Chapter 339:A Deadly Confession[III]
The force of the slam momentarily disoriented him as his face became cloudy and unfocused.
The ground ruptured and cracked which was followed by a thunderous boom that drew everyone\'s attention.
However, due to the hours and hours of intense training, Aels had developed multiple instinctual reactions depending on the situation. In his confused state, one of them immediately activated.
Qi surged from Ael\'s body, instantly siphoning into the radiant armor he was currently donned in. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
In the next instance, the armor erupted in a blinding radiance. The intricate lines etched on the armor ignited with fluid grace, tracing across its surface in a mesmerizing dance of luminosity.
They converged into a ball-shaped energy, pulsating with unbridled power at the center of the chest part of the armor, casting a brilliant glow that seemed to illuminate the entire hallway.
And in the next instant, with a force that would have sent Aels flying away if not for Leon\'s grip, it shot toward Leon\'s body.
The distance between Leon and Aels was so close that with how fast everything had happened, no one should have nearly enough time to even comprehend the fact that they had been attacked before they got turned into cinders.
But as soon as Leon had felt the Qi in Ael\'s body stirring, he had long since acted.
The air around Leon\'s torso appeared to warp and twist, as if being molded by invisible hands then a beam of light shot out.
Leon deftly manipulated the qi surrounding his torso and used draconic transformation.
His body became hard, rigid with scales growing upon his body acting as
And just as it seemed that the beam was about to pierce through Leon\'s body, it met the distorted scales surrounding him.
In an instant, the air around Leon shimmered and exploded.
The impact resulted in a powerful clash, unleashing shockwaves that rippled through the surroundings and scattering scorching remains across the area.
The explosion illuminated everything.
Su Lin and Gwen\'s eyes widened for a moment and then they lost thief vision due to the intense bright light.
That was a direct hit and a powerful force of impact might kill Leon for read.
Worry started clouding their minds until they heard a voice.
[My Lord is okay.]
They then looked back and saw Terpas emerging from their shadow and glancing at the scene with a blissful smile.
.....
Ask who had attacked instinctively though it was over also…
Before Aels could even regain his composure, the firm grip on his face tightened as he was immediately lifted up from the ground.
"What? How are you alright?"
His vision was a bit hazy so all he could see was bare blackish armor that started to disperse.
Unfortunately for him, Leon had no mood to let him go.
"Since you wanted a fight…I will give you a very very memorable fight, one which you couldn\'t forget even if you wanted."
SWISH!
The two images that stood near the crater suddenly blurred and soon, a banging explosion echoed on a nearby building.
And with another deliberate swirl, Ael\'s body was slammed once again headfirst into the wall, sending another wave of pain passing through him.
A part of the building or dormitory at the front was immediately cracked away ringing warning signal.
A group of cadets had already appeared but they were too afraid to step ahead. Moreover, a smoke screen was blocking their vision.
In such a scenario, they knew that they shouldn\'t act on their own and get themselves killed like fools.
On the other hand, Aels felt his mind go blank as Leon lifted him up from the wall, gradually pulling him in, putting a good amount of distance from the wall.
His arms and legs appeared lifeless, dangling downwards as his head was held firmly. And then, with a forceful push, his body was slammed brutally onto the wall.
The same action repeated itself, each time more brutal than the last.
The academy buildings were sturdy, very sturdy. Despite how brutally Aels was being slammed against the wall, the wall though cracked didn\'t collapse.
"What a sturdy wall! So let\'s test the durability shall we?"
Leon muttered casting an eerie smile that sent a shiver down Ael smile.
With each slam, the armor Aels was donned in would light up, protecting his torso from harm while also siphoning mana away from Aels.
Unfortunately for Aels, he was always being slammed headfirst against the wall, and the armor wasn\'t protecting his head.
And each time the devastating beam was shot at him, the air would simply distort in front of Leon, easily deflecting the beam away from him.
Leon wasn\'t using a single shred of qi as he slammed Aels against the wall; in fact, he hadn\'t even used it to neutralize Aels.
This was the height of Leon\'s strength and how powerful he was compared to the other of his age
Only his passive strength was enough to not only keep up with Aels but also easily neutralize him.
He was already out of their league.
He was beyond where they stood.
If it was before he might not be strong but the brutality he had gone through at the hands of Uncle just made him a different breed of beast.
Except for the attack, where he felt threat and used Darkness elements to devour the partially successful light, still, now he still used brute force.
Every single inch of Aels\'s body was covered in smoldering golden light, making his body burn hot. If not for the thin distorted space wrapping around Leon\'s hand, he wouldn\'t have been able to hold Aels the way he was holding him.
Even Leon would get burned if he touched Aels without protection.
And then,
*CRACK*
The sound of something breaking echoed, but it wasn\'t the wall.
The sound was instantly followed by the splatter of something against a hard surface, and then,
"Haaaaa!" The intense, deafening scream followed.
Leon watched with a cold gaze as Aels screamed. The back of his head had just cracked, causing a significant amount of blood to splatter on the wall.
Incredible pain seemed to bring Aels out of his confusion as his eyes regained their clarity, the two eyes instantly meeting the cold, piercing dark gaze of Leon.
Contrary to what many would think, as he met Leon\'s cold gaze, Aels didn\'t tremble. In fact, he wasn\'t even the least bit scared.
There was only one thing Aels was currently feeling intense anger.
Through and through, Aels was a noble elf
Due to the nature of his bloodline, Aels had undergone intensive training from childhood. During this time, he couldn\'t count the number of times he had been inflicted with a massive amount of pain.
Despite that, the current situation felt overwhelming.
