The Mysterious Black Magician

Chapter 19 - The Real Reason



While the others were thinking that Yman was out of breath trying to escape from the two mini golems chasing after him, Kiko on the other hand, doubted what that person was trying to do.

Why was he sneering at them while being chased?

Kiko's face twitched when a sudden realization came into his mind, he shouted immediately to his friends to shoot that guy. Although everyone was doubting him because their mana was almost dry, they followed him anyway.

Generating the last drop of their mana, two of them managed to cast a spell and shoot towards Yman.

When Yman noticed the incoming magic attacks. He wanted to laugh. Water Blades in the air and Ice Spike from the ground, these two attacks were fast approaching him. He was too envious of their magic.

The spectators were dumbfounded of why those guys were attacking that laughing stock trainee. Even the instructors knitted their brows.. But they had guessed that that person might be trying to do something again. Like what he did to the other trainee a while ago.

They could not sum up that person as to why he was doing these dirty tricks. Even though he was weak. Or should they say 'the weakest among all the trainees'? He doesn't even have mana, to begin with, yet he was trying to do bad things to others.

'Disgusting!!!' Their thoughts. Even the other instructors thought the same and shook their heads. For them, that guy was not fit to be trained by them.

Instructor Goki knitted his brows upon seeing the battle. Many trainees shouted to give up one after another. He was quite dissatisfied that only a few of the trainees managed to succeed. And yet there was one person who was playing on the battlefield.

Even though what he did was outrageous, instructor Goki was quite curious about this person. Because not all magicians were able to act calm in the face of the enemy. Yet, that person had the guts to play on the battlefield and do dirty tricks to his fellow trainee! That's unbelievable!

"That person is just too shameful!" Kesha commented.

Beside her, Almina was just silent. She knows that person very well. He was not the type to hurt someone. But...why did it seem he was planning something bad for the group of trainees ahead of him?

Watching them from a distance, anyone could tell that Yman was trying to lure those two mini golems to the group of Kiko. But Almina still believes in that person.

Even Mai and the others could guess what he was planning to do. Since he already did the same thing to the other trainee.

Bob and Chloe knew the reason why Yman tricked the person a while ago, that guy did something bad to him this morning. But what about those groups of trainees? Everyone had questions in their minds.

Seeing the incoming attacks, he felt a little nervous, but Yman timed his Rapid Leap perfectly.

He was able to leap on his left and avoided the attacks. Because of his sudden leap the attacks missed the target and continued towards the two golems.

On the other hand, Kiko was distracted and his skill stopped its effect and now he was currently contesting with the mini golem in front of him. He was furious at that guy. Because of that guy, he could not show off his skill to that pretty girl Almina.

It was supposed to be his chance! However, that guy showed up while luring the other mini golems to them.

Kiko's brows greeted each other, at the same time he gritted his teeth so hard that it made a creaking noise.

"I will fucking kill that frogman..." he was cursing while trying to push back the hand-blade of mini golem through his sword.

He was mad that even the pulse on his face down to his neck was visible.

Yman evaded the Water Blades and Ice Spike, the two magic attacks flew towards the two mini golems chasing after him.

The other one suddenly froze when hit by the Ice Spike. The second one was hit by Water Blades, but not much damage was visible, only a slight scratch on its body. Both of the mini golems health points were at 90% at most.

Since the attacks dealt with higher damage than Yman's attack. The aggro has been stolen by the group of Kiko. And now the mini golem's eyes glowed in red while facing their direction.

Seeing this, Yman chuckled while switching his course.

Nevertheless, one of the golems was still in a frozen effect and couldn't move. The other one threw a boulder at Kiko's group.

"Shit! Damn, you fucking toadman!" Marco shouted at Yman. But the person he shouted was already running towards the cliff edge.

Looking at the new enemies Bruno wanted to run in fear, "K-Kiko dude, l-lets give up!" He suggested.

'G-Give up? Give up in front of that pretty girl Almina? Why the fuck I would do that?!' Kiko's pride could not let him give up. He had still mana left. But his friends already dried their mana.

He was thinking about what to do. To redeem himself. He could not let that guy look down on him. He would kill these monsters then he would kill that guy next.

GYAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

Kiko screamed with all his might. Massive mana bursting from his body. It then covers all over his body like a skin of mana to protect himself.

