The Golem Mage

Chapter 552 552: Unexpected.

The green claw wind blade hurtled towards Michael, and nearly everyone watching had already resigned themselves to the belief that he would not escape unscathed, they thought the referee might just step in at any moment soon to stop the match.

However, just as Connorʼs claw wind blade was about to tear through him, a brilliant flash of light enveloped Michael.

The light emitted such intense mana fluctuations that it generated a shockwave, sending the wind blade hurtling backwards.

The shockwave reached Connor, forcing him to swiftly cross his two hands in an X shape and dig his legs into the ground to prevent himself from being propelled by the force of his opponentʼs shockwave, which would have been embarrassing.

Connor squinted his light blue eyes, attempting to use his heightened sense of smell to locate Michael, but his keen sense of smell warned him of great danger, causing his body to tremble slightly

Connor strained to locate the source of the danger that had triggered his primal instincts.

Finally, the surrounding light subsided, allowing the crowd of spectators and Connor to see Michael once again.

However, there were noticeable changes in him, all the injuries and bruises inflicted on him by Connorʼs relentless attacks had completely vanished, not only that, but his hair was now glowing.

Normally, Michael had short, blonde hair, but after the light dissipated, his hair and eyebrows emitted a radiant, holy glow.

Alec couldnʼt help but feel as though he was witnessing a Super Saiyan awakening.

”Iʼm not the only one who saw that, right?” Arthur asked, amazed by the power Michael had just displayed.

”No, youʼre not alone, unless we all have some sort of eye problem, it seems that Michael just performed a full body healing on himself,” Alec replied, his gaze still fixed on the intense battle unfolding before them.

The War God Academy team wasnʼt the only group taking note of Michaelʼs extraordinary power, as the ability to heal is one of the rarest and most coveted powers in existence.

And to possess a healing ability of such caliber, it made Michael even more valuable than they had previously perceived.

As the other teams discussed him, the crowd also felt that the fight had returned to a balanced state, rather than the one side beating that just occurred.

”I would love to continue playing with you, but you see, my captain has advised me that if I continue at this intensity, I will deplete too much mana and wonʼt be able to defeat you, I was sent out to secure the first win, so Iʼm afraid our ʼplayʼ has come to an end,” Michael calmly stated to Connor, who stood there rigidly, staring at the unscathed Michael.

However, Michaelʼs words only seemed to enrage Connor.

The mention of ”play” made him feel underestimated, as though everything he had done was diminished to mere entertainment in front of Michael.

With a powerful kick from his hind legs, Connor lunged towards Michaelʼs neck, as he knew that the quickest way to secure victory in this match was to slice at Michaelʼs neck, forcing an immediate defeat as the referee would have no choice but to intervene.

Since they wouldnʼt want a prodigy from the Lightbringer clan to die, particularly one as talented as Michael, Connorʼs anger escalated the closer he got to him, the annoying smile still plastered on Michaelʼs lips only fuelled his rage.
