The First Battle (4)

"Ugh." Yuri falls to the ground, and his sword falls from his hand, but he quickly gets up.

Damn it!

While I'm still getting up, Yuri applies a headlock on me!

He falls to the ground again, but this time it's on purpose!

"Argh!" He's squeezing really hard, if he continues like this, I'm going to...

I slowly look to the side, completely restricted from my movements, and see the man named Kaleb going to punch my brother with his free hand!

"William..." I struggle to try to free myself from Yuri's arms, but the difference in strength is immeasurable!

Shit!

William is completely still. His eyes are and terror.

The man throws a cross punch at William's face, who immediately loses consciousness!

"William!" My eyes are filled with despair and anger.

But even so, I can't let go.

"You're pretty tough for a child." Yuri says.

"What should we do with them, boss?" The subordinate asks.

"I don't know; I was thinking of killing them, but I think they'll make good money if I sell them as slaves." Yuri says with evil happiness.

I'm almost out of breath...

I need to breathe, no matter what...

I'm not... able to think straight...

I go...

"AAAH!!" A shockwave runs through my body and is released!

Instantly, Yuri releases me from his grip!

"Arf...Arf..." I can finally breathe freely.

I stand up, move away from Yuri. I'm a little dizzy, but I try to distance myself anyway.

On my side, slightly away from me, is William. He's lying on the floor with his eyes closed, I don't think it was anything serious. The man who knocked him down is in front of his body.

"So you still had an ace up your sleeve?" Yuri asks me. "That was rather impressive." He adds.

Meanwhile, behind me, I make a spinning earth spike, when he comes to attack, I will jump to the side and hit him!

"But now it's two against one." Kaleb says as he slowly approaches me. "What's that look? Do you think you might have a chance?" Without realizing it, my eyes were completely focused on my enemies.

He then advances towards me, wielding his sword with both hands up.

As he approaches, I throw myself to the right side and the spike shoots towards the man, hitting him in the stomach and driving the spike deep.

Kaleb takes a few more steps, but falls to his knees next to the grass.

I did it... I did it!

It is possible to win!

I just need to wait for the right moment...

"That was a bit unexpected, again..." Yuri says. "Well, I didn't expect much from that guy, but losing like that is humiliating. I think I can take care of you." He speaks with a certain confidence.

He quickly takes the sword and advances towards me!

He raises his sword to deliver a diagonal strike. Before he attacks, I make a stone wall my size.

Yuri attacks diagonally with the sword and breaks it with ease, but before he breaks it, I dodge backwards!

I will lure him to the grass; There I have more advantage with Forest Magic!

The man continues to advance with fierce sword attacks and I create another stone wall!

At the same time, as he breaks the wall, I go backwards, reaching the grass!

He runs towards me preparing a sword attack, I raise my wand and quickly make a small stone spike and fire as I move backwards!

Yuri dodges easily, but I keep attacking, making small stone spikes as I dodge!

He's already completely on the grass, this was the chance I was waiting for!

Advancing at top speed, Yuri comes towards me!

I quickly use my free hand to make roots trap both of his feet while he is running.

In this attack I will need to make the most resistant roots I have ever made!

The roots come out of the ground like a whip and intertwine around Yuri's feet. Suddenly he becomes immobilized and falls forward!

"Shit!" He whispers.

And now!!

I stop where I am and start to concentrate by staring at him.

Electrical waves begin to pass throughout my body, the ends of my hair turn blue, I feel my mana being sucked away quickly.

This will be my last attack!

I'm going to use all the mana I have!!
