Physics The Greatest Magic

She thrust her spear straight at John's heart, at a speed faster than he'd be able to react to, but ended up hitting air 

John Shadow Stepped behind her, before she could even complete the turn, he grabbed on to her head and moved to slam her on to the ground 

But the his surprise, she didn't budge, and instead, thrust that back of her spear at his head 

John avoided this by tilting his body and head back and while in that motion, he sent a kick aimed straight at her chin. 

However, she avoiding this, by also tilting her head back before grabbing on to his leg with her other arm 

But the moment she did, she lost her grip over it as John shadow stepped a reliable distance away. 

As she stepped in to chase him, she failed to notice the two orbs of pure electricity which was left behind by him 

Right when the orbs were about to hit her however, she swung her spear and formed two wind blades which cut the orbs in half 

Seeing this, a grin appeared on his face as he muttered 

"Wrath of the thunder dragon." 

*Boom* 

Suddenly, A Lightning strike landed right on the area where she was standing. 

Clouds could be seen in the sky above the glass dome, surprisingly enough the glass dome didn't break. 

Despite all of that, she looked unaffected, no burn marks or nothing. She had probably formed a shield right before it hit, but the light from the lightning blocked John's view. 

John didn't mind at all, he had already expected this result, he only cast that move because he wanted to test something. 

She watched of the eyes of the boy behind her, began to glow a bright yellow colour despite being covered in darkness, once again, the air around him had changed. As his hair rose up with dark sparks going off around it, he suddenly vanished. 

John shadow stepped behind her and in that moment, two wind spears were formed, not any regular spear, they seemed upgraded, stronger than before. 

"Cancel" Said John as he swung his daggers straight at her head 

The wind spears dispersed, seeing this, she quickly moved her spear to attack him, and moved faster than him even though he was in his 'Lightning Flash' Mode 

[Stop] 

It stopped, the spear stopped right in front of his face, not just the spear but the entire girl's body. 

With that moment, that single moment, John swung both of his daggers, straight at her neck. 

But he didn't cut it, he stopped short, right before it landed on her neck. Because of that, she regained control back over her body and quickly swung her spear at him, but once again, he shadow stepped away 

Without any intention to give him a break, the girl stepped in to attack once more, with every movement and attack, the wind pressure would increase. 

---------------------------------------- 

"The illusion was smart, stopping short right before it hit so that she wouldn't realise it����s real." Said John as he began to head over to his party 

[Illusion magic... I forgot the name] 

As John shadow stepped towards his party, he couldn't believe his eyes, He knew something big was coming, but he never expected something like this 

"Hey... Serena... Who's that?" Ariel asked 

"Hm...? Doesn't that... Look like John...?" Serena asked 

"Yeah, it's me, and I'm right in front of you two." Said John as he stretched out his hands 

The two girls were spooked, they nearly lost their grip over the spell. John's voice was different and sounded like the mix of two difference voices, a male and a female one. 

"It's the boss! Ariel, now!" 

Ariel nodded, and as the two girls were about to lower their hands to move the spell, they noticed that their body suddenly stopped moving 

[Stop] 

"it's me, hold on." 

A light came out of both of John's arms as he placed them on both of their heads. They could feel their vision return along with their magic power. 

"These hands... Serena, I don't think it's the boss." 

"..." 

They blinked a few times and their vision was back to normal, along with their strength. 

"So it was you... Do you know how long you kept us wai...ting...?" 

The expression of worry was now visible on Serena's face as she asked 

"John... Did you... Use possession?" 

Ariel also noticed and was staring at John for a reply 

To this, John simply smiled and gave an apology 

"Yeah, sorry." 

Serena suddenly grabbed on to his colour, with a look of annoyment and anger far greater than he could ever remember. 

"Don't screw with us! Are you insane!? Didn't we tell you not to, no matter what?" She asked as she continued to push him back and forth 

To this, John stared straight at her, with an unmoving expression as he said 

"Sylvia is dead." 

Upon hearing this, Serena stopped, she didn't know what to say 

John grabbed on to his hand and moved it off his collars before Ariel spoke up 

"Even still... Ms Sylvia... She wouldn't have wanted for you to..." 

"I'd do nothing and what? Let us die?" 

To this question, Ariel simply lowered her head, seeing this serena asked 

"Even if we survive, what will happen to your soul!?" 

To this, John replied 

"It doesn't matter, if I can kill her. Even if I have to die, I'll avenge Mast-" 

John was interrupted by a slap which suddenly hit his face. 

*Clap* 

It was from Ariel, and as he looked towards her in confusion, she suddenly forced a shout as she said 

"Sorry, but... You idiot!!" 

Her face was full of tears and her expression was a mix of anger and sadness 

John just stood there motionlessly, he saw the slap coming, but didn't avoid it, or rather, he didn't want to. 

For a moment serena glared at John before turning to help Ariel who wiped her face 

Why? What did he do wrong? Why are they mad at me and not mad at the Boss for killing Sylvia? John wondered such things as he turned around towards the boss who was still fighting his illusion 

"I get it. You don't really care about Master Sylvia, do you?" 

Upon hearing those words, Serena asked calmly 

"Is that what it looks like to you?" 

As John didn't turn, he didn't want to see the expression she was making, and so he began walking towards the boss 

"Attack when I give the signal, I've replenished some of your mana, even she won't be able to survive an attack from that thing." Said John before he suddenly vanished 

From Serena and Ariel's perspective, as He disappeared, they looked over at the boss and noticed that there was another John fighting the boss. 

"Serena... Why are there two johns?" 

"I'm not sure... But the John that we just talked to felt different..." 

"What should we do?" 

Hearing this, Serena looked over at Ariel and noticed that her eyes were a bit swollen from, but she had a different air around her, as if she was determined to do something. 

"No, let's just watch for now, it did heal us. It might have really been John..." 

Upon hearing this Ariel nodded. 

"I won't let you die...." She whispered to herself
