…
Tron narrowed his eyes in satisfaction as he felt the muscles in his legs, arms, and body twitch and tremble.
Warm currents flowed through his muscles like lukewarm water through his skin.
The feeling of his weak body getting stronger was intensely satisfying. Although only his physique had reached the level of an adult male, it was way better than his previously skinny figure.
Suddenly, he heard a pitiful cry sound out, making him freeze in his steps!
It was a human voice, there was no way he would be wrong.
How could there be other people here?
Tron knew not to cause himself more trouble and immediately turned to leave.
But then his heart contracted as a chill rose from the pot of his belly. The hair on his neck stood straight on end.
Immediately, he dived to the ground without hesitation.
"Whoosh!"
A faint green blade made entirely of air tore through his collar, cutting dangerously near his neck before silently splitting the tree behind him into pieces.
Tron's shirt immediately became soaked in sweat. If the wind blade had sliced through him, he would have been decapitated!
"Fellow Acolyte, since you've already arrived, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
A spectacular handsome young man lowered his glowing, enchanted gloved right hand as he said with a brilliant smile on his lips.
His voice was mild and gentle, completely different from the fierce killing intent displayed just before.
This young man was Jason. A popular and powerful Acolyte Mage amongst the first-year students. And was currently the captain of the first-year mage at Darkbane Magical Academy.
Jason Bourne, a talented genius who has risen to fame quite recently for his talents and affinity for magic.
It was even rumored that the Arch Magus might actually accept him as his Personal student, that's how talented he was!
On the other side, was another student who had fallen to the ground, a long gash across his chest and belly.
His blood pooled on the ground and he gasped desperately for air.
There was still a little bit of the pride and arrogance that he had displayed before. He was actually one of the Acolyte Mages who had been with Xavier earlier and had watched and laughed as Xavier almost killed him.
As the young man saw who arrived, a light suddenly burst out from his eyes. He shouted out, "It's you, Tron! Hurry and help me! Jason has gone insane, he wants to kill me!"
Tron was completely unprepared to stumble onto a murder scene. He was stunned. But, his brain worked rapidly as he judged the situation.
His face immediately went pale, "No, no! I don't know him!"
Jason's eyes sparkled. His smile seemed to become even calmer. "It seems that Gillard knows you though?"
Tron immediately shook his head firmly. "I have never met that guy even in my past life!"
He had only seen the bastard once and it was when his predecessor had died! Why would he claim to know him?
Gillard roared out loud. "Tron, now that you have stumbled into this today, Jason will never let you go! He has also been severely wounded and that last strike just now has consumed the rest of his mana. Hurry up and kill him, otherwise, once he recovers his mana, we will both die here!"
The first-year captain chuckled and clapped his hands together. Gillard's thoughts are quite intricate. You want to push Tron to his death and waste my remaining strength. How admirable." He looked towards Tron and sighed.
"Gillard's plotting nearly cost me my life. Luckily, you appeared at the right time. We can directly split the harvests here."
The genius pointed to Gillard and said, "Kill him and we can equally divide whatever I find on him, and we also do not have to tell anyone of what occurred tonight. How about it?"
Tron's eyes revealed hesitation as though contemplating. However, he sneered coldly inside. He wasn't so naive to think Jason would let him live.
"The further we delay, the more troubles can occur. Tron, have you made your decision? I promise you that I will not harm you after this and like I said, half the loot will be yours."
Seeing that Tron might actually accept Jason's offer Gillard raged,
"It's not so easy to kill me!"
With his last strength, he lifted his arm and his gloves glowed as wisps of arcane energy sipped out of him like a flood.
Suddenly, he slapped his palm forward as an ethereal magical circle appeared in mid-air!
The circular shape hummed and glowed with a vibrant fiery light as intricate, swirling patterns that resembled ancient runes appeared at the edge of the circle.
The circle, bordered by a thin, pulsating line of energy that seems to hum with power, hovered in front of Gillard's outstretched hand, creating a mesmerizing visual effect.
In the next moment, the orange magical circle turned and twisted as though something was being unlocked.
Suddenly, the air started to heat up as the molecules in the air sparked and suddenly burst into flames.
