Chapter 4 - The test - part 2

The sudden screens popping up startled Hil as he hadn't been expecting anything to come up. He looked at the details for mana attack.

[Mana attack level1:

Use a blast of mana to attack the opponent. If there is no specific mana the user focuses on using, then the most abundant mana in the immediate area will be used. ]

Gil wasn't sure what to make of it and as he spent time looking and thinking it was now his go. He closed all the screens and headed to Leon. He chose not to use man this time and activated his swordsmanship skill as he approached.

[Opponents level to high to inspect.]

[Defeat the opponent to receive ???exp]

This was the messages the popped up when he was within 15 meters of Leon, Gil gave a quick glance to them and knowing he couldn't defeat him ignored them.

Gil stopped about 10 meters out, the same sort of distance as Natasha when she attacked leading the student to think he had the same sort of power or attack plan. Gil took a deep breath to cram himself and thought of the hours practice he had done for this moment.

Expelling the breath Gil leant forward, so for that he fell. Just when. The other students thought he tripped he shot forward. With his 23 points in agility boosting his speed he shot towards Leon quicker then anyone expected, including Leon. This wasn't enough to give him any advantage, as if Leon couldn't handle a slight surprise then he couldn't call him self a hunter.

As Gil closed the distance in a second with his blade to his right he brought it up in a sweeping motion. As Leon brought is left hand to catch the blade, he was again surprised as his hand met nothing. Just when Leon was about to grab the blade Gil slide between his legs hoping his plan would work. As slipped through he dug one foot in the ground causing him to stand back up.

For Leon he know that is he was to try and stop this it would be a simple task, he know that if he where to attack all the kids not just here but also all that left, non would last through one strike. This is why he didn't act as fast as when facing a beast.

Gil turned as fast as possible and with the moment and all the power he could slashes his sword. With the swordsmanship skill active this would cause some damage to some of the weaker hunters Gil thought. Leon turned just as fast and offer his arm allowing the blade to his it in a stance the looked like a boxer protecting his head. As the sword met the arm there was a loud bang then the sound of metal snapping.

Gil was thrown back and twisted in the air to land properly. He lifted the sword to see what the noise was only to find that it had all shattered apart from the handle. Unsure of what else to do as his original plan to attach with the sword failed he tried to use a mana blast.

Not having activated his mana detection he wasn't sure what the blast would be made of. Lifting his hand and focusing he suddenly know what to think of. He thought of the mana in the air coming to his palm forming an orb. As the orb grew in size he visioned it shooting of towards Leon.

[Earth blast lvl 1 has been learnt]

Leon didn't know what to think at this point. The low power earth attack proved his power wasn't body enhancement like he originally thought. Swotting the earth orb away and knowing Gil couldn't continue he was about to praise him when he heard the gates of the castle open and the voice he feared the most.

"LEON, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ATE DOING"
