after converting all of Xeonith's mana into his own.

"GHAHA! Good – then let's finish this before we will get a company. Kid, do you mind me getting the last hit?"

"Be my guest – you wanted to kill him first after all."

Ludier laughed heartily and offered and Zoemi agreed without any objections.

After all, everything would work out fine as long as Xeonith would die from the ice spell – it didn't have to be Zoemi's…

…or rather it was essential to NOT have the black-haired boy deal the final blow…

"A kid respecting his elders, what a nice thing to see! Now then, with the two of you showing off spells like that even an old guy like myself feels the need to show off a bit. Here. My greatest spell – look carefully kid, you will be the first person to see this one and walk away to tell the tale!

Ludier nodded his head and turned to the Xeonith crawling away in an attempt to escape – even in the state of severe mana depletion he had enough brains in him to try and run towards the Aspaekony Academy.

|Ironic. If Aspakeony was here, she would most likely try to save him since he still is one of her students.|

Zoemi scoffed to himself and his face twisted in a grim smile.

"Behold! IMPALER!"

Ludier took moved his legs, getting a better foothold, and spread his arms apart while his voice boomed over the empty battlefield.

The next moment Zoemi felt that the air around him became unbearably dry to the point of being painful to breathe in as all the moisture got sucked in by the ice mana moved around by the transcended ice magician.

If the air quake caused by Xeonith creating a fortress-sized golem was like witnessing a heatwave, the air quake caused by Ludier's impaler spell was comparable only with suddenly being thrown underwater by a powerful torrent – which was pretty ironic considering the complete lack of moisture in its immediate surroundings at the moment.

Nonetheless, Ludier's spell was taking shape – a humongous ice spear which size dwarfed the trees back on the Academy's ground.

The spell itself created frost and ice just to break it apart and increase its already enormous volume.

"Now… Deriznos brat it's time – don't worry – I will send your father your way soon enough too! DIE!"

Ludier took a deep breath and roared – the spell launched with such might that the shockwave it caused almost toppled the ice magician that cast it, and would actually do that if the black-haired boy didn't stepped in and supported him.

Xeonith's death was inevitable, with no strength left and under severe mana depletion he simply had no way to escape, the impaler would pin him down like a pitiful bug…

"…!"

Or it should have – but the split second before the ice pierced the brown-haired boy ripping him apart a single black feather appeared out of the thin air right in the way of the gigantic spear, and the moment that the two met the feather exploded and expanded into a towering barrier that shielded Zoemi and Ludier form the Apsakeony Academy…

…the impaler was trembling in the same spot it was the moment its tip touched the feather as if it wanted to keep going forward, but the perfect silk-like darkness was stopping it right in its track…

"And what the FUCK is THIS supposed to be?!"

The ice magician who got himself in the light mana depletion state shouted furiously pointing out at the pitch-black barrier that ended up protecting the brown-haired boy.
