"Spectral Hands? No, it's probably a Mutated Spirit Hands! Use the Aqua Shields!" Terrence said as the ones they were seeing were different from the previous Ghost Hands that Vale had used a while ago. It is triple the size of the previous hands!
Because of that difference, they have mistaken it for another Dark Spell.
Furthermore, Vale's Ghost Hands weren't just larger but it is also more vivid than before… It looks even more intimidating as threads of black energy hurl around the three wrinkly hands he summoned.
"Brandon, use your Wind Vortex to push them away!" Terrence quickly commanded as he realized that Philip was actually bravely moving forward!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Aqua Shields they summoned collapsed one by one as they stared at the huge wrinkly hands aiming at their faces!
Luckily, they have movement spells as well so they were able to dodge the attack and use another spell to slow down the three summoned hands…
"What's wrong with these hands?!" Terrence was exasperated. Although they have other spells that could probably win against it, they can't summon it instantaneously like how Vale did it.
They needed some time to recite the chant but that would last for about a minute. They certainly don't have that much time in this battle.
In the meantime, Vale was actually surprised by how much they were struggling to destroy his Ghost Hands.
He wasn't even properly controlling the Ghost Hands and simply charging at them with no movement tricks at all.
'Am I that powerful? Perhaps they're not stronger than the Evil Creature I killed before? That's weird… Aren't they a bit too weak for sixth-year students? Is it because they are from an ordinary background?' Vale frowned as he watch Terrence and others started panicking as his Ghost Hands chased after them.
It was a pity that the Spell Lights in his body were already halved after forcefully destroying several Aqua Shields at the same time…
'I'm quite strong but my spell can't be used for too long since I have a little energy reserve…' Vale sighed inwardly.
At this point, Philip has already gotten near as he swiftly sliced one of the enemies using his sword made of darkness.
Sssaakk---
It passed through the man as if Philip's sword was simply made of smoke. Philip didn't get surprised at this as he continued to chase the other.
Priscilla noticed Vale's confusion and smiled at him. She didn't explain what happened as she continued blowing her whistle to destroy the Elemental Attacks of the group of enemies. This allowed Philip to act a lot more aggressive giving no chance for the others to recite their long chants.
Thud!
Suddenly, three people dropped to the ground a few seconds after they were "cut" by Philip's sword.
At this point, even Terrence realized that Philip's sword wasn't simply gathered energy that could be defended by using their Elemental State.
They have really failed to choose their enemy today…
"That's another Noble Rank mystical item! It's not a Dark Spell!" Terrence finally realized that Philip was using a silver bracelet with a few dark stones embedded in it.
It was no wonder that the mysterious power of the sword can't be shattered by their Elemental State…
"Terrence! What have you done?! Just why did you bring us to this mess?!"
"This is your fault!"
"What?! You're blaming now?! Stop complaining and just run away then!"
Terrence snapped at his brothers as he decided to just leave… They can't win like this since they were caught off guard by their Mystical Items… He wasn't sure but those items were definitely above 8,000 zen in price! They have never seen that kind of money so they know that they were defeated by wealth this time and not by skills…
Well, the creepy hands were also a problem but it's not to the point that could threaten their life…
Soon, the three unconscious people seem to have been dragged by something as they were pulled closer to Terrence's group…
Of course, Vale didn't allow them to leave just like that as he used his Spell Dispersion secretly…
Pah!
Terrence's connection with his spell was weirdly cut off once again even though Priscilla didn't use his whistle… It was very weird since he didn't see how that happen. He didn't even have any chance to resist it at all.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this point, his friends no longer saved their treasures as they started using their one-time-use mystical items...
They were Elemental Talismans but they were all high-grade Regular Rank.
These items were something they could purchase in the Academy using contribution points.
One contribution point allows them to exchange 3 Talismans.
They would normally carry 12 or so of these whenever they go out of their Academy as their life-saving treasures.
As soon as they used these talismans, the large hands that Vale had summoned finally dissipated… A total of 40 of them were used up giving them a great shock!
"Advanced Realm!"
This time, they also realized that Vale's level of mastery on those hands have already reached a terrifying level...
"W-what going on? I don't even have a spell at late-stage Intermediate Realm… but this brat has an Advanced Realm Spell?! How is this fair!"
What's even more depressing was his strongest spell isn't even an offensive spell. It was his Blessed Water at mid-stage Intermediate Realm that allows him to transform his drinking water into sustenance… It would allow him to survive just by drinking water even for five months.
He actually learned this spell to save money from food so he could purchase a Mystical Item that he really wanted.
However, today, he met a group of young brats who didn't just possess expensive Mystical Items but also has amazing mastery of their Spells!
Their difference is just too huge…
'Money… I need plenty of money!' Terrence bit his lower lip as he knows that he could at least bridge the gap in his talent if he has money to purchase Noble Rank mystical items.
Unfortunately for him, his life is already in danger. He has to survive first in order to have a chance…
As he was about to try and beg for his life, he heard some footsteps behind him.
His eyes lit up as he realized that a senior from his Academy had arrived!
"Senior! We're being bullied by those rich brats who only have high-level items to flaunt! Please help!"
