Chapter 137: Counterattacking
"Two of the dormant magic that Anya's father uses during his lifetime is the [Dragon's Eye] and the [Authority], both are classified as No attribute magics. You can do the rest on figuring out the memories since it is in your brain and how you will be able to utilize it," Blue said before getting silent once again.
Since Blue already gave me the names of the spells I needed to learn, I did not encounter any problems locating the said memories from the memory fragments the dragon left for me. But due to the situation, I have to go on pure defensive this time to allow myself to study the two spells while the battle is ongoing and I have to hurry before this enemy unleashes a dangerous spell.
Thankfully, I am not the only magician in the area. Godou is also fighting against the female invisible magician using his Earth Magic and despite the injury in his body, he can still casually fight without any difficulty. At least it will buy me extra time to face the female enemy.
"What now?! Are you guys all bark and no bite at all?! Why are you all just settling to the defensive stance?! Show me what you can do you brats!" the female magician shouted.
"Did you think we can fight so easily if our enemy is invisible? Are you stupid or what?! We are not some X-ray machines that can easily see through on your kind! Show yourself so that I can beat you up without any restraint!" Godou answered back.
"Only a weakling will complain about my invisibility ability! A magician can immediately figure out what to do in every situation. If you can't do something so basic as that, then you are an idiot. You should die instead and fall to the ground like a worm you are!"
"Motherf*cking c*nt! Just you wait, I will make sure you eat some dirt once I bash your head to the ground!" Godou immediately started deflecting arrow beams appearing everywhere.
"You can die first. I don't intend to show myself," her laughter echo in the air which felt like it was coming from everywhere.
Seeing the situation is getting grave and the arrow beams getting stronger, bigger, and faster as time pass by, it is getting harder to fight and study at the same time. But I can still do it. Getting enough time from Godou allowed me to finally learn [Dragon's Eye] without a hitch. I thought it was hard at first but after learning the process of the activation of the [Dragon's Eye], I finally grasped and learned it and I also created a new spell due to the [Dragon's Eye].
[Dragon's Eye] spell has a very simple structure. Despite this magic is used by dragons, normal humans can use it. Beginners would have trouble learning it for a short period but if the magician learning it is a [Mana Scan] user, learning it is just a hitch.
This magic is mainly used like the Mana Scan, with only different usage. The [Dragon's Eye] is mainly used for seeing through illusions, mirage, and other forms of magic that alter surroundings to disguise something. With it, anything that tricks your eyes cannot escape. And since [Dragon's Eye] and [Mana Scan] are similar in structure, I got an idea to merge the two magic skill so that whenever I use Mana Scan, there is no need for me to use [Dragon's Eye] too especially if I needed the function of the two spells at the same time. Which allowed me to create new magic for myself that I call [Insight].
If the [Dragon's Eye] is easy, then the [Authority] is the difficult part.
[Authority] is Dragon-specific magic, which means normal humans cannot use this magic skill. But due to the inheritance that the father of Anya bestowed to me that allowed me to get a dragon part for a limited time, I can now be treated as a human with dragon blood. This magic is considered as buff and debuff magic types. This magic enhances the user's overall abilities like magic, physical, and mental strength, basically everything. It lasts for 10 minutes which is very good too but as long as this magic is active, it will continue to siphon mana without stopping. Now here is the debuff part of [Authority].
Once the spell is active, as long as its effect is present on the user, the enemies that felt hostile to the user will feel heaviness in their bodies and every single parameter in their body will fall drastically. It also has a unique trait that causes the enemies who were inflicted with debuff to be in constant need of double effort to act. If they ever wanted to walk, they have to "run" to walk properly. The effort of running will only allow them to walk while [Authority] magic is present.
Now here is the catch. Since [Authority] is quite a powerful buff and debuff giving magic, it needs a lot of willpower to learn. During the process of learning it, the toll of taking the power will be very heavy and will force you to carry it. Aside from that, the user will have to make sure they can overcome it, or else they will be squashed to death due to how immense the pressure of the magic.
Enduring it is not a problem, but fighting against a magician while learning [Authority] is just not going to be easy. If there was a part where it is hard to endure, I would be very open and I cannot fight properly which is why this is going to be a real risk.
"Remember Kazuma, do not risk it. It would be best if you can corner her up. You can learn [Authority] at a later date. Your goal is to escape the place and live another day, not die preemptively. Only an idiot will fight to the death even if the death rate is fixed at 100%. Just try to harass her for a little bit."
I sighed but what Blue said is true. If I force myself, I will only make more trouble by myself. Looking at the battle of the black giant which this woman calls as the Black Taboo against Kuma and Raigaki, it seems that the Black Taboo is at a disadvantage. If that is the case, forcing this woman into retreat will have to work, I hope...
Without waiting for the magician to release another barrage of magic towards us, I activated [Insight] and looked around us. Due to the effect of insight, I immediately nullified her ability to be invisible in my eyes. Even if she tried to go invisible on Godou, the effort will be futile against me.
No wonder we can't find her, it is because she is a little bit far from us and she just freely control her arrow beams to fight us. Since she is invisible, she can easily stop us from her arrow beams and make us confused about where she is hiding. What a sly woman. Unfortunately, playtime is over.
"Wrath of Lightning Strike!"
ZAAAPP!
My attack was instantaneous and a magic circle momentarily appeared beneath me before a flash of lightning fell from the mirror filled sky and before she can even react, the lightning hit her whole body, zapping her black.
"AAAAAAAGGGHHHHH!!"
Her scream echoed throughout the whole mirror world
