Chereads / Regress For Revenge / Chapter 43 - End Of The Sparring Match

Chapter 43 - End Of The Sparring Match

Noah uses Body Of Speed. Lightning and moves at an incredible speed. He grabs Kramptus by the neck right before he finishes his surrendering declaration. Kramptus looks down with difficulty to see the face of his opponent and when he sees he is terrified because Noah had the hugest smile on his face, one of his pupils was sharp and that eye was red.

- Lightning magic. Lightning Palm.

Lightning is charged in Noah's palm and he discharges it all on Kramptus. Due to the pain received from Noah's spell, Kramptus loses consciousness.

{Kramptus}

"I... I am gonna d... Die."

{Demonic Instinct}

" KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL"

- Lightning Spear.

Noah's whole forearm is covered in lightning.

[In the stands]

{Turo}

" Bloodthirst!"

- Guro!

- I know!

[In the arena]

Noah swings his arm covered in lightning toward Kramptus.

*Boom* That's the sound that resonates throughout the arena after Noah swung his arm along with the noise a huge amount of dust was lifted from the ground creating a screen of dust. Blood splatters on the ground

- Dont you think this is enough, Noah? says Turo

- This was dangerous! You could have killed him. says Guro

The screen of dust clears up and what we see is Guro grabbing the arm that Naoh swung at Kramptus and a little farther, right behind Guro, is Turo who has Kramptus in his arms.

- Thunder magic...

The reason why lighting magic is the most valued and rarest element out of the five elements is that it is able to change form. Electricity, Lighting, and Thunder are the three forms that this magic can take. It is also why Noah's Origin spell; Body Of Speed is separated into three forms. The strong point of electricity magic is its ability to infiltrate the opponent's body and render them unable to move, the strong point of lighting magic is the speed and the power of the spells, and Thunder magic has devasting destructive power.

Noah raises his other hand in the air

-...Descending Thunder.

A magic circle forms over the four and from the magic circle everyone can hear thunder crackling.

{Turo}

" This is remote casting! "

Noah swings his hand down and as soon as he does, from the magic circle thunder falls on the arena.

*BOOOOM*

The light emitted from Noah's Descending Thunder spells blind those within the arena but the noise echoes throughout the academy.

- Is everybody alright?

The students raise their heads and see Darius floating above them above a small cloud made of wind. The smoke in the arena clears up. A huge crater was left after the thunder fell on the arena. Within the crate that was created by the thunder, is Noah and in front of him a sphere made of wind turning around in a spherical sense covers the other three that were about to get hit by the thunder. The sphere of wind dissipates revealing another sphere but this time made of metal. Darius flies over to the arena and lands next to Noah.

- hmmm.... He passed out. Probably from the extreme mana exhaustion and the damage of his spell also contributed. says Darius

The sphere made of metal slowly breaks and shatters. Revealing Guro, Turo, and the still passed-out Kramptus.

- Principal! It seems you got here right on time. says Turo. Are all the students safe?

- Yes. It seems like the spell wasn't strong enough to reach the stands. says Darius

- What about student Noah? asks Guro

- He passed out from extrema mana exhaustion and the damage that he took from his spell.

- Principal. We need to talk about Noah. says Turo

- I know. Bring these two to the infirmary and cancel classes for the first years for the rest of the day and gather all the first-year teachers. Darius says

Darius creates a cloud of wind and leaves. Guro heads over to the still-standing Noah and picks him up. Guro and Turo then bring Kramptus and Noah to the infirmary. The rest of the students leave, heading to their dorms. Gancelot follows the two teachers to the infirmary.

[4 hours later(Outside world time) in the Inner Realm]

Noah slowly opens up his eyes.

- Where am I?

- Obviously, whitin your Inner Realm. says Dull

Noah gets up quickly

- Wait... WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MATCH!? WHAT HAPPENED TO KRAMPTUS?

Dull stares at him and sigh

- No... way. Di... Did I kill him? asks Noah

- Why?

- If I killed him I will definitely get kicked out of the academy.

- So you don't actually care about the guy, just about the fact that you might face expulsion?

Noah replies with a look completely void of emotions and utter coldness.

- Why would I care if he dies?

- It seems like my brother was right.

- What do you mean?

- You still live in your past life.

Noah frowns

- The past life in which I was killed by those goddamn demons that weren't even Demon Kings?

- You are still upset about that?

