Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe - Chapter 160

Chapter 160: Arrogant
Seeing Kevin look at him with suspicion, the handsome youth from the Murphy Academy, the one with the mole under his right eye, looked back at Kevin and smiled coldly.

The next moment, gray smoke covered the youth’s face, and following that, Adam’s true appearance was revealed.

Rank 1 Spell: Disguise!

This was a spell from the School of Illusion that allowed the caster to make themself—including their weapons, clothing, and other belongings on their person—appear different than they really were.

In short, it fooled the eyes of the beholder. The extent of the illusion was up to the imagination of the caster.

When the people around Adam saw gray smoke cover his face and change his appearance, they were stunned. However, it was already too late. For Adam had already made his preparations in secret.

While still maintaining eye contact with Kevin, Adam raised his right hand and then weaved the final physical component for his spell.

Rank 1 Spell: Grease!

Rank 1 Spell: Shape Water!

At once, the ground around Adam in a radius of three meters was filled with a black-colored, sticky grease. Following that, when the youth cast Shape Water, he expanded the radius by three times.

And finally, he weaved hand signs one more time. His speed was so great that it appeared to be a blur. By now, the Magi had already realized what was going on. So they hurriedly rushed toward Adam.

But instead, they were rushing toward their deaths.

Adam’s lips curled up into a cold smirk as he held his hands out, his thumbs sticking together and his other fingers stretched out and pointing at the ground.

Then, from the tips of his eight stretched-out fingers, thin streams of flames shot out and came in contact with the grease on the ground, resulting in a sea of fire that set the surrounding Magi ablaze.

Rank 1 Spell: Flaming Fingers!

The moment Adam set everything on fire, he gathered strength in his legs and jumped backward. At the same time, he activated the Ring of Light Fall so he could stay afloat in mid-air for a while.

As he floated in the air witnessing the scene of the tens of Magi burning in flames, Adam’s eyes flashed with a ruthless glint. He sacrificed a few material components and then weaved another series of hand signs.

Following that, ten small magic circles appeared around him, out of which ten orbs of pure mana materialized and shot toward the Magi who were burning in flames.

Rank 1 Spell: Magic Missiles!

While these Magi were struggling to free themselves from the sea of fire created by Adam, the Magic Missiles pierced these Magi, instantly killing them.

Adam knew that it wouldn’t be that difficult for these people to escape from the flames. After all, the radius of the flames wasn’t too big to begin with.

That is why the youth had cast Magic Missile to deliver the final blow while the Magi were preoccupied with the flames.

And just like that, Adam had already killed a third of the Magi.

All within a minute!

However, when he looked past the burning ground, he saw that Kevin and Jeffrey were still alive. They had managed to survive his attack. However, Adam wasn’t disheartened in the least.

Because he was going to kill them now anyway.

Adam gently landed on the ground like a feather. Then, with a wave of his hand, the fire in front of him was snuffed out. It was his spell, to begin with, so he had full control over it.

When the fire dissipated, ten corpses came into view. Some had holes in their chest, while others had holes in their heads. But the common characteristic among these corpses was that they were burned to a crisp.

When Kevin and Jeffrey saw this outcome, they were overcome by terror. Not only had their enemy infiltrated their group, but he had also killed ten Magi in one go!

Thinking back to when Kevin was kicking Adam all over his body, thinking the latter was just another cowardly youth from the Murphy Academy, he was full of regret.

Had he known back then, he would have made sure to kill Adam once and for all.

Grayson had an extremely solemn expression on his face. He found it incredulous that a mere teenager was able to pull off such a feat. Now, he understood why his young master was placing such great importance on Adam.

The orange cloak of the Murphy Academy that Adam was wearing was suddenly covered in gray smoke. And the next moment, it transformed into black robes after the smoke disappeared.

Next, a black pointy hat materialized on the youth’s head. Adam adjusted his hat and then gazed at the twenty or so Magi still alive.

Seeing them all tremble at the sight of him, he smirked. “All of you, I’m giving you a chance. Leave or you’ll never see home again.”

At once, the Magi started having second thoughts about leaving. None of them wanted to fight this monster in front of them.

Seeing the expressions of the people on his side waver, Kevin roared at the top of his lungs, “Are you all stupid?! Do you think he’s going to let you all leave just like that? Don’t fall for his tricks!”

Upon listening to Kevin’s words, many Magi found their resolve again. From the way Adam was arrogantly looking down at them with an amused smile, they were now more or less certain that the youth planned to kill every one of them.

“Don’t falter!” Kevin began. “Just follow my instructions and we can deal with him. Don’t forget about the riches and treasures that you’ll receive after finishing this task for me.”

The Magi’s determination was further reinforced after listening to Kevin confidently speak about their rewards.

Seeing that the fellow Magi’s heads were back in the game, Kevin nodded. Then, he coldly glanced at Adam and spat through gritted teeth, “You peasant. I’ll wipe that smirk off of your face and feed you to the wolves!”

Adam raised his chin and arrogantly looked down on Kevin. His lips parted and he condescendingly said, “Kevin Gracie, know that when all this is over…

“I will look down upon your corpse and smile.”
