Parasites, Magic And Revenge

Raven noticed that the power of Miles's fireball was easily at the 5th level. Miles could create this spell effortlessly. Raven thought, "If he had to use all his mana for an attack, this spell could reach level 6 or 7." When he started the White Wolf level, he felt smaller next to Miles, who was taller than Raven. Raven leaned back, thinking, "If he can easily pass level 4, I’ll be able to see level 5," and began watching the fight.

As the fight began, Miles held his staff forward, while the wolf sat still like a pet dog. Raven couldn’t understand why it was acting this way. In his own fight, the wolf had made the first attack, but why was it behaving like this now? The wolf seemed more like a helpless puppy than a dog obedient to its master. As Miles’s expression grew serious, the wolf seemed to sink even more to the ground. Raven realized it was a gravity spell. As Miles increased his magical power, the wolf sank deeper.

From this point on, the scene was quite frightening. It was obvious that Miles was casting at least a 5th level gravity spell. When the spell reached its limit, the wolf’s entire body was torn apart, separating from its skin, and Miles had passed the section. Although Raven did not approve of this method of transition, Miles was still smiling.

When they clicked to start level 5, they noticed that the glass side of the room had expanded. The previous narrow room had grown to ten times its size. Curtains at the edge of the glass lowered, providing a wider view, and Raven gained a complete view of the enormous room. They both sensed the approaching danger. When level 5 began, a giant gorilla, at least the size of a village house, appeared. The gorilla's body shape was very pronounced, making it physically superior even to a gorilla of its size.

Miles wasted no time and created a pressurized wave of water, just like in the first section, and hurled it forward. The wave quickly injured the gorilla's abdominal muscles, but the wounds healed in no time. Raven thought that if it were a real gorilla with healing powers, it could regenerate until it ran out of mana. However, this simulation used the magical source of the great wizards from the Hunter family. Even if Miles struggled his whole life, he wouldn’t be able to consume even half of the monthly stored mana.

Miles realized that he needed to incapacitate the gorilla with a single powerful attack. Decapitating it was the best option. The gorilla, growing angrier from the injury, began jumping in place. Miles looked at Raven and decided to get serious. As the gorilla charged at Miles, raising its hands to crush him, Miles slipped between its legs and moved behind it. He tried to get as far away as possible, but with just a few steps, the massive gorilla was back on his tail.

Raven was doubled over with laughter as he watched from behind the glass; for the first time in his life, he was laughing so much. When Miles noticed that Raven was laughing, he realized he really needed to use all his power. Suddenly, he stopped and hurled a massive fireball behind the gorilla. As the gorilla turned around to distract itself, Miles created a large mass of earth at the tip of his staff and dropped it to the ground. The earth soldier that emerged was much larger than the previous ones, almost the same size as the gorilla.

Raven had stopped laughing and was now watching seriously. The earth giant and the gorilla were exchanging punches as they assessed each other. With every punch from the gorilla, the earth soldier's head would fly off, but thanks to Miles's mana, the soldier kept regenerating. As Raven wondered how Miles would win, Miles glanced at him and gestured, saying in a low voice, "Although I can use every spell, I never mentioned my true affinity, did I?" Miles smiled.

Raven's expression changed in surprise. The possibility that he could not only use every spell but also possess an affinity for one intrigued him further. Miles, holding his staff with one hand, extended both hands forward. The gorilla and the earth soldier were in combat, but Miles’s mana was beginning to dwindle, slowing the soldier's regeneration rate. At that moment, the gorilla started slamming the earth soldier from one side to the other, and Miles destroyed the soldier to avoid spending more mana.

A few seconds later, the gorilla redirected its attention back to Miles and began charging at him. However, Miles was ready now and shouted, "EVERFROST!" The entire room began to freeze from the ground up. The gorilla started to ice over as well, but it couldn’t move. The Everfrost spell was a powerful evolutionary ice spell that prevented anyone but the caster from breaking the ice. It granted the ability to turn objects into ice without touch and could affect very large areas. This spell was known as one of the strongest evolutionary affinities in magical communities, including dark cults, and the entire world was aware of this power
