Chapter 187 - Team
These six people were exceptional and Souta saw it. They didn't break a sweat with his pressure and they almost break free with his [Shadow Bind] spell.
Now that Souta was a Rank 3 Mage, his level 10 [Shadow Bind] spell could hold down the third evolution monster for a few seconds. It's not worth mentioning to the peak third evolution monster that he fought in the Fersch dukedom.
Also, if given more time Souta was sure that they could break the [Shadow Bind] spell. It seems that the power of these people was close to B-rank. He guessed that if they trained hard for a few months they would become a full-fledged B-rank.
Souta looked at Jimmy and said, "Dismissed everyone except for the ones I choose."
Jimmy nodded at him before he looked at the people and said, "Everyone, you can go now except for those six people. You don't need to wait for me."
Souta and Jimmy waited until all the unnecessary people left. Only Souta, Jimmy, and the six people were present in this place.
Jimmy looked at the six people with a serious expression and said, "From today onwards, all of you will be under Souta's wings. He's your captain so treat him with respect."
Souta smiled and he waved his hands. "Don't worry about it. I just wanted you to follow my instruction in our expedition. You can start introducing yourself."
The six people exchanged glances and a man wearing a gray tank top stepped forward. His physique was large and his height was almost two meters. He had brown skin and two antennae on the top of his head.
'Some sort of insect demi?' Souta wondered while looking at the man.
The man looked at Souta and said in a polite tone, "I'm Jagret, an adventurer working under the Lanny corp's banner. Mostly, my position is fighter other than tank. It's my pleasure to meet you, captain."
Souta smiled and said, "Nice to meet you too, Jagret." He then looked at the remaining five people.
A matured woman with shoulder-length chestnut-colored hair stepped forward. She was wearing black tight clothes and knee-length black boots. Her clothes showcase her curves and s.e.xiness. She had two daggers hanging on her waist. A tail with black fur was sticking out of her back.
"I'm Charise, a new worker here in the Lanny corp. My position is a scout and a ranger. I'm looking forward to the expedition of our team." The matured woman introduced herself to Souta with a seductive smile on her face.
"I'm also looking forward to our expedition," Souta said to her and he looked at the remaining four people.
Three of them looked at each other and nodded. The three of them stepped forward as they decided to introduce themselves at the same time. One of them was female while two were male.
The female looked at Souta with a serious expression. She was a tall woman with a voluptuous body. Her long black colored hair was tied in a ponytail at the back of her head. Two swords were hanging on her waist. She had a cold look on her face.
"I'm Donna, a samurai." She simply said with a serious expression. After she introduced herself she stepped back.
Then, one of the men looked at Souta with a smile. He was holding a long staff. He had long green hair and pointed ears. There's no doubt that he was an elf.
"I'm Evren, I'm well versed in nature attribute spell. Mostly supporting spell and healing spell, but I know some offensive spell. It's nice to meet you, captain." The elf introduced himself in a polite tone.
"It's nice to meet you, Evren," Souta replied to him. Four people already introduced themselves so there's two more left.
"I'm Finsi, a wanderer, and I applied here in the Lanny corp. My position is a shielder." A man stepped forward and said in a loud voice. He was short but his physique was large. His muscles were bulging out of his clothes. His features were sharp and he had a thick beard.
Souta smiled and nodded at him. He then looked at the remaining man.
"Ah, let's do this..."
A man stepped forward with a bored look on his face. He was tall but his body was not large. One could say that he was thin if they didn't look at him properly. One of his ears was pointed and one was a normal ear. His pointed ear was full of earrings. His greenish eyes were slanted and look fierce. His hair was mohawk and its color was green.
He looked like an ordinary punk of a modern world but Souta couldn't deny his strength. This man was a strong person.
"I'm Ginvi and I'm a Mage. To be precise, an earth attribute Mage." The man introduced himself to Souta. He narrowed his brows while looking at Souta and said, "I say that your strong but I think that it's not enough to get above me."
