Physics The Greatest Magic

John and the spirit stared at each other with their weapons at hand, and right before they were about to engage in a fight, Ariel called out to John

"John! Duck!" Shouted Ariel.

The instant he heard those words John ducked down and a second later, a wind spear travelled slightly above him towards the hell spirit.

Instead of dodging, the spirit simply cut the wind spear by thrusting his. The three of them were surprised at what just happened, and that performance that he just performed made John feel slightly nervous.

'Water beats fire, right..? It can't be that hard…' John thought.

"Velox!"

He propelled himself straight at it, at point blank distance. It thrust its spear at John but didn't hit. John cast furtim midair, and the spirit lost sight of him. As John managed to get behind him, he propelled himself once more in an attempt to pierce his back and freeze him like he did to do the horse.

But before John could, he did a full 360 turn and swung his spear with a momentum. John barely managed to dodge it by propelling himself downwards the instant he saw him going for that.

Now that John was only a few steps away from him, without turning back, he lept at him as he stretched out his dagger in the form of a thrust.

Right before it pierced him, the spirit turned his body, causing John's dagger to go right past him. Midair, while John was still being carried by the momentum, the spirit turned his body to where he was at and thrust downwards.

Despite being so close to death, John didn't give up. He cast velox' and propelled himself to the side. It was a battle to see who was faster.

If John's velox was slower he would get pierced right then and there. If his velox was faster then he'd live.

'Make it in time!!' John exclaimed.

He barely escaped and ended up with a small cut wound on the side of his stomach. It also felt as if it got burnt at the same time.

John took a leap away from it and the spirit thrust its spear and as he did, luckily it only grazed his chest.

'What the hell is wrong with that thing? It's automatically attacking me... Doesn't that spirit have a soul? What's worse is how it was able to attack me, even though I've activated furtim, my strongest stealth spell?' John wondered.

'Damn it... What should I do? Should I spam glacies on it? No... It'll just deflect them with its speed... If only it were bigger... That's right! Bigger! I need something bigger! Something it can't deflect!'

As John thought of such things, the Hell spirit changed its target from him the two girls who had attacked it earlier on as it couldn't see him.

It rushed at Serena and Ariel and Serena propelled the 5 arrows at it while Ariel propelled ventuses hidden right behind them.

It underestimated the strength of the arrows and just avoided them, but before it realised it was hit by something more than arrows.

Ariel's hidden ventures hit him straight on, while Serena's Arrows had fooled him. What's more is that it noticed that it wasn't able to move.

John had cast gravitas on it. As it sensed danger, it turned around to find the cause only to be greeted by a giant ball of water floating right above its head.

"Thank you for distracting it, Serena, Ariel. Now then, Magnum aqua!" John said as he propelled the giant ball of water straight at it.

The ball was very big. If Serena and Ariel hadn't brought John time by attacking it and if it hadn't changed, it's aggro on to them, he wouldn't have been able to do this.

"Man, you sure are unlucky. But in the end, water always beats fire." John uttered.

It tried moving away from the attack but couldn't. It didn't have as much strength as the spider queen, so it wasn't able to move properly in 20x gravity, so it ended up getting hit head-on by the water.

The instant the water hit it, lots of steam filled the room as its body's fire continued to evaporate the water.

A wave was created by some of the water that hadn't evaporated and hit both Ariel and Serena, who were within the radius.

John flew over to them and dried them as they waited for the steam to disperse. As it slowly dispersed, they could see a silhouette of his figure. It was still standing

"Don't tell me he survived that too..." John muttered.

Ariel and Serena, who heard that made nervous expressions as they continued to stare at the silhouette.

If it had survived that, then they were all in deep trouble. John had used up all the remaining magic in his stones. They were out of charge for the day.

Once the steam dispersed, they could clearly see the hell spirit.

"It still wants to fight?" Asked Serena as she tightly gripped her staff.

"No, it's already dead." John replied.

Its flames, which were dim a second ago, had extinguished, at the same time white cracks appeared on its skin like the Nightmare horse and it turned to ash.

"It went out like a true warrior..." John muttered.

"Maybe hell spirits are warriors who died in battle and came back from hell," Said Ariel.

They both looked at Ariel with surprised expressions.

"Eh- Ah- N-Nevermind..." Said Ariel.

"No, that actually makes sense. Whatever it was, I hope it found peace." Said Serena.

"Yeah, me too..." Said Ariel.

After it turned to ash, the nightmare horse who hadn't turned into a magic core yet also turned into ash.. Shortly after, a single magic core was formed in the middle of the room and the door to the next room opened.
