Life Of A Nobody - as a Villain

Chapter 243 Say hello to Rasengan, Arcadia



Chapter 243 Say hello to Rasengan, Arcadia



After Rio remembered their names and details about what they could do, they started strategizing about who will stay at the base and protect the core, and who will move out to deal with the enemies.

Currently in his team were 4 girls, 2 of them were healers, one an archer and the other one, who was just good at studying and solving puzzles. (Don't ask me what her role was)

In the rest 11 boys, there were 6 of them, who identified themselves as a damage dealer through using swords, spells or aura. 3 were just there to increase the count, as their original rank was F rank, and now feeling the mana of D rank into their body and they were half wobbly, looking around with dull eyes. Where mana was just leaking out of their body since they couldn't control it. The final 2 boys were elves, who were staring at him with unkind eyes, but dared not say anything. They just said, they can do everything. (Just the typical arrogant elf line)

Rio was thinking how he should deal with this test in less time, so he can go for the next match faster and beat up Leon if he sees him. He was sure Leon wouldn't be here, as coming across him was a sure loss. And luck probably won't be abandoning him so early.

"Hello, mic check. Test 1 2 3, check, check" Professor Harkin's voice rang out as a projection of his appeared in the hall they were in.

"Huh it seems it's working fine. Then let me start."

"As you can see, the students standing on your sides would be your teammates for the first match. The purple crystal ball floating above is the magic core you guys need to protect if you want to win. Lose that and it's game over for your match."

"Once you move out from the castle, you can see a golden pillar of light in the sky, that is the location of your enemy castle. So just hurry up and destroy that. Cause I forgot to mention there's a time limit for this match. If any team can't win this match at that time, both teams would be declared losers, so don't you dare play turtle games and wait for your enemy to come to your door."

Professor Harkin said the news with a smile, making every student just look at him and curse him. This guy's personality was simply too twisted. It seems the only reason he became a teacher was just so he could lash out on students without suffering any consequences.

"Also don't be a hero or arrogant fool and move out alone, cause you never know who your enemy is. It might be the last row chickens or rankers and stronger ones. So be careful going out."

"Show us a good fight."

After saying that professor Harkin's figure disappeared in the air. And a countdown started on everyone's watches.

'30 minutes huh. That's enough I guess.' Rio thought after looking at the timer for half an hour.

"Well, there's no need to plan more than that then, time's running out." Rio said as he clapped his hands to get everyone's attention.

"Okay, I want you guys to stay here and protect our base, while I go and deal with the other team. If I see that I won't be handling them in a little time, I'll come back or call you guys." Rio said and turned around to leave.

"Whaat?"

"Let's make a strategy first."

"No, I'll come with you."

"That's stupid, professor just said not to_"

"I'm not asking you, just stay there and protect the core. It'll be over in a few minutes anyway." His feet pushed on the ground, and next second his figure appeared in the stone pillar nearby. And then it disappeared from there, only his voice echoed in the backdrop. "If I lose this match, cause you lot can't protect the core until I come back, we'll have a nice long chat in the real world."

After finishing his words of wisdom, Rio left the area with the highest speed he could muster. The professor called this a castle, but it was just the stage with those pillars in the middle and then a garden outside, surrounded by a wall. When Rio jumped over a wall, he felt a slight disturbance of mana phasing over his body.

"A barrier huh. That makes things easy." Rio said and without looking back he started running towards the golden pillar he could see in the sky. He kept spreading his mana to see if he could find someone nearby, while his aura boosted his strength. But he didn't see any sign of life in the vicinity, no monsters or animals or anyone.

The area outside their bases was that of a barren mountain land. Few trees here and there, with stone and bumpy terrain on the ground. His steps left cracks on the stones every time they touched the ground and he looked like a gust of wind or ghost just flying through.

Since he didn't find anyone on the side, his speed was uninterrupted and soon he reached the place where he could even see the base of the other team.

Seeing the tiny pillars in the far distance, Rio used his first spell, BLINK and channeled his mana to teleport to that place in an instant.

His figure disappeared in space and next instant arrived over the base of the other party. He knew there was a barrier around the base so he just teleported himself outside the wall. And jumped high to reach a certain height and then used his mana to stay afloat.

In just these two spells and that little scanning, ⅓ of his current mana was gone. But he didn't care, all he wanted was to just finish this match as soon as possible.

[28 minutes 34 seconds]

Looking at the timer, it was clear how fast he crossed the distance, which was over two kilometers. It was common sense that since the announcement just finished, mostly all the teams would be using some time to strategize or make a plan, and that's why he just directly attacked. Even if he didn't win through this, he'd know everyone who were the members of the opposite team and go back to prepare for them.

He closed his eyes and pushed most of his mana out while channeling his main element. Soon black smoke started emitting from his body. But before it could spread everywhere, he waved his hand, and all that smoke started to gather around the palm of his hand. He used his remaining mana and elemental control to suppress all that darkness. Compressing it together, while rotating all that elemental energy in various directions to turn into one small spherical orb of darkness.

When finally he only had one orb of energy the size of his hand, floating above, he stopped himself. Looking at the black orb in his palms, a smile came to his face and he announced the name of this spell.

"Say hello to Rasengan, Arcadia."

As his words finished, he turned his palm and pushed the dark orb down with all his force.

Down below in the base, 15 students were gathered and talking about their plan of attack. When a loud bang ran out, and everyone could see ripples in the sky.

"There's a barrier." A girl with pink hair in a ponytail spoke up, as she saw the scene. She jumped up onto the stone pillars and looked towards the place where the sound came out.

She used her mana to enhance her vision and looked at the sky, but failed to see anything. "Did someone attack our base?"

"But the announcement just finished. Who is it?"

"Maybe, the barrier just opened to show that we can go out and start the match now. After all, why would anyone attack like this?"

The students below were discussing what was happening, when under their surprised vision the ripples in the barriers turned to cracks which then spread all around their base, and finally with a shattering sound the entire barrier collapsed and disappeared in silvery light.

That wasn't all, when the barrier disappeared, they could all see a tiny dot of black energy coming down. And the closer it got, the bigger it became. Before any of them could even understand what was happening, or try interrupting that spell. The orb hit the ground, and a loud explosion sound echoed everywhere. Deafening their ears, a few who managed to use mana Or aura to cover their ears on time and were still a little sane, couldn't even prepare for the next second, when a shockwave moved across their entire castle, destroying everything in its path. Trees, walls, pillars or people - whoever came between the shockwave got blasted out and then disappeared.

Rio watched everything from the sky, wiping the sweat that was formed over his forehead. Waiting for the dust, smoke and destruction below to settle down so he can go and finish the rest, when a notification popped up on his watch.

[Team A wins.]

[Match duration - 01 minute 48 seconds]
