Due to his proficiency in the skill, Gabby was able to manipulate the very vibrations of the air molecules that were responsible for the transmission of the sound. He was able to match the frequency of the sound waves he emitted with his skills and matched that with the resonance frequency of the water molecules within ice.
As the amplitude of the vibrations continued to increase, the sonic attack resonated with the water molecules and succeeded in breaking them away from the ice. In a matter of seconds the ice that was supposedly stronger than even stone would melt away under his sonic attack.
Dahila felt her attack shatter and liquefy as soon as she released it. She didn't understand how it was that they were able to cancel out her attack so easily but when she found out what was happening through Gabby's mouth, she felt how truly useless her fighting back was. She could hardly get over the natural superiority that Gabby had over her ice magic.
This was the first time that the magic that she had been so proud of had been rendered ineffective in front of an individual that was almost the same age as her. Her pride had been hurt and she didn't want to back down.
Dahila had never even imagined that she would be going against such a powerful team by herself. The mere existence of such a powerful team was against the rules as the teams that had been decided upon the start of the competition had all been equal in strength.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough the heart of the problem was Gabby, another issue was that he wasn't alone. The two others that were surrounding her weren't any weaker than him.
Dahila had witnessed their strength first hand. The slightly bulky one named Ibeniah was a strong mage who specialized in brute force and close combat. She had seen him take down one of her teammates earlier.
Ibeniah's huge body and brute strength gave him an uncanny advantage in fights that involved close combat or hand to hand combat skills. He had been so swift in taking down her teammate that Dahila hadn't even gotten a chance to get her teammate out of his predicament before his card was taken. Not only that, but in that short period of time, Ibeniah had managed to injure her teammate seriously as well.
Before Ibeniah could have hurt her teammate any further, the medics arrived on time and managed to stop the crazed Ibeniah from hurting her teammate. They scooped him up on a stretcher and carried him off the battlefield towards one of the infirmaries that had been established just on the outskirts of the dark forest. This had been done to ensure that the death toll remained zero during the test.
Ibeniah didn't try to stop the medics from taking her teammate away because his purpose had been to eliminate potential enemies from the test not to kill them anyway. As long as they were taken off the field, his mission was accomplished.
Dahila had only one thing in her mind and that was to escape as far away from the three who had attacked her team. Since she was the only one left, she had to prioritize her own survival over everything else. But even that proved to be as difficult as reaching the sky. The trio was powerful beyond her imagination and they had the perfect counter to her magic as well.
Out of options, Dahila did the only thing that she could; she fought back with everything that she had. She threw ice constructs at her enemies indiscriminately without stopping. As expected, Gabby retaliated by using his unique sound magic to counter all her moves. But Dahila refused to stop without having given it her all. She conjured more lances and ice bullets and threw them at all three of them. This not only served the purpose of crowd control but also acted as a means of testing the limits of Gabby. She wanted to find out for how long Gabby could maintain his spell.
The battle turned into a battle of attrition between Dahila and Gabby as the other two were occupied trying to defend themselves from the lances and bullets of ice that managed to make their way to them without being nullified by Gabby.
This was the toughest battle that she had fought yet so she was struggling to hold on, to last another minute while looking for an opportunity to escape from her predicament.
But Gabby's endurance surprised her. Such a powerful spell needed focus and concentration but he was able to counter her perfectly without stopping.
Gabby didn't feel at ease at all. He had to give in everything he had to keep her from injuring his teammates. He didn't want the battle to go on for very long. Therefore, he put in all his strength and mana into his spell at once as if a fragile tunnel was being pumped full of mana. The result as expected was a huge sonic explosion that shook the very forest. All the trees in the vicinity of him crumbled away like they were never there. The shockwave sent the remaining flying so far into the distance that there was now a clearing in the middle of the dark forest.
Dahila conjured an ice shield and reinforced it with all her mana around her. The shockwave did not send her flying into the distance only because she had encased her feet in ice and had used the ground as her anchor through that ice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDespite having survived the excessively strong shockwave, her troubles had not ended. Gabby was panting and looked somewhat spent but otherwise he was fine. On the other hand his teammates were perfectly fine. They must have known what was about to happen and must have taken the necessary precautions to avoid taking any damage from the shockwave.
Ibeniah struck one of his feet on the ground in order to propel himself forwards and lunged in the direction of Dahila with all the momentum he could muster. The ground caved in where he stepped and the strength oozing out of him somewhat caused Dahila to suffocate under the pressure.
Even though she could see the giant Ibeniah flinging himself towards her at top speed, she could hardly muster any strength to even dodge his attack. The reason was that her mana had stopped listening to her commands; or at least what little of it she still had.
She willed her body to move out of the way but it was of no use and Ibeniah with his bullet train like momentum punched her in the stomach with so much strength that she almost lost her senses and her eyes threatened to roll back into their sockets.
Pain coursed through her body, so much pain that brought tears to her eyes but Dahila wasn't about to let her helplessness show on her face. She held back her tears and the same cold and expressionless look adorned her face even at a desperate time like this.
She fell down on the ground and the slightly moist but soft ground gave her some relief. It was cool to the touch and after such a long and consuming battle, a little bit of respite was more than what she could have asked for.
Ibeniah, the unstoppable golem had finally come to a stop after taking down his target. There was a lewd and fiendish smile on his face as he looked down at his target.
Even his teammates had been sick of this habit of his. He loved to have his way with beautiful girls that he managed to take down. It gave him a sick sort of sense of superiority as well. Ibeniah was the textbook kind of villain who felt a sense of importance only by stepping on the weak. That was the reason that he wanted to repeat the same ritual again with Dahila.
He looked towards Gabby and Macbeth in turn and the lewd smile on his face gave away his intentions to the two of them who had been with him for quite some time now. Even at Melbourne high school among the elite bloodlines, Ibeniah had still managed to lay his hands on some of the girls there. He had a reputation for being a sadistic bastard when it came to any girl that landed in his hands.
