Chapter 477
After the long chant, a brilliant ball of golden lightning appeared on Lawrend’s palm as he pointed it downwards. The purple lightning mana from the surroundings was gathered and formed a cylindrical wall around it.
*ZOOM!*
The sound of the air getting sucked was made. A long pillar of golden light fell to the ocean from Lawrend’s palm.
The ocean shattered, and a huge amount of water was splashed around. If someone looked down, they would see the light of the golden pillar shining to the bottom of the ocean.
There were pockets of air between it and the ocean. The high heat of the lightning pillar evaporated the water immediately.
A giant tsunami rose with the pillar at the center.
Aezel flew backward in fear. The power of Lawrend’s spell was greater than hers.
A few seconds later, the golden pillar faded, and a huge 1-kilometer gap was left under him. Once the spell was done, Lawrend immediately flew away.
He experienced them enough times for him to know that a huge splash would shoot up from that huge hole.
The deepest part was the first one to get re-filled with the ocean water. And then it went up like a tide. It created a powerful force that pushed the ocean water upwards.
*DUNN*
The ocean splashed upwards and touched the clouds.
Lawrend stood beside Aezel a few kilometers away.
“M-Master, is that really your spell?” Aezel asked with fear marked on her face.
It was almost as if a Water Grand Mage cast his own spell.
“I don’t believe it too…” Lawrend replied wryly.
He didn’t expect it to be that powerful even though he was a Grand Mage that was already as powerful as an Earth Mage. That was even more powerful than a nuclear explosion.
He wasn’t sure, but he could probably create a hole in the earth if he pointed it downwards. If one spell can’t do it, then he could do it by using the spell repeatedly.
“How much mana do you still have left, Master?” Aezel asked.
“I can cast it two more times,” Lawrend replied.
“T-Two more times…”
Aezel was amazed.
When an Arch Mage casts an Arch Mage spell, they would usually have half of their mana left. That logic applied to the other levels. For him to be able to cast it two more times meant that his spell was very efficient.
“You’re amazing, Master! Do you still need to learn the defensive spell I know?”
Because of the power of his spell, she thought he didn’t need it anymore. He could just kill them before they could kill him.
“Of course. I can’t cast this spell fast enough anyways,” Lawrend replied.
It was an obvious answer for him.
“Fufufufu. I was joking, Master,” Aezel replied with a smile on her face.
“Alright. Show me this defensive spell.”
“O’ Lord of Thunder, the skies are clear, thunderclouds are gathered, cover my front, gather them as my shield, protect me from harm, Thunderstorm’s Defense!” Aezel chanted.
The clouds in the sky disappeared, and crackling thunder appeared in front of her. Suddenly, dark clouds covered a dome shape in front of her. The dark clouds became thicker and thicker until it became a small thunderstorm shield.
Small golden lightning arced all over the shield. It gave off a powerful and suppressing aura.
“Try to attack me with your Arch Mage spell, Master,” Aezel said.
Lawrend nodded his head and pointed his palm to her. The lightning mana in his body gathered to his palm, and he shot it out.
A single arc of lightning split into countless pieces and headed in a single direction. It created a lightning beam of destruction.
Aezel turned solemn, and the lightning beam hit her shield.
*BOOM!!*
A thunderous boom exploded. The air in front of her shield became scorching hot, and arcs of golden lightning exploded outwards.
Aezel was unscathed, and so was her shield. After all, it was as strong as an Earth Mage. She used a Grand Mage spell, but it made it a level more powerful because she used the golden lightning and chanted the spell.
“I will attack more,” Lawrend said.
He actually never tried continuously casting Lightning Beam spells. He wanted to try it ever since he created the spell.
“J-Just don’t do it too much, Master,” Aezel replied.
She was scared that he would kill her by accident. After all, his spells were more destructive compared to normal spells.
Even the shield she was using was just a normal spell she bought from someone in the Altro Federation.
“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you,” Lawrend said.
He pointed his left palm, and another lightning beam shot out.
He alternated between his two palms and bombarded her with his lightning beam spells.
*BOOM!* *BOOM!*
Someone far away from them might mistake the sounds as a thunderstorm. Aezel felt as if she was suffering the wrath of a god.
Her shield shook every time he hit it. Not to mention, she was losing mana rapidly.
“Master, stop!” Aezel shouted.
Lawrend faintly heard her voice, and he stopped.
“You don’t have any more mana?” Lawrend asked.
“Y-Yes,” Aezel replied in a stutter.
If she lost any more mana, she would be unable to fly back with him.
That was because she had already cast an offensive magic spell earlier. Together with maintaining the defensive spell, she was almost spent up.
“Alright. I fairly understand how that spell worked,” Lawrend replied.
While he was bombarding her with his lightning beam spells, he was watching the shield intently. He used his new eyesight to discern how it worked. So far, he could understand its inner workings.
“Master, you’re really amazing. I could never compare to you,” Aezel said with admiration sparkling in her eyes.
She wasn’t really wrong to have him impregnate her. She won the biggest lottery in her life.
“I’m merely lucky,” Lawrend replied and shook his head.
He was lucky because he wasn’t from this world. His understanding of physics was much more advanced than theirs. It meant that he could use magic to its greatest advantage.