"Oh...?" Souta looked at Ginvi with an amused expression. He grinned and said, "You are not convinced..."
"Yeah, I'm doubting your strength..." Ginvi looked at Souta and grinned. His fighting intent was leaking all over the place. It seems that he really wanted to fight Souta right here in this place.
"Everyone stand back!" Souta shouted and he looked at Ginvi with a smile. "Let's make it fast!"
He took a step forward and the ground turned black. Ten black balls materialized beside him and it scattered around the whole field.
"What's that?!"
Ginvi looked around the black balls before he looked at Souta. He didn't know what's the purpose of those black balls if it's not going to attack him. He better avoided those black balls as he didn't know what it could do.
He saw Souta looking at him with a grin on his face. He gritted his teeth as his mana flared up. He then stomped his foot on the ground and spikes made of rocks burst out of the ground.
[Ground Spike]!
Swoosh!
Souta suddenly vanished and Ginvi didn't saw him move. "Teleportation?!" Ginvi turned around and saw Souta five meters away from him.
Souta smiled and thought that he had great advantages over most of the people here in this world. He knew a lot of different spells and knew what it could do and its effect.
From the lowest tier to highest tier spells, Souta knew a lot of it. That's why he could guess some of his opponent's spells. While his opponent didn't have any idea what's his spell at all.
"Let me show you something..." Souta said with a smile and he quickly looked at his skill tree.
Above the [Shadow Ball] spell there were two spells and it was the same for the [Shadow Spike] spell. But he wasn't looking at those four spells. Souta was looking at one spell at the corner of his interface.
He unlocked it when he was promoted to the Rank 3 Mage. This spell was called [Gravitational Ball]. It was a high-grade tier 2 spell.
He had 11 skill points left and he used 2 skill points to learn this spell.
*Ding!*
[Do you want to use 2 skill points to learn this spell? Yes/No?]
'Yes...' Souta said in his mind without hesitation.
*Ding!*
[You've successfully learned Gravitational Ball spell!]
The skill points that he needed to learn this spell was the same as the tier 1 spell. That's why Souta wouldn't waste any of his skill points to level up his tier 1 skill. He will use this spell to promote his mage class to a battle mage class.
Before he couldn't learn any of the tier 2 spells in his skill tree because it was locked as his rank class was too low. But right now, he managed to unlock one tier 2 spell when he promoted his rank class.
The magic circle of the [Gravitational Ball] spell was imprinted in his inner soul. Souta could easily use this spell right now.
Ginvi just looked at Souta as he didn't know what Souta was planning to do. He didn't know any of Souta's spells or how he managed to use teleportation to avoid his attack.
"Damn! This is irritating!" Ginvi cursed and he rushed towards Souta without any care. He was annoyed at the fact that Souta was still looking at him with a smile on his face.
Souta opened his palm and a palm-sized black ball formed on top of it. The black ball floated around Souta.
Pieces of rocks floated around Ginvi and it turned into sharp spears. He pointed at Souta and said, "Go, [Piercing Earth Spear]!"
He then crouched down and placed both of his palms on the ground.
"[Ground Quake]!!"
The ground beneath Souta's feet split up and the sharp spears flew towards him at high speed.
Swoosh!
Under everyone's gazes, Souta flew in the air and he stopped in the mid-air. He looked down at Ginvi from above. There were many uses of the [Gravitaional Ball] spell and one of them was to fly.
This spell used 5 mana points per second and it will decrease as long as he level up this spell.
Souta opened his mouth and said, "Do you still want to continue or not?"
"Yeah, I wanted to continue our battle. Do you think that you can defeat me easily just because you can fly?" Ginvi said to Souta with a grin.
"Yeah, I could defeat you but I think it will not be that easy," Souta replied.
Both of them looked at each other with fierce looked. Their aura was rising and it was enveloping the whole area.
"Stop! If you want to fight do it somewhere else. Don't fight here in the Lanny corp's land." Jimmy said to the two with a serious expression.
