Oliver Walpurgis (2)

As the fog calmed Klaus was still standing there unharmed to the point there were no marks of burns even in his clothes let alone his body

Oliver was once again shocked, Klaus scratched his head and said

"You can try just one more time, after that it's my turn..."

Oliver gritted his teeth and stuck his sword right besides him at the ground and started preparing for the strongest magic he could do at current state

He kept chanting for minutes while Klaus just watched over him with a bored face, the audience of knights was also starting to feel bored

It continued just like that for the next few minutes until Oliver finally decided to shout out again

"You should not have underestimated me too much!!! Don't blame me if you break a leg today!

This is the strongest magic I have! The Tier 8 Magic _ Meteor Strike!!!"

Along with his words the sky suddenly became bright red and next moment a gigantic meteor was seen making its way directly towards Klaus

But this magic was sure to do more damage than just that, but Klaus was still standing there with unfazed posture

"Yeah that's it... I'm bored now..."

As Klaus muttered next moment he moved his hands upwards and this time there were no magic circles or visible flow of mana around his body

But just next moment dozens of chains made from what seemed to be clouds caught the falling meteor and in front of all eyes

The Meteor turned into dust, disappearing in air without any chance to even touch Klaus

And this happened everyone felt amazed and at awe because of Klaus's monstrous skills

But Oliver directly fell to ground with no mana left in his body with a horrified face, Klaus went to him and asked

"So?~"

Oliver looked upwards and with tight grip over his fist he said

"I.. I admit my loss..."

Klaus nodded and next offered his hand to Oliver as a support, Oliver sighed and grabbed Klaus's hands and stood back

"You seem to be kinder than the rumours..."

Oliver muttered with a smile over his face, Klaus also just nodded with a grin but suddenly Klaus asked

"But why did you want the duel?"

[Hah! That's an easy question! He came here with intentions of winning the duel against a hero to raise his reputation in Magician Tower and gain higher standing there!

To proved himself worthy to his family before inheriting the title of Marquis and winning their hearts to keep their loyalty by his side!]

Apollo said a lot of reasons after that but Klaus's focus was still over Oliver's reply

"I just wanted to test my sister's future partner with my own eyes and hands, I have heard a lot of rumours about you but I can't let the future of my sister just depend on mere rumours that keep changing every day

I just wanted to know if you are a capable man or not, but you exceeded my expectations ..."

Klaus was a little surprised by his confidence over his face and just nodded but still a question came from Oliver

Oliver seemed a little embarrassed over himself and said while scratching his back with red ears

"It feels weird right, I worry too much about my sister even when she has grown up, you won't do this if someone proposed to your sister right?"

As he said that the cheerful atmosphere of the place suddenly changed and all knights and Klaus looked back at him coldly and Klaus said

"Yes, how can I request a duel to test the abilities of someone who just likes my big sister...

I will just kill that sucker and let the worms eat his entire body while he is still alive

Then put a ball filled with centipedes inside his mouth to let the centipedes kill him from inside while he sees all this binded with chains unable to do anything

I will use every percentage of my strength to torture that bastard to death I will even visit hell if it means I can torture him more"

"Just as the lord said!"

"The flower of Whitebloods will be protected to death!"

"Yeah! The suckers will be removed just like in the past!"

"Only death awaits who dare to even gaze at Lady Sarah!!!"

Oliver suddenly noticed the flow of world change at visible speed in front of his eyes and suddenly there was a change of heart in him

"Someone who finally understands me!"

Both Klaus and Oliver grabbed each other's hands tightly and grinned seeing each other's eyes

But next Klaus noticed the cold shining eyes of Ashia standing at the windows of Klaus's office behind Oliver

"Oooh! Then let's have a few more duels!!!"

Klaus immediately turned his gaze away and announced it with a bright face, the knights were already fired up from before

And after Klaus announced that all knights jumped into the duel area and rushed at Klaus with excited faces

"I will get at least one strike this time!!!"

"I'm the first!!!"

"I will be the last man standing today!"

"Let the new legend be known to the world!!!"

Klaus just grinned and watched all knights rushing towards him with a bright face but even after those who roared at the end of day the only man left standing at the ground was Klaus

With dozens of unconscious and tired bodies of all knights piled up in the area like dead corpses

And Oliver tossed unconsciously somewhere at the corner of the place

"Yo! Finally regained consciousness again huh?"

As Oliver regained his consciousness he noticed Klaus sitting next to him with dead fish eyes

"Ah? Ahem! Yes!"

Oliver immediately straightened his back while sitting on his back and looked at Klaus with stiff face and posture

He looked around the room and noticed Molly standing near the door with her giant sword and Zoya standing besides Klaus with no visible emotions on face

And on another side was Ashia looking coldly over the place

'Am I getting punished for distrubing him now, well guess disturbing Duke during his work is really an offence worth a punishment...'

Oliver thought about these things after coming to understanding with his line of thoughts and just sighing, but next moment

"So what are you going to do now?"

Klaus asked looking at him with a little serious face, Oliver looked back at Klaus with an unexpected look

And replied after processing his thoughts for a few seconds

"I was thinking of returning to Magician Tower, I thought I was good enough after all these years but the world is still huge

I couldn't even understand the principles behind your magic, you used all your magic with chantless and traceless bases

I still don't have that level of mastery over my elements or even understanding the laws of magic to do anything even close to that..."

Klaus heard him and noticed him making a little disappointed and tired face

'Well fighting opponents can bring motivation as well as despair too, seems like he got little of both...'

Klaus tapped his shoulders and asked "What is your status in the Magician Tower?"

"Oh, although I don't like bragging too much about myself, I'm still the best student among the mages who are studying there..."

Klaus heard him and a grin appeared over his face with a sharp train of thoughts

'So if he is the best student then he is only second to teachers, magic tower candidates and magic tower master himself...

Well guess he can be a big help there too...'

Klaus took out two grimories from his storage and passed it on to Oliver and said

"This is the base of chantless and Instant Casting Magic, you will still need years to become completely proficient but better than nothing..."

After Klaus finished his words Oliver looked at him with a surprised and shocked face

"A-are you for real!?! Just like that!?!"

Oliver still couldn't believe just what he had acquired right now, Klaus just gave him a nod and before leaving left him with one instruction

"You can follow Merlin at Magician Tower from now on, she will give you tips from time to time

Just tell her my name and it will be enough, I think she is in a good place within Magician Tower so it will be good for you too..."

Saying that Klaus and others left the room leaving Oliver alone in the room with stars shining inside his eyes

'Merlin... The number one candidate of Magician Tower and the youngest Tier 9 Magician in the history of Empire...

She is also one to use chantless magic and Instant casting magic directly! I didn't know she was also connected to Klaus here!!!

It's a jackpot! Ahhh~ my little sweet sister is really my golden ticket to heaven!!! I'm so lucky~'

Oliver was busy in his fantasies while dancing with two books in his hands with an extremely satisfied look over his face

While outside Klaus was walking towards his office with a dead look over his face and suddenly he looked back at Ashia and said with expectant eyes

"I think we can have a little more talk with Oli-"

"You should let him rest, he must be tired!"

But his hopes were completely crushed by Ashia coldly who grabbed Klaus's hands dragging him inside the office of hell filled with endless documents he needed to see
