"That's none of your matter, Mr. Godfrey! It's my matter so you have no rights to interfere in my matter. What she told is absolutely correct! And please could you just close your mouth and watch!" Said Harley when he heard the word 'Disappointed'.
But,the way of speaking made both the dean and the girl shocked because one random boy was ordering one higher-up and the other party (Godfrey) politely shut his mouth by bringing his right index finger on his lips.
"What happened, mam?" said Harley as he saw their faces. "Can you please start the test?"
"Oh yes, the test! I forgot about it.Whatsoever, please take your stances (Harley took his dual swords while Cassie brought her magic staff). And now, One Two Three and start!!!"
As soon as she stopped, Harley vanished into thin air and appeared right before Cassie as he swung his sword upwards.
It was flash step.
Cassie gave a grin as she used her staff to block his attack and rather striked her staff on his left shoulder. But the impact was so strong that the ground beneath Harley shattered a bit while his body took most of the shock.
The pain seemed to be tremendous, but for Harley, it was something only his old friends gave him day&night when they were together.
"Using your staff to attack and exert such a pressure (His eyes narrowed as he smiled a bit)!! I'm impressed!" said Harley as he retreated about give metres from her.
"Perfect! Absolutely perfect!" said Cassie. Suddenly, the wind around the two tensed, the speed of wind increased by threefold. The pressure increased as well. Then Harley noticed something- the colour of the air changed to slightly orange which could be observed by intense focus only. Harley understood what it was.
Scorching Wind!!!
It was the same ability that William used against Jack if one could remember. By the way, Harley knew very well that one can nullify the ability by exerting a tremendous amount of mana and aura at the same time.
Aura should cover the body of the person while mana would be busy nullifying the wind's effect. The aura power is needed so that it can push the body to the extreme for generating mana from each and every cells and tissues of the body. If a cell produced 60 percent of its maximum output, would produce 100 percent of its maximum capability, sometimes even the cells would limit break, even producing 150 to 300 percent.
But Harley knew very well that if he nullified the effect from the start, then the victory will be of Cassie while he would not get good ratings from the dean and also, Godfrey.
So he just stopped his breathing. If he didn't breathe, then atleast he would get minor injuries on his skin while saving the internal organs from fatal and deadly injuries. Seeing him stopping breathing, Cassie laughed out loud,"You are mad! Hehahaha, holding breath will make you weaker, just accept your fate that you will DIE!!!"
Harley soon understood that if he holded his breath, then he would already be half-dead or more seriously injured. But he knew, that holding breath might make him weaker and weaker, but protecting his internal organs is more important.
He then thought of doing long ranged attacks which would atleast, keep him safe. But soon, he realised that long ranged attacks are the strength of all mages. But he had no other alternatives. Suddenly, Victoria said,"If you can't fight, Mr. Harley Sawyer, then you can leave. But do not waste time of us."
Harley understood they are mocking him. So, filled with anger, he rushed towards Cassie and vanished into thin air again. He then appeared behind Cassie, leaving her off guard.
Rumbling Tiger's Jaw!!!
