บท 24: Magic Cryst

Currently, the fight between Mina and the second Elder rat was nearing its end.

*Mirror Of Truth and Lies!* She shouted for the name of her magic skill.

After she shouted the name of her magic skill, 2 rectangular objects with smooth and flat surfaces that facing her on both sides have materialized to her right and left. The objects were the same height as her. And her images reflected in every one of these objects.

This one of her special magic that able to create double of herself. No, not just double, the truth was..... She created 2 copies of herself.

From the smooth surfaces, 2 identical figures walk out of it.

This Magic Skill was rank AA in the Academy.

No doubt Mina was a prodigy in terms of magic.

Without a delay, the 3 identical Mina were rushing towards the Elder rat.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The Elder rat shot Earth Balls to the approaching trio!

One of Mina's clone leaped ahead and materialized a shield out of thin airs then blocked the incoming clumps of earth.

Bang! Bang! Bang.....

Loud bang when the Earth balls of Elder rat met by the round radiant shield, that condensed from pure energy.

The clone with a shield fully blocked the attacks from the Elder rat.

Eek?!! A disbelieving shriek had escaped from the Elder's mouth after witnessing its attacks were now useless.

Mina and the second clone leaped to shorten the distance between them and the monster.

Her hands gripping the two shining dagger in reverse position, while her second clone materialize a long sword.

The Elder rat stepped back unconsciously when it noticed the fast-approaching enemy. It tried to hurl another wave of Earth Balls, but the clone with a shield will leap and block it with ease.

A bead of sweat appeared on Elder rat back head.

In an, elapse of time, Mina and her clone passed through the Elder rat and stop at 10 meters away, with her back facing the enemy's back.

Like a scene out of the movie, they paused for a moment. No movement was visible in a second.

Kaaaahhhhhhrrrrr!!!

Suddenly, the Elder rat shouted a cry which followed by spurting blood, then the rat staggered and fell. It's back facing the dim sky. Right, it's dim, the sun was hidden in the dark clouds.

2 broad wounds in the form of an 'X' appeared on the Elder rat's body. And another long horizontal cut on the abdomen.

Woosh! Without looking back at the unmoving monster, she flung her daggers in the air to rid the blood on it.

The 2 Mina after the fight has entered the mirror and disappeared shortly.

Kling! Klang! Round object rolled out from the Elder's body. It's glimmering faintly into bluish brilliance.

Out of reflex, Mina glance at it. Her eyes abruptly exude an exciting blaze.

Magic Cryst! She exclaimed.

This Magic Cryst was a super rare object. That sold for thousands of gold coins. Not just that, it could break through a magician.

Right now, she was an apprentice assassin.

Maybe after ansorbing the magical aura inside it, she would advance into a Bronze-Grade Assassin.

Mina took it hastily and hide abruptly in her chest area, inside the black-fitted suit she wore. She had two tempting mountains within her cloth. Well... this was a wonderful spot to hide an object, like Magic Cryst.

Since her mountains were bigger than the Magic Cryst which was as big as a golf ball, the object is unnoticeable inside her suit.

It also mean..... That one of her mountains would squish flat to camouflage the Magic Cryst.

Aside from the talk about mountain, Mina extremely joyful for picking a Magic Cryst.

Since this Elder, had dropped it..... So maybe the other one also...

But when she glanced at the weakened Elder she first knockdown, Mina wrinkled her brows.

The suppose weakened monster had gone!

"Hey, worm!" She tried to call the person with him. But no one answering the call.

She looked everywhere, but how to find a person who used invisibility magic? Mina was still an apprentice.

Apprentice magicians incapable of perception skill.

Since nothing to do, she decided to leave after collecting the valuable loots from the dead monsters.

At one of the rundown building, Elder rat tied in a shabby-wooden chair while weakly gasping for breath. And a man standing beside it wearing a wide grin on his face.
