Chapter 35: Devil Worshipper (2)
The two looked at each other. The subtle smile on Atlas’ face may not have meant much to most people, but the gods and goddesses watching him were already amused, and even Cordelia and the others who had seen what was happening were filled with great interest.
No one knew why, but this young man really seemed to be able to stand up to this woman who was many times stronger than him. Even if the corner of one lip was pushed up, the fact that the look was still interesting was obvious.
Atlas and Amber suddenly moved.
Atlas dived straight to the side and avoided a lightning ball sent by Amber. Immediately after that, he leapt forward and planned to swing his sword to attack Amber. However, all the instincts in his body must have kicked in at that moment because he suddenly threw himself to the left.
At that moment, a wave of flames rose from the arena floor. "Firewall", a fourth-grade spell, was a powerful defence system, especially for aura users.
However, there was apparently something Amber didn’t know.
Atlas suddenly extended his hand towards her, and then dozens of ice sickles began to emerge from Atlas’s hand.
This spell of black ice quickly made its way through the wall of flame, and soon the assistant professor Amber was forced to take a few steps backwards and prepare a mana shield.
It was just like the weak mana shield Lady Cordelia had prepared. It seemed that Amber wanted to buy time under the guise of creating a quick spell. Still, Atlas was not foolish enough to fall for such a trick.
