Chapter 133: Stopping Raigaki

"Hey, Kazuma?! Where are you going?!" Godou shouted as he also followed suit.

I don't have time to answer him back as I focused on the strong mana fluctuation. If I got distracted a little bit, I might lose sight of it.

"Kazuma, be sure to ready your defensive abilities anytime. We can't afford to get wrecked by the culprit from his arrows. It would be a piece of real bad news."

"Roger that."

The source of the mana is moving away so that means the culprit is currently walking and not in a fixed place, which will make things more complicated and hard. Despite that, I didn't stop and continue tracking the trail of the culprit.

"Wait a little bit man! Slow down!" Godou shouted as he continues to follow my trails.

The campus is quite large so I have to make a good eye of the traces of the dark mana. Apprehending the wrong person is not good. As I made a turn on an alley, the same arrow that hit the shikigami of Yaya appeared in a blink of an eye trying to hit me and the others. But since Blue has allowed me to keep calm and keep myself aware of my surroundings, I immediately released a fireball to the arrow, countering it. Since it is not a barrier, the ability of the arrow to hurt the blocker was not activated however it was a very risky move. I even sweat a lot after the attack because I am not sure if the fireball will hit and not just penetrate itself to the magic.

That arrow is not the only one and 5 more swift arrows rushing towards us after the first one was disintegrated appeared. Without flinching in surprise, I released another barrage of flames as I continue to throw it to the arrows. It needed timing but keeping myself calm in the situation allowed me to destroy it with ease without leaking even one arrow out of my sight.

"The enemy!" Raigaki's bloodlust immediately surged forth when he noticed the arrows.

"Chill out man! Don't just randomly release your bloodlust! You will hurt others if you do it like that!" Godou said, trying to calm Raigaki down.

"Shut up!" Raigaki flipped and rush head-on towards the arrows.

"F*CK! Raigaki is now out of control! Can you stop him Kazuma?!" Godou is now panicking.

I tried to stop him by using a few magic skills on the surroundings to slow him down but it is futile. He is now out of control and currently under the influence of berserk.

"Hey, looks like environmental interference doesn't work to stop him, should I use direct magic instead?"

"Whatever means possible Kazuma, as long as it doesn't kill him, then it is alright to do so! I give you permission to do that!"

Since Godou gave permission, without thinking twice, I immediately used one of the magic skills that I inherited from Byakko, the white tiger.

"Paralyze!"

ZAP!

It was a kind of very quick magic that magic circle did not materialize before the skill took effect. Raigaki who was just rushing forward stiffened and froze to his spot.

"Got him!" I shouted.

Even when paralyzed, Raigaki did not release Kuma from his embrace and grit his teeth.

"Don't stop me from beating up that bastard! [REFRESH]!"

Without warning, Raigaki stood up once again and he managed to break free from the Paralyze effect.

"Damn! I can't believe I forgot that Raigaki has the [Refresh] magic!Sh*t! We are back to square one!"

I have a slight idea what [Refresh] is but I have to make sure what it was.

"I know what you are thinking Kazuma. [Refresh] is a skill that allows the user to clear all kinds of status effects like poison and paralysis. It can be used for any targets, including the user itself. It can also be used even if some magician or demon managed to cast a silence to the user which is why this magic skill is a necessity for magicians to solve status effects immediately. If I were you, you should also learn it too."

"Then I will keep that in mind for later. First, we have to stop Raigaki first."

There are still arrows arriving but Raigaki just brushes them off like nothing. Of course, that is not really the case since Raigaki's arms are now bleeding. It is obviously not a good sign but he is still not stopping and just proceed to tank all the arrow beams without care about himself.

I can tell that we are nearing the area where the mana fluctuation is coming from and just as we are about to reach the area, the whole place started to crack.

"Mirror World?!" I was surprised by the sudden activation of Mirror World.

We usually activate the Mirror World instead of another person. It's either me or another magician in my side but this would be the first time another magician from another faction activate it. If that is activated, the enemy will surely be planning to attack without any holding back of their powers since the Mirror World can hide everything away from the eyes of the normal people, and every damage you made from the battle will not be reflected the real world, saving you from damage repair bills.

"Heh, they made everything easier!" Raigaki grinned maniacally and released Kuma from his embrace.

Kuma stood up after Raigaki released the little bear from his embrace. And before I knew it, Kuma started to get bigger and menacing just like before.

"Holy sh*t man, I don't know what to do anymore. Yaya is nowhere to restrain this guy and now we are going to deal with him! All I can do is beat him up but even now, I can't overpower Raigaki in terms of raw power! Can't you do something about it Kazuma? You have versatile powers of the different magic element, maybe you have something up in your sleeve!" Godou is panicking.

"Don't rely on me who is a newbie in magic! What do you expect of me, some overpowered individual?! I can't even control half of my magic spells yet and you expect me to stop Raigaki? Dude, I am not yet ready to die!"

We don't want to deal with Raigaki head-on. I already see Raigaki fight and it was dangerous. If I fight against him, he would immediately squash me to death that is why this is not going to easy. If even Godou who is a senior of me in magic is not courageous enough to fight against Raigaki, what about me then?

Raigaki and Kuma went out ahead as they burst into the air and head straight to the source of the mana fluctuations.

"Let's hurry, we can't afford for Raigaki to be rash this time," I said and activated the flames in my Blazing Shoes to enhance my speed.

"Agh... that is why I hate to do missions involving Raigaki!"

...

On the other hand, Yaya is still suffering from the pain in her eyes. She never expected to be caught off guard from the attack as it was kind of unexpected. Since her vision is impaired, she has to rely on her Mana Sense, an inferior version of Mana Scan to see. She can sense Otome and the school belle who is currently recuperating beside her bed.

She tried to stand up but her body suddenly felt painful that getting up from the bed is not going to be a painless movement.

"Don't be reckless, Yaya. The dark magic that inflicted your vision is a strong one and it causes people who got injured by it to suffer excruciating pain. It can disappear a few more days of rest though so there is no need to worry," Otome said.

"What about Raigaki and the others? Where are they?"

"From what I heard from their argument earlier, they are going to track down the enemy that damaged your eyes. It won't be good if the perpetrator managed to get away after hurting you right?"

"Then what about Kuma? The teddy bear I am holding earlier, where is it? Why can't I see it around even when I use my Mana Sense?"

"Kuma? Oh, that teddy bear. So that is Kuma. Currently, that teddy bear of yours is tagging along with Raigaki and the others to hunt the enemy. I even thought that you are the one controlling it."

"Huh? But I did not control him, let alone insert the mana cube that I use to let Kuma move!" Yaya said and pulls out the mana cube in her pocket.

"What?! Then what is making that teddy bear of yours move by its own if the core it is using is currently unsocketed from the body of the teddy bear?!"
