I looked back to see a man with a dark complexion and long wavy hair dressed in all black with a glowing purple spear walk menacingly towards me.
My eyes were focused on the spear first. It wasn’t a spear of material. It was a mana construct.
We were taught in classes that mages who had such control over their mana, could sometimes construct objects by folding the mana and forging it into the space they exist in.
The spear this man held was a projection of his mana ,it hummed with absolute power.
As he walked towards me,I reminded myself who he was. This was vike john , a professor of combat in the academy. He was also one of the people heading this mission.
He walked towards me and paid no attention to the broken noble smashed in the ground.
“The technique you just displayed,what is it?”
I took a minute to register his question “ I call the technique blitz. it's a quick manoeuvre move,which focuses on a fast reaction by exploding the mana into my channels, pushing forward in a single strike…sir.”
He smiled. “Not bad. it could use some more refinement. On that note I have a proposal for you,so meet me in the conference room in an hour for a brief.” he said nothing else as he walked away. The crowd parted to let him pass.
I tried to think of all the possible reasons why he would want me for a brief. None of them were very good. Maybe this ‘simple’ spar had been a bad idea.
Suddenly I heard my name being shouted from the crowd. I looked over to see lily. She was smiling at me,and next to her were the closest friends I have, Jaden and caleb.
Lily ‘s blue eyes sparkled as she saw me approach them,and suddenly she looked pale.
Jaden and Caleb gasped and leaned forward to rush forward. I looked behind me, sensing something approaching.
A fireball bigger than me rushed at me,and the last thing I heard as it crashed into me and I blacked out,was Lily screaming my name.