The name of the spell was Mana Membrane. It reduces the incoming physical and magical attack by 50%.

"Whaaaa! Look at that guy!" A trainee pointed to Kiko.

"Cool! He already mastered his 3rd skill."

Exclaimed by another person.

"Wow! What kind of magic is that?!"

A girl questioned.

"Dummy, that is called Mana Membrane. A defensive spell." Answered the person beside her.

"Mina! Mina! Look! That person is using his 3rd skill already. Such a genius!" Kesha's eyes lit up.

"Mhm." She nodded while glancing at the mana covering that person's body.

"I- Is that awesome?" Bob asked.

"Of course, as a trainee, we can only master 2, but that person already mastered three skills. The first skill he used is an attack with a bash effect, second is the Earth-Crushing Technique which lost the effect when Yman intervened. And the third is that protective spell. He already had a good set of abilities with him. Such talent!" Even Mai exclaimed while nodding her head.

"Tsk!" Brai clicked his tongue in annoyance.

The instructors were quite amused by Kiko's talent. They were watching him while nodding their heads. And each of them was thinking about how to further develop this person.

The mini golem's bash effect on their Boulder Throws no longer effective against the Mana Membrane ability of Kiko. It has an Anti-Bash and Anti-Stun effect. And all damage coming to him greatly decreases. Everyone was watching with awe at him.

Yman was so envious when he took a glance. He was wondering why all luck was in that person. What about him?! Almost all of the good things he wishes for were already with that person!

"Well, he doesn't have a cute sister!" He shouted while trying to distract himself from jealousy he felt. The unfairness of the world. He ran quickly towards another mini golem who lost their target. Now no one even glanced at him anymore. They forgot he exists.

Kiko slashing the enemy, brandishing his sword from left to right. The three mini golems health points started to decrease little by little. His friends were already lying on the ground gasping for breath. He was the only one remaining standing in their group.

"K-Kiko dude, d-don't let that toadman mock on us..."

His men watched him while cheering inwardly.

Shing!

-50 hp, a red text appeared in Kiko's vision.

GOORRRRrrrrr!!! One of the golems died while wailing in agony.

"Fufu, t-that is awesome, he was fighting three at the same time, yet, he managed to kill one and wounded the other two," the woman instructor commented.

"Mhm. That kid had a bright future ahead," instructor Goki followed up.

Kiko smirk.

"Haha. Do you think you can make me surrender the fight, huh?! What are you now? Frog!" Kiko screamed, but when he glanced at the back, he saw that guy running towards him again. Chased by three mini golems?!

Kiko's eyes went bloodshot as veins surfacing on it. His face was twitching as he shouted, "are you fucking kidding meeeeee!!!"

Yman rapidly runs towards that guy while being tailed by three new mini golems.

"Hehe. So what if you are talented. So what if you are a genius in magic. So what if you are loved by heavens. You can have all the luck on earth. I even help you. Here is the proof of my heeeeelp!!!" He yelled in his thoughts.

Yman passed by on Kiko with a smug, before he used his Rapid Leap skill again to lose the trail of the three mini golems.

Because of this, the golems suddenly stopped their pursuit. The aggro was gone after Yman left them at a specific distance.

The mini golems were looking for the new target. And the one nearest at them was no other than that person with mana coating around his body and currently fighting some of their kind.

The golem's eyes suddenly glowed in red as they pounced their massive body towards Kiko.

Kiko wanted to cry. Even the spectators watching the scene were dumbfounded. What kind of horror was this? Everyone's thought. Only the random gulping sounds were discernible at the moment.

Yet another batch came again. That specific person luring another batch of mini golems chasing after him. Everyone already guessed what he was planning, they only wished that that talented guy would give up. He was surrounded already. And yet, that person keeps bringing more monsters towards him. Because of his Rapid Leap, he could easily lose the trail of these not too fast golems.

Truly, this was what Yman meant when he asked the instructors if he could attack several monsters at the same time. Of course, it was not for him. But for that guy that he hated.

Yman chuckled inwardly.

Bob and the others, laughed at the sight. They could not believe that this person had such a way of thinking.

Mina chuckled at Yman's silly behavior but she found it adorable for some reason.

The instructors wished for that guy to give up. That other person was just too absurd with his tricks.
