Chapter 296 296 – Explosion

Now floating in the air, the director was shocked that such a thing even happened in the first place as he completely copied Aiden.

‘How can he fly, he doesn’t know magic at that well,’ David, the director, thought as he literally couldn’t make sense of such a thing happening.

It made no sense for Aiden to be able to do such a thing when it required a deep understanding of mana and magic in general and from what David, the director, had seen Aiden didn’t possess those at all.

However, what the director ignored was that Aiden wasn’t like him, he had access to Qi, an energy that the old man probably didn’t even know of since all there was in this world was magic.

“How are you flying?” David asked, not caring about the sparring anymore.

There were simply too many things that were shocking him at the moment and he needed to know every single one of them, he just had to.

When asked that question, Aiden simply ignored David as he couldn’t bother answering when he was in such a tense fight.

If that man wanted to know something he would know after the fight, not in-between. Aiden had to focus after all.

‘He’s not answering me? Um, should I make him understand who’s the boss here?’ David thought as he summoned a large quantity of mana from his core inside his body.

He wasn’t sure how much he needed but he would make sure that the person in front of him would have some difficulty dodging that attack.

He wouldn’t make the same mistake as earlier, giving him a little warning by missing on purpose his spell.

This time, David was serious, he wanted to end this fight as soon as possible because too many questions were currently popping into his mind one after another.

‘What’s this?’ Aiden thought as he could see the amount of mana that the director was summoning inside his body.

That was one of the benefits of the Eyes of Truth that Aiden had gotten before taking on this trial.

And from what he had seen this skill was completely ridiculous because he helped him learn many different skills that he had honestly never heard about before.

‘Whatever, who cares?’ Aiden thought as he flew at full speed with his dagger in his hands.

He would make sure that this fight would end right now.

The only problem with his approach was that [Veil of Darkness] had deactivated because of Aiden’s lack of mana, however, that wouldn’t have much of an impact if David didn’t form a portal.

‘Let’s just hope that he doesn’t… let’s just hope that he thinks I have figured out how to bypass his skill,’ Aiden thought, praying to himself that this attack would work.

Then, as Aiden flew at full speed toward David, a huge explosion appeared right on him.

‘How did this thing get here?’ Aiden thought panicked as he tried flying to the right, hoping that the little black sphere wouldn’t touch him.

However, as soon as he moved out of the way of that sphere, it started following him around as if it were a guided missile from Earth.

‘Just what is that little thing? Does he really have a spell like that?’ Aiden thought, confused as to how such a thing was even possible in the first place.

“Do you like it? Don’t worry it will keep following you around until it reaches you!” David shouted as he knew that Aiden would have difficulty hearing him with how fast he was going.

‘Well, this fight is pretty much over, huh?’ David thought as he knew that there was no way that Aiden would resist that black sphere which contained a lot of mana.

If it were to explode, then he would probably injure Aiden quite intensively.

“Do you want to give up? I can dismiss that spell if you want, that way you won’t get hurt!”

Aiden, however, didn’t say a single word as he kept flying around trying to find a plan to get out of this situation which was literal hell at the moment.

‘Fuck you, like hell I’ll give up… wait I got an idea what if I make this whole thing a draw?’ Aiden thought as he completely changed the trajectory.

He wasn’t trying to run away anymore, he would be going for him. He didn’t care if that ball were to explode and injure, he wouldn’t care for as long as it blew up with him still in its radius.

‘Yes, that’s going to work,’ Aiden thought in his mind, convinced.

He would have liked to come up with something better, but it seemed that it wasn’t possible at all because of the situation he was in.

David who was watching Aiden flying around without any purpose, flew back down as he sat down, wondering when his disciple was going to give up.

Because in his mind, there was simply no way that Aiden would find a way out of this situation.

He also didn’t want to attack him with another spell since it would risk injuring Aiden greatly.

That’s why he decided to sit down and wait patiently for this whole thing to end.

However, contrary to his expectations, he stopped paying attention. Aiden had found a way to change things around.

It seemed that the director had forgotten about what he had said at the very start of this fight.

If he stopped paying attention for even a second to Aiden, then he would be the one in danger.

This was something that the director was going to remember his whole life.

When facing an assassin, you can’t look away or you will lose your life.

‘Come on, come on, a little bit more,’ Aiden thought as he was about to crash into the director, condemning him to the same fate.

*BOOM*

‘I did it!’ Aiden celebrated in his mind, as he felt the wave of Space Mana, injuring him on many levels.

However, he didn’t release the slightest noise, like all good assassins, he decided to endure.
