CH.13 Midnight Duel
"Pain ......" Radis groaned and opened her eyes, only to see herself lying on her back on the floor of the library. The original wolf around has been completely restored to its original appearance, as if the previous fight was all a dream. He propped himself up with his hands, and the sharp pain in his ribs made him fall down at once, and his head hit the ground hard, and his tears were about to come out of the pain.
Just as he fell to the ground and struggled, Gardia appeared in front of him.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so embarrassed. She walked over to Radice and sat down.
"......" At this time, he completely lost his former majesty, but fell to the ground weakly.
"Don't move!" she pressed her hands on his shoulders. "You've broken two ribs, and now I'm afraid it's hard to even stand up. As he spoke, a white healing magic array shone on his body.
"So you have such a gentle side, huh?" said Radix with a smile as the pain on his body did not hurt so much due to magic.
"Stop talking, it's best to deal with a pervert like you, and let you die here!" Gardia glared at him, then turned her head away.
"Uh......" As if she had been hit, Radice shook her head in frustration.
After a moment of silence, Gardia was the first to speak. "I'm curious, why are you here during class time?"
"Didn't you already say that I came here to follow you. ”
"Really, are you sure?"
"Sorry...... I'm!"
"So, what's really going on?"
"Look, this ......" Radice reluctantly sat up and handed a book to her.
"It's ...... Books on Ancient Black Magic...... Are you reading this kind of book?!" Gardia gave a look of incredulity.
"Why, can't I just watch it?"
"Do you see what's coming from?" she gently opened the book and spread it on her lap.
"I don't understand it at all......," Radice shook her head, a helpless expression.
"Hahaha...... Of course you can't read it, how can a first-year freshman understand an ancient script that only a second-year student can learn!" Gardia's bell-like laughter echoed throughout the library.
"Cut, is that really the case......"
"It's surprising, but you're interested in ancient dark arts...... The average student isn't interested in that, is it?"
"Why aren't people interested in it?"
"Why...... If you have to say it...... Probably because the ancient black magic has been lost for so many years...... Almost no one uses it now, right...... And what the book says is just some general introduction...... Of course, the students are not very interested in magic that cannot be used......"
"Hmph, that's why I said humans are stupid......" Radice whispered.
"Did you say anything?"
"No...... No. ”
"Since you can't read it, it's useless to come here and find these books now. ”
"It's okay, just find someone who understands to help me......" Radice looked at her with a smile.
"What are you daydreaming about!" she stood up at once. "You pervert is so little carried away, don't think that's all there was to it! I still have a lot of accounts to settle with you!"
"Uh...... What a small man......" he muttered quietly.
"What do you say...... I heard it all!" Gardia glared at him fiercely.
"Let's duel!" said Radice suddenly and loudly.
As if she couldn't believe her ears, Gardia stared at him with wide eyes.
"Duel!" he braced himself on his hands, then looked at her. "Since you hate me so much, fight me in a duel, and if I lose, then I will disappear from your eyes from now on. But if I win, then please come to the library every day as my assistant and help me translate these books. ”
“......”
"Well, this condition is not bad for you, is it?"
"Why should I take it?!"
"Why, don't you dare, don't you have confidence in yourself?" Radice looked at her with contempt.
"Tell me, what's the way to play?" she said coldly.
"At twelve o'clock tonight, the location is in the garden at the back of the academy, and the battle is fought purely by magic, and whoever is hit by the opponent's magic first will lose. ”
"Whatever magic?"
"Yes, no matter what kind of magic, this is a very simple magic duel, any objections?"
"Good, I accepted. She replied coldly. "If you're unfortunate enough to be hurt by my magic, I won't heal you again like I did this time. Please be prepared......" Dropping the words, she turned and walked out.
"Thanks for the reminder...... I'll be careful. Watching her departing back, Radice scratched her head with her hand.
As night gradually fell, the originally lively campus suddenly became much more deserted. The silvery moonlight poured into the academy, reflecting the dappled shadows of the trees. The cool night breeze, mixed with the chirping of birds, makes the whole campus look a little weird at night.
On the avenue leading to the back garden of the school, a figure is slowly advancing. The moonlight illuminated her face, her snow-white skin, and her bright eyes, as charming as a fairy in the night. After a short walk, she came to the academy garden alone.
"Well...... It's so punctual. A voice came from behind her, and Radice slowly appeared behind her.
"Are you ready to die?" said Gardia, as if completely ignoring him, and said in a cold tone.
"Hungry...... Don't say it's so scary...... I'm going to blow your mind. Radice looked confident.
"Less wordy......" She gently drew her sword and pointed it at him.
"Uh...... Then come on. Radice waved lightly with his hand.
At the moment when he made his movements, Gardia's figure had disappeared in front of his eyes.
"Bang-" The sharp tip of the sword was blocked by an invisible force, shaking Gardia to the side. I saw a thin barrier wrapping Ladis's whole person inside. At the same time, beside him, several pre-arranged binding magic arrays suddenly appeared. Golden rays of energy shot out of it, wrapping her limbs tightly.
"Cut, despicable......" Gardia looked at him with disdain.
"It's tactical, thank you. Radice said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
