Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 239 - The King's Chosen One



"I'll kill you..." John muttered 

It was just for a moment, but the boy felt a shiver go past his spine. Not because of John's threat, but because of the presence within his words. 

For just a single moment, the boy could feel a different presence aside from John's and it was that of the man he feared. 

"The king..." He muttered 

Just as he said that, the magic circle had finished it's activation, and the ground beneath John quickly broke down. Causing the floor and everything in the room, including John and Serena to drop into a dark abyss which had formed beneath them 

As The two began to fall into the abyss, John got under the crystal where Serena was trapped inside, before holding it above his head. 

Once it was balanced, they quickly stopped falling, before heading back up. 

However as this happened, the light which came from the top where they had originally fallen from, began to disappear as darkness began to cover it. 

John's only exit was slowly fading away, as he saw this, he knew he had to think of a quick way to get them out of whatever this place was. 

As he began to propel them up, John suddenly felt a chill go down his spine, so he quickly threw the Light Crystal as far up as he could, before tilting his body back. 

In that instant, he felt something go right past him before a cut on his cheek was formed. 

John quickly looked around and felt another attack coming, but he couldn't see it. The entire area where clouded in darkness, and the attack itself seemed to have been using the darkness as a coumaflage. 

Seeing this, John quickly shadow stepped up to where he had thrown the crystal, before catching it. 

And right as he did, he felt a surge of pain pass through his right leg. John quickly looked down on to see that a dark needle had pierced it 

"Kek..." 

John pulled out the dark needle only to feel his head start to spin, he felt dizzy and his eyes began to slowly shut. 

However, he braced it, and kept his eyes opened, before looking hastily looking around for another attack. 

Just as he did, first his right arm, and then his left leg. 

Needles past through them, causing them to go numb and lose their power. 

John now only held on to the Light Crystal with his left hand, his head was hung and he could feel his consciousness slowly seep away from him. 

"No... I can't... Not now..." John muttered as he continued to hold on to the Light Crystal 

[What's wrong...? Are you tired...? You can sleep and then I'll take over...] 

He was starting to lose control over his senses along with his focus, but it was then that he felt a barrage of attacks coming. 

With his remaining strength on his left arm, he threw the Light Crystal which Serena was entrapped in as far high as he could. 

The moment it was let off his hand, John activated modero, and in that instant, despite time having slowed down, before he could even shadow step away. 

*Pierce* *Pierce* *Pierce* 

Tens of needles pierced John all over his body. He managed to protect his head by reinforcing his arms to the max and covering his head with them, but around 5 more needles entered his stomach, arms and legs. 

"GAHH!!" 

The needles were so painful that he could feel his life being sucked away. 

John was so out of energy and tired that he couldn't think clearly, not just because of the needles but because of what was inside of him. 

Once the next batch of needles began heading towards him, John motionlessly watched the Light Crystal where Serena was contained within slowly dropped. 

It spun around slowly, allowing him to get a closer look at her. As she fell lower and lower into the darkness, he began to wonder if he was going to lose her again. 

"W...Wait..." John muttered 

His voice weak and lacking power, there was no way such a weak plea would have reached her ears. 

Just as she was about to be lost in the darkness, John was once again reminded of just how much she meant to him. This entire past week he had been driven by anger, sorrow and depression. 

But now, for just this moment, all he wanted was to get her back, more than anything in the world. 

[Don't... Don't leave me again...] John thought to himself 

"Stop..." 

----------------------- 

"Y-Young master, have you dealt with that brat?" The scientist asked as he peaked into the room from the outside. 

The door had been slashed to bits, there were holes on the walls and lastly there was a large dark shadow covering the floor in the room, furthermore, all of his drawers and tables with tools and contents were gone. 

Seeing this, the man began to panic as he rushed into the room, looking for his things. 

"Young master? Where is everything?" He asked in a hurry as he looked around. 

The young boy simply turned to the area where the man had come from, before walking towards it. 

"I'll call the others to clean this up, I've dealt with the boy." 

Hearing this, the man hastily looked around before quickly looking at the boy and letting out a sigh 

"Understood... Ah, what about the girl?" 

"I got rid of her along with him." Said the young boy as he took a step outside the room. 

Hearing this, the man's eyes widened as he stared at the young master. 

"B-b-but that was supposed to be the start of a revolution... And what about the k-king?" 

The young boy glared at the man before disappearing and appearing right in front of him. Seeing this, the man subconsciously backed away in fear, but right as he did, the boy grabbed on to his sleeve, pulling him in closer. 

"Never, ever, say that without my permission, again." Said the boy as he stared straight at the man's eyes 

The man gulped down the little saliva he had in fear, and could feel his throat dry up as he quickly responded with a broken voice 

"Y-y-y-y-yes... O-o-of c-course." 

Hearing that, the boy let go of the man before heading back in the direction he came from. 

"The king will have to find a new vessel." Said the boy as he walked out of the room. 

As he walked through the hallways, his hair which had grown longer and had been glowing a dark radiant black, slowly began to return to normal, along with the dark gloves and shoes which had formed over his hand. 

But before it could fully return back to normal, the boy stopped and his eyes widened. He slowly turned his head with a confused look. 

*BANG!* 

The loud sound of the bang resounded through the room where the boy had just left, following that, the sound of a scream could be heard as the man flew out of the room. 

Without moving the boy watched as John took a step outside of the room, with the Magic crystal with serena inside, beside him. 

"What?" The boy asked as he stared at John 

His hair was longer than before, it now reached his shoulders, but it didn't glow like the young boy's. What stood out from John however, was his bright glowing yellow eyes. 

The boy couldn't understand how John had survived such a situation, with the girl no less. 

"You... It appears it wasn't a coincidence that the king chose you." Said the young boy 

Ignoring the boy, John put Serena's Light Crystal on the ground in the halls, before walking towards him. 

The boy was annoyed at John for having ignored him again, however, at the same time, he had a strange feeling of fear in his chest. 

"Hahaha... Interesting, you think the results will change because you grew some hair?" The boy asked as he also walked towards John. 

Without replying, John stopped walking and raised his hand. 

Seeing this, the boy's shadow extended throughout the entire hall, covering every light source in the process. 

However, Serena's Light Crystal still made things quite bright and easy to see. On top of that, the shadow wouldn't cover the area around her. 

John lowered his hand as he muttered 

"Attract." 

Suddenly, the boy could feel himself being pulled by a mysterious force, towards John. The pull was strong moving him closer and closer with each passing second, despite his legs being stiff and balanced on the floor. 

Without moving, John remained in the same position, and as the boy got closer, he suddenly vanished before shadow spikes from all around the area went straight at John. 

The ceilings, the floor, everywhere, all aiming straight at John. On top of that, two magic circles were formed both in front and behind John as they were about to hit him. 

John let out a sigh as he muttered 

"Cancel, and stop."
