My Muscle System in the Mage World

Chapter 385: How the Tables have Turned



Stella slowly appeared from Nina's side; her eyes looked at the terrible state of Aur with satisfaction coming across her face.

"Not bad, not bad; you have truly done your job well."

She spoke while nodding her head and patted her shoulder.

"Now you are truly on your way to the top." Stella spoke lightly, her eyes looking at the writhing Aur.

"You have a tenacious vitality, brat."

She spoke lightly with her brows knitted together.

Aur immediately coughed; not even his blood came out as it burnt away from the flame; his state was just too terrifying.

"Yes, I do have a tenacious vitality." He lightly said, "It's a pity that I couldn't reach Tier Four with my body. If I could, then in theory I could even be reborn from a single drop of blood." Aur thought in his heart.

The most special thing about the path of the body was that as one progressed even by a bit, the increase in his tenacity was still sizable, and when this accumulated, Aur's ability to survive just simply became gradually too powerful. Although it didn't give him the capability to fight higher Tiers, it gave him the confidence to survive even if a Tier Four wizard attacked.

"Enough nonsense."

Stella shook her head. "You are an interesting creature indeed."

"Enough talk; let's end this." Nina spoke with a cold expression, her hands raised to make the final move.

"By the way, the Tier Seven spell you promised me, where is it?"

She paused.

"Haha, Nina, you are wrong there. This woman is tricking you; since you won the trial, you have the chance to lift the sword, and if you do, then you will be the owner of this entire place, not just a mere Tier Seven spell."

Aur spoke while laughing off.

"Huh?" Nina was stunned in place; her pupils drifted off to the bald woman.

"This…"

Stella gritted her teeth in her mind, her eyes venomously looking at Aur before she looked at Nina again.

"He is telling a lie and trying to separate us while he himself is trying to escape." She spoke lightly to Nina with a gentle and warm voice, like a mother.

"You are right." Nina nodded her head, but her expression was slightly cold, as if calculating in her mind.

Aur looked at the cold Nina with a smile: "You know that after you kill me, there would be no one stopping you to capture her, and then you can be the owner of this world?"

His face was turning in the direction of Nina, but his crimson pupils were looking at Stella intently.

"What do you mean?"

"The guardian spirit of this trial couldn't hurt the challenger itself, and you still identify as a challenger, so she will hurt herself."

Aur coughed again; his eyes seemed to be slowly losing the sign of vitality.

"He is lying." Stella wanted to speak but was immediately interrupted by Aur again.

"Believe it or not, you can try that after I die. It doesn't matter; I am just leaving my last words to my friend." Aur seemed to be slowly closing his eyes: "No one will be able to stop you after I die."

Nina hurriedly moved her hands; the mana grew increasingly terrifying as she wanted to end Aur.

But at the last moment, as the blue flame demon was about to attack, Aur's body suddenly vanished from place.

"Huh!?"

Nina looked at Stella with a hint of suspicion in her eyes: "Guardian Spirit Stella, did you do that?"

"What did I do?" Stella asked innocently.

Nina's eyes narrowed while a hint of murderous thought rose in, but she closed her eyes and quickly seemed to return to calm with a hint of smile on her face.

"Damn it, Aur," she mumbled with bitterness. Now that Stella has hidden the body, everything that Aur has said is true. If he hadn't said those last words, then Stella might not really be wary of her, but now she naturally is, and Aur became her last straw.

Nina was not a stupid person as a person who had to face schemes in the academy, especially since she came from a remote area and even became the disciple of a Tier Five wizard. It would be stupid to assume she was a simple person.

A person without facing difficulties cannot mature!

Like high-carbon steel without hammering, it is nothing, but when it is hammered and hammered like the hardship we face in the world, it has the potential to become the sharpest sword in the world.

She knew that if she pushed this Guardian Spirit further, then she would absolutely heal Aur and even allow him to gain strength beyond her with the amount of knowledge and resources that Nina has seen just a fraction of; at least she could tell that much.

"Now she has a handle on me!" Nina thought in her heart, with her smile becoming even warmer.

The tables have turned!

"Haha, Nina, you have done a good job. As for your reward, there is no need to pick this sword up; I will grant you the Tier Seven spell and allow you to leave. How about it?"

Stella said with a meaningful smile while looking at the red-haired girl.

"Hmm," Nina paused, her eyes closed.

"Is it not okay?" Stella looked at her, her tone getting slightly colder and colder.

At this time, Nina was deeply thinking about her situation. If she went out of this place with a Tier Seven spell, then not even her so-class "Master" might be likely to protect her, or even if she does, then would those two kingdoms let her go?

You have to know that Tier Seven spells or higher were very limited in circulation with the monopoly from the Seven Kingdoms; there was basically no way to get it, and Nina didn't have any means to resist them.

Getting a Tier Seven spell might be a disaster rather than a boon!
