Chapter Ten Between Friends

  Because I was injured, my mom helped me ask for leave from school and let me rest at home.

  After finishing breakfast, Dad and Mom went to work, I lay alone in bed, boredly staring at the ceiling.

  "Longbow, Longbow, are you at home? Quickly open the door for me."

  "Who is it? So early."

  "Oh dear, I can barely hear my own voice."

  "Ao De, how did you come." I said while opening the big gate and entering the courtyard.

  "Longbow, I heard you were injured, are you feeling better now?"

  "It's much better now, I was really scared yesterday, how did you manage to catch up with me? What do you think, why would a demon beast appear on the edge of our village?"

  "Who knows, anyway, here it is, this is Xue Ling Dan, I had to beg my dad for half a day before he would give it to me."

  "Ah, you're bringing all your dad's treasures for me to eat?" Xue Ling Dan was the village chief's treasure, which Ode's grandfather had spent many years refining and had a great therapeutic effect on fire poison.

  "No need, Ode, thank you, I'm almost fine now, don't waste this spiritual elixir."

  "Alright, alright, don't be polite, eat quickly, I still want to practice magic with you when you're done."

  "Aode, thank you." I ate the Snow Spirit Dan with red eyes. A cool feeling permeated my entire body, and I felt much more comfortable.

  "No need to thank me, who made you my elder brother? I'll still be counting on you in the future. Once we become successful, just taking care of each other is enough, brother." - XiXi

  "Alright, from now on we brothers will share good fortune and bad together, eat delicious food and drink spicy soup, haha." I'm 2 months older than Ode, we've been together since childhood so he always calls me "older brother". (Why did I have to be older than him? When we were young and played together, he always made me let him win, saying it's about respecting your elders.) I really didn't expect Ode to treat me this well.

  The pure feelings between children are the most precious.

  "Why didn't you go to school today, Ode?"

  "Our teacher recently made us stay at home to concentrate on enhancing our magical powers. In a few months, isn't it time for the graduation exam? So he gave us a one-month break first. Isn't meditation the same everywhere?"

  "Oh, you guys are so great. Compared to your good fortune, I... *sigh* Looking at Orde, I really regret not choosing water magic with him back then."

  "Longbow, we've been so busy studying for the past two years that we haven't had much time together. How's your magic studies going? Is your teacher not treating you well? Every time I see you, you look so down. Ever since I followed Old Devil, I've been out early and back late every day, rarely seeing Ode. Even when I do see him at night, I'm exhausted from being tormented by Old Devil, so we haven't had much contact. I didn't expect that Ode would still be thinking of me, it's really 'true feelings revealed in adversity'."

  "It's not just bad, it's downright devilish; the old witch doesn't even have a tenth of his terror."

  "Ah! You're even more terrifying than an old witch. You're really pitiful." Ode's mouth was left agape in surprise.

  "Aude, what great magic have you learned!"

  "I've learned a few water-based healing techniques and water-based attack magic. My secondary wind magic is actually quite good, my current Gust technique is the best in our class." Haha.

  Looking at Audie's complacent appearance, I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and asked tentatively: "Is it because you want to grab the food of your classmates' girls?"

  Audrey's laughter stopped abruptly, and she asked in surprise: "How did you know?"

  Hahaha

  We both laughed.

  "Chang Gong, you're taking a few days off at home?"

  "About 4 or 5 days!"

  "Then I'll come to find you every day. When your injury heals, we two brothers will also have a try."

  "Alright, you little brat thinks I don't have any attacking magic, huh? Just wait and see." I'm not even using my full strength yet, it's impossible for him to be stronger than me in terms of magical power. When the time comes, I'll exhaust him to death. Heh heh.

  After all, they're just kids, and their competitive spirit is very strong!

  Before long, two days passed and my injuries had healed. Ode came to see me every day and said that today we would have a martial arts competition. I was also eager to try and see what level his skills had reached.

  "Boss, I'm here, come out quickly."

  "Here comes here comes, so eager to send yourself to death, haha!"

  "Hmph, who will win is still uncertain, you can't even use attack magic, what makes you think you can beat me?"

  "Give it a try!"

  Audrey took a stance, first casting Wind on herself, followed by Water Shield, and then began to chant her attack spell.

  I calmly watched him, not at all anxious, because I knew that with his level it was impossible to launch a full-range attack spell, and my instant transfer would definitely be able to dodge.

  As expected, a water bullet flew towards me. I instantly teleported 1 meter to the left, and the water bullet brushed past my side. Odie rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things. Next, all sorts of low-level water magic came attacking me one after another. How could such magic possibly hit me?

  "Boss, what kind of magic is this? It's much faster than my Gale Technique."

  "Of course, this is instant transportation in space magic."

  "Hey big brother, you're being dishonest! What kind of competition is this? You keep hiding and dodging!"

  "Alright, I won't hide anymore, come on." He said as he cast a Light Shield on himself.

  As soon as I stopped hiding, Ode immediately launched a water bullet at me. With a sly smile, I held up my Prism Shield in the direction of Ode, and the water bullet that hit it was instantly bounced back, not wasting any energy, and returned to Ode. Ode's entire body was soaked through, and he was even knocked off his feet by the impact of the water bullet.

  "No more, no more! What's all this? I give up!" Oder got up from the ground.

  "Alright, as long as it's not an omnidirectional spell, it won't have any effect on me. My defense and evasion skills are already at the intermediate magician level." Xixi

  "No wonder you're the boss, I didn't expect that without attack magic, Boss, you're still so formidable. I give up. From now on, I'll follow you, Xixi."

  Seeing Ode's admiring eyes, I felt a sense of pride and satisfaction.

  "Let's go to school together tomorrow, I'll take you to a place that's great for practicing dodging, although it won't be as intense as my instant teleportation, but it will greatly improve your Gale Technique."

  "Alright, thank you boss."

  Heh heh, thank you? Tomorrow I'll let you little brat also taste the power of the hemp sack array.
