Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 174 - Brink Of Despair



He didn\'t make it in time, the spear was swung straight down, and passed through the Area where Master Sylvia\'s head had been, however, right before it cut through it, Master Sylvia vanished 

She shadow stepped away towards the edge. But even with this, John didn\'t feel relieved. She was heavily wounded and needed healing. 

Instead of the girl attacking John, she prioritised Master Sylvia and leapt straight at her 

Without waiting for the cooldown, he cast Fulgurationem again 

[Fulgurationem] 

As his hair rose, he began to rush towards Master Sylvia, he was slightly faster than the girl but she had a head-start 

But before she reached her, Master sylvia\'s eyes seemed to have lost life and she fell backwards from the Arena into the pit. 

Right before falling she fell, John saw a smile formed on his master\'s face, as if she was content or satisfied with how her life ended. She also seemed to have said something, but john couldn\'t hear it from where he was at. 

Seeing this, John dropped to his knees and stared at the before he muttered with a broken down voice 

"Mas...ter?" 

Tears began to form in his eyes as he felt blooming a seething anger 

"Master…? You\'re… joking… right? Tell me this is all part of the plan… Tell me you\'re going to teleport back any second so i can heal you..." 

John tried casting deprehendre, but there was nothing. Master\'s presence was gone the moment she fell off. 

As he stared down at the neverending abyss, with anger displayed all over is his face, he began punching the floor over and over and over again in anger, his hand started to bleed and his vision was becoming blurry from all the tears 

"Damn it… Damn it… Damn it… IT\'S ALL MY FAULT!!" John shouted 

Serena 

Before he could punch the ground again, he suddenly felt a rush of pain through it and lost all sensations over it. It was as if there was something biting his arm from the inside out on the spot where it once was. 

As he looked over to see what had happened, he noticed that his arm was on the ground, half of it had been cut off his shoulder. 

Blood was madly pouring out of the wound and he was starting to feel lightheaded. 

But despite that, despite all the pain, he didn\'t let out a single cry of pain. The gush of blood began to slow down as air around him got darker and thinner 

John kept his head hung low as the girl stood beside him, before darkness began to cloud his eyes.

She had not only cut off his arm but now planned to finish him off, just like she did to master. When this thought came to mind, John lost control. 

As the girl swung her spear down to cut off his head, It suddenly stopped, right before it reached John\'s neck. It was stuck to something. 

confused as it wouldn\'t move past that certain point, no matter how much strength she added, she decided to retract it, only then did she noticed what it had gotten stuck to. It was something dark which was formed in the air, it had no shape, it was as if the air itself had gotten hard.

"It\'s my fault… That\'s why…" 

With his head hung down, John slowly rose up, as he raised his face, she could see it. Cold, lifeless, hollow eyes which was filled to the brim with darkness. 

The air around them got heavier, so heavy that the ground began to crack. 

John\'s hair turned a pure pitch-black colour as dark magic began to ooze out of him. Blood stopped coming out of the wound along with a little bit of steam 

Suddenly, he vanished without so much of a hint. 

He reappeared behind the girl with only 1 dagger on his remaining arm, his expression was emotionless and calm. 

As he swung his left-hand dagger, the girl out sped him as she turned and swung her spear head at him, but when she did, John was no longer there, 

She then felt her legs get swiped and as she looked down, she saw John beneath her. He had kicked her legs to throw her off balance 

However, unlike last time, it didn\'t work this time, she ended up jumping in to the air, right before she fell, but that was John\'s aim 

Now that she was in the air, she wouldn\'t be able to escape his attack 

A large dark cube was formed trapping the two inside, she tried to proprel herself out, but didn\'t make it in time. 

Despite there being darkness everywhere, she could see John clearly. 

He shadows stepped above her with a one-handed diagonal swing in motion aimed straight at her head. His dagger was glowing a dark colour unlike the usual purple 

Having seen through the attack, she thrust her spear into the air, but hit nothing and instead 

*Stab* 

She was pierced in her stomach, By a large and pointy Dark Spike which came out of the dark. It went through the gaps in her armour and pierced straight through her 

Seeing as how she was in dangerous position, she tried to find a way out, but had no luck 

*Stab* *Stab* *Stab* 

Slowly, more and more parts, all over her body were pierced. By dark spikes being formed in the all-around her in the dark 

First Her legs and then her arms, one by one they were being pierced all over. She couldn\'t so much as move, she was now In John\'s territory 

"tenebris inferos" Said John as he quietly rose from the cube\'s floor a few feet behind her Trans: Dark Hell

As the Dark Spike was about to pierce straight through her heart, John leapt with a swing aimed at her head 

It was over, or so John thought 

"Level 4." 

A bright blinding glow came from the girl, following this, the darkness in the cube began to weaken and slowly disperse. 

John shadow stepped outside of the cube after grabbing on to his cut-off arm and watched from the outside as cracks began to appear and light began to flow 

It didn\'t take long for the cube to crack, and all that remained was a girl in the middle. 

Her body was riddled with holes due to John\'s attack, the big holes which you could see through, especially the one in her stomach was slowly starting to close up. 

John had missed her heart, not only because she had armour there but because she went up a level on the last second 

As John held on to his hand, he noticed the obvious change in her appearance after levelling up, she now had wings, pure white angel wings.
