Chapter 23 - CHAPTER 23 : Mutation

[Ryujin's POV]

It has been two days since my duel. Ciel and I had already made up and even finished our project.

During these weekend,I only stayed at home and went to the naga dungeon.Today I might finish conquering the dungeon as well. I had anticipated to finish the dungeon in two weeks but my progess was extremly faster than I had imagined.

I had taken a leave from Atropis as well. I had made the relics they would need for two months.

It was 9:10 am. I was going to my class with Aqua and Cary.Aqua looked batered because of the training.

Once we reached the class,I could see Adam talking with Akio and Alice.They were group members for the theory class.Looks like they were in tough spot as three of them couldn't sort out their topic.

I hit Adam in his back and said"Looks like you might fail on your first project."

Adam made a frown and just started writing his report.They still had not finished their project.

Ciel was behind Akio sitting with Anna. I looked at Ciel and our eyes met.She quicly looked down.I wonder why does she do that?

Arlo entered the classroom and each one of us gave our presentation one by one.After everybody finished their presentation,Arlo said

"Except Ciel and Ryujin everybody will get a C garde.Group K has done excellent."He then looked at me and Ciel and just smiled.

During our practical lesson Arlo made an announcement.

"Next week you guys are going to have mock battle with your classmates.The battle will be done in squad so train with you squad members and improve your teamwork."

Everyone in my group was willing to co-operate except Lucius.This guy was hard to talk to.He even pushed Adam when he tried to talk with him.

None of my squad member seemed to like him.

Arlo then looked at me and added"As we all know Ryujin's is in a league of it's own.Even a third year couldn't get past him and I know for a fact none of you can break through it as well.He could erase your every attack and whole body if he wanted to."

When he said that everybody looked at me.Most of them were frightened while some wanted to test my ability.

Arlo then looked at me and said"From now on during our mock test,you are not allowed to use a.You can still train with it.

If you use your then every mock test will end in your favour."

The students were relieved but they also were angry with themselves because I had to get a handicap so they could have a chance to win.

I walked towards my squad and said"Let's train toegther after 5pm."

Cary then looked at Lucius and said"What about him?"

"Haa!"I rubbed my forehead and said" We will train without him until next battle after that we will try again to talk with him.Lets not force him.It will only ruin our chemistry."

All three of them nodded their head.

After I talked with those guys I went to the naga dunegon.Today was the day I killed the boss.

Once I entered the dungeon,I used my sixth sense and I could detect eleven nagas.Ten of them were

C-rank. The boss was B-rank.

As I walked further inside the dungeon,the environment changed completely. The area was all swampy and was filled with mud.

The area behind me only had some weird land terrain but this area was mutated.

At first I casted a spell"A small orb of light appeared infornt of me.The area was dark and I could barely see anything infront of me.

I could sense any thing but still seeing things could make a difference.

I used my mana to give my self a float while walking on the swamp.

I could sense something coming from behind.I turned around and soon three nagas jumped at me.

All of them were carrying a spear. Two of the nagas attacked me.One from the right and one from the left.

Swoosh!Swoosh!

I jumped back and dodged the attack.The third naga threw it's spear at my head.Since I was mid air,It was hard for me to dodge the attack.I rotated my body and the spear grazed my left cheek.

If I had used Kairos,I could have easily erased the spear. As soon as I landed two nagas attacked me from behind.

One of nagas swung it's sword at my leg and another one at my head.I rotated and escaped from the attack through the gap.

Now there were five nagas infront of me and I could sense other coming behind me. It would take them ten minutes to reach here.

Before that I had to finish the five infront of me.I took out the cleaver knife from God's ring.

Then I rushed toward the five nagas.I chanted""My speed increased. I swung my knife towards one of the nags but it dodged it easily.The other four jumped at me and attack me from above.

I then lifted my hand and casted".Soon six spears fromed around my body and fired at the nagas.

The nagas blocked the attack with their sword and I jumped back.Even though they had blocked the attack it had still damaged them.

The nagas started hissing at me

Hiss!Hiss!

One of those naga jumped at me.Looks like it had received the most damage.It thrusted it spear towards my chest.

It acted because if its anger .I dodged it's attack and sliced its neck.The naga head rolled down.I garbbed its head and chanted".I threw the head towrads other nagas. Once the head reached the nagas it exploded.

"Boom!"The head exploded and the surrounding area started shaking.The ceiling collapsed and the four nags were crushed by the rocks.

The nagas started hissing visiciously"Hiss!Hiss!"

Only their tail was crushed so I stabbed all of them and killed them.

I could sense other nagas were already behind me. All of these nagas were wearing robs and had wands in their hand.

"Looks like you guys are mage class"I thought to myself.Those nagas started chanting.Before they could finish their spell I rushed at them but I was late.

The mud of the swamp started to sway.My footing didn't have proper hold so I fell on the mud.

Soon hundreds of vines came at me.

"" I chanted the spell and three blades surrounded me and started rotating.The vines couldn't reach me and were cut apart.

I got out of the mud.Half of my body was now covered in mud.

"I will kill you and sell you corpse and buy me some new clothes."I said while looking at them.

I rushed at those nagas but this time I ran on the side wall of the dunegon.The nagas kept firing their spell but they missed.

The distance between me and the nagas was now 5 meters.I chanted"" Soon smoke came out of my hand and covered the area.

The nagas couldn't see and smell me because of the smoke.My movement was nimble so they couldn't even hear me.

I went behind their back and chanted""

Soon tens of wind blades attacked them from behind. At first five blade was aimed at their neck but the attack didn't even leave a sratch.

Then the other five blade synergized with the first blade and made a cut on their neck but the cut was nottoo deep to kill them.

The nagas were hurt so they started chanting their spell and threw it everywhere without even knowing where I was.

Some of their attacks even hit their troops. I got away from the smoke and casted"The smoke was now lighted and the nagas inside the area started to burn.

The attack could only damage them but because of the cut on their neck the flame entered their body and burned them from inside.

"Hiss!Hiss!"The nagas strated hissing in pain.After two minutes the flame died and the nagas were dead.

Looks like I burned them to crisp that is why the dunegon started to smell like burnt steak.

"I told you to see your corpse but looks like you were burnt too much." I sadi that while kicking it's dead body.

All of the nagas in the dunegon were dead and now it was time for the boss
