My body started to freeze.

My skin became pale.

The movement of the water absolutely stopped.

My entire skin had turned blue, and my heart rate had slowed down.

No matter how much I tried, I was not able to move my body.

“Damn it, Soul Puppetry.”

[Initiating Soul Puppetry]

A part of my soul came out of my body.

The soul had the form of my original body without any armor or clothing.

It was just bones

From the fingers of the soul, strings came out and attached themself to my body.

Now, I could move my body, but because of the low-temperature my entire body had hardened, and most parts had froze

Using some strings, I increased my heart rate.

My right hand entirely disintegrated into pieces.

The trials were made to test people not to kill them. So, the moment I lost consciousness, I would be teleported outside

But that would mean I would lose.

Fortunately, I had already created a golem

Little by little, I was regaining control.

“Morpheus”

I created a hemisphere around me using Morpheus. The water inside the sphere was flowing outside using little holes, and the air was being created inside the sphere with the use of magic.

Within the narrow space, rising temperature required little effort.

My pale skin started to turn bright

Blood slowly started to flow through the frozen parts.

My right hand had disintegrated, the blood came pouring through the wound.

I touched the water golem’s surface and took some of its mana to regrow my hand.

The bone of my right hand grew.

Slowly some flesh surrounded the bone

Nerves were being created.

Muscles covered the arm, and finally, the skin was formed.

“Phew, That was really close”, In relief, I sat down and took a breather.

To further analyze the situation, I concentrated mana on my eyes, looked through the sphere.

Standing on top of her pillar I saw Fiona

Closed eyes, Shining cane, Concentrated magic around her body, enchanting words with her mouth. I realized she was preparing for a spell.

I definitely did not plan on letting her finish.

Creating a water golem underwater gave me various advantages.

“Combined Attack: Wave of Water Serpents”

Creating an element out of nothing like fire or water consumed magic. Then controlling them also required magic.

The thing different about golems was they did not require magic to control their own element; however, it did require magic to create its own essence.

Fortunately for me, this room was filled with water, and I had created a water golem.

The water outside was icy and had little to no moment, but now the water near my golem began to circulate and form shapes.

8 Snake like shapes were spiralling around the cylindrical pillar

Incredible vibrations were created

Roar! Roar!Roar! Roar! Roar!

The water serpents broke their spiral formation and charged straight towards Fiona.

Hearing them roar and feeling the disturbance in the water, her concentration was disturbed. She opened her eyes and saw beings created from water rushing towards her.

Her face still had a clear and indifferent expression

Stretching her hand, she cast a spell, “Ice magic: 3 Primal Gates.”

Three different gates of different sizes were created in front of her

The one in the front was the smallest and the thinnest while the Gate closet to her was the biggest and the thinkest over 50 m length

Bash! Bash!

Two serpents crashed in the smallest Gate and collapsed, while the Gate was seriously damaged

The third serpent broke through the 1st Gate while being unable to crack the second

Bash!

Bash!

Bash!

Bash!

Bash!

The remaining 5 serpents crashed into the 2nd wall but were unable to break it.

The second Gate was slightly cracked

She still had a blank stare seeing though the ice walls and directly looking at Azrael

ON the other hand, I had a slight grin on my face, I whispered, “Nice, she managed to block it, then how about this”

“Endless Wave of Ragining Serpents”

The entire room began to shake,

Larger then the entire pillar a serpent was created.

Roar!!!!

It let out a mighty roar.

The shockwave from the roar broke her 2nd Gate.

Her eyes widened, muscles tightened

Instantly it charged towards Fiona

Only one Gate remained.

Bash!

Ice scattered like pieces

The Gate was utterly destroyed

Without stopping, the serpent charged towards her.

She laughed and exclaimed, “Petty tricks, Ice magic: 3 Primal Gates.”

The Gates were recreated. This time very near her

The serpent was already weakened after the previous clash, so, it collapsed after breaking the Gate as mentioned earlier.

I gave it some thought, “I see, mana doesn't seem to be a problem for her. But I wonder how fast can she keep recreating it after all as long as there is water, my serpents are endless.”

Fiona looked towards Azrael,

A chill went down her spine

“Damn!!”, she gritted her teeth

She was a fire witch. The number of spells she could use underwater was limited. For elemental sorcerers to use high-level magic of opposition element, it would consume more magic than normal high-level spell

With the magic the tower was supplying her, the amount of mana was not a problem for her.

But in front of her, she could see more than 100 serpent heads.

Her body started to sweat.

She could keep recreating the Gates or use any other spells, but if those all serpents had charged all at once, then there was a possibility that some might reach her.

She questioned herself,” Should I just remove all the water from the room? But I still don’t know why did this room choose to create such circumferences? It doesn't seem to affect him that much.”

Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The heads of the serpents roared. The shockwave created though the entire room was immense.

The vibrations caused the water to rapidly heat up.

I commanded them to charge forward
