Chapter 282 Strongest Sage, Sees Through Enemy's Weakness

"Here I come!"

Little Anmorr produced a red sphere in his palm .

It's an attack magic popular in my past life, 『Explosion Sphere』 .

It's not particularly that powerful, but since it produces an explosion at impact point once shot, this magic is easy to use as you don't need to aim accurately .

However, the [Explosion Sphere] used by little Anmorr wasn't normal .

After getting manifested, the [Explosion Sphere] turned blue half a second later .

Magic discoloration due to excess amount of mana .

This is a phenomenon exclusive to magic combatants possessing mighty mana .

Once it got to this state, [Discolored Explosion Sphere] exhibits ten times more power than a normal one at the very least .

That [Discolored Explosion Sphere] was shot under me .

"Whoops . "

By running forward, I got out of [Discolored Explosion Sphere]'s range .

A moment later–the sphere caused a huge explosion .

I got slightly blown away by the blast but I landed just fine without suffering any damage .

Rather, I'm thankful for assisting me getting some distance away .

"Kya!"

"I-it's as if that was Iris's magic . . . "

Ruli and Alma sounded surprised to see the explosion .

Indeed, its strength rivals that of Iris's magic . . .

"Wonderful! . . . Cast time 70% up, magic strength has been increased by 2400%! Our experiment is a success!"

Elder Anmorr is looking at a huge amount of data displayed on a data monitoring device while getting excited .

"Come now, fight! Give me more data!"

"Yes I get it! –Can I . . . Can I shoot successively!?"

Little Anmorr looked askance at elder Anmorr .

Hearing that, Elder Anmorr glanced at the data gathering device–and grinned .

"Load on the barrier, 15% . . . . Very well! You're permitted to shoot successively at 70% of full strength!"

Shooting magic successively puts load on the barrier .

Normally, there's no need to even worry about destroying [Wall of Space Rupture] . . . But in his life-force enchanted state, looks like there is a need to monitor the load .

Judging from their conversation, it seems the barrier won't endure 100% strength .

"70%, but there's a high chance my sparring partner won't survive . . . "

"I don't care! We've got a sparring partner exactly for this sake!"

"–I understand! 70% power rapid-fire, here it comes!"

Little Anmorr produced a large quantity of [Discolored Explosion Spheres] and scattered them around me .

I rush into the gaps between those spheres–and deploy a defensive spell .

Then a moment later, the [Discolored Explosion Spheres] detonated all at once .

"Ohho, you withstood even that huh . . . You're pretty good for a test sparring partner . "

Little Anmorr mumbled when he saw me unscathed .

–I can win this .

I'm convinced after seeing that rapid-fire discharge just now .

Were my opponent of Grevil's level, I wouldn't have come out of that much barrage of [Discolored Explosion Sphere] unharmed .

However, against little Anmorr, it's a simple matter .

He has the skill to control magic, but lack the finesse to employ it in battle .

He probably doesn't have enough combat experience .

It's a result of putting all their effort into some weird magic research while making light of combat skills .

He must be thinking that he could win by relying on enormous mana and physical strength alone .

" . . . . Could you start attacking now? I'd like to verify the barrier's defensive power . "

Elder Anmorr said that to me while I was observing my opponent's trend .

. . . It's a pain but I guess I'll play along with him until the preparations to crush this experiment are done .

"Understood!"

I shoot some random attack magic at little Anmorr .

He then proceeded to deploy a barrier magic and easily blocked my magic .

Well since I didn't put any tricks in the attack just now, it's only natural for it to get blocked .

"Defensive magic is wonderful as well . That attack magic just now was of the highest level in this current world . –However, the barrier Lunat deployed didn't lose even 0 . 2% of its density!"

"0 . 2% . . . ! What a wonderful result! I thank you for cooperating with our experiment!"

Yet, none of little Anmorr's attack ever reached me .

My attack couldn't hit little Anmorr either–however, the brothers found this situation unexpected .

"What's wrong Lunat! The you right now surpass your opponent's magic power by 5400% and physical strength by 700%! Why are you having a hard time!"

"My attack won't hit him! –But my strong point is the amount of mana I have! At this rate, I'll win this fight eventually!"

"Your opponent's mana amount has only decreased by 7 . 3% thus far . Don't think you can easily scrape it off! . . . Your mana is 50 times higher than him! How could it take so long! –I'll raise the barrier's strength temporarily! Claim your victory in the meantime!"
