Chapter 964 End of Training
The shaven-headed man saw Vicente's movements, but didn't take it negatively.
'Interesting. This guy might finish the training mission with the young master.' He thought as he folded his arms in front of his chest, a slight smile of interest shaping his lips.
Before Vicente, three other disciples had tried and failed the mission. They had failed, while Theo had not finished his training.
For this shaven-headed man, regardless of whether Vicente seemed to master the situation, this was undeniably good for his young master.
Theo's eyes widened as he was taught by Vicente, saying nothing, but feeling outraged at having to learn from someone of a lower cultivation than his own.
'You bastard! I'll beat you!' He moved more of his mana, this time not focusing on the quantity of wolves, but on the individual quality of each one.
'Let's see if you can maintain this attitude at the end of the training!'
Vicente saw his opponent's interest in hurting him double, while the intensity of the red rays in those creatures improved along with all their structural quality.
'He's a really good talent.' Vicente smiled as he moved again, watching his enemy rapidly evolve in more ways than one after his demonstration.
Taking more care, Vicente targeted other vulnerabilities in Theo's not yet fully mastered spell.
He attacked the mana creatures showing that they weren't as fast as they should be, and then showed Theo that if he didn't combine them to attack the enemy with more quality and a better combo, then Theo was just wasting his mana on forming more than one of these wolves.
Meanwhile, Theo felt his mana drain away, little by little feeling the effects of keeping a spell as powerful as that active for minutes. Sweat trickled down his body, reaching his hairy back as he opened his mouth to breathe more deeply.
His previous desire to crush Vicente faded along with the drops of sweat, as he learned that the opponent facing him was no simple matter.
While he had already destroyed almost all the opponents generated by this spell, Vicente was still standing, apparently not in the least perturbed. He wasn't so relaxed that Theo felt totally overwhelmed by an enemy who hadn't even attacked him throughout the fight, but he wasn't in his best state, either.
As he had spent over 50% of his mana and moved to defend himself, attack and dodge the red wolves, Vicente now felt burning in his muscles and was also sweaty.
Prisiche watched her master face off against the last of those wolves, pleased to see him fight so well on his first mission of this kind.
Unlike the fights under the supervision of instructor Myles, this fight was unfavorable to Vicente. Even so, Prisiche's master was winning!
"Impressive." She said as her eyes sparkled, "The master is not only going to win, he's also close to completing his mission."
The monk next to her listened and couldn't help but agree. It wasn't often that people in Vicente's situation could achieve such a result, winning and making their opponents learn simultaneously. But while Theo looked like he might fall to the ground exhausted at any moment, his spell was getting closer and closer to being mastered.
In just one fight, Vicente had achieved what several others had failed to get into several training sessions with Theo!
Vicente himself hadn't expected it as he felt his adversary, stronger defensively, faster and more dangerous than all those he had faced so far, attack him.
'It seems his pride is as potent a fuel as his talent.' Vicente imagined as he dodged, seeing that he had to let this last wolf continue to develop.
'With the mana Theo Steel still has, he could last another 15 seconds before the spell breaks. Will that be enough?' Vicente thought, not wanting to destroy the last of the wolves, determined to withstand the 15 seconds of pressure.
As angry as Theo was, with his pride wounded, he was no fool not to realize his current situation. He knew what Vicente was trying to do and cooperated, focusing the rest of his strength on finishing this training session with the best possible result.
As he raised one of his hands, he controlled the last wolf subtly differently to what he had done so far, making it glow as if it were advancing a level.
At that moment, the creature raised its head high and opened its mouth, releasing a loud howl that made Vicente raise his hands in defense of his ears.
Then the sound of something breaking rang out, before the mana in the surrounding area entered Theo's body, similar to what had been happening to Vicente since he arrived in Anicane.
'Oh?' Vicente wasn't fazed by the sound attack, using part of his light-related powers to protect his body.
Meanwhile, the bald man moved forward, watching his young master complete the requirements of the spell and get an opportunity for promotion!
"Outer Disciple Theo is really lucky. As well as learning the spell, he also drew inspiration from the battle with my master." Prisiche moved too, appearing next to Vicente. "Master, he's about to advance to 7-Star because of you."
Vicente had already noticed this and was also impressed.
"Disciple Vicente Fuller, please wait for us outside the training room. We will settle the conclusion of your mission after the young master has finished his advance." Said the man with the shaved head.
Vicente made a gesture of greeting and didn't hesitate to walk out of the room with Prisiche.
"Congratulations on completing the training mission, master. You'll get 55,000 stone coins for it!" The blonde woman congratulated him in a good-natured tone.
He smiled at her, but after the challenge with Theo, he couldn't help but re-evaluate the training missions and when he would arrange the next one.
'Elder Collins was mistaken not to know more about me, but his advice wasn't wrong. I'll continue with my current responsibilities and leave to arrange more missions when I become a Royal Sorcerer.'
With that in mind, he sat down outside that area where Theo was advancing to wait.
