Reborn as the Genius Son of the Richest Family

Chapter 486: Poison ball

They couldn’t believe what they saw. Python’s weapon was completely shattered, while Michael remained unharmed.

“What happened?!” Uncle Jack complained. “Why did you bring a faulty weapon?!”

Python looked at the ends of his own nunchucks, an expression of bewilderment flashing across his face. He knew his weapon was in its best shape. And yet it was destroyed all the same.

He saw it clearly. Before the nunchucks hit Michael, an invisible force counteracted the force of his lunge and completely repelled the attack.

But it wasn’t just that. Coming in contact with the invisible shield somehow deteriorated the quality of his nunchucks before it eventually shattered into a million pieces.

Python looked at Michael with a lot more caution now. He thought that the boy was an easy target. But as it turned out, he had an incredibly complex and powerful defensive system that protected him. No wonder Michael looked so confident in accepting the duel.

Seeing as melee attacks were of no use, Python stepped back and put some distance between him and Michael.

“That’s fine. Use your abilities as an assassin! Battle him from all sides” Uncle Jack shouted, still optimistic.

Python stopped backing away and began running around in circles around Michael.

Soon, his body began to blur and blend with the surroundings. It wasn’t long before he completely disappeared and became one with the environment.

“HAHAHA! See if you catch him now,” Uncle Jack goaded. “His skill allows him to shoot incredibly powerful shots of magic at a distance. You won’t even know where the shot will be coming from!”

Michael continued to stay in place, until finally, he grabbed the air in front of him.

“URGH!”

The sound of groans echoed out into the grasslands. A second later, Python’s invisibility powered off and revealed him to be behind Michael this whole time!

Not only that, but he had a knife in his hands and was just a second away from piercing it in Michael’s back.

As it turned out, Uncle Jack lied to misdirect Michael from how Python was going to attack. But somehow, Michael was still able to figure out the truth.

“WHAT?! How did he see that?!”

Python’s invisibility was supposed to be top-notch. It was a 6-star realm spell, which meant that even experienced wizards would find it hard to find Python before he was able to put a knife on their back.

This worked numerous times before, and with people that were much stronger than Michael.

It didn’t make sense how he found out.

But that wasn’t even the most surprising part. After all, Michael wasn’t even touching Python. He simply grabbed the air, and somehow, this force was transferred over to Python who was behind him.

“Stealth magic is still magic,” Michael muttered. “It’s like using a flashlight to hide in the darkness.”

With his Supreme Skill, no kind of magic could hide from his eyes. It was easy to see the Light mana emanating from Python’s body, allowing him to see through his stealth from the very beginning.

And since Python’s body was covered in stealth magic, it was easy for Michael to take control of them and strangle Python with his own mana.

“KURGH!”

Python struggled to break free. He tried to use mana to get out, but this only strengthened Michael’s hold on his body.

Eventually, Uncle Jack had enough and took matters into his own hand.

FWIIIPP!

He whistled again, and soon, four more guards appeared at his side. He pointed at Michael, and they immediately rushed towards him like they were attack dogs.

“That’s cheating!” Prince Harry complained.

“This isn’t an official duel, dear nephew. This is just to make sure that Michael is strong enough to fight someone like me. So, it’s perfectly legal for me to send in more men to fight him, hahahaha!”

Elizabeth gritted her teeth before impulsively going towards the automobile. She wanted to run the guards over. If Python could have help, then Michael could too.

But before she could move, Michael raised his hand and signalled for her to stop. He didn’t need help.

With four new guards rushing over to him with their nunchucks from all sides, he jumped up in the air and avoided their attacks.

Python finally had the leeway to escape from his grasp. He began coughing as he could finally breathe again.

“Come on. All five of you come,” Michael taunted them from above.

Seeing the clear disrespect, Python and the other guards created a coordinated attack. They moved in one line, slithering as they walked through the grass as if they were the body of a snake. Their nunchucks clicked and clacked, mimicking the noise of a rattlesnake.

A giant magic circle appeared beneath their feet. And soon, an image of a snake with its jaws wide open overlapped their line formation.

The giant snake hissed before the combined efforts of all five guards created a ball of poison that gathered at the tips of the snake’s fangs.

They locked on to Michael who was floating from above, and released the ball of poison in his direction.

This was a powerful 7-star spell that could destroy nearly anything it touched.

Seeing this poison come towards his way, Michael raised his hand and grabbed the air.

Suddenly, the poison stopped in its tracks.

Python and the other guards felt their connection to the giant poison ball snap, just like a string being cut by scissors.

They looked up, and saw that the 7-star spell they created, had now reversed its trajectory and came crashing back down towards their direction.

“He took control of the spell?!” Prince Harry shouted in disbelief.

Now matter how much he doubted it, the poison ball still shot towards the five guards at even faster speeds than when it left.

Forced to separate, their magic circle broke and the giant snake figure disappeared.

The poison ball splashed into their direction. They were fast enough to dodge most of the poison, but not fast enough to completely avoid it.

Their black uniforms and parts of their chest plates began to melt, with the poison eventually eating through to their skin and muscles.

And before they could even recover, they looked up at Michael.

They saw something incredulous—something completely out of the ordinary.

A ball of water appeared in front of Michael. Then, a ball of Fire appeared right next to it. Then, a ball of Earth, then a ball of Air.

Everyone’s eyes widened as they realized what they were seeing. Even Uncle Jack gasped at the sight that beheld in front of him.

Michael was controlling four elements at the same time!

The realization suddenly dawned on them.

Michael was the rumored genius of the Mystic Arts that had been circulating all over Metropolis!

But somehow, this wasn’t the end of Michael’s showcase of power.

He created another ball aside from the first four. And this time, it was made out of poison, the same one that the guards created.

And after that, he created a ball of lightning, which was just plasma and had the same appearance as that of the sun.

Two more spawned. One was made out of pure Light and the other ws made out of pure Darkness.

This time, they couldn’t express their shock well enough.

Michael controlled all eight elements.
