Inhuman Warlock
210 Chapter 210: Against Morbius
"Alright. Alex. First statement. Teacher Morbius also has a crush on Mirali," Alexi told Lucifer, playing by his rules.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
Morbius started coughing extensively as he heard Alexi's words. His face couldn't be seen through his mask, but it was obvious that his expressions weren't good.
Mirali looked at Morbius, frowning.
As Lucifer's back was towards the teachers this time, he couldn't see what their expressions were, but he did hear coughing.
"Next statement, Teacher Yovann also has a crush on Mirali," Alexi said, keeping his poker face. His expressions didn't give anything away as he was a master in lying.
Thud!
As soon as Alexi finished his sentence, a heavy sound came from behind.
Yovann had fallen off his chair, in disbelief that Alexi was saying it. Mirali also glared at him as her frown deepened. Both of them were acting so suspicious.
She couldn't guess which statement was true, but she was really shocked at how many revelations came today. Why was it that everyone had a crush on her? She wondered what was so good about her.
"Come on, Alex. I'm playing by your own rules. Choose the correct answer, and you'll win," Alexi told Lucifer as a smirk crept up his lips.
Lucifer also smiled in response as he stretched his arms out. "You couldn't have given me anything easier."
"I don't think I need to think about that even for a second. I was just having fun. The answer is Teacher Yovann. The same day I saw him talking about your crush, I also felt like he had a crush too. So it's him," he said as he glanced back at Yovann.
"Aren't I right, teacher?" Lucifer asked, smirking.
"You little devil, you're pretty good. That's right. It was Yovann," Alexi answered as he burst into laughter.
"You evil Alexi, you did it intentionally! You gave him the choices, knowing he'll guess" Yovann stood up as he yelled at Alexi. "You wanted him to guess the right one!"
"Haha, my test my rules. And you can count it as revenge, my dear friend. My embarrassment because of you begets your embarrassment because of me. We're equal now. Still, I'll get you a beer tonight," Alexi said as he continued laughing.
He walked back to Yovann.
"Two beers, and you've got a deal," Yovann suggested, frowning.
"Fine! Two, it is," Alexi said as he sat down on his seat. He glanced at Lucifer before continuing, "Alex, you get full marks. No need to ask. You can go back."
Lucifer walked back to Cassius, amused at the banter of the teachers. That's what he loved about them. There was playfulness in them.
"Alright. Last test of yours will be Morbius," Alexi said, patting the shoulder of Morbius, who stood up.
Morbius walked to the center of the arena as he started explaining.
"The last test is simple. I taught you how to defend yourself. I'll test you on that today. I'll attack, and as long as you can defend yourself and dodge my attacks, you'll get points."
"If you're hit, you'll get fewer points. And if you fall to the ground, you'll get no points at all. So this is the test where you can truly fail. So be alert and show me what you got."
"There's no need to come one by one. This time, it'll be a team effort. I'll test two at the same time. Cassius and Alex, you're first this time. And yes, you can use your gifts too," Morbius told the two youngsters.
Lucifer and Cassius both noticed that there was now a white light on their bracelet, meaning they could use their powers without consequences.
The two of them stepped forward while Lucifer cracked his knuckles.
"Alex, let's see whose approach is better this time. Finally, something we can test on. Your defensive offense or my offensive defense," Cassius told Lucifer, who nodded.
"Alright, enough talking. Your five minutes start now," Morbius said as he used his footwork to appear before Lucifer right away as he punched Lucifer's chest while keeping his strength in control.
He used just enough strength to make sure Lucifer was going to be tossed far back since he was a close combat warrior.
As for Cassius; using this same skill on him was useless. Since it would only help Cassius get the distance to use his Divine Energy through his sword.
Cassius and Lucifer were a combination of close-combat warrior and long-distance ranger.
Even though the attack was fast, Lucifer noticed it coming at him. His reflexes were just as fast as he quickly spread his legs, bringing his body down suddenly.
The punch of Morbius passed from above Lucifer's head, but that wasn't all.
Lucifer used the opportunity and the close proximity as he also punched back.
His punch did manage to connect, unlike the punch of Morbius.
Morbius intended to toss Lucifer back, but it was the reverse as he flew back like a doll before he landed on the ground.
It also happened to give Cassius enough time to prepare.
He raised his heavy sword in the sky as he started using his Divine Energy. A mysterious energy seemed to have filled his sword, making it shine bright.
Without waiting any longer, Cassius made a slash with his sword, sending a bright arc of light that advanced towards Morbius, who had just stood up.
Morbius also noticed the attack of Cassius and jumped to the side, dodging it.
...
"Well, this wasn't how I expected this test to go. It looks less like Morbius testing their defense and more like them testing Morbius's defense," Yovann said as he smiled wryly.
"That's true. It's only the third year, but the students have grown so much. Especially Alex and Cassius. I believe they are the best we have received in any batch. I'm pretty proud that I teach them," Franci agreed.
"Yeah. They're good. I already expected that of Cassius, but that Alex came like a thunderstorm when the sky was clear. I hadn't even heard about him before," Alexi said as he nodded.
"He wasn't famous, but he existed. I wonder how many more unknown gems like him exist in this country that we don't know about," he continued.
...
As Cassius continued attacking Morbius, Morbius wasn't getting a chance to close in on him. At the same time, Lucifer started running towards Morbius.
He wanted to be defensive, but that was only when his powers were not allowed to be used. Now that he had strength, he wanted to use it, all while defending himself. He believed he could do that in close proximity, too.
Lucifer soon reached Morbius.
