They are afraid of what will happen to the two as these two are considered to be pillars of this city but at the same time their blood boil thinking that these two formidable Mystics are going to fight

The fight between the two was sure to be an exciting one

"Accept the consequences of your actions son of a b.i.t.c.h!" With a furious shout Kence started attacking first

His first attack was actually one of his powerful skills. Kence want to finish this fight quick as what he is fighting was someone on the same level than him and unlike fallens who don't have the same intelligence as humans this one was different!

He can also feel some sort of oppression from Sun's aura as if the man before him was a being higher ranking than him. This was the same feeling when a [Normal Rank] creature was in front of a [Supernatural Rank]

Two of his tree body's root come out from the ground and he also transformed his arms into roots

"[Combination Magic: Spiraling Roots!]" The four roots intertwined with each other as if it was some sort of a drill that wished to pierced Sun's body

The pages of the grimoire of the Mage turned violently as the black aura around him intensifies

"[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: Scorching Demon Claw]" the Mage calmly said the name of his skill

A two meters long demonic looking black claws made of black fire formed in front of the Mage's palm. The temperature in the surrounding rose, thankfully he was still just in the first stage of [Supernatural Rank] and no matter how powerful a Rank 1 is, it was still not enough to cause ma.s.sive damage

His words shocked everyone, this skill of his was similar to his Magic Skill: Fire Claws but the name changed and so its appearance

Before, the claw only looks like an ordinary claw made from fire but now the tranformed skill brought with it a demonic oppressive feeling as if the world itself was helping to make this skill

Even Kence was affected by this oppression but he chose to not pay attention to this oppressive feeling as he was not sure that this fight will be a dangerous one

The Spiraling Roots and Demonic Claw slammed on each other, the claw burned the roots but the roots also made the claw consumed its energy until it become a claw that was only ten inches

However this ten inches long claw still flew towards Kence's direction

Sun actually gained the upperhand in this round!

One of the tree's roots come out from the ground again and blocked this demonic claw effortlessly as the energy remaining was not something it cannot take

Kence can't believe what happened, before this he was sure that he was far more powerful than Sun and even if Sun also broke through in the peak-stage they would at least be on par but the result showed that he might be weaker than the Mage

"Only so-so" Sun sneered clearly looking down at Kence however even though he was almost sure that he is more powerful than Kence the black aura around him still affects his emotions

He started feeling envious at how Kence become a Rank 1: peak stage faster than him

This envy angered him, he should be the one that is always ahead than everyone!

Kence was angered at his arrogant words

If he was powerful then why resort to sending an a.s.sa.s.sin if he can just kill him directly?

Sun sent an a.s.sa.s.sin but he was the one looking down at the other, how can he be this shameless?!

"Don't celebrate early!" Kence's green aura emerge and intensifies

A couple of yellow colored fruits from his tree body descended in front of him while from his palm green colored energy came out that was absorbed by these fruits

The yellow color of the fruits become more vibrant

"Taste my fruits! [Fruit Creation Magic: Enhanced Explosive Fruits!]"

The fruits surrounded Sun and he has now no place to dodge the fruits but the calmness on his face didn't diminished. The page of his grimoire once again violently turned its page until it stopped on a certain page

"[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: h.e.l.l Flame Barrier!" Around him dancing black flames formed. These flames enlarge itself until it covered the area around him

BOOM!!

The fruits finally reached him and it exploded, fortunately the flame barrier protected Sun if not then he will surely sustain heavy injuries

However the barrier did not managed to fully protect him as the number of the fruits gave an advantage and it managed to destroy the barrier thus Sun gained some light injury

Kence took this chance to attack once again

"[Innate Skill: Sword Root!]" Unlike the normal transformation of his hands to root that only has a sharp end on it this time the whole root become sword shape and every part of it can be use as a real sword to slice, hack or pierce someome

Kence launched himself towards Sun as he doesn't want to give Sun a chance to retaliate. Too bad his oppenent's reaction was quite good

Sun unfolded his black wings and kicked the ground, the force of the kick propel him upwards and with the help of his wings he flew a few meters from the ground

Kence also kicked the ground to propel him upwards and use his floating skill to try catching up to Sun to hack him with his sword root

Once again, the grimoire's page turned "[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: h.e.l.l Flame Shower!]" This skill was also similar to his previous skill the only difference was its nature change into something demonic

Without a choice Kence decided to halt as Sun was above him while the sparks of black flames are descending down to him

He waved his root sword and glowing leaves appeared. This leaves are different from his usual leaves

Before, his tree body was inside him and he can use its leaves to attack but now he left his tree body that cannot move on the ground so he can only resort to make his own leaves

The power of the leaves was almost similar when he used his own leaves but the energy expenditure was way higher

The leaves meet the sparks of black flames, Kence used his leaves to block!

