Chapter 136: The Curses and the Black Taboo Part 3

"Did you all think that distancing yourself from the Black Taboo is enough to stay away from it? I am quite sure that is not the case here," the woman who is speaking earlier said while chuckling in a flirty way.

Activating my Mana Scan, I tried looking for this person on my surroundings, however, not a single person is caught in my scans.

"Its useless, boy. A magician like me who has a higher and stronger mana flow than you guys won't be able to detect me."

Godou is still trying to endure the pain and the invisible enemy is always ready to deal with damage on us. However, I keep myself calm despite the odds against us in this situation. Keeping my head cool is enough for me to think of possible ways to spot this enemy and defeat her or escape from her depending on the situation.

Since my mana scan is still active, I have detected the release of arrow beams towards our location. Despite being invisible, the mana it releases while in the air is enough for me to conjure fireballs to block them.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Explosions occur every time I hit one beam of the arrow. The amount of explosion times is plenty enough for anyone listening to it to think that there is a bomb barrage somewhere around the place. Every time the fireball I release deflects an arrow, the explosion would then follows up another arrow which I will immediately follow up another fireball.

Thanks to the Seed of Ygdrassil in my body, mana supply is easily refilled without difficulty, and with my mastery in conjuring fireballs, releasing multiple times of fireballs in a short period is not a problem to me.

"Not bad for a magician who barely has enough mana on his mana pool. Unfortunately, I am getting bored with this battle, why don't we fight for real?"

Sh*t, I knew it. This woman who is still invisible is a dangerous individual. Not only that, our magic exchange earlier proves that she is still holding back.

"I will back you up Kazuma," Godou said as he forces himself to stand.

"Stay still, man! You are injured!"

"Pfft.. this? Minor injuries like this are nothing to me. It might be painful, yes, but that doesn't mean that is enough to bring down the Rock Controlling Magician, Godou!"

I can tell that the wound on Godou's arm is painful and terrible since I can tell that the arrows this person releases is enough to injure even a deity. What will a mere human capable of doing so?

"Hehe, interesting, interesting indeed. You are still capable of standing up and fight despite the injury you have received from me? Impressive."

"Heh, you are underestimating me indeed. If you think you are stronger than us, then be sure to beat us here!" Godou clapped his hands and several rocks started to float from the ground below straight up to the roof.

"Talking big huh? I have seen plenty of kids with confidence over the charts. Most of the time, those guys have the highest mortality rate in battles and currently, the style of your fighting is also unique and suicidal. If you are that desperate to die, don't mind me if I help you do that."

Another arrow beams appeared in my scans once again and without hesitation, I conjured flames and released it as soon as those arrows to move.

The arrows are unpredictable at times due to the chance of those arrows to dodge my fireballs by moving before the fireball connects. But that doesn't mean much. To a person like me who has an almost infinite pool of mana, even if we keep on conjuring magic skills continuously without any mana potion, rest, or anything that can restore mana, it will instead be a battle of endless stalling.

Godou did not attack and waste his mana. While I reflected every single arrow thrown to us by the invisible woman, I can tell that he is focusing on the surroundings to spot the real enemy hiding in the shadows.

"This is getting annoying and boring. Looks like you guys are not incompetent at all. Which means you all need to die as soon as possible!"

A barrage of arrow beams appeared this time around and no longer invisible. What is more than that, it is much bigger than the previous arrows released.

"Get back Godou!" I immediately jump on Godou and grabbing him out of his position before rolling to dodge the big arrows.

It was a good thing that the arrows were not homing arrows or else we would be dead before we can do anything at all. I look at the floor of the rooftop and saw a huge hole in the area where Godou was before alongside other places where holes are also made after the attack. It won't be long before the rooftop collapse.

"Stop running!" Another wave of those arrows was released once again.

"Let me deal with this Kazuma, I may be a bit injured but fighting is not a problem. Focus on finding the enemy to deal with her!" Godou said and conjures rocks out of thin air before hurling them to the arrows which barely got destroyed.

I nodded as confirmation on Godou and activated my Mana Scan. She might be hidden and can't be easily be spotted when using Mana Scan but that doesn't mean she will forever be invisible.

Focusing on my vision in my surroundings, gave me a little bit of clue but it was not enough. I can tell that this enemy changes location most of the time to avoid being spotted just like a sniper would do to avoid enemy detection.

"I am scanning your magic skills inherited from the holy beasts. Also the dragon's memory and some part of the dragon's power he inherited to you. There might be something that can help you in this situation and since this is inherited magic, you can use them anytime without learning it for how many hours or days," Blue volunteered.

"Oh? Why are you so considerate this time around? Aren't you always scolding me for messing up some things here and there?"

"Because you are an idiot who does not know much. Without my help, you would no longer be standing here and will be already one of the rotten corpses on the ground or worse, you might have been reduced to dust. Don't forget that."

"Yeah, yeah. So, what is the result, is there anything that I can use to flip the advantage to us?"

"Two magic skills from the dragon that was also passed down to you is currently possible for you to use to try reversing the tide of the battle. Of course, it depends on how you use it to fully reverse everything to your bidding. Don't blame me if it won't work as intended."
