"Take cover!" John exclaimed as he was sure that the two massive fireballs crashing into one another will result in a deadly explosion that will hurt them badly, if not severely.
As soon as he said those words, the participants nearby him either turned around to run away, used their ability to create a shield in a hurry, leaned down on the ground, or stood stiff unable to respond to the situation correctly.
However, out of them all, only Varth stood out the most as his posture remained straight like a high royal, and not even a single trace of worry or anxiety could be seen on his face.
The spectators noticed that this wasn't a pretense. He was just that calm as if he was sure that the aftershock of the explosion won't be able to even damage a single hair strand on his head full of hair.
'I guess it's time for me to enter the limelight.'
In an instant, the darkness cladding the body of Varth Hollow receded to reveal a marvelous skin-tight black battle suit. The suit perfectly outlined his toned and muscular body that leans heavily on the slim side of the average scale. The battle suit represented the beacon of light in the darkest of places and exposed the shoulders and mid-arm regions of Varth's body. One could see two triangular-shaped holes protruding out of the forearm section of his battle suit. These holes were called magic technique slots where a magic crystal or mana crystal could be inserted to activate a magic technique.
Without any hesitation, Varth inserted an average-sized magic power crystal with 1000 units of magic power into one of the slots.
'Convert all of the magic power in the magic crystal into a barrier! Protect me and my friends!' Varth mentally passed his command to the Galactic Analysation System linked to his mind.
‹Affirmative!›
‹ The magic power contained inside the magic power crystal has been channeled into a Grade-1 Protective Barrier ›
In the split of a second, the magic crystal inserted into the magic technique slot thinned down to nothing, and all the magic power obtained from the crystal was channeled into a blue barrier that manifested around him, Leilani, and John.
‹ A strong Barrier has been erected around you and your friends ›
At that very moment, Leilani's summoned fireball intercepted Felix's attack.
Boom! Along with a resounding reverberation that tugged on the hearts of the participants, the explosion also generated furious and hot winds. As the wind began billowing, it reddened the skins and enticed a painful moan to come out of the mouths of some of the participants when it blew against their skin.
An enormous crater could be seen on the ground in the place where the explosion took place.
The intensity of that attack caused a slight, lightning-element wind as an aftermath.
However, not even a single strand of hair on the head of Varth, John, and Leilani was touched by the furious blast as all the damage was blocked by the barrier created by Varth in the split of a second.
Meanwhile, the three instructors, faculty members, and the healers looked at Varth with an expression of bewilderment. What the hell? How did he get his hands on a battle suit?
The battle suit was recently created a few months ago through reverse-engineering the technology obtained from the neutral crystal race. It was a wonderful technology that could channel the magic power of higher grade energy into a magic technique such as barrier and so on. It could even shot out elemental energy blast as long as it was provided with a suitable elemental energy.
"A battle suit, huh. This product still hasn't made its way to the market, but he already owns one. This youngster from the Great Royal Hollow family is interesting!" Theodore exclaimed as he looked at Varth with an amiable stare.
A few moments later, John looked at Varth with a grateful expression and said, "Thanks for helping us."
"No problem. Actually, I am sorry as I am part of the reason why he is blocking us all. If it wasn't for me, you guys wouldn't be embroiled in this troublesome situation." Varth replied indicating that he was in the wrong and that his wrong.
"Honestly, he would have attacked us anyway," Leilani replied.
"His regeneration is quite high and he will recover soon as he carries the royal blood of the Walken family. So, while he is still injured, let's take care of him," Varth said after a moment.
"Sure, I don't mind teaming up with you," Leilani said.
"Me too. There's no way I am gonna let you fight a raging monster like him without me!" John was worried about his sister. So, he decided to fight alongside her without any hesitation.
"I will support you guys!" A participant that had enough of Felix's arrogant rampage said as he stepped closer to the three of them. "I have the ability to buff others stats for a few minutes. At most I can buff the stats of three peoples for five minutes. However, I believe that five minutes will be enough to defeat him."
"We will do the same!"
A few other participants that possessed abilities that increased the strength of others also decided to help them in their fight against Felix.
"Great!" Varth exclaimed as a thoughtful glitter flashed in his right eye. "I will draw his attention. Leilani and John attack him simultaneously from the sides. The rest of you provide us with physical body strengthening and defensive buffs. If someone possesses the ability to increase speed, use it on me. Lastly, don't use your offensive abilities if there's a chance that you will accidentally hit us." Varth instructed as he inserted a magic power crystal into one of the two triangular magic technique slots.
"Nero, materialize Demonized Silva!"
Nero was the name of Varth's Galactic Analysation System
‹Affirmative!›
‹ The magic power contained inside the magic power crystal has been channeled into a Grade-1 Energy Blade ›
In the split of a second, a massive amount of magic power burst forth from the black glove with a silver crystal pattern worn on his right hand and condensed to create a blue and black multi-colored energy blade made out of magic power.
‹ A grade-1 energy blade has been manifested. It will last for around ten minutes ›
The students looked at the blade held in his hand, and their eyes showed deep interest and awe as they thought that it's cool.
"Let's begin!" Varth exclaimed.
Following his instructions, the participants used their ability to buff him, Leilani, and John.
‹ Your Strength has been increased by 15 points ›
‹ Your speed has doubled ›
‹ A golden barrier has been used on you. You're protected from every incoming damage ›
As soon as the participants buffed them in order to defeat Felix, the three of them split off in three different directions as began rushing at Felix. Varth rushed in a straight direction with demonized Silva held in his right hand as Leilani and John rushed at Felix from the sides.
A moment later, the three of them clashed. Immediately after, Felix enjoyed a brutal shower of powerful punches, energy sword slashes, and icy kicks.
