I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 5 Magic Match: First Round 15
Previous story:
They finally arrived at the destination where it ended.a temple floating in the air.
They went in and found 4 crystal balls there. Then a projection appeared that told them that the four crystal balls would determine their order of entry in the magic domain.
The remaining four teams were already preparing to fight over the crystal ball. But suddenly a dark magician from the Death Magic Team appeared and took all the crystals and disappeared.
***
The dark wizard disappeared.
All the crystal balls disappeared.
We were all silent when it all happened. Moreover, that troublesome barrier appeared again...
I'm just confused. Didn't the match organizers see our fight? But why do they keep quiet with the dark witch who infiltrated? They should have intervened to catch the dark witch. But I don't know...
One of the Magic Soul Team moved quickly and used his magic to destroy the barrier. But the same thing happened again. The person was injured and his magic was wasted as it could not break the barrier.
"We can only destroy it with light magic" Robert said.
Three people from the Magic Soul Team advanced confidently, including Reina. Everyone easily guessed that they were the light magicians of the Magic Soul Team.
Seeing that there were countless light mages in the Magic Soul Team, everyone gasped in shock. Even the face of the Wandering Community Team froze in stupor.
Seeing everyone's shocked faces, the Magic Soul Team smiled. They are very proud of their team.
The three light magicians began to cast their magic. Their magic inflicted damage on the barrier, but as a result their bodies were blown away with a mouthful of blood coming out of their mouths.
"It's a good opportunity to have their points reduced" Robert suddenly whispered in my ear with a grinning smile.
God, this Robert is really sneaky. Did he intentionally say that the light magician of the opposing team advanced so that our team would not need to intervene at all.
Hmmm.actually this is pretty good.
When the three witches used their magic and were injured, Reina was also among them. The little girl's face was pale and her hands were trembling. It seemed that all of these events were too heavy for such a weak girl.
"Are you okay?" ask the Magic Soul Team Leader. He was very worried about Reina, because the girl had a worse condition than the others.
Reina shook her head with a weak expression so that it did not look convincing at all.
"rest. Leave it to us" the other light magicians responded.
"really. Your light magic is most powerful. We can't leave you in danger because our match is still long" another witch responded.
It was true, Reina's light magic was stronger and bigger than the other two magicians.
Finally Reina reluctantly agrees and retreats back with the other witches.
The two light mages attacked three times and finally TRANG!
The barrier is broken.
But the Magic Soul Team was battered. Even though I saw them drinking the healing potion so that their wounds quickly recovered. But their lost points would never recover.
Eventually the barrier was successfully destroyed by the sacrifice of one of the teams.
After that, we have to find the dark wizard.
It's impossible for this match to end because he stole all the crystals isn't it?
"mastaa, I don't know at all. How do I get this game to end?" I asked Robert.
Robert looked at Eva for a moment before clucking her head. "Stupid, this is so easy. In this game we only need to do two things. Defeat the opponent and defend until the end" Robert said with a confident smile.
The barrier issue is over. Now we just need to find that escaped dark witch. But the thing is, how do we look for it?
The other team is confused as well. After destroying this barrier they need to split up in search of the dark witch. But it's very difficult because we don't know how far the witch is teleporting. Even some people use mana tracking devices, but they do not detect anything.
"ah! Found it!" until finally one of the Magic Soul Team shouted.
He did not hold any magic tools in his hands. How could he track down the dark wizard?
He realized that he was now the center of attention. He looked at everyone while smiling proudly.
"Hmph! I don't need to use stupid magic tools like you guys. I can use my light element to track him" he said arrogantly while shaking his waist.
Hearing his words, the other light magicians began to try to use their light element. Including Charlotte and Eva.
I'll try it. But how?
Hmm.I don't know any tracking magic that uses light elements. More precisely I very rarely train my light element.
"He's not far from here" I heard Charlotte muttering. Looks like he's found traces of the dark witch.
"Pocus your mana around the neighborhood. You'll see traces of dark elements. Although faint, it can still be seen." Charlotte said later upon seeing Eva's confused face.
Without thinking, I tried it. And succeed! As I spread my mana around, I could see faint dark-colored traces.
"How did this happen?" I muttered unconsciously. To be honest, I've never studied a theory about this before.
"It looks like Dean Cristal hasn't taught you" Robert said.
I'm nodding. "We didn't study anything at the academy either". This was all because I was too focused on the level of magic power I was using and focused on memorizing spells.
"It's easy. When you use mana to create magic, there will be traces of mana left in the environment. The amount of traces left depends on which one is used. If you use mana from the surrounding environment, the imprint will be more clear. That's why the magic tool can trace the traces of where it is. But if you use mana in your body, the traces left depend on the magic you use. And generally, the traces left behind were more faint. That's why magic tools can't track him"
Robert took a breath and continued his explanation again "There is one effective way to detect this faint trace of mana. Because magic tools are useless. We can use the opposite magic element to trace its tracks. We can use the fire element to trace the water element, and vice versa. The air element to track the earth element, and vice versa uses the light element to track the dark element and vice versa"
I finally understood. It turned out that his terror was quite easy. We just have to use the opposite element to track down the witch!
"But of course there are weaknesses. We have to quickly trace the trail or it will disappear" Robert continued.
After hearing Robert's brief explanation, I nodded in understanding.
After that we decided to track down the faint traces left behind. The Soul Team of Shir had already left first, followed by the other Team. The opposing team that did not have a light magician would inevitably have to follow the Magic Soul team as a direction. And we're also leaving with Charlotte and me as directions.