- Do you really need to ask?

{Demonic Instinct}

"KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL"

- *Gasp* DAMN IT!

- How did it feel?

- Huh?

- How did it feel to lose yourself? To slowly get devoured by your Demonic instinct? To slowly but surely become another per...no... something else?

- You... Are you picking a fight? asks Noah

- You didn't like it?

- YOU-

- Stop acting like a child!

Noah is shocked

- A child?

- Yes! A child! You said that you were ready to do whatever it takes to get stronger yet you continuously abhor and reject your demon blood.

Noah can't say anything to that since he, himself knows that that is exactly what he has been doing.

- You will never get stronger as long as you act like this. You need to accept and embrace every part of yourself, Noah. Otherwise, what happened in your past life will repeat in this one too.

-...

- Leave and think about what I said to you. says Dull

Noah's body dissipates, proof that he is leaving his Inner Realm

[Outside world in the infirmary]

Noah opens his eye.

{Noah}

" This is... the infirmary."

Noah sits down on his bed and he notices that next to him is Gancelot who is sleeping. He flicks Gancleto's forehead which wakes him up.

- MASTER! Are you ok? Do you need me to call the nurse? Do you need some water?

- Calm down. I am okay.

- No way! After you took that much damage from your spell plus you were completely empty of your mana too.

- I know but I really am fine.

{Noah}

" And it's probably thanks to my constitution that can absorb Energicules without me cultivating and my demon blood which improved my healing speed."

- No way... the nurse said that you would need at least a complete week of rest.

Noah gets up and starts dressing up.

- Well, seems like the nurse was wrong.

Noah opens the door of the infirmary

- Wait! Where are you going, master?

- I am going to the library. he answers while leaving

- I guess he is not going to watch over my training. says Gacelot

[In the library]

Noah opens the door and enters the library, when he does a lot of students turn their head and looks at him. When they notice that the one that entered the library was none other than Noah Arcadios, a lot of whispers start within the library's first floor. Noah pays no mind to them and heads straight for the stairs that lead to the second floor.

{Noah}

" Looks like the whole school already knows what happened in the arena."

Noah starts walking up the stairs but as soon as he sets his foot on the first step, he can feel something pushing him, trying to stop him from walking up the stairs.

- So this is the mental barrier.

But the mental barrier was nothing compared to the mental prowess that he obtained during his training to master Mind Immersion, therefore, he easily climbs up and enters the second floor.

{Noah}

"The amount of books has gone down. I guess that the more I climb up, the fewer the books the floor will have."

Noah starts walking around checking each book on each bookshelf

[An hour later]

{Noah}

" Even though the second floor has fewer books than the second one, it still has a lot of them. I have been searching for an hour now and I only checked about a quarter of all the books on the second floor. Should I leave it there for today? No, let's at least finish half of the second floor."

[Another hour later]

Noah puts a book back into its bookshelf.

- With this one, I have read half of the books on this floor. Noah says after a sigh

{Noah}

" Now, what should I do? I am probably in a lot of trouble because of what I did to Kramptus and the fact that I attacked teachers. What should I do to get out of this one?"

- Tsk! This is annoying.

Noah leaves the library and heads to the first-year training ground.

- It already reserved? Who reserved it?

He walks inside and he heads to the bench. He looks carefully at the training grounds but there is nobody.

{Noah}

"Don't tell me that the person who reserved is late?"

Just as he finished that thought three people enters the training ground. These people are Abel, Gancelot and Juliana.

{Noah}

" That is quite the strange trio."

- Why did you call us here Gancelot? asks Juliana

- I have better things to do, Fayrak. says Abel

- I called you here to spar with you, Abel. says Gancelot

- What? replies Abel

- And, sis, I called you here to be the referee of our sparing match.

{Noah}

" Ooooh, Abel against Gancelot.... This is an interesting matchup. I guess I will stay and observe this." Noah thought while smiling

[Teacher's meeting room with all the first-year teachers]

- I think everybody knows why we are all gathered here. says Darius

- Get to the point, Darius. says Durmon Rokper, the teacher of the Green dorm's first years general class

- Have a bit more respect for the principal, Durmon. says Hugh Narb the teacher of the Red dorm's first-year general class

- Calm down! says Darius

Silence in the meeting room

- Let's now vote on whether Noah Arcadios should remain here, in the Academy, or be expulsed.
