"Magnum Sancti Lumine" Translation: Great Holy Light A bright light was formed in between John and his shadow. His shadow instantly shadow stepped away from the light leaving one of his daggers behind, seeing this, John finally figured out a way to win.
"Y-You... When did you...? You never had a spell like that before?!" Shouted his shadow
John who saw his shadow panick, found it rather amusing and chuckled as he said "That"s right... I created it now" Said John with a grin as he pointed his middle finger at the shadow
John then coughed out a bit of blood, He looked at the blood then he looked towards the shadow and noticed that it wasn"t approaching him. It was afraid of the light.
John used this opportunity to quickly pull the dagger out
"GAAH!" He screamed in pain once he managed to pull it out. Blood was pouring out of the wound, and his vision was starting to get blurry, he was also starting to get lightheaded.
However, he had no plans of losing. He broke the dagger and placed his hand over his wound as he said
"Percuro"
A Light was formed around his hand, and he kept it close to his wound, while focusing on the healing process.
"First was hesmotasis... *cough*"
The wound slowly began to close by clotting.
"Then... the inflammatory phase..."
Using magic, john sped up the healing process, which led to the creation of a white blood cell called neutrophils to enter the wound and remove debris
[Faster.... Faster] John thought to himself
The shadow then quickly snapped out of it"s fear, and realised that it had to stop john from healing himself, but by then...
"Then the proliferative Phase and the maturation phase."
When john said that a s.h.i.+ny, deep red granulation tissue filled the wound bed with a connective tissue, then john strengthened the tissue while making sure that it still had flexibility.
"Spicis tenebris." Said the shadow Translation: Dark Spike
John who felt an attack coming, propelled himself into the air, with velox duplici
The shadow, did the same and proplled himself into the air while saying "Velox"
But what happened after, surprised john. It wasn"t able to cast levite, and fell right back down.
Seeing this, John thought that it would be best to charge up an attack
"
Verum magna sphaera Atque Vale" Translation: Great True Flame Sphere
A small flame which gradually expanded in size over time, was formed right above john, the end result looked like the burning hot sun
It was so big and hot that it lit up the whole dark room, making it more visible, from john"s perspective, it looked like a white s.p.a.ce which had been clouded in darkness, but for some reason, that s.p.a.ce felt familiar...
However john didn"t have time to think about it now, he propelled the giant flame right at the shadow. It"s speed was rather slow, and the shadow who saw the giant sun heading towards him, grinned as he said "Velox"
He propelled himself straight at the flame, before disappearing, john turned around and he was right behind him in the sky. John then realised that he was inside of his range
"It"s over, give me your body." He said with a grin as he swung his dagger.
"I refuse." John Calmly replied
With his right hand, John parried the shadow"s dagger. Since the shadow had lost it"s other dagger, it had no way of defending from john"s swing with his left dagger, however to it"s surprise, John wasn"t holding a dagger at his left hand
John extended his left hand towards the shadow. An Orb of Light was formed slightly over his hand and when the shadow noticed what it was, it tried to teleport away, but it wasn"t fast enough.
John"s light sphere pierced the shadow and went right inside it. Cracks with light pouring out of him, started to form around the shadow"s body. It seemed to be growing weaker and weaker
"H-How... When did you..."
But before john could reply, The face of dispair on the shadow"s face turned into one of realization as it answered it"s own question
"Ah... I see... The light that lit up, the room wasn"t only from the flame... You had cast a light spell on top of it, while using the light coming from the flame to hide it... Haha... It"s my loss..." Said the shadow before turning into ash
"I"ll find a way to return your body one day... I promise, not to the shadow, but to the original owner of this body..." John muttered to himself
At the same time, the darkness which covered the room, disappeared, However, not completely, A quarter of the room was clouded in darkness, while the rest was full of light.
Tired, John looked towards, the light side of the room, there, he saw the figure of the lady that had saved him before.
"So that"s why it looked so familiar..." He muttered to himself
She waved at him to come over and he did
--------------------------------------------------
"ARGH, I can"t wait any longer, I"m going down there." Said Serena with an annoyed expression
With the same expression, on her face, John"s master didn"t try to stop serena at all. Ariel was surprised by serena"s sudden action, and had already planned on going with her
Serena was annoyed by how, John"s master, looked like she didn"t care about john"s death, and wanted to say something, but thought it"d only be a waste of time
Instead walked towards the edge, only to be stopped by Master"s older brother
"I"m saying this for your own good, you won"t save him, and you don"t meet the requirements to face the trial. You"ll die." Said master"s brother
"We don"t care." They simultaneously replied
"Alright..." Said Master"s brother as he stepped aside
As Serena and Ariel stood at the edge and looked down, they were starting to feel a bit nervous, however, that wasn"t going to stop them
They were about to jump, when all of the sudden, Something grabbed on to their shoulders.
s.h.i.+vers travelled through their bodies as they nearly sprung off the edge, then they turned around only to see John. There was a trace of shadow around him, and his eyes were clouded in darkness, but they were too happy to notice.
"John!" Ariel shouted as she jumped at it him while giving him a hug, she was so happy it moved him
And Serena went off script as she started to tear up as she slowly hugged him, but she hid it by putting her face on his cloak.
As his heart beat at a speed which made him feel like he was going to have a heart-attack John happily and embarra.s.sedly hugged them back while trying not to think to hard of it. looking at his master and her brother, for the first time, he saw master with a surprised expression
