Chapter 110 Part 1: Vincent Vs Nick

(From MC Perspective) Little Star Gate High School- Red City, Combat Class, Nick Ford is looking at Vincent with a provocative gaze. He has been long sick of being the weakest one in this class. This time he will get opportunity to trample others. Thinking about his plan his face reveals a cunning smile. His eyes flickered with interest. Even top wizards who used to remain indifferent were also interested in this duel. Victoria Shields opened her big beautiful eyes to watch this match. She is standing with a group of her female friends. The other hand, Brent Dale & Danny Quinn were also interested after listening to the combat teacher. Both of their attitudes are neither arrogant nor humble. If one looks at their face, people find they don't care about anything. Like the event happening in front of them wasn't affecting them in any way. Only, Frank Lambert Rank 4th is making comments about this duel. Looking at Liam who was near him, Liam commented, "To think for Class Monitor to get beaten by a rookie. How humiliating is this?" He said with a mocking tone, which is quickly heard by others. People begin to look at Liam's reaction, whose face is getting ugly. All of this was happening on one side, While Nick Ford was talking. "Vincent?" Combat teacher Freeman called his name again. He found Vincent in some sort of contemplation. Combat teacher's words brought me back to reality. Seeing that I took too much time to respond, I sighed & slowly walk towards the Central platform While passing Lucas, he simply patted my back. I looked back and smiled. Lucas knows that for me it's a simple thing to take care of Nick. Lucas has seen first hand how I disposed of Chrissy Heart & her two friends. I can see he is not worried at all. Then I reached the central battle platform in front of everyone's gaze. Earlier small action of Lucas didn't go unnoticed by combat teacher Freeman. He, with discerning eyes, quickly understands that both of them are not at all worried when facing this situation. Suddenly, Combat teacher Freeman smiled. He gestures to everyone to step away from the edge of the combat platform. The floor of the combat room is built using brown stone leaving only the combat platform for battle. The combat platform is not that simple. It's specially designed for battles to take place. The platform's basement is strengthened using magic stones with enhancement of runic pentagrams. The combat platform can take bombardment, upto power of Level-3 Wizards. So there is no chance for any sort of damage & destruction here. As the wizard students quickly walked away from the edges of the platform, Lucas too followed the same routine. For him it's a different situation compared to his previous class' combat room. The Combat Teacher nodded after confirming that the edges were clear. Next Second he walked a little bit close & extended his hand to cast a spell. As mumbled the spell a colorless wave quickly related from his fingers and fell on the platform edges. "Boom" Domes made up of rune pentagrams begin to rise from the circular edges. The silver color runes quickly covered the above area by forming a dome like cage, leaving behind Vincent & Nick inside. It's a protective mechanism to save the observers from the aftermath of the spell. At the same time..... I guessed what would happen after the silver runic dome covered the open area above me. I retracted my thoughts & glanced at stupid Nick infront of me. He still has this sly smile on his face. Which is making me want to punch his face. "Maybe he will learn some lessons after this duel" I mumbled under my breath. I thought about using the system. This is a good opportunity as Mr. Freeman is focusing on the runic pentagrams. He won't find anything strange with me. I need to worry about everything before using this probe function in front of this many people. Who knows even a strong existence might be watching us from the dark? A day ago, I believed that there was no level-4 Wizard other than the headmaster. But my view is turned upside down after seeing this combat teacher. Next Second, I called out the system in mind, "System, Probe Nick Ford's status." "Ding! Host's voice is recognised" "Ding! Command is executed" [ Status Panel] [ Host's Name – Nick Ford ] [ Magic Power– Fire ] [ Mage Level – Level 1 Limiter ] [ Talent – Middle Low ] [ Color – Pale Green ] [ Strength – 14 ] [ Speed – 12 ] [ Stamina – 11 ] [ Vitality – 11 ] [ Intelligence – 11 ] [ Soul Power – 11 ] [ Constitution – 11] [ Mana Power -11] [ Core Status – (17%) ] [ Spells – 2 ] >> 1. Fire balls 2. Flame wings [ Mental Method – Common Fire Art( Middle Grade Method) ] My lips curved a little seeing his weak status. This guy is a senior yet his attributes are weaker than me. This also makes me understand the harsh reality of development. It's not easy for him to make progress. Compared to him, I'm way much better. I believe Nick is one year older than me. But he is practising the middle grade method. I heard in our world, elemental wizards like clouds can be seen everywhere compared to other wizards. But his status is also worse when we add middle low level talent with the Middle grade method. I sighed internally, then glanced at spells in his arsenal. Flame balls? Flame Wings? One is the long range spell & the other one is flight spell. These two spells do not pose a threat to me. This all happened in a blink of an eye. When the dome was covered entirely, everyone's eyes set on us. Combat teacher ordered, "Okay, begin." When his words echoed the entire room, Nick Ford reacted he instantly extended his hand and cast his flame spell. When he finishes his spell, he conjures two fireballs in his palm at the same time. "Whizz" Two fist size fireballs shone in bright red color. Seeing those two fireballs none of the wizards waiting outside flinched for a moment. For humans Nick Ford may seem powerful existence to them. But here he is the weakest existence, even the strongest wizard here can blow away these two fireballs. Nick Ford didn't waste any more time, as the two fire balls condensed in his palm. He looked at Vincent with vicious eyes. Next second, he released those fireballs towards Vincent. Two fist size fireballs move towards Vincent followed one by one. I can feel everyone's gazes on me. They are looking forward to seeing what I'm going to do. One thing that I have realised is that I have one more extra spell, compared to others. So I'm not going to expose that. As the fire balls inch closer towards me. "Gravity Field" When I cast the gravity spell, it instantly enveloped the area around me with huge pressure. People have no idea that I had already activated the spell. As the gravity field is invisible to eyes, it's impossible to guess unless one steps inside the spell. A slight glint flashes in combat teacher's eyes then it disappears in a moment. Mr. Freeman is quite puzzled as the runic dome obscures everything. He couldn't able to understand what's going on inside. He can find out if he wants to, but the runic pentagrams will lit up once his mental power passes it. So he doesn't want to do that. Battle platform, As the flame ball stepped inside the gravity field, it immediately crumbled into thin air due to heavy gravity pressure. "Gasp" Wide gasp sounded outside. Average wizards were clearly dumbfounded. How come the flame ball fades away even before it touches Vincent's shirt. Only fatty understand with a knowing smile on his face. A glimmer of interest flashes in Victoria's eyes. She is now more interested in this battle. Because the unknown attracts everyone. Only people who have experienced Vincent's spell personally understand the horror of his spell. Liam looked at the whole situation with a frown face. He thought the spell was cast poorly. If Nick had moved a little bit closer towards Vincent, the effectiveness of the spell would have increased. The top wizards also had the same opinion, from outside it looked like the flame balls had run out of fuel. Battle Platform, Seeing those two fireballs disappears into thin air all of a sudden. Nick Ford wide opened his eyes, "How come?" He had practised a ton of times, he is absolute about the range of his spells. The flame balls should have landed on him. The circular battle platform is quite huge. Nick is standing outside the domain of the gravity field. Once he steps inside the domain, he will go through the real horror. Opposite, I smirked seeing Nick's clueless face. This guy is clearly dumbfounded. I like this routine, I plan on continuing this until he finds out something. I laughed in my heart thinking about it. I would love to see Nick's face at that time. Soon, Nick retracted his thoughts and decide to try it again. He extended his palm & cast the spell. This time two blazing fire ball formed in his hand with more fire mana added to it.
