Rivalry: Infinite Buff

Chapter 11- Mr. Logan

"Enough!" Mr. Logan interrupted.

"Mr. Logan, do not worry. No one would dare to hurt you as long as I am standing here!” ToughBlazer crossed his arms to resist the continuous damage from the shadow mask.

Seeing ToughBlazer dripping with sweat, Ivan could tell he was influential but he also knew it was just a matter of time. Most assassins were not known for their defensive skills. As ToughBlazer continued to try and resist the attack, Mr. Logan opened the carriage door and stepped out. Ivan and the large group surrounding the carriage were immediately mesmerized by the icy figure. 

Mr. Logan looked to be covered in freshly fallen snow; a white robe, white hair, and pure-white skin. People whispered about how unfair it was that Mr. Logan had a flawless appearance but from the cold eyes that stared, they could feel strength. 

Ivan stared blankly as if his soul was being pulled out of his body. He could not believe how one person could have such magnificent features. The other thing he could not understand was why such a perfect girl would call herself “Mr.”

When Mr. Logan stepped out of the carriage and saw ToughBlazer locked by Mirage’s powerful skill, “It’s okay, I know you will never let anyone hurt me. Trust me though, I am not that little girl anymore. Just leave it to me!” 

She didn’t hesitate to cast a spell, “Flash Transmission!”

Ivan saw a ray of light come down from the sky and cut through the shadow mask, ToughBlazer suddenly disappeared from where he was standing and appeared behind Mr. Logan. ToughBlazer was still gripping his dagger and was confused as to how he was free from the attack, “Flash Transmission? You have mastered the spell? Congratulations!” 

"Um…" Mr. Logan nodded.

Seeing how easily Mr. Logan resolved the spell, Mirage frowned and then waved his magic stick to remove the shadow mask, “I have heard about how charming Mr. Logan is but seeing for myself just once is better than hearing about it one hundred times. Mr. Logan, I will be straight with you. The HP fragment, if you give them to me now, I will not only spare your life, but I will also introduce you to Mr. Dark Dragon.”

Mr. Logan became even more enraged by Mirage’s remarks, “I don’t have any fragments, and I will not give you anything. As for Mr. Dark Dragon, I am more curious to know if your dragon is as magical as people say!” 

"Since you have refused my offer…Kudos Blade!" Mirage cast another spell and lifted his magic stick causing the surrounding energy to surge wildly and quickly gather around the stick. In the blink of an eye, a blue light blade flew toward Mr. Logan’s face, yet she did not panic. Instead, she closed her beautiful eyes and to summon a white light shield to protect her from the flying blade she whispered, “Geo-shield”.

As soon as the two powerful skills connected, sparks erupted in a different direction. Two people who did not have time to avoid the sparks had their armor burned up within seconds and they fell to the ground, rolling and howling in pain.

"Step back!" Mr. Logan warned.

"Huh, Element Massager?  That is interesting. I’ve always heard that Element Massager can manipulate any element in nature. I am wondering if you can handle the following spell," Mirage smiled evilly.

"Doppelganger!" As Mirage uttered a mantra viciously, five clones appeared behind Mirage. With six Mirages surrounding Mr. Logan, no one could tell who’s the real one. The six Mirages raised their magic sticks together, and Kudos Blades that raised from six sticks even made Mr. Logan step back.

People hadn’t noticed how exhausting it was for her to defend herself against the blade. She knew there was no way she would be able to avoid six of them. After she thought for a moment, Mr. Logan decided to give up on defense but proactively attacked, “Flash Transmission!”

"Well, I knew it," Mirage smiled confidently.

“Vanish Force!”

Mr. Logan didn't consider that Mirage had been waiting for that moment and just as she was about to transmit again, she realized she had lost all mana. She figured it had to be because of the Vanish Force and sneered, “Let me tell you something. Element Massager is not best for defense but it is for attacking. This is the most reckless decision you’ve ever made to trap me near to you.”

"Fire Star," Mr. Logan raised her magic stick and chanted.

A huge flame that looked like a comet suddenly appeared in the sky. It was speeding toward all six Mirages with great force and as -1000 continuously appeared above the six heads, five of the vanished. The powerful spell only left one figure standing in front of them. 

Ivan assumed that it was the real Mirage he could see and it was obvious that he was seriously injured by the Fire Star. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, "Great! I finally understand why people always praise highly of Element Massager, but you’re wrong if you think you can win like this.”

Mirage tried to gather mana and launch Kudos Blade again, expecting to hit Mr. Logan with a deadly attack.

"No!" Mr. Logan shouted out as she was trying to recover from the Fire Star attack.  

"s**t!" Realizing Mr. Logan was in an extremely dangerous situation, ToughBlazer yelled and rushed at Mirage with his dagger.

Ivan was standing by enjoying the show, there was no room for him to play with the powerful NPCs anyway. He was suddenly distracted from the attack by a message that appeared on his screen.
