Chapter 52: Battle of Spell Casters IV

Translator: J_Squared  Editor: J_Squared

Wizard Jason did not die. Instead, he strode out of the hall step by step, glaring deadly at Merlin with a dark expression.

Merlin was also observing Wizard Jason. He noticed that a translucent light shield had surrounded Wizard Jason’s body. It kept absorbing Light Element from the outside.

“Spell Scroll? On top of that, it far exceeds First-level spell!” Merlin murmured in a low voice. He could sense that translucent light shield on Wizard Jason was also a spell. Moreover, it was a high-level spell. It was not something Wizard Jason could cast.

The only explanation for this was that Wizard Jason had a Spell Scroll on him. When Merlin had surprised him by casting Frost and Large Fireball, Wizard Jason felt that he was threatened, thus he took out the scroll and initiated the spell in the scroll.

After Wizard Jason strode out of the hall, he seemed to have heard Merlin’s murmur. He showed a hint of a smile as he said, “That’s right. I have a Spell Scroll with me. The spell in the scroll is a purely Defensive-type Second-level spell, Holy Light Ring. Lowly heretic, your plan did not work on me. Now it’s your turn. Receive your judgment!”

Merlin squinted his eyes. A thick white light appeared from Wizard Jason’s body. The raging Light Element was gathering, causing a sense of danger in Merlin’s heart.

He knew Wizard Jason was about to cast his First-level spell!

“Holy Light Adjudication!” as expected, Wizard Jason shouted while holding his palms together, as if he was praying.

As soon as his voice dropped, pillars of white light quickly formed and blotted out the sky. Glimmering white light seemed to have covered up the sun in the sky.

This was the First-level spell that had crushed all of old man Etha’s hope!

The spell had not formed itself completely. Merlin had already felt a large pressure on him. There was no wind before but along with the release of the spell “Holy Light Adjudication”, gusts of wind came straight at him, almost causing Merlin unable to open his eyes.

“First-level spell? Come at me!” Merlin yelled. His Mind Power stimulated the Spell Model in his Awareness in a frenzy.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.”

Balls of fire kept flying out of Merlin’s hands, trying to stop the large piece of white light but to no avail. Numerous fireballs were drowned by the white light, vanished forever.

In Merlin’s mind, he thought of the scene where old man Etha had cast Fireball to burn himself into ashes.

Maybe that showed how hopeless old man Etha was when he faced “Holy Light Adjudication”!

“Large Fireball!” Merlin yelled and cast Fireball in a frenzy. When the grey frame had turned red, he cast Large Fireball without hesitation.

The gigantic fireball appeared once more, but this time, Merlin was using Large Fireball to block Wizard Jason’s First-level spell!

“Boom!”

The gigantic fireball exploded again and the violent impact had caused “Holy Light Adjudication” to halt a little.

Merlin’s Fireball could be cast to nearly twenty times continuously. In such a life-and-death situation, he could not mind other things anymore. He simply cast Fireball without stopping. Regardless of normal Fireball or Large Fireball, he shot them at Wizard Jason crazily.

Outside of the castle, many nobles and knights were staring at the large piece of white screen in the sky and Merlin’s raindrops-like Fireball. They all seemed slightly pale. No matter if it was Wizard Jason’s spell or Merlin’s spell, it was not something any of them could defend against.

Those were two forces with chasm-like differences. They had shaken everyone’s heart!

“Merlin, hang on!” Old Wilson held his palm together. His muscular chest was heaving up and down, showing how nervous he was on the inside.

‘Young Master Merlin, please hang on!’ Young Yaguez was also rooting for Merlin in his heart.

Everyone knew that the battle of two strong Spell Casters had entered its most crucial stage!

“Boom!”

Finally, white light was ferociously blasted upon Merlin’s body like heavy hammers. The endless flames burning in the air were blocking the impact of holy light on Merlin.

Merlin felt an overwhelming brute force was pressed on his chest, then an unbearable pain exploded in his chest.

“Ka-chak.”

His bone was broken. Merlin finally could not hold on any longer. His body was blasted backward and fell to the ground.

“Hehe. I’ve blocked it still. What about First-level spell, huh?”

Merlin who fell to the ground supported himself with one hand and stood up in difficulty. Some of his ribs were broken by the great force, causing him a burning pain.

However, Merlin did not die. He had blocked Wizard Jason’s First-level spell. Even old man Etha had not achieved this.

Wizard Jason squinted his eyes. After seeing Merlin had stood up in shivers, his expression was calm and indifferent when he said, “Cunning heretic, you’re very lucky. You didn’t die but you won’t be so lucky next time!”

Wizard Jason planned to cast “Holy Light Adjudication” once again.

Merlin pressed the area where his ribs had broken lightly with his hands. This could lighten his pain slightly. The reason he did not die was that, other than the Large Fireball had blocked a part of the impact of “Holy Light Adjudication”, Merlin had a physical attribute that was comparable to a First-level Elemental Swordsman.

Strong physical attributes had allowed Merlin to bear a part of the shock given off by “Holy Light Adjudication”.

“Hehe. Wizard Jason, you have no more chance. Everything is over!”

Merlin looked at Wizard Jason who was about to cast a spell. His gaze faintly revealed a sign of madness.

“Large Frost!” Merlin shouted. Almost exhausting the last Magic Power in the Frost’s Spell Model, he had cast a Large Frost.

“Ka-chak, ka-chak.”

The effect of Large Frost was far greater than a normal Frost. Its binding ability was also remarkable. Even if Wizard Jason was prepared for that, he was still bound and would not be able to get out of it in a short amount of time.

However, Wizard Jason did not panic at all. He looked at the translucent light shield beside him. Since he was very confident with Second-level spell, Holy Light Ring, he simply sneered. “Hmph. Lowly heretic, stop the useless struggle. ‘Holy Light Ring’ is not something you can defeat.”

“Is it? ‘Holy Light Ring’ is the Second-level spell?”

Merlin’s mouth suddenly quirked into a strange smile. In front of his chest, an ancient-looking pendant had appeared since some time ago.

“Let’s see if it can block ten Large Fireballs.”

After he said that, Merlin’s Mind Power immediately initiated Bell Pendant. In an instant, ten gigantic fireballs that emitted terrifying, scorching heat flew toward Wizard Jason.
