Kyle could hear the sounds of battle behind him as he drew another symbol hurriedly on the platform. He clenched his jaw tightly and with another stroke, he was done with the Array.
He gazed at the place where Mia was standing a while ago and hurriedly took out all the mana stones present in the storage ring present on his finger.
"Not enough..."
Kyle cursed and his mind raced as he gazed back. Oliver's bloodied figure was flung backward as he blocked the red-haired man's attack.
Kyle's breath hitched when he saw a familiar figure standing nonchalantly between the door.
'It's that man...'
He shook his head and looked back at the Array. Within a second, he made a decision.
'I need mana, I am not sure if it will work.'
He bent down and placed both of his palms on the platform. He did read about this method in one of the Ancient books he acquired from the Tower but he only comprehened a few lines so he wasn't sure if it would work.
With a deep breath, he threw away the anxiousness eating away at his heart and solely focused on the mana present in his body, circulating it gently around his wrists before injecting the mana within the Array symbols.
It was a very strange feeling because instead of the natural mana present in the surroundings, he was using his mana as a catalyst to fuel the Array.
His hand trembled slightly as the mana within his body drained at a visibly fast speed.
Within two seconds half of his mana was gone. Kyle's eyes shone slightly as he saw the symbols reacting under his guidance.
"It's worked."
Relief appeared on his pale face as he stood up and looked at the Array.
"It will activate automatically within five minutes."
Kyle's eyes landed on the battle behind him. He stepped out from behind the glass container and sharply gazed around.
The strange mana movement behind the container attracted Aoky attention as he squinted his eyes to look at the container but he was distracted due to Kyle's presence.
'I didn't sense this kid? Where did he come from so suddenly?'
So many questions appeared in his mind as his curious eyes followed Kyle who looked around with a deadpan expression.
What happened next made his scalp go numb and he almost stepped forward to grab Kyle's neck.
Kyle gazed at every single individual and grabbed a large glass shard in his hand tightly.
"I am done. We have only five minutes."
He shouted and immediately afterward all students knew what he meant. Alec almost cursed how were they going to free themselves in five minutes?
The moment this thought flashed through Alec's mind, Kyle's figure flashed as he used 'Instant Teleportation' to appear behind Alec's opponent.
It was too sudden the man clad in black wasn't able to react properly even Alec was stunned.
Kyle slashed at the man's neck from behind. The man's hair stood up as he tilted his body out of reflex and avoided the sharp shard from penetrating his neck. Instead, the glass shard pierced through his shoulder and he cried out in pain.
"Attack."
Kyle shouted and Alec snapped out before stabbing his opponent with a deadly strike.
The (B)-Rank individual was overwhelmed, he wanted to block Alec's attack but Kyle threw a fireball at his face and Alec's Lance penetrated his abdomen.
With a loud shriek, the man dropped down. Alec could sense the man only fainted because he was breathing. He wanted to attack again when a painful cry echoed and both Kyle and Alec looked at Blane.
"Help Carcel."
Alec shouted at Kyle and dashed forward to help Blane.
Kyle's eyes landed on Carcel's figure, instead of moving a large ice spear appeared above his head. Even though he seemed distracted he was focused on the cyan-hair man standing between the door. The man didn't move even when Kyle and Alec took out one of their strongest members but the faint anger on his face wasn't something he could hide.
Kyle could feel the man's eyes looking at him from head to toe with intense curiosity but he didn't gaze back and threw the ice spear at the opponent Carcel was facing.
With a flash the floating ice spear crashed into the unsuspecting enemy and many ice fragments scattered around, heading straight toward the other men in black.
The atmosphere around the room became chilly and Kyle's gaze flickered for a second. He shook his head.
'I need to stay conscious.'
Meanwhile, after Alec saw Kyle's skill. He opened his palm and shouted.
"Cyclonic Gale."
A small tornado appeared in his palm and within a second it danced around Alec turning large enough to engulf everything in front of him.
Hundreds of wind blades swirled within the tornado and it almost crushed the opponent fighting Blane. Large gusts of winds flew around the room and the ice present on the ground scattered as the tornado finally dissipated after gravely wounding the (C)-Rank man.
Aoky merely chuckled but the vein bulging on his forehead gave him away. He wanted to applaud because true to its name the Royal Academy students were very strong. He clicked his tongue and finally stepped forward to stop everything when Kyle turned around and pointed the glass shard at him.
With a raised brow, Aoky looked at Kyle with amusement.
"You want to attack me? Okay come on I will give you a chance."
His voice was filled with disdain and anger as he pointed his finger at Kyle who looked at him with a dark expression.
Alec gazed at Aoky with gritted teeth.
"Kyle, he is strong! Don't battle with him!"
He shouted but Kyle's eyes were fixed on the cyan-hair man as he replied with a serious expression.
"We don't have time. So finish them up and step on the platform!"
Aoky was confused but Alec and the others knew what he meant. They became aggressive in their attacks and slowly started moving backward toward the platform.
The cyan-hair man's gaze followed them when Kyle curled up his finger with a mocking smile.
"Your opponent is me. Didn't you say you will give me a chance or are you going to back off now?"
Aoky scoffed.
"Alright come on!'
However, what happened next almost made his blood boil in anger.
