Chapter 52: Investigation Part 3
" Hey Duncan, this is very nostalgic, isn't it!!!? " Frank battles Duncan with his magic.
" The two of us are reunited in battle!!!! " he laughs while attacking Duncan, Duncan then uses his Wind Magic to reinforce his punch's damage as he hit him in the hand.
" You might say that!!!! but I'm so sorry if this battle will be short!!!! " Duncan then kicks Frank hard and then unleashes his skill.
< Sonic Roar Kick >
< Unleashing a Wind Magic Sonic Wave Roar after the user kicks the opponent, deals heavy injuries. >
With this magic skill, he then kicks Frank so far as he went many meters and hit the nearby wall he also continues his attacks with multiple mana-imbued punches in order to increase his damage even more.
< Sonic Wave Barrage Punch >
As Duncan punched Frank with multiple punches and heavy damage, Duncan then prepares the final blow but was then interrupted as Frank then uses his <Nail Magic> to unleash <Nail Thorns> from his stomach.
" Grrkkhhhhh...!!!! " Duncan grunts as he never thought Frank would dare to appear his nails from that body part.
"( He's more cunning than I thought!!! )"
"( Usually Frank would never think so hard during any battle due to his aggressiveness and arrogance. )" Duncan recounts what he remembers about Frank during his time with him in the guild before Frank choose another career path.
Before becoming an investigator, the Franklin that Duncan knows back then is the type of person that would never use any tricks to save himself as he relies heavily on his magic and his own strength that he usually boasts in front of others.
But now, after becoming an investigator, it seems he had changed his ways of fighting, unlike someone that Duncan knows from the Warblade Guild as it seems Frank is the type of arrogant person who still had the desire to change in order to succeed.
As Duncan realizes that he needs to devise a better plan to defeat Frank, he then steps on Frank's body and uses his Wind Magic to free himself from the Nails that stab him as he flips back far away.
"( It seems my usual pattern of attacks won't be useful against him. )"
"( I need to switch into a different kind of fighting style that he wouldn't guess so quickly. )" Duncan says as he now equips the item that he hasn't equipped earlier.
*< Weapon: Royal Polished Leaf Cutter (Epic) >
< Type: Sword >
< Effect: Cutting Precision, Fatal Magic Imbuing Damage >
*< Weapon: Royal Enhanced Floating Orb (Epic) >
< Type: Orb >
< Effect: This orb gives the user, some skills and spells based on the user's current status, this orb also gives the user some skills and spells that the House of Richter's trainers teaches to the User. >
As he equips his weapons again, Duncan uses his stance as he then unleashes < Sound Sonic Strike > to deal a fatal strike at Frank
< Sound Sonic Strike >
< Imbues the user with the Wind in order to increase the user's agility and speed, Imbues the user's weapon with the Wind. >
< Requires a lot of Mana. >
With the <Sound Sonic Strike>, Duncan managed to attack Frank very quickly which makes Frank bleeds as he had no guard against such fast attacks.
"( His attacks are too quick!!!! )"
"( I couldn't ... follow it... )" Frank says for he not just can't follow it but also can't defend against it since he doesn't know from where the attack will come which made he had no choice but to spawn many nails around his body as armor for more protection.
< Nail Magic, Nail Armor >
With the armor, Frank quickly gets protected from the fast attacks but sadly for him, Duncan already predicted that he will use armor magic, for Duncan knows well that Earth Based Elemental Magic-User will use a <Magic Armor> to defend themselves if they get cornered.
"( Just like Irina when she was cornered, she will immediately use Armor Magic to defend herself from unblockable dangers. )"
"( A usual Earth Element Magic usage during combat. )" Duncan says to himself for he remembers his experience when fighting Irina in those younger days before their marriage.
< Air Fang Striker >
< This ability lets the user unleash a sharp wind attack that can cut the hardest of metals. >
With the magic, Duncan slashes Frank's armor as if a mere metal which makes Frank shocked as never thought that Duncan's magic would pierce his hard nails.
" How...? " Frank asks as Duncan then proceeds to punch him for he only wants to subdue him and just wants to teach Frank a lesson to not ever think to touch his family, he then quickly slams Frank's face into the wall and cracks it further as the cracks get near to Donovan's medical room.
Inside the medical room, the tremble can be heard as Richard can sense something is happening to his partner.
" He's been defeated, isn't he? " he uses his <Trace Magic> to trace if Frank is still alright.
" I told him to not be aggressive during the investigation, now look at him. " Richard says but was quickly interrupted by Carlos who attacks his long range.
< Star Shooter >
< The User can shoot the opponent with Star Magic Blasts. >
With the blasts, Carlos barraging attacks Investigator Richard who quickly counters it with his blade and uses his <Trace Magic> to trace from where the attack comes while his eyes are still closed since it has not been recovered from Carlos's shining magic earlier.
"( No, he can block my attacks!!!! )" Carlos says while shooting Richard.
" It's no use, boy!!!!! " Richard says to Carlos.
" Give Donovan Richter Grimshaw to me for interrogation and we could end this fight peacefully... "
" Don't worry, I won't hurt him... " Richard promises but Carlos doesn't buy it for he knows the Nyx Nocterra House's investigators are cruel bastards who always torture every suspect they have Carlos then decides to end his attacks with < Star Shot Snipe >, for he aims for the investigator's head.
"( Gotcha!!! )"
*SHOOT*
*CLANG!!!*
" What... the...? " Carlos was shocked as investigator Richard quickly counters his attacks and then leaps to almost plunged his blade into his neck but holds it.
" Don't even think about it boy... "
" Even with my eyes closed, I can still deal with enemies that aim my head using a sniping type magic thanks to my many experiences in battle,
" Unlike you who can only face me with the Tier 5 magic that you were born with since birth. "
" Son of the Calibur House? " Richard recognizes Carlos using his <Trace Magic> which shocks him.
