Chapter 715 - Did I Hit Him Too Hard?

When the massive python had appeared, most of the magic casters had thought that this would be a massive turning point in the battle. After all, the python that Kola had manifested was enough to put his 5tj-tier power on full display.

And then, a massive orange ball fell from the sky, crushing the massive python and knocking out Kola beneath its massive backside.

The outcome of the match had been decided.

Everyone had fallen completely silent as they looked at the gargantuan ball of an orange, as well as the unconscious Kola beneath it, who was frothing at the mouth.

“Holy f*ck…”

Only expletives could express the feelings that the magic casters present were currently experiencing.

“Meow!!!”

Ugly Duckling was being held in Mag’s arms, and it stared at the massive orange ball with wide eyes, then down at its own round belly, and it made a conscious effort to suck in its stomach as much as it could.

“This is how manifestation magic should be used…” Mag was also in awe. At the same time, he was very glad that Amy hadn’t manifested a massive version of him.

After a prolonged silence, all of the magic casters erupted into an uproar. Everyone was discussing the efficacy of such an attack. This was a disposable spell, and if it were to miss its target, then it would be completely useless. However, if it struck its target, then the magic and body of a 5th-tier magic caster would clearly be no match for such a simple yet effective strike.

Krassu turned to Richard with a wide smile on his face. “Richard, your disciple has already lost the power to battle. In this case, the victory belongs to Amy, right? So how about you hand over my Fire Spirit Lotus and Flame Spirit Crystal?”

Richard’s face darkened to an alarming extent as he flipped his hand over to produce the Fire Spirit Lotus and the Flame Spirit Crystal. He tossed the two items to Krassu as he sneered, “Hmph, all she is does is play little dirty tricks! There’s no future for her!”

Krassu accepted the two items, and his smile grew even wider. After stowing the items away, he smiled, and replied, “Regardless of whether she has a future or not, the fact of the matter is that she can crush all of your Magus Tower’s so-called prodigies with ease. Also, I really must thank you for these two fire-type treasures.”

Richard was enraged beyond belief as he glowered at Krassu. “Krassu, you spent several decades of your life at our Magus Tower; are you really so intent on making the Magus Tower your enemy?”

“I don’t care how long I spent in this place; all I know is that it’s no longer the place that I envisioned it to be.” Krassu turned to all of the magic casters present with a menacing smile as he said, “Also, I have a habit; if anyone takes something I own and ruins it, I’d destroy it and make another one.”

The entire Magus Tower immediately fell silent, and all of the magic casters present wore complex expressions.

Richard opened his mouth, but repressed the urge to say anything in the end.

Amy made her way over to Mag, and squeezed Ugly Duckling’s cheek with a serious expression as she said, “Do you see that, Ugly Duckling? If you keep eating like you’re doing now, you’re going to become like this. If that happens, I can only throw you around to squash baddies.”

“Meow~”

The mental of image of itself being thrown around as a ball surfaced in Ugly Duckling’s mind, and it shuddered as it shook its head with a pitiable expression.

“Let’s go, Little Amy, Boss Mag.” Krassu turned toward them before giving Amy a thumbs-up. A benevolent smile appeared on his face as he praised, “Well done, Amy.”

Krassu and the others departed from the Magus Tower. A weary look appeared on Richard’s face as he raised a hand, and said, “There’s nothing more to see here.”

A blue rope of water gently picked up Kola from the ground, following which both he and Kola disappeared from the hall on the first floor of the tower.

“As expected of Master Krassu; he really is the Lord of Fire. But from the sounds of it, he seems to be threatening to destroy our Magus Tower again!”

“If no mishaps occur, that little half-elf girl is most likely going to be crushing all of the magic casters of the younger generation.”

“It feels like everyone else is still learning to crawl, yet she can already sprint!”

All of the magic casters dispersed, but they were still quietly discussing the events that had just taken place. Even though it had only been a battle between two 5th-tier magic casters, it was quite possible that the outcome of this battle was going to dictate the future of the magic world for at least the next several decades, if not the next few centuries.

…

Brent had only just woken up after being slapped unconscious by Krassu. He turned over in his bed, only to discover Richard standing by his bedside, upon which he hurriedly got up into a sitting position.

“What happened?” Richard asked with furrowed brows.

“Master Richard…” Brent gave Richard a recount of the incident that had taken place earlier. After a brief hesitation, he decided to gloss over the part where Amy had smacked him with her chairs. As a great magic caster, it would be far too embarrassing for him if news were to spread that he had been physically assaulted by a little four-year-old half-elf girl.

Richard’s brows furrowed even deeper as he said, “I didn’t think that the elven race would send Irina this time. Looks like she’s already aware of the fact that our Magus Tower is connected to that incident from three years ago.”

Brent was a little panicked as he said, “President, what should we do now? Irina is too powerful; there’s no one in our Magus Tower who can match her in battle aside from you. If she attempts another sneak attack like she did today, she could easily kill anyone in our Magus Tower!”

In contrast, Richard wasn’t concerned in the slightest as he coldly said, “She didn’t kill you, which means she’s still not sure who exactly participated in that assassination three years ago. Besides, this is Rodu, not the Wind Forest; she can’t just kill someone from our Magus Tower on a whim. If she really does try to hunt down members of our Magus Tower, we have every right to kill her here in Rodu, and the elven race won’t be able to do anything to us.”

Brent’s eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this.

Richard continued, “Send someone to inform His Highness, the second prince, about what Irina did in Rodu today. His Highness will have a way to deal with her.”

“Alright.” Brent hurriedly nodded before clambering out of bed and stumbling outside in a rather unsteady manner.

Your Highness, the assassination three years ago was orchestrated by you, so you have to take care of this matter. Our Magus Tower isn’t going to suffer the consequences of your actions. Richard disappeared from the room.

…

A horse-drawn carriage departed from the Magus Tower, weaving through the streets as it headed toward the northern region of the city, which was where all of the renowned restaurants of Rodu were gathered.

“Master, my chair swing just then was super awesome, right?” Amy turned to Krassu with a joyful expression.

“I couldn’t have done it better myself, Little Amy.” Krassu nodded with a content expression.

“Tsk, but I didn’t learn that attack from Master,” Amy said with a shake of her head.

“You didn’t learn it from me? Then whom did you learn it from?” Krassu raised his eyebrows upon hearing this. Could it be that Urien was teaching Amy melee magic?

“Bam!”

Right at this moment, a muffled thump erupted, and the horse-drawn carriage came to an abrupt halt.

“Did I hit him too hard?”

A slightly apologetic voice rang out from outside the carriage.
