Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

Chapter 1095 Hurt

ARRGGHH!!!

Emery managed to blink away at the last second, but he couldn't dodge the deadly Fusion Bolt perfectly. He stumbled to his feet as his figure reappeared meters away from where Shatter was standing.

The Fusion Bolt still managed to graze his body, deep enough to severely injure his right waist and carve out a massive chunk of it, leaving the gaping wound gushing with blood. It was an excruciating pain that messed up his mind.

It was such a powerful attack that rendered even his combined twilight forms magic resistance and [Jade Skin] ineffective.

Before Emery could take a breath, cast healing spell and let his [Undecaying Flesh] kick in, his opponent already launched his next attack. It was another powerful Fusion Bolt attack.

"Hahahah! Die! DIE!" Shatter shouted maniacally.

Emery gritted his teeth and forced his body to move, dodging the incoming attack. Unfortunately, the severe blood loss and the stabbing pain in his wound greatly impeded his speed.

A powerful bolt chased Emery at breakneck speed from behind, while from the other direction Shatter dashed towards him. It was clearly a two-pronged attack to Emery's disadvantage, with the latter's Fusion Blade ready to slash at him the moment they came close.

Realizing the precarious situation he was in, Emery's mind quickly spun and searched for a solution. A moment later, to the shock of the audience, he suddenly made a turn and dashed towards the bolt.

Facing the deadly bolt, he channeled the spirit energy within his body to unleash [Shadow Edge], one that was powerful to stop the incoming bolt. The moment the two attacks met, a loud deafening sound resounded through the arena.

The two attacks came to blow and created a huge spark that engulfed the entire arena with light.

Knowing that the bolt was too strong to be blocked, as soon as his sword touched the bolt, Emery swung his hand in upwards motion and let go of his grip on the sword, throwing it into the air.

It was a trick he learned and practiced with Klea, who was a master of lightning. He took advantage of the metal on his sword to direct the Fusion Bolt into it, directing the excess of the fusion bolt power away.

However, his predicament was not over yet. From right behind, Shatter was approaching rapidly with his Fusion Blade. Thankfully, Emery had readied another item for this kind of situation and swiftly brandished it.

White, almost translucent blade came out from the strange-looking pipe on Emery's hand, forming into a blade of light that completely stopped Shatter's Fusion Blade from moving further. As the two engaged with each other, a buzzing sound resounded through the air.

Buzzzzzzz--

This was Emery's second sword. A gift given by Magus Urix before his departure from Light Institute : [Lightsaber].

Since the blade of the weapon was not made of metal, the numbing sensation caused by the Fusion Blade's lightning element was completely neutralized as there was almost no medium for it to travel through.

All of a sudden, the battle became a contest between a light sword and a lightning blade.

However, now that he didn't have to care about the numbing sensation every time he blocked an attack, Emery triumphed overwhelmingly against Shatter in swordsmanship. The latter's crude sword skill was simply nothing to him.

When the bleeding at his waist stopped and the wound was mostly closed by the [undecaying flesh], Emery increased the intensity of his attacks.

This was the time for him to push the ground.

Without further ado, [36 Dao Divine Sword] revealed its majesty and played its part.

"AArrggghh!! No get the fuck away!!"

_.

The panicked Shatter quickly tried to point his other finger to shoot the Fusion Bolt charged in them. However, now that Emery has finally gained an advantage, he would not let it happen that easily.

He charged forward and hastened the speed of his sword slashes. With Emery's superior swordsmanship and the storm-like onslaught of slashes, an opening was created.

Emery swiftly swung his Lightsaber towards his opponent's hand.

Splllaaatttt!!

Blood splattered as four separated fingers flew into the air. The Cross Prince's loud, painful scream resounded throughout the arena for all to hear.

ARRRGGGHHHH!!!

Emery was poised for a decisive strike when Shatter suddenly decided to smash his Fusion Blade into the ground, producing a massive, powerful explosion of spark that sent him a dozen paces away.

"Arhghh! Arggh!! My beautiful fingers!!" Shatter screamed loudly as he stared at his amputated fingers. Snapping his head towards Emery, with a gaze full of hatred, the man venomously said, "You!! Damn you!!"

The Cross Prince was so hysterical and completely gone mad. A crazed expression crossed his face as he put his hands together, linking his two thumbs before pointing them at Emery.

[Fusion Bolt - big finger]

As soon as Shatter put both his fingers together, Emery noticed Anzi shout from the arena seats. "Don't!!"

Seeing such a reaction from his opponent's gesture, Emery could only imagine how strong this incoming attack would be. Not wanting to risk anything, he immediately cast [Blink] and went as far as he could before his opponent fired his spell.

BOOOOOMMMMMM!!!

A powerful sound shook the eardrums of everyone present in the arena as a huge bolt of lightning exploded towards where Emery was standing earlier. Unlike its predecessor, it continued to advance towards the seats, causing the onlookers to scream in panic.

CRAACKKK!!

It hit the barrier and smashed it to pieces, before continuing towards the seats where the spectators were. Panicked screams and shouts rang through the air, there was a stampede as everyone tried to move out of the way.

Then the next second, a figure appeared right in front of the spell's trajectory. With a wave of hand, they stopped the attack with a similar lightning spell.

BAAMMMM!!!!!

Two powerful lightning spells clashed against each other, creating a powerful storm of sparks that hurted the spectators who were nearby. However, were it not for the figure's intervention, there was no guarantee that most of them would have had their lives intact.

When the tempest finally subsided, the identity of the figure who stopped Shatter's spell was revealed. It was the old grand magus : the uncle and protector of the Cross Prince.

"Aaarrrggghhh!!!" Once again, Shatter shouted angrily. Fury seemed to have clouded his mind. But before he could ready his last two shots, Emery was already cast [Blink], appearing right before him and swinging his Lightsaber and... cut his arms off along with its final two fingers.

ARRRGGGHHHH!!!

The Cross Prince finally fell down on his knees, screaming in pain. On the other hand, Emery already had his Savage Blade on his other hand, touching his opponent's neck with it as an ultimatum.

"You have lost," He said calmly.

There was no verbal response. The man just stood there, his body shaking violently with anger. He remained silent yet didn't do anything to signify his surrender, forcing the referee to make the decision.

"Emery Ambrose wins!"

The crowd cheered in excitement as they witnessed the young Savage Acolyte who hailed from a lower realm managed to become the five strongest acolytes in the Magus Academy.
