I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 5 Magic Match: First Round 12
Previous Story:
The Shadow Team chose to escape, so the expected fight did not happen.
They found a field to rest on, Nothing happened while they were overnight so they continued their journey smoothly the next day.
They made it through the mountains and passed through the last swamp. Their journey this time around was not as smooth as before as they met the opposing team, the Death Magic Team.
The opposing team throws a mana bomb without any cue and signs of a fight begin.
***
Thinking the opposing team had so many bombs, made me think "How could they produce so many bombs? Isn't pulling mana from the human body very limited and takes time?"
But this is just my guess okay
They may have only one bomb.
When the explosion ended, I immediately raised myself to the surface.
The land that was previously filled with huge trees was now flattened to the ground. All the trees were smashed into pieces and turned to ashes.
I looked around and found Robert slowly descending from above the sky. It looked like Robert was flying to avoid the attack. I also saw Charlotte beside him. Then in a slightly dusty area I saw Jean and Hans in a transparent golden sphere.it seemed that the two men were using protective magic tools.
"Curtain!" one of the black robes in front of us snorted unhappily.
"Nobody was hurt. Waste my energy" said the others complaining.
"Stupid" Robert sneered briefly. "Truly sneaky"
The team from Death Magic instantly fell silent. Even though we couldn't see them because their faces were covered in hoods, I knew they were a little offended by Robert's words.
I actually disagree with Robert's statement. How can he say that the opposing team is acting sneaky, even though he also wants us to do other sneaky things. It is attacking when the opposing team has fought before.
The five people in black robes moved and gathered.
One of them, it looks like the team leader moved forward a few steps and looked at us
"Team from the Magic Tower...Really interesting. But how can you have that kind of confidence? A bunch of fools"
"You fools" Robert replied directly.
Irritated veins emerged from the head of the Kemarian Magic team. "It's really arrogant" he said furiously.
"Hmmm...would you like to take out another bomb? Let's get it out quick. Even if it's pretty pointless. Rather than you wasting that good stuff, just give it to me okay?" robert is provoking.
"...."
They're speechless.
The opposing team leader threw something again.
Geez! They really have a lot of stockpiles of mana bombs!
Robert flew upwards at lightning speed with Charlotte. I followed them too. Don't forget I brought Jean and Hans with the wind. Looks like their protectors are on the verge of a boundary. It might not be able to withstand the second attack.
The black round thing flew and touched the ground.
But the explosion we expected did not happen.
Ting, Ting, Ting
The strange thing was just bouncing a little on the ground.
Just to scare us?
What the fuck?
"Fuhahaha" I can hear the sound of laughter coming out of them.
"really funny. They run like dogs to avoid hahahaha attacks"
Robert's eyes narrowed. Looks like he's getting upset.
We started to get down. But suddenly the black sphere shook and a light spread around us. But it was not an explosion but rather a dazzling enough light. The light spread out and slowly filled the entire swamp.
But slowly the light disappeared and nothing happened.
Eh? What the hell's going on? Nothing happened.
But the expression of the opposing team cannot calm us down. We could hear their voices. They seem to be laughing. What are they planning?
"..."
Robert did not respond. But he seems to be getting upset. Those people managed to trigger Robert's emotions and provoke his anger.
Robert moved his hand, preparing to cast his magic. But suddenly something strange happened. Something unknown reacts with Robert's magic. Robert's magic disappeared. Then a transparent gray-colored barrier began to appear and surrounded the entire swamp.
Uhhh! It looks the same as the barrier that locked us away before. So it was all them?
That dark element magic came from a magic tool apparently. But it seemed that this barrier was different from the previous one because something strange happened.
The moment Robert was about to use his magic, a dark-colored fog instantly entered his chest. Robert's heart was racing and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Jean and Hans also try their luck to use magic. But their fate still ends like Robert.
"My points are reduced." said Jean.
It seemed as if the dark elements were suppressing their magic so that whichever one they wanted to cast out, remained within their bodies and exploded within the body.
This system is a little different from the magic circle we find in the swamp even though it both has dark elements. The magic tool this time makes us unable to use mana.
They did not find any dark magicians within the Death Magic Team. But they found an awful lot of magic tools that used dark elements.
The opposing team smiled happily. They're very excited. They also began their attacks.
We are still confused, why does the effect we feel has no effect on the opposing team? they could still use their magic at will without receiving any damage. Do they have any other magic tools as protectors?
We can't use magic. We also could not counterattack. We can only dodge and use magic tools to create shields. As a result, the points in our Team are reduced a lot because they have to use magic tools and also get attacked.
Hans and Jean's points were reduced to under 100. Robert and Charlotte dropped 20 points.
Actually I was prepared my points would be reduced, but why did nothing happen to me? Even though I didn't use magic tools, I should have suffered damage because of that magic tool right? But when I double-checked my points, it didn't decrease at all. I also did not feel anything attacking my body.
Eh? Waitie? Doesn't that mean I can use magic without damage? Should I try it?
I tried to cast fire magic. But my mana doesn't want to come out, like someone's sealing it from the inside.
Ehhhhh? I'm really confused. What the hell's going on? Why is my reaction a little different to the others? The moment they used magic, the dark elements would suppress their mana and make their mana explode inside the body. But a different reaction happened to me. When I use magic, my man is stuck from the inside and won't come out. The advantage is that I don't receive any damage. Is this because I have dark spots in my body, so all those effects have no effect on me?
Suddenly a dazzling light shot out from behind and pointed upwards. I saw Charlotte cast light magic while spitting out a mouthful of blood. The girl forced herself to use magic and endanger herself.
But the magic is quite effective. The light magic climbed upwards and crashed into the barrier. The barrier shook as light magic hit him. Looks like we can break this barrier with light magic!
