Chapter 1921 Battle Against the Daemos Elders I
“Great! Not only do I need to fight all of the Daemos Elders, but the gods are literally being such stalkers and peeping at me from the sky. It is not like I want to kill all of them. The ones that can be killed are those that do something wrong with the world.” Adrian grumbled as he went towards Ascalor once again.
Since both Elder Koronn and Elder Bronx are not in Avalon currently, Adrian decided to push through with Elder Ascalor’s test. Since the said elder is recuperating, Adrian thought that he would not be in combat with Elder Ascalor. He believes that he would be given a test or something as fighting is off the table.
“Elder Ascalor, I have come for a formal test in my proficiency with Spatial Magic of the Origin Magic.” Adrian stated as this was the formal way of asking the elders to evaluate them.
“Oh?! I did not think that the day would come.” Elder Ascalor stated as he suddenly smirked and created a portal that swallowed both him and Adrian.
Adrian was not even able to react as he was swallowed by the portal. He expected that they might go away, but he did not think that they would immediately do the test. He thought that he could be given instructions first and then be told to prepare. He did not know that Elder Ascalor was waiting for this time to happen.
“The Paradox Planes again?” Adrian stated as he is once again brought to the Paradox Planes.
“This is the test site as we would not be able to tamper with the space around the mortal realm. We do not want to suddenly create a rift or a tear in space while we are having our battle.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“Wait… fight? You did not even tell me what the test is and now you are already asking for a fight?” Adrian stated in shock.
“Why not? Combat is the best way to evaluate what one can do.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“But I thought that you are recuperating. We should maybe schedule this the day after or something.” Adrian stated as an excuse to move the match.
“Do not worry as I am mobile and healthy enough to floor you. Oh… how I have been waiting for this day to come. I just cannot hit the Champion of the Twin Gods without an excuse, but this is now the time for me to vent.” Elder Ascalor stated as he immediately transformed into his battle form.
“Your internal thoughts are suddenly getting said. You know what… maybe I am not ready yet. We can maybe schedule this in a month so that I am ready, and you are healed.”?Adrian stated as he started to open a portal back, but Elder Ascalor sealed the portal immediately.
“The rules of the evaluation are simple. The only spells and skills that you can use must be related to Spatial Magic. Other types of magic are not to be used as this would not be accurate should you use other magics. Begin!” Elder Ascalor stated as he immediately opened five wormholes that released shards of spatial energy that headed towards Adrian.
[All of your other skills will be sealed. Only spells and skills of the Spatial Element can be used.]
[Passive skills will not be locked.]
[Do your best against Elder Ascalor.]

Adrian immediately used Enhanced Blink to move further away and hide behind a floating rock debris. The spatial shards destroyed the floating rock as if it was tofu which made Adrian gulp. Elder Ascalor immediately started the next spell but creating ten more spatial vortexes.
“This cannot go on. I need to be able to defend myself.” Adrian thought as he suddenly used Paradox and poured a lot of mana into it.
“Take this!” Adrian shouted as he shot Paradox towards Elder Ascalor.
“Not bad!” Elder Ascalor stated as he controlled the spatial shards to hit Paradox.
All of the spatial shards crashed against Paradox, but it was not deterred. Elder Ascalor made sure to observe it and is amazed that the pure energy of space present in the weapon. The fact that even his attacks cannot break the weapon meant that is of a high caliber. He did not restrict Equinox in using weapons as that would weaken him too much.
“Black Space!” Elder Ascalor stated as the space in front of him suddenly folded.
“Did you think that is all I have? Vortex!” Adrian shouted as Paradox suddenly exploded into numerous pieces and created a powerful black hole.
Adrian appeared behind Elder Ascalor and grappled the old man. He made sure to have physical contact as this would make it unable for the elder to teleport away. With his powerful wings, Adrian pushed Elder Ascalor towards the black hole that he created using Paradox as a medium.
“Space Portal!” Elder Ascalor shouted as there was some panic in his voice.
A portal suddenly appeared in front of Elder Ascalor but the black hole that Adrian created is not weak. The black hole is powered by Paradox’ intelligence as well and started to swallow the portal that Elder Ascalor created. There was a hint of shock but also awe on the face of Elder Ascalor as he smiled.
“I guess I did underestimate you, brat. You are better than I initially thought since I always see you using summoning magic instead of Origin Magic. You have my respect which is why I should also be serious! Spatial Quake!” Elder Ascalor shouted as all of his portal wings suddenly fused together.
A powerful force suddenly ripped apart Adrian and Elder Ascalor which made Adrian’s eyes become white. He did not expect to be hit by such a powerful spell that felt like his entire body was being ripped apart. He did not even see how the attack happened, but he felt the space around him and the elder suddenly break.
“What just happened!” Adrian stated as he suddenly turned into particles of light.
[You have died.]
[There is no penalty upon dying in an evaluation match with an elder of the Daemos.]
[You will be revived in one minute.]
Adrian died from the powerful attack that hit both him and Elder Ascalor. The attack hit both of them completely, but it was only him that died immediately. He caught a glimpse of Elder Ascalor protecting himself, but he died before he could figure out what he did.
Adrian appeared in the Paradox Planes after a minute with an expression that could not be painted. He looked at Ascalor with great disappointment because that spell basically killed him in one shot. Even his defenses were ignored by that spell, but he had to accept that he lost.
“Was that spell even legal?” Adrian asked to make sure.
“Of course.” Ascalor stated as he looked away.
“It felt like you did not control the output because I can see that there is blood dripping out of your nose, Elder Ascalor.” Adrian stated as he pointed out the dripping blood from Elder Ascalor’s nose.
“It only means that you have pushed me to my best. I am now ready to give the rating for your mastery.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“Ok then. Please tell me.” Adrian stated as he thought that he would get a high rating since he made Elder Ascalor go serious.
“Your rating would be 50% mastery.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“50%? Are you sure it is not higher?” Adrian asked.
“Nope. Your rating is 50% and that is me being generous. It would have been more if you were able to escape and survive the Spatial Quake. I can see that you also have a powerful skill pertaining the space element since you can easily create and control black holes to a certain degree.
You would have been given more if you made the suction power of the black hole more powerful. Or you could have tagged your own body as the mass that needed to be inside the black hole. You failing to even make me get damaged by spatial magic is also a great minus to your rating.
You need more spells in the spatial department as I could easily destroy and detect your spatial mines. If you think that they did not detonate because of the space around here, then you are wrong. I have disabled them the moment I was able to detect them. It was a good try though as you were able to keep casting even if you were doing other things. Hence, the 50% rating that you received.” Elder Ascalor stated.
“In short, I am still inadequate when it comes to using spatial magic. What do I need to do to increase it and when is my next evaluation test?” Adrian asked.
