Chereads / The Dark Magi's Ascension / Chapter 11 - Difficulty {2}

Chapter 11 - Difficulty {2}

"Even the smallest person can change the course of the future."

—Lord of the rings, J. R. R. Tolkien.

『I need a plan.』

I can't rush into a frozen temple like this.

I need a strategy.

[If your mother and that girl are able to get into that easily and alive then you can too.]

I crossed my arms.

『I don't know whether if those two giant frozen Knight would attack right at me. Since I don't see any bloodshed there. I might enter it safely. But how did my mother get into place easily in this temple by hiding from the villagers? I'll know when I inside of it and how I do open this giant no door?』

I thought of something.

[You guessed it right. Use your magic to turn your body into «Stealth Mode», find a weak spot of these frozen Knights and enter the frozen temple to find your mother.]

I closed my eyes.

I equipped my previous black red gauntlets in my arms.

I channeled my magic into my whole body, making it invisible in thin air.

I started to skate into the direction of the entrance

When I reached near the frozen Knight, two of them got alarmed by something. In their eyes, a blue light flickered. They started moving from the side and facing in my direction. They swung both of their swords at my front, shooting frost magic from the tips of their swords at me.

'Shit. They found me out!'

The frozen ice charged at me, I skated at the left side of the attack, dodging barely from it. As I looked in the direction where I stood. There were huge icicles mountains spreading on top of the frozen lake. I heard my heart kept thumping faster in fight or flight mode. My sweat dripped from my cheek and turned into ice drops. I gasped as I inhaled and exhaled a lot of cold oxygen. My body was trembling nonstop at this when the wind grew much colder from that attack. I heard the crackling sound of crisp ice freezing on top of lake's surface.

It wasn't the battle in the court, it was different. I'm here facing two giant magical frozen knights.

But I'm going to overcome them.

I know a way.

[I'm thinking the same.]

Let's try it then.

Since I'm small then I'd work.

I skated as fast as I ran on the court.

I prepped my two gauntlets and transformed its nails like big black red blades.

They came right at me.

STOMP-!!!

With each step they came near me with more frost magic impact increased by the waves of ice coming thrust forward with [Creek] sound. It made the pond more icy.

They shot two icicles at me this time. I extended both of my hands to cut through them. I jumped at them and rotated my body. The gauntlets' blade became wider as it touched the tip of the icicles.

I sliced both of the icicles into four pieces!

The blade is damn sharp.

But I felt real pain in my arms.

But there's still a lot to come.

I falled down onto the ice surface.

As if the icicles falled on the lake.

CRACK!

There were pits cracked on the ice from the impact of fallen ice. I kept my breath inside of me in that minute. I inhaled the cold air again in my lungs, and gasped from exhaustion. I felt the raw pain on my tiny joints which slightly glistened with wounds. I heard the sounds of ice submerge into the lake. I glared at them.

I still skated with max speed.

Now they are both running at me.

They raided their colossal sword at me with pouring frost magic.

I skated with them.

It's head on battle right now!

They swung both swords from left and right direction.

As I jumped yet again, this channeled the black magic on the skates to skyrocket my body in the sky.

I reached the pinnacle of the sky. I could see the horizon within my eyes. It was a full moon night. I inhaled a lot of oxygen as I felt the force of gravity pulling myself to fall on the ground. I felt air pulling myself in the mouth of a vacuum pump. I shoot myself like a bullet.

It's going to hurt a lot.

[Now let's use Black Armor !!!]

I nodded.

[Black Armor Mode!!!]

They start to use frost Magic ice beams to kill me in 1 hit.

Last bit of black magic which was in me used to channel into black red armour. My full body was covered in black red colored armour.

I felt the coldness of the beam on my body. It hurted a little thanks to this armor. Now is the time to absorb its power and use it against them. I gritted my teeth, I put forth both of my arms between the ice beams. I felt the chilly coldness sweep through my hands.

[Absorb everything they have!!!]

I don't want to give up.

This is the final chance I got.

And I won't waste it.

Even if I have to break my limitations!

Author's note:

There won't be a 2nd chapter. Out of personal reasons I'm busy. As life has more unpredictable circumstances befalls on you when.
