“Hokuto,” said Edward to summon his mighty dragon. And as soon as the dragon appeared, it opened its mouth to spray a powerful Lightning Breath.
Sun Magic: Solar Cover
A red cover with the sun’s power surrounded Zuriel to block the attack, which lasted for at least 30 seconds. Afterward, Zuriel panted while looking seriously at the dragon.
Solar Gun
The pages in Zuriel’s Grimoire flipped as he stabbed his sword forward. A small dot of solar energy rapidly gathered on the tip of his blade before a massive energy bean rushed toward Hokuto with ghastly speed.
The dragon could not respond in time, so after the attack, most of the dragon’s scales were burned, and he appeared more illusory as if he was about to disappear.
Edward waved a talisman to him and said: “Order.” Green lights enveloped the dragon as the power of nature healed his wound at a pace visible to the naked eye.
“Hokuto, use the Thunder Escape Tactic.”
The dragon roared to the sky before shooting another Lightning Breath at Zuriel. However, after the latter blocked the attack, the dragon suddenly turned into lightning and disappeared.
When he appeared, he was being Zuriel and used another attack; the dragon repeated the same tactic by constantly teleporting around his opponent and attacking from the sky.
After a few minutes of non-stop defending, Zuriel knew he could not remain on the defensive, so he used an AOE spell.
Sun Magic: Solar Flare
The red shield protecting him suddenly turned orange with a few white spots before expanding in all directions. And as it expanded, everything in its path was reduced to ashes.
Edward summoned Hokuto to stay behind him and clapped his hand together while rapidly chanting: “Akino asif nou pika toun poufheid.”
Ten giant icebergs appeared in front of him as a shield. However, Zuriel’s sun power melted the ice after a few seconds of confrontation. Subsequently, the ice turned into a massive ocean that submerged the heat of the solar flare.
As a result of this elemental confrontation, mist covered the entire sealed space. Edward acted quickly to write some characters in the air, and afterward, the mist in the surroundings suddenly turned into thousands of Ice Swords.
Zuriel’s face immediately became somber as he saw these swords. He has been a teacher in the Onmyou Royal Academy for some time, so he understood the magic system.
As such, he could tell these swords were not simple ice–or the subcategory of the water element–but also contained the Gold Element to increase their sharpness.
‘To be able to manipulate Ice, Water, and Gold to such an extent. Who is this person? Is he really from the Western Continent?’
Because the Western Continent only used one magic attribute, it is challenging for the people there to adapt to using multiple attributes–especially without a Grimoire.
After coming to this place, Zuriel wanted to become an Onmyou Mage teacher at the Academy, but it was difficult for him to adapt to the new magic system.
He had to learn many magical theories of different elements, the relationship between them, and how to properly control them for battle.
So, after considering the time it would take him to become a qualified mage and teacher, he decided to become a Samurai instead. However, he knew that “Ozuki Akimitsu” had only been in the Academy for over three months.
So, it was unfathomable to him for this individual to fight him using the eastern magic system.
Boom!
The ice swords landed on Zuriel, creating a shockwave that shook the Sealing Barrier Edward placed in the surrounding. However, after the smoke from the explosion vanished, Zuriel’s intact body appeared.
However, he was intact; his body had now completely turned red as if he was the sun incarnate. His every breath seemed to twist the space around him because of the intense heat.
Sun Magic: Light of the Sun
Zuriel turned into a red light to rush toward Edward. In an instant, he appeared in the latter’s position and slashed his sword down.
Bang!
The ground shook, and cracks appeared on the barrier. Luckily, Edward read Zuriel’s Ki and reacted in time by jumping on Hokuto’s back and flying in the air.
‘An attack based on the mass of the sun? Sun Magic is quite the interesting magic,’ thought Edward as he looked at the massive crater his opponent left where he previously stood.
Of course, Zuriel could not achieve the actual mass of the sun; otherwise, the entire continent would blow up.
