"If you put it that way then I have no choice but to help you Just this once! Also, I think it's time I stop holding back!" Lucien declared with a vicious smile on his face.
Upon saying those words a bright silver light shone brightly from his body and slowly took the shape of a man with an eagle head, talons for arms and feet, and four pairs of wings.
Caaaaawwwwwwwwwww!
Letting out a loud cry, Blink and the other invaders watched as Lucien's body began to change. For some reason, his skin seemed thicker than usual and his arms and feet were replaced with talons. The youth who had almost no presence suddenly made a 360-degree turn and showcased the beast side of him.
"Cute" Blink said as he began walking towards the spatial mage and Lucien.
"You wished to finish this battle quickly? Did you decide to stop holding back? You just messed up kid! That is the reason why none of you will leave this place alive" The death scythe in Blink's hands vanished and was replaced with two silver daggers.
"What you saw me use earlier was my master's magic weapon this is my first time using a death scythe so pardon me if my skills are below standards Don't worry, I can assure you... I am way better with my daggers!" Blink's words were filled with so much venom it made his enemies shudder in fear.
"This will be a massacre!"
Upon saying this Blink's life aura exploded taking the shape of a massive skull above his head! This time his enemies were scared senseless by his overwhelming presence. Lucien and Instructor Han watched the massive silver skull let out shrieks of the dead that instantly made them go numb. Thinking hard on Blink's identity, they were inclined to believe that his master must be a dark mage! That is the only explanation of how a spatial mage would wreak death!
"What the hell is this?!" Lucien roared with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. For the first time in his life, he was experiencing fear!
Shrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Blink didn't bother to answer, instead, he let the silver skull above him do the talking! Letting out a loud screech, Instructor Han panicked and lost concentration! Causing his spatial Zone to crumble!
"No!" Inspector Han cried out but it was already too late.
Swoosh!
Blink wasted no time in tossing one of his silver daggers at the airborne spatial mage! He wasn't going to let this opportunity pass by!
Woosh!
Suddenly Lucien appeared in front of the dagger, throwing a kick at it but instead of the dagger he met Blink!
'He switched places with the dagger?' Lucien screamed in his mind as his leg was caught by Blink.
Pa!
Pulling him towards himself, Blink shoved the dagger deep into Lucien's belly and proceeded to smash him into the ground with as much power as he could muster, creating a small crater where they stood.
"Y-o-u" Lucien muttered
"You have a big mouth kid! Just keep your mouth shut and die!" Blink hissed
Cough!
Cough!
Blink watched Lucien cough up two mouthfuls of blood while pressing the wound tight. He could feel a warm liquid flowing out of the back of his head, unknown to him, he was laying in a small pool of his blood.
"No... You didn't switch places with the dagger you ran to it who would have thought you would be faster than me even with my wind rider spell" Lucien muttered slowly as he analyzed the situation calmly.
"Hmph! That zone was the only thing keeping you alive it's nice to know you are capable of analyzing the situation even in this condition which shows how talented you are I have to say, you would have gone far since you remind me of my master but it's unfortunate you have to die here, you will be a problem in the future!" Blink said as he pulled out the dagger from his belly and raised it high but this time he was aiming for his throat.
"Spatial magic: Zone! Swap!"
Lucien had already accepted his fate by shutting his eyes tight while waiting for death. It was at that moment that Instructor Han's words reached his ears and suddenly he found himself in instructor Han's arm.
"What the hell" Blink muttered as he gazed at the white piece of kimono soaked in blood.
In just a short while he could guess that instructor Han tore of a piece of his cloth and used it to swap places with Lucien.
"Equal exchange! That's what it's called... This is something you will never grasp!" Instructor Han said with a vicious look on his face.
Gazing at him Blink could tell the man was enraged. He didn't expect to see a human protecting a beast-man so he was taken by surprise. He was about to speak but then he felt numerous powerful aura signatures heading towards them. He knew the reinforcement these people were speaking of was close.
"A prolonged fight is not what we need... We will tire out!" Blink said to his comrades before turning his attention to Instructor Han.
"Your magic is inferior!"
Upon saying this he clasped his hands together and forcefully opened a spatial gate within the spatial zone! This was a way of showcasing his overwhelming power!
Lucien watched Blink jump into the portal, alongside a gold-haired youth and the other ten go with him. Before he left, he left a word that would haunt Lucien for a long time
"Saved by a human shameful"
