In the ring, the smoke and dust were so thick that everyone present could not see the situation inside the smoke. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Whew~ This guy, it's really troublesome. But now I don't have to continue to move at that high speed, which consumes my physical strength, so that's fine. ”

After confirming that the soot was thick enough to cover his body, Tauros stopped using his 'powers'. He is very aware of what he has to pay for himself in order to use his 'ability', his physical strength. How many times you have to 'multiply', how many times more physical strength you have to consume. So, Tauros had to stop and rest for a moment like this. Otherwise, if you don't have to attack yourself, you will have to be tired and fall here.

"Ha~ha~ I don't know how long I can rest. If that guy is a qualified magician, then I only have a limited amount of time to rest, and I hope that guy doesn't find me so soon. ”

Since Tauros chose the melee profession, it is naturally impossible not to know the natural enemies of these melee professionals, the long-range professionals. In particular, it is a characteristic of mage professionals who make up the majority of the ranged combat professions. The biggest characteristic of mage professionals is that they are weak in melee combat and good at long-range combat. Unlike archers who use bows and arrows, mages have a certain ability to fight back after being approached by others. If a mage is approached, they will usually be subdued in an instant. However, because of this, the mage has a strong ability to fight from a distance. Moreover, high-level mages can build a barrier around them that is composed of their own spiritual power and magical power. It has a certain degree of defense effect, and the effect is determined by one's own strength. What's more, some more high-level mages can use the spiritual power around them to detect the situation around them, and there are still 360 degrees without dead ends. Therefore, in Tauros's opinion, since his opponent was able to enter this academy. Then, you have to guard against this happening. Therefore, even now when he is still resting and recovering his strength, Tauros must be ready to fight at any time,

"I'm not very proficient yet, but let's give it a try. ”

Since he could no longer rely on his own eyes, Leo simply stopped using his vision to find traces of the other party.

"Although it is not yet proficient......

Leo closed his eyes and entered a meditative state. Although this method may be able to find traces of the opponent, so that the opponent can be attacked. However, Leo is not yet able to meditate anytime, anywhere. For example, in battle, Leo had to concentrate his attention, which led to a decrease in his reactions. However, this method is the best method Leo can think of so far, even if it is dangerous, Leo has no choice.

"Ha~Ha~"

At the same time, Tauros is taking advantage of the fact that neither side can see the other to recover his little stamina. As time passed, Tauros's breathing began to return to normal.

However, Leo still hasn't found the other party. While this may seem like a good idea, there are still problems. For example, scope. After all, is this in a ring or a ring for fighting. The size is definitely bigger than a house or something, and it's unrealistic to look around every corner. So, Leo divided the ring into several areas, looking for them one by one.

“…… Found it!"

Finally, before the smoke covering the ring cleared, Leo found his opponent's position.

"Go ahead!"

Although Leo looked a little strange to the other party staying in one place and not moving. However, I can't give up this opportunity now. Even though he knew it was a trap, Leo had no way to escape and could only jump into it.

"Fireball"

"Ice Arrow"

"Wind Blade"

So, in front of Leo, a very spectacular picture suddenly appeared. Three areas of different colors, with more than a dozen fireballs, ice arrows, and wind blades, are divided into three directions: upper, middle, and lower. Originally, Leo could have used magic that was even more advanced than that. However, the more advanced the magic, the more time it takes to cast it. Therefore, Leo can only use these low-level, but instantaneous magic.

"Thorn in the Ground"

Although Leo had prepared these spells, he was in no hurry to use them. Rather, it is used first and foremost among all magic, and the concealment can be regarded as the best ground thorn. Ground spikes are condensed elements that allow the ground to form sharp cones, allowing them to attack enemies on the ground. The damage is not high, but it can play a significant role at some times, and it is called the skill of the earth mage by the earth magician.

"Woohoo...... Damn, careless!"

So, just as the smoke completely dissipated, before Tauros could react, more than a dozen spikes, large and small, appeared on the ground under his feet, piercing into his body.

"Hmm...... Damn, you were careless!"

Tauros really regretted why he had lost his due vigilance just now, and he was so relieved to rest in place. If he had another chance, Tauros swore he wouldn't do it again. However, reality did not give him a second chance. Because now, in front of Tauros, Leo's fireballs, ice arrows, and wind blades are all aimed at him.

"I ...... I throw in the towel......"

I can't help it, I'm injured now. It's not that you can't continue to use your ability, but it's because in the state of 'doubling', your blood will also flow faster. In other words, if you continue to use your 'ability' now, your life will be in danger. For the sake of winning or losing a game, it is not worth paying such a big price. So, Tauros conceded defeat very shamefully.

“…… Did you win?"

Looking at Tauros, who had already raised his hands, Leo was a little unconscious. Thankfully, Leo knew what was going on. With a wave of his hand, he lifted the magic in front of him.

……

Later, after Leo's victory, Mike and Evan wanted to celebrate him and invited those who had already left the ring. However, Leo declined their invitation and returned to his room without saying a word.

"Leo, what's going on? Did something happen in the game? But I didn't see anything? What is weird? What do you say, Mike?"

Leo's current state is very abnormal, very different from the Leo that Evan knew in the past. So, Evan turned his gaze to Mike, hoping he could tell himself something.

"You don't know, how could I possibly know?"

"Alas...... Is that really the case? ”

Sensing Aven's questioning gaze, Mike turned his head to look at the other and told him he didn't know. Therefore, Ai Wen could only sigh helplessly. After all, if Leo didn't want to say it, he couldn't force people to say it. However, as soon as Evan sighed and looked away, Mike's face instantly changed to a thoughtful expression, as if he knew what was going on with Leo.

"Didn't you expect it to be in a complete state now? I thought it was already a complete state, um~ It seems that Leo's situation is not an ordinary situation. ”

……

After returning to his room, Leo did not choose to take a good rest, but chose to check his body.

"What the hell is going on, why did I ...... then?"

For the battle just now, Leo felt a sense of incongruity in his heart. However, after careful examination, nothing was found. It's all there, but it's ...... Looks like there's one more thing?

"Huh, what is this?"

However, it seems that there is really something in my body.
