1 minute later, Alvin reached the place where they encountered the Thuninon. He saw the large footprint of the Thuninion, at the right side.
He squinted his eyes and ran towards the right side of the forest. Soon, from far, he could see Mr Elias was running, following by the huge Thuninion. Although Mr Elias was dealing the Thuninion alone, his expression remained calm and indifferent, as if he didn't worry about it.
The Thuninion was roaring and chasing Elias as if a cruel predator. Elias looked weak and helpless in Alvin's eyes.
Thuninion was just 1 meter behind Mr Elias. Under normal condition, Thuninion only needed one jump to get to Mr Elias.
Normally Thuninion didn't dare to approach them because Mr Elias had the powder that prevent low rank monster to come near.
But now, due the death of its son, the Thuninion was in anger and rage.
"Teacher!" Alvin exclaimed as he saw Mr Elias was at such a dangerous position.
Hearing that, Elias frowned, tilted his head and looked backward. "Why come back"
he muttered helplessly as he saw Alvin and passed his hand over his forehead.
Alvin summoned his cloud and cast his first spell, Wind Blade.
A whoosh filled his ears as the white wind blade shot out, aimming at Thuninion.
Thuninion was fast in its response. Thuninion turned around and blocked the wind blade with its wing. Its eyes turned bloodshot with anger as Thuninion recognised that was its kid's spell.
*Roarrr
Instantly, Thuninion changed target to Alvin.
With two jump, Thuninion reached 2 meters in front of Alvin. The dust and sand filled the air because of Thuninion's jump.
Alvin squinted his eyes and cast another two wind blade. As the two wind blade were shooting out, Alvin was retreating backwards.
While retreating, Alvin took out the dagger and prepared for his best attack. This was his first time trying out this strategic.
Alvin gazed at Thuninion, looking for opportunity. As expected, Thuninion blocked the previous wind blades easily, its wing was strong and thick.
After blocking the wind blade, Thuninion opened its mouth. A strong purple thunderstorm shot at Alvin.
Without wasting time, Alvin rolled on the floor, avoiding the thunderstorm.
*Booooom
The thunderstorm damaged the ground, turning the grasses into black colour.
"My turn" Alvin stood up and said, his speed like lighting.
"Wind blade" With a raise of his right hand, Alvin cast another wind blade, aiming at Thuninion's eyes. Eyes was the weakness of all animal. He believed it was the same for Thuninion. While his right hand was casting the wind blade, he threw the dagger with his left hand, aimming at the ground in front of Thuninion.
Even though he just got this cloud spell, he was quite skillful at it. The wind blade was quick and accurate, shot towards Thuninion's eyes. As of the dagger, it was shooting to the ground.
In response, Thuninion cover the eyes with its wing, blocking the wind blade. Thuninion didn't do any to block the dagger because it wasn't aimming at him.
Seeing that, Alvin grinned. Next second, strange thing happened as the dagger almost hit the ground. The dagger suddenly changed its direction, aimed at Thuninion's stomach.
It was the object manipulation. Alvin was controlling the trajectory of the dagger.
*boooppp
The dagger pierced through Thuninion's stomach. With a roar, Thuninion flied up to the sky, bleeding.
All these happened in a short time. Due to the distance and visibiliy, Alvin realised Elias didn't see his object manipulation skill.
Just after Thuninion left, Elias reached. He was gazing at Alvin with shock, touched.
* roarrr roarrr
After a few roar, Thuninion flied away and left.
Alvin was breathing heavily, his heart pumping like crazy, but he was smiling. Although it was a tough fight, he won. He managed to chase the Thuninion away.
"Lets go home." Elias said as he took another glance at Alvin. There was a complicated emotion in his gaze.
...
In the carriage, Elias looked at Alvin, patted his head and said."Don't be so kind, don't be hero. Not worth it."
"But teacher Elias was here because I need a cloud spell." Alvin said with a firm gaze. Deep down in his heart, he didn't want Mr Elias die.
Elias sighed helplessly and gave Alvin a short nod.
"We got some gain today. I collected the fur and wing of the Thuninion. Probably can sell it for 1000 dollars. So, 1 person can get 500 dollars." Elias said.
Alvin raised his brow as he heard that.
"Really? 500 dollars?" Alvin grinned ear to ear. 500 dollars. It was 500 dollars. Previously, he needed to pick branches for 1 months to save 500 dollars. It was a big money to him.
In total, Alvin earned a total of 500 dollars and a rank 2 cloud spell. Although the journey was tough, the result was great.
On the way back, they sold the fur and wing for 1000 dollars, making each person 500 dollars.
Alvin bought some magic material and potion with 200 dollars. For the rest of the 300 dollars, he would save it and use for his daily expenses.
...
3 months later, in a training room. A white colour blade stretched across the room, breaking a marble ball into two pieces in the air. The broken marble ball fell on ground.
*beeps
"0.5 seconds" Mr Elias said with a calm voice as he click the button the timer.
Then, he picked up the marble ball on the floor and took a glance at it.
"3mm away from the center" Mr Elias said as he measured the marble ball.
"Yes." Alvin exclaimed in joy. He was the one who cast the wind blade in the training room. He had been practising the spell for three months.
Initially, his casting speed was around 2 seconds and his accuracy was around 50mm.
The result was even worse when he was moving while casting the spell.
Now, he was able to cast a wind blade in 0.5 seconds with the accuracy of 3mm. This was a great result.