Edward waved his hand to activate hundreds of talismans which reinforced the barrier and healed the already existing cracks. Then, he started chanting: “Lord Kokonochi, ruler of the Domain of Forest, I beseech thee to grant me absolute control of wood, and….”
As Edward chanted his spell, Zuriel continued his attacks on him by rushing and slashing with his swords or even using long-distance spells. At some point, he caught up to Edward, but Hokuto sent him flying away his tail, burning it in the process.
It took Edward 1.5 seconds to finish the chant, and he suffered close to a hundred attacks in the process. Luckily, he learned a lot about Ki Sensing in class and the knowledge he previously stole from the nobles.
“Ten Thousand Buddha Arm.”
A wooden Buddha with more than 1000 arms appeared, and Edward jumped into its head. One arm slammed against Zuriel with extreme force. However, the wooden arm burned upon impact.
Nevertheless, the other arms continued their barrages of attacks, and each time an arm was burned, another regrew to replace the destroyed one.
With the constant attacks, Zuriel found his mobility impaired. So, he decided to increase the temperature around his body to burn the attacking arms at a much faster rate,
Anyway, he had the elemental advantage of fire over wood. Or so he thought.
A few seconds into this confrontation, Zuriel noticed his mana was reducing at an alarming rate; the wooden arms could absorb mana. Knowing he could not continue like this, he quickly went on the offensive.
Sun Magic: Sun Explosion
A mini sun the size of five basketballs appeared in his palm before throwing at the Wooden Buddha. Hundreds of the wooden arms were instantly vaporized by the sun’s heat.
So, Edward took out four talismans and threw them at the mini suns. They positioned themselves in four positions before forming a cube-shaped transparent barrier surrounding the sun.
Boom!
The mini sun exploded, but the barrier managed to withstand the attack. At the same time, Zuriel prepared to attack again since he felt his mana running at an all-time low.
However, he sensed something above him and looked up. He saw Hokuto with his mouth opened and a thunder ball more than 2 meters in diameter. Before he could react, the Shikigami fired the thunder ball.
Sun Magic: Gravity of a Star
A powerful gravity shield appeared to protect Zuriel from the Thunder Ball. However, he soon discovered that the absorption rate of his mana suddenly increased.
He looked at his feet where he saw a little tree sapling next to him; it was so small that he did not even notice when it appeared next to him.
Zuriel’s face became pale. After using such a high-level spell and having his mana absorbed, he was almost running out.
‘It’s about time,’ thought Edward before clapping his hands. Then, countless circular runs and characters that seemed to be written in black ink appeared in all four corners of the barrier.
Subsequently, silver chains came out from all directions to bind Zuriel’s body.
“Mantra, Talisman, Shikigami, Ceremonies, and Sealing Art. In such a short time, you have mastered all the advanced forms of these magics; you are quite the individual,” said Zuriel calmly.
“However, this will not change anything. You won’t get any information from my mouth. So, go ahead, do your worse.”
“I don’t need you to speak,” Edward replied before motioning with his fingers. Then, a new set of chains appeared before piercing Zuriel’s head and pulling out a transparent version of himself: his soul.
Edward took out a bunch of more new talismans and activated them. As the talismans floated in the air, a grey mist floated out from Zuriel’s body into the talismans.
Not even two seconds after gathering these grey mists, black chains appeared on Zuriel’s soul to prevent the mists from leaving them. However, Edward activated more talismans to fight the black chains.
A little over ten seconds later, a strange vibration came from the chains and annihilated Zuriel’s soul, and Edward could not do anything to prevent it.
With a composed look, he muttered: “I was correct. There are three different types of Universe Will: the one who sealed me, the one I notice in Elysium, and the one in the Academy.”
After fighting and analyzing the Universe’s Will power from Zuriel’s soul, many things became more apparent to him.
Edward waved his hand to collect the gray mists he gathered: ‘Hopefully, I can gather enough memories to learn about Elysium.’
