Princess Fischl

Chapter 30

Seeing the system message, I smiled happily and immediately used the new energy, creating a tiny ball of positive cursed energy on my hand.

- This is... amazing. - Ieiri looked at the ball of energy I created, fascinated.

- Emi, what do you think of the path of a doctor? - It was clear how excited the woman in front of me was, even the signs of fatigue seemed to disappear from her face, replaced by enthusiasm.

- Shoko, Emi is my student. - Satoru hastened to say.

- Shut up, I'm not talking to you. - the girl immediately snapped, and then looked at me with a friendly smile.

- Well, I respect healers and I think it's useful to be able to save loved ones in an emergency. - I answered, slightly taken aback by such pressure.

- Then how about learning from me? You know, there is not a single person in the world who is better than me in the art of healing. - Ieiri said proudly, sticking out her chest.

- I would be glad, but first I need to get stronger. - I answered guiltily. After all, her tired look clearly shows how much workload she has, due to the fact that she is, in fact, the only one who can heal others with the reverse technique. Okkotsu Yuta does not count, as far as I understand, he generally hides such a possibility, and is more useful on the front lines as one of the few magicians of a special level.

- You see, she will stay with me and since everything went this way, I will now help you return to college. - Satoru immediately intervened.

- Wait, she is such a talent!

- Ieiri-san, I do not mind studying with you, but now it is really important for me to become stronger, and in the future I promise that I will help you when I am free.

- Yuta, he also said so, and where is he now?

- Shoko, don't push for pity, let me drop you off near the spa salon, and you'll have a good rest? Okay?

- Okay, but you'll pay for everything. - the girl answered with a snort.

- Of course, here's my card, don't deny yourself anything. - Having said this, Satoru handed the girl a card, apparently indicating VIP status, and hastily began to prepare the teleportation, and a few moments later there was a bang, and where the girl had just been, there was a small crater.

- Phew, I don't remember, the last time she was so enthusiastic was when she tried to teach me the reverse technique. - he said, wiping away imaginary sweat.

- Hm, last time I somehow didn't have time to pay attention to this, but does this teleportation also work on positive damn energy?

- Yes, absolutely right, and now we can probably achieve much greater results in training. Still, when a mage uses the reverse technique on himself, it is many times more effective.

- I don't like where you're going with this, teacher.

- And you're absolutely right, because we're approaching a technique that is quite simple. But nevertheless, it is a natural weapon against the neutral technique of infinity. Infinity Divergence is, in fact, a reverse version of infinity achieved through the reverse technique. The essence of this technique is to deflect the "infinity" of distance, and thereby teleport over truly enormous distances or can be used to strike, removing the infinity between the fist and the target, simulating an attack of infinite speed. Of course, there are limitations here too, but the force of the blows increases greatly. And as I think you've already guessed, this technique can bypass neutral infinity - saying this, he simply made a seemingly light kick on the ground, but a crater immediately formed from it.

- Then the damned technique red. - "power to repel" is essentially the reverse version of blue, this technique is aimed at creating a huge release of force that repels everything in its path. - a red ball the size of a fingernail formed on the magician's index finger, and then a trench at least a hundred meters long suddenly formed in front of the magician.

- Honestly, with your energy reserves, it will usually be ineffective to try to use red, at the moment it will be more profitable for you to use the lightning that you used in Sendai, but it does not matter, the main thing is that you remember for the future.

- And so, finally, the most important thing. Emptiness technique: Purple. - for this technique, you need to collide the cursed rotation techniques blue and reverse rotation red, two infinities, thereby creating an imaginary mass that erases everything at the atomic level. - having said this, he put his hand forward with his palm up and as if he was going to flick it. A cluster of purple light could be seen where the thumb touched the index and middle fingers, and then a huge purple ball flew out in front of him at great speed, creating a real ravine that was clearly more than a kilometer long.

"I wonder if Celestia will try to drop one of her favorite spikes on Mondstadt if I ever use this technique in Taivat?" I said out loud, mesmerized by such power.

"I don't know about Celestia, but now that the theoretical part is over, it's time for the practical part.

- Um, how will it go? - I asked uncertainly.

- Shamans develop the fastest in battles on the edge, and geniuses like us develop even faster. Therefore... - suddenly, Satoru Gojo released a simply suffocating aura of cursed energy. My mind simply froze in horror from this, as if I actually saw how many times my head was torn off or torn apart, and a moment later a powerful punch hit me right in the stomach.

- Ugh... - the pain had a truly sobering effect on me, and vomiting blood with something resembling pieces of organs, I could only be glad that at the last moment I managed to instinctively strengthen my body with cursed energy, and now quickly recovering with the help of recently received energy, I stood up on my feet resolutely looking at the teacher waiting for me with a smile.

- You're healed, great! There will be no more breaks. - and again a suffocating aura of horror fell upon me, but this time I was able to resist and using infinity, simultaneously strengthening myself with cursed energy, I rushed towards him.

He did not dodge my blow, and when my fist simply froze a couple of centimeters from his chest, I realized my mistake, receiving a knee in the stomach. This time the blow was not so painful for me, because my infinity neutralized his reverse infinity, but this did not change the fact that I was hit quite hard, sending me tumbling on the ground.

- You should not just hit, use technique! - Satoru suddenly appeared next to me, delivering a kick from top to bottom, but I, turning into a purple flash for a moment, shifted several meters to the side. My brain worked at seemingly impossible speeds, in an instant I came to the conclusion that strengthening with the cursed technique was not effective now and relied on the speed of the electro element. Along the way, I did not defend myself with infinity, but prepared its reverse version to bypass the enemy's defense.

- This is already better, but you have to combine! - the guy dodged my clumsy kick and the next moment I was blown to the side. The hand that I covered myself from the kick at the last moment was unnaturally bent, and an open fracture was clearly visible. Lying on the ground, I tried with all my might to cope with the pain with tears in my eyes, healing the injuries I received.

Despite his previous words, Satoru still did not attack, but patiently waited for me to heal and get back on my feet, looking me straight in the eyes and nodding with satisfaction, he again headed towards me at great speed.

I understood that at the moment I almost did not understand anything about hand-to-hand combat, and I urgently needed something that would at least reduce the damage received. Once again I had to turn to the power of Taivat, creating what I had been thinking about for a long time, but, unfortunately, never found the time to implement. A light splash of geo and dozens of small golden feathers went straight to the enemy, and a slightly golden film of the geo barrier formed over my skin under the barrier of infinity. Naturally, the feathers, although incredibly sharp, simply stopped near the magician's barrier, but I did not pay attention to this and rushed after them in a purple flash towards the enemy, who decided not to dodge, seeing that I did not use reverse infinity, but at the last moment when my fist was supposed to meet Satoru's infinity, I felt my brain literally boiling from the tension, but at the last moment I was able to use the reverse infinity technique. I was already anticipating the sweet taste of success, but I was instantly reminded that I was still a student, because my fist met only air, and then a kick hit my back. True, this time the blow was not accompanied by pain, but by the sound of a broken geo barrier like a mirror, giving me a much-needed moment to retreat.

- Okay, you're trying to lure the enemy into a trap, but such a trick is not enough, and you came up with a way to buy enough time to dodge my blow. Well done. Now let's speed up. - said this monster words that were incredibly close to plunging me into despair.
