The Golem Mage

"And where do you think you’re going?"

Just as Alec and the gang were about to exit the Teaching premises, they heard another voice calling out to them, Alec couldn’t help but facepalm himself, feeling tired of these interruptions.

He wondered if he would ever get a chance to focus on his own cultivation without having to deal with people looking for a fight all the time just because he was more easier to bully than Beatrice.

"I remember you,"

Alec said, pointing at Lucas Blade who had blocked their path.

"You were grouped together with that blue robed idiot over there, If he lost so pitifully against me, what makes you think you would have any chance?"

Alec wasted no time in mincing his words, He wanted to make it clear that he had no interest in getting tangled up with Lucas, who had a smug look on his face.

"Don’t compare me to a weakling, Sure, he might have talent in utilizing his Mana, but when faced with a dangerous situation, he’d be the first to die, He’s still a greenhorn, On the other hand, I’m different."

Lucas seemed determined to fight and challenge himself, now that the person who he wanted to defeat has already been defeated he felt he should aim higher and challenge himself.

Alec could tell that Lucas was a battle maniac, but he had no desire to get involved with him.

Before Alec could take a step forward, Brandon swiftly stepped in, He turned back and stared at Alec, saying confidently, "I got this."

Confused, Lucas pointed his sword towards Alec, insisting,

"But he’s the one I want to fight."

Brandon swiped his saber towards Lucas, sending a streak of red-colored Qi that clashed with the sword, forcing it to move away from Alec.

"As a swordsman, you should know that pointing your blade at someone point blank is not only provocation but also an insult,"

Brandon explained.

"And when that someone is Alec, it’s like disrespecting the whole Gordons Younger generations, So, fight me instead, Let our blades determine who the best is, If you can defeat me, I promise to persuade Alec to fight you."

Brandon said, and Lucas looked at Alec as if to confirm if he would truly step in, Alec nodded his head, relieved that Brandon had taken on the burden.

It was nice to know he wasn’t alone and that he didn’t have to face every problem that arose by himself.

"Shall we start then?"

Brandon asked, unveiling his humming and vibrating saber, which seemed eager for action.

Without waiting for an invitation, Lucas lunged straight for Brandon, swinging his great sword effortlessly with just one hand, Alec couldn’t help but be surprised by Lucas’s casual handling of such a heavy weapon.

Brandon quickly responded by parrying the strike with his saber.

As soon as Brandon parried the strike, he realized he was being pushed back, He frowned when he noticed the line of footprints on the ground, clearly showing his loss in a contest of strength against Lucas.

But Brandon was not one to be discouraged by such an easy defeat, He gathered his courage and charged towards Lucas.

Lucas sent casual strikes towards Brandon, testing his abilities, Brandon, in turn, found ways to evade the attacks, using the opportunity to observe Lucas’s movements.

He circled around Lucas, parrying and dodging, trying to find a weak link in his opponent’s stance and sword art, However, even the weak link seemed to constantly change, giving Brandon no chance to land a fatal blow.

"Boring!" Lucas exclaimed.

[< Ki Swipe >]

Suddenly, Lucas grew tired of the cat and mouse game with Brandon, He displayed a set of incredible foot techniques before thrusting his sword forward.

Brandon’s danger sense began to blare as he found himself on the receiving end of the attack, However, in that moment, he remembered a saying his father always told him – in every hardship, an opportunity door opens up.

He started to notice the weak links he had been unable to lock onto earlier, He understood that Lucas launching such an attack meant his opponent was now vulnerable in terms of defense."

Although Brandon had no idea how Lucas was able to generate such powerful energy for his attack, he wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip away.

He dashed towards Lucas’s sword, causing Lucas to flinch at the unexpected turn of events, However, Lucas quickly regained his composure, being a seasoned warrior unlike the mages in Pale’s group.

"Clang!"

Brandon’s saber clashed with Lucas’s sword, but instead of what Lucas was expecting, Brandon let go of his saber the moment they clashed.

Letting it fly back, Brandon knew he wouldn’t be able to best Lucas in that way, He immediately ducked and threw an uppercut straight for Lucas’s jaw.

Caught off guard, Lucas swiftly responded and blocked the punch with his other arm.

"Got you," Brandon said, smiling for the first time since the fight started, Lucas finally realized he had left himself wide open to Brandon, who had closed the distance between them.

Unable to defend himself with his hands occupied, Lucas was about to find out what Brandon’s real move was.

Brandon’s hands moved swiftly, striking Lucas straight in the Adam’s apple region of his neck.

"Argh!" Lucas couldn’t help but release his sword as he used his hands to clutch his throat in pain, But while Lucas was in agony, Brandon was just getting started.

Brandon quickly positioned himself behind the still choking Lucas and tightly locked both of his arms around his waist.

He then turned him over his shoulders, delivering a suplex that smashed Lucas’s neck straight into the ground, causing him to immediately lose consciousness, it was a fast and quick victory that happen unexpectedly after Brandon started seeing The weak links this was an attribute of the technique he cultivated it makes him see the place much vulnerable to attack.

"Sweet, my brother wins!"

Arthur ran up to Brandon, shouting with excitement, Brandon was heaving heavily, struggling to catch his breath.

Even though they had fought for just a few minutes, he knew that if he had made any mistakes in his plan or moves, he could have been the one unconscious instead, Lucas’s raw power was truly intimidating.

But in the end, Brandon had emerged victorious, surpassing and even surprising himself.

"Let’s go, brother,"

Alec said, walking over and draping his arm over Brandon’s shoulders, with Arthur doing the same on the other side.,They placed him in the middle as they walked away, one of other clansmen picking up Brandon’s saber.

And this time, nobody dared to intervene with the mages from the Gordons clan, It had become apparent to everyone that they possessed great physical strength and Formidable combats skills , so everyone wisely decided to give them space, Even if someone wanted to cause trouble for them, it certainly would not be within the confines of the Teaching premises

Where they are restricted from using there Mana.
