While Elara and Noir were out training Elara's magic, Grey along with Randin were seen walking behind the mountains and caves going into a deep forest. But this forest was weird looking as instead of the green leaves Grey was used to, he could see ashen leaves on the trees barely hanging but surprisingly hanging. While the air around the forest was thick and heavy as it smelled and felt like death. Walking forward, they could barely see an opening as tall trees surrounded them both while chirping sounds were heard jumping from one tree to the next. "I wonder what kind of beast I'm going to encounter." Grey said with a smile as lightning danced around his fingers waiting to be unleashed when danger has been sighted. It didn't take long actually for them to encounter danger as immediately they walked four metres into the forest, they could hear stomping noises heading their way. It didn't take more than a minute for a tall gorrila like beast with four arms on its body with a horn on its head, and sharp fangs protruding out of its mouth. Quickly before the beast could do anything, Grey swirled his mana to his left eye and that lit up and he could see the beast's stats. {Name: Quadrog} {Level: 5} {Abilities: Earth.} "Perfect!" Grey smiled as he took a stance with lightning still dancing around his fingers that now ran around his arms almost lighting the dull looking forest. The beast on seeing them both, roared loudly as it pounded its chest with all four arms and in a flash was seen dashing towards them as it got to Grey's position and swung its four arms at once but unluckily for the beast, he had already uses his wind magic to move away in time. While Randin quickly came in from the side swinging his sword that was about to crash into it but then an Earth wall suddenly rose blocking Randin's strike. "I guess it can use it well huh." Grey said as he came shooting forward with lightning still coating his hands and he was about to slam it into the beast but a wall was raised again blocking the lightning completely. "So it wasn't you raising the wall." Randin said as he took a stance while Grey quickly zipped away just in time to avoid a spike heading for him. "Why would I raise an Earth wall to protect the beast?" Grey asked as fire began blazing around his arm and in a flash, he began shooting fireballs at the beast who skillfully began raising earth walls after walls blocking it. The beast letting the wall down, swiftly shot a dozen Earth spikes at Grey who was seen shooting out a dozen wind blades getting rid of them just in time as Randin was seen falling from above with his sword raised above his head. 'While Grey was dealing with the spikes, he secretly used his wind magic to lift me up so I can attack from above and I hope the beast won't notice.' Randin thought as his sword was about to connect with the beast's head when an Earth shield appeared from above blocking the strike that when connected, rang out loudly almost like metal hitting metal. Then the beast dashed towards Grey who created a wind blade instantly and sent it flying at tremendous speed towards the beast who swiftly jumped up avoiding it and was seen falling towards Grey with all its four arms raised above it and was about to slam it into him but then an Earth wall was raised blocking it. While from the side, Randin swiftly threw three daggers at the beast as it was seen kicking off from Grey's Earth wall and whacking the daggers out of the air but then Grey had the opportunity to shoot out a fireball that crashed into the beast throwing it out of the air and slamming into the ground hard. "Silly beast, you think if I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't do that by now? I was just toying with you to see how far I have grown silly." Grey said as he was seen walking forward with a smirk on his face while lightning was dancing around his fingers. That was when he suddenly felt a rumbling beneath his feet. Using his wind magic, he swiftly jumped up just in time to see a swirling thin and long earth that had almost caught him if not because he sensed the mana from the attack. The beast was now seen standing up while pounding its chest hard then the long Earth swiftly curled around and wrapped around Grey quickly before he could avoid it and then, a dozen Earth spikes suddenly appeared around the beast and was about to be unleashed towards Grey. ___________ Meanwhile, Noir along with Elara were still back at the other forest as Elara had just finished forming a pebble when Noir's comment threw her off the celebration mood. "That's weird." Noir said as he eyed her up. "Or is that an anomaly that shouldn't occur?" "What anomaly?!" Elara shouted feeling fear grip her heart that her first success was about to be discredited. "How are you holding onto that pebble?" Noir asked as he walked forward to examine it. "Am I supposed not to?" Elara asked feeling confused. "That is the point. Illusion magic is what it is, illusions. Illusion meaning they aren't real and can't be touched but you are able to touch that pebble so fine, which is surprising." Noir said and then Elara glanced at the pebble. "That's weird indeed." She said. Searᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Have you ever tried casting an illusion before?" Noir asked. "A few times but I was unsuccessful." She replied. "Try again, cast another pebble let's see." Noir commanded and seeing the seriousness Noir exerted, she quickly got to it and since she already knew how to do it, it was easy the next round as she managed to cast a pebble in four seconds which she held and pointed it towards Noir. Walking towards her, Noir placed his paws on the pebble and could feel how real it was. 'Her illusions, she is able to make it feel so real that nobody would know it is just an illusion. And she just called herself useless? Even me would struggle to do something like this… not even struggle, I can't cast such an illusion, it requires a large concentration of mana and natural talent. Although I have a lot of mana and talent, it is still something I can't do.' Noir thought as he looked up at her. "Okay it is established, you and that dumbass Grey are both talented and lucky monsters." Noir said through the mind link as it sighed and moved back. "How do you feel casting that?" "Excited." Elara replied with a wide smile. "And? Do you feel weak, tired or feeling a strain on your mind or something?" Noir asked. Elara took a few seconds to reply and then she shook her head. "Nope! I feel fine." "Okay! Let us move to casting higher illusion magic. Are you ready?" Noir asked and Elara nodded while going into her meditative pose. Noir would call objects for her, and she kept creating illusions although the casting speed varied, she was still able to do them. From plants, to rocks, to small animals, then objects, weapons and so on. Finally satisfied, Noir decided to take the risk and asked her to create a human illusion. "Let me see." Elara said excitedly as she got to walk and began imagining a human or an elf so as to create but when she tried, she felt a banging headache hit her hard and she shouted. "What's wrong?" Noir asked. "I have a banging headache." She replied. "That means you have hit your limit. So let's head back and rest up and we can continue later." Noir said. "No! I want to continue practising more. Now that I have the chance, I would maximize it." Elara said as she tried imagining an elf when the headache hit her again harder than before and she screamed. "Will you listen to me now and take a break?" Noir asked annoyed and Elara sighed as she slowly stood up and they began making their trip back to Randin's cave unknown that the duo of Randin and Grey were doing something risky. __________ {A/N} Guys!