Seeing this, envy once again consumed Sun. He clearly was more powerful than Kence but Kence can still fight him head on while from the previous exchange was actually in favor to Kence as he sustained light injury from the fruits

After successfully blocking the flame, Kence once again looked towards Sun but the sight met him was multiple beams of fire

"[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: Demonic Fire Beam!]" Sun was once again consumed by his envy, he wants to burn Kence as fast as possible and to show the world that he was the strongest!

Kence's eyew constricted and he tranformed his body into roots as fast as he can

The beams pierced a lot of hole in his wood body while some flame was left on the holes threatening to burn Kence's whole body

Kence quickly used the energy inside his body to extinguish the fire which he become only successful after using a lot of his energy

The fire was too powerful!

As shameful as it was Kence retreated towards his tree body but the Mage won't let him and Sun chases after him

"[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: Demonic Serpents!]" Black serpetine like fire snakes numbering in about ten agilely flew towards Kence

Kence gritted his teeth and decided to bite the bullet

"[Innate Skill: Leaf Storm!!]" Around Kence a storm of glowing green leaves appeared. The leaves slice the snakes but it was only burned in return and slightly used up the snake's energy

Thankfully, the leaves numbered in a bit more than a hundred and it managed to destroy all the fire serpents and Kence successfully reached his tree body

Without wasting any time Kence pluck one of the Blue Fruits and ate it. Soon, energy was filling Kence's body as the energy he spent before was slowly being replenished

"[h.e.l.l Flame Magic: Demonic Serpents!]" Once again black fire serpents formed that launched theirselves towards Kence

Tens of roots emerged from the ground that confronted the snakes, however as if they are real snakes the fire serpents coiled around the roots and crawl towards Kence leaving scorching marks on the root

Too bad he was a tree and fire is his weakness

It was at this time that King and the others reached the Mage's Villa to see Kence being in the disadvantage against his opponent

This was the first time they saw their Master being the weaker one and they almost cannot believe what they are seeing

Calter on the other hand was not too focused on the fact that his master was being overwhelmed by the enemy but sensing the aura of Sun he can feel that something inside was boiling giving him the feeling that he wants to stop Sun

However, he quickly regained his senses. This is his master's fight and if even his master was in a disadvantage he would just become a burden!

Calter felt like that his diligence was not enough and he should have trained harder so that he has the right to protect and fight along side his master

Calter clenched his fist too hard that some blood leaked out but no one noticed this as they are too focused on the fight before them

"f.u.c.k you!" Kence furiously cursed

He used the leaves on his tree body to attack the serpents, more than a hundred leaves were used up in that single attack just to destroy ten serpents

Kence even thought that if this continued his original body might become a bald tree

"[Combination Magic: Double Leaf Storm!" More than a hundred leaves flew out from his tree branches while another more than a hundred leaves were formed around him

This Leaf's storm power was a level higher than his previous Leaf Storm but it also used up a lot of energy. Fortunately, he was now besides his tree body and he has quite a lot of Blue Fruits that he can use to replenish energy

The leaves flew to Sun who was immediately surrounded by more than two hundred leaves

Once again Sun used his barrier magic but it was quickly destroyed as the number of leaves around him are too much

The leaves sliced his body causing some injuries

To think that he become this strong but Kence can still pushed him into this state. He was envious at how Kence can easily become this strong and the negative black aura around him intensifies

"[Demonic Magic: Flaming Lance of Envy!" Before he has 'h.e.l.l Flame Magic' as his Magic's style and attribute but now he called his Magic a 'Demonic Magic' which is different from his previous style

Some of the black aura around him combined to form a Flaming Lance

Everyone who saw this lance felt some emotion inside them was being aroused. Even Kence was not an exemption for this, he started feeling envious at how Sun can have this flaming lance

Sun slashed his lance and the leaves around him immediately caught fire before vanis.h.i.+ng. He did it a couple of times until all the leaves disappeared

Sun looked at Kence with madness and he thrust his lance towards his oppenent's direction

Kence fished out some things on his pocket

He input some of his energy on it and suddenly vines covered with thorns grew from his two palms that aimed at Sun's body as Kence was sure that his vines would just burn if he tried attacking the Lance

"Innate Skill: Th.o.r.n.y Vines!" This was the skill he developed after he saw how the supernaturals accelerated the growth of the plants on the previous war

Sun sneered disdainfully as even without using his grimoire a few sparks of flame formed that landed on the vines causing it to burn

Kence felt that he was too stupid, how can he forgot that the Mage's grimoire only amplified the Mage's spell but even without it they can still use their Magic Skills!

However it was still too late for regret, gritting his teeth what he can only do is transform his body into wood as he though that his skill will stop Sun's advance towards him!

The lance pierced his body as the flames on it started burning his whole body but he cannot do anything. Kence can actually feel pain from the attack of this lance and if he do something else other than controlling his energy to stop the fire from burning him he was sure he would immediately die

It was at this time that the pure white light that enveloped Calter's Soul before emerged and enveloped him
