"I say, Miss Bai Xiangtian, didn't you say hiding behind Shikigami was disgraceful? Aren't you using Shikigami right now?"

I looked at the other person teasingly, but at the same time, I had already prepared my usual weapons and skills for combat.

"Well... That's because... I instantly recognized that you're not an Onmyoji, but some kind of mage. If you were a mage and also had a Shikigami, how could I possibly defeat you? As an Onmyoji, it's only natural for me to use Shikigami."

"Oh, I see. So you actually figured out that I'm a mage."

"Of course, I am the strongest Onmyoji in this academy!"

After saying that, this guy raised their head proudly.

Unfortunately, the Onmyoji's clothes had too much fabric, so I couldn't see their figure at all.

But that's not important. After all, the Shikigami they summoned didn't look weak.

Should I break through with "Permafrost Mourning" and "Millennium Glacier" head-on?

It's very dangerous since there are too many people here. Using such large-scale skills would attract attention, and without "Battle Enchantment," there's a high chance of accidentally hurting someone nearby.

After all, not everyone here is on my team.

But small-scale magic doesn't have destructive power against Shikigami. Although there's "Torn Cross," it's not really magic... It's a combat skill...

So, how about exposing myself as someone who can use warrior skills in advance?

I don't want to reveal all my secrets here in East Continent for now, or it will be troublesome later on.

But...

Why is my luck so bad that I encountered the strongest Onmyoji in this academy all of a sudden? Could it be that this academy intentionally wants to test our strength... and it just so happens that I...

At first glance, I seemed like an Onmyoji. What a reckless move...

Title: Reckless Level 2 Upgraded

Suddenly, I saw a level-up notification, and a twitch appeared on the corner of my mouth.

Dear World, you must be watching, right? Don't criticize me in this way!

Staring at the opponent's Shikigami for a few seconds, I sighed helplessly.

There's no other choice. Let's compromise a little and use some special skills.

"Dark Knight Ultimate: Conjure Cavalry!"

You said not to use Shikigami, but you didn't say I couldn't summon a magical beast.

A blue giant wolf leaped out of the magic circle beneath my feet, landed on me, and then my right hand fiercely grabbed into the air. A blue-glowing ice magic sword gradually condensed in my hand.

Armor? Forget it. I always feel like they hinder more than they provide defense.

"Summoning a magical beast? Are... Are you a summoner?"

"Huh? Didn't you see the sword in my hand?"

"A warrior? How is that possible? This... Ah, forget it! Bring it on! Qinglong Guards, eliminate them!"

The weather turned bad as Bai Xiang pointed towards us angrily. Suddenly, the eyes of the Green Dragon Guard emitted a red light, and with a wave of his double swords, he swiftly approached us!

"Comrades, attack! Keep it occupied, I'll deal with its master."

To make sure it understood, I patted it on the back and pointed at the Green Dragon Guard.

Surprisingly, the Ice Wolf nodded and crouched low, transforming into a blue shadow and charging forward.

"Now, what are you going to do?" I smiled at Bai Xiang.

The Ice Wolf and the Green Dragon Guard clashed in midair quickly. Both were pushed back a step upon impact.

However, the Green Dragon Guard immediately followed up with the next attack. Crossing his curved blades over his chest, he swung them towards the Ice Wolf, sending two blade shadows flying towards it!

The Ice Wolf leaped up to dodge the attack and opened its mouth, shooting a dazzling blue magic projectile towards the Green Dragon Guard!

"What are you looking at?" Upon hearing Bai Xiang's voice, I immediately erected an ice shield in front of me. Soon after, numerous talismans flew towards the shield like bullets. Before long, cracks covered the surface of the shield, threatening to burst open!

"Oh, pretty impressive." I planted the shield into the ground and dashed out to the right. Simultaneously, a series of Ice Flowers emerged from the left side of the floor, piercing towards Bai Xiang!

"Are you a warrior or an elemental mage!" Bai Xiang yelled while performing hand seals. Finally, she pushed her hands forward.

"Destiny·Unity·Vajra·Seal!!"

The surrounding air suddenly trembled, and four golden shields appeared in the sky. They merged together in front of Bai Xiang!

The center clasp closed, revealing a defense enchantment emitting a white light around Bai Xiang!

The ice spikes all struck the defense enchantment without causing any damage.

Impressive, a mid-level magic like Ice Flower should weaken a mid-level magic shield, but from the previous situation, it couldn't even weaken it a bit.

Yin and Yang magic, interesting! I have to learn some to live up to myself!

Seeing that none of the ice spikes penetrated her enchantment, Bai Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, then try this." Upon hearing my voice, she turned her head and found that I had already circled behind her while she was defending.

With one hand holding an ice sword against her enchantment, I pointed my other hand towards the sky... A massive ice totem suddenly burst out from the magic circle, violently colliding with the hilt of my sword!

Of course, I quickly retracted my hand before the collision. I didn't want to be hit by my own ice totem.

Crack! My ice sword shattered into pieces.

But the impact of the ice totem against the enchantment caused Bai Xiang to involuntarily retreat to the other side.

"It's alright, let's try again."

I reached out my hand and summoned another ice arrow.

"Since we can summon it, we can take our time."

"You... you bastard! You can't break through like this! Stop scaring people here!"

"Well..."

I looked at the delicate ice sword and nodded involuntarily.

"You're right, the ice sword is too fragile, and the ice totem's power is not that great."

"Hmph! That's good enough!"

"But you still can't win, can you?"

I pointed over there, where the Green Dragon Guard and the Ice Wolves were still fighting.

"Are you planning to hide in there forever?"

"You... alright, I'll show you my ultimate move!"

"I was thinking the same thing~"

I pointed towards the sky.

"Suddenly, I remembered a technique that is much stronger than the Ice Totem, but it's too slow and can't be used against fast opponents. However... it's perfect against enemies hiding in enchantments. Come forth! Arcane·Ice Ship!"

The sky slowly darkened, and in the center, a blue magic circle gradually emerged!
