Chapter 151: Hiding Until Time Run Out

Kraftvoll ran as fast as he can from the enemy he faced earlier. He didn't know that his enemy did not pursue him anymore. He just ran as fast as he can without looking back. He feared that if he did look back, his enemy would catch him so he did not do that. 

When he was running, Kraftvoll decided to run back to the cave where he battled against that young lady from the sixth grade. When he arrived at its entrance, he saw that it was not closed like when he departed from this place before.

He thought to himself, "'It seems like she managed to get away from there. I guess I will just use that cave to hide for a while."

Kraftvoll entered the cave without using any seishin spell to detect possible enemies inside. He decided to just risk the situation because he couldn't afford to use more of the inner seishin essences in his reservoir.

Upon entering the cave, Kraftvoll decided to cover the entrance of the cave with some of the rubbles that also covered the cave inside.

When the entrance was completely covered, Kraftvoll used a light seishin spell to light up his way to the dark cave. He chanted, "I command thee, Illuminate thy master's path, Luminous Orb!"

A small number of white seishin essences started to gather around him when he started chanting this seishin spell. In the middle of his chant, those white seishin essences turned into light particles. In the end, Kraftvoll managed to conjure a ball made up of light particles that gave light to his path.

The Luminous Orb seishin spell that he conjured was the foundation seishin spell of all the light seishin spells. This seishin spell was the most basic seishin spell that a practitioner of the light element must first to learn so it did not cost that mush seishin essence to conjure.

With the illumination of his seishin spell, Kraftvoll followed the path inside the cave. It was the path that his enemy created after she wet away from this cave.

When Kraftvoll managed to reach the end of the path, he saw an entrance to the frozen Water Sphere seishin spell. Upon entering the entrance of the ice dome, he saw the innards of the dome of ice where his previous enemy managed to outwit him. That's when Kraftvoll thought of something upon entering this dome of ice.

He thought, 'I did not cancel my Shadow Familiar seishin spell, right? I'll dig in this side maybe the shadow familiar that I summoned back then was still in there.'

Kraftvoll used another seishin spell to melt the part of the frozen Water Sphere where his shadow familiar was covered in rubbles. He chanted, "I command thee, ye who constitute strength, blaze those in my way, Burn!"

A small number of red seishin essences started to gather around Kraftvoll when he started chanting this seishin spell. Like the Luminous Ball seishin spell that he used earlier when he entered the cave, Kraftvoll used the most basic seishin spell among the fire seishin spells.

At the end of his chant, those red seishin essences started to turn into a single sliver of fire one by one. These sliver of fires condense into a ball of fire.

At this point, Kraftvoll nearly exhausted his inner seishin essences because of his previous continuous battles.

He was doing his very best to conserve his inner seishin essences because he might endanger himself after if he exhausted it to his last inner seishin essence. At most, he can only use two seishin spells at the rank of Seishin Captain until he runs out of inner seishin essences.

When the Burn seishin spell melted the part of the ice dome where Kraftvoll's was on the other side, he saw his shadow familiar covered with rubbles. He immediately removed those rubbles above his shadow familiar.

After he was freed, the shadow familiar suddenly came to its master side. It was not damaged at all because only light seishin spells can do that to an entity of the darkness like this shadow familiar. Also, an elemental familiar like the shadow familiar that Kraftvoll had summoned could also stop existing if the seishin spell was canceled by its caster.

After he freed his shadow familiar, Kraftvoll commanded it guard him again while he tends to his wounds.

He chanted, "Ye who represents purity, cleanse thy master's nemesis, let your refreshing nature heal any wound, Water's Touch!"

Blue seishin essences started to gather around Kraftvoll when he started chanting. Amidst his chant, those blue seishin essences started to turn into vapors of water. After he finished saying his chant, Kraftvoll was able to produce water with high healing properties.

He used this seishin spell to heal the wounds that he got from his previous battles. He healed the wounds that he gained from the icicles that his enemy fired toward him from above. He also decided to heal the burns to his body that he got from the heat of the Radiance Stream seishin spell that the crown prince of the Walkiria Kingdom had fired toward him.

After he healed his external wounds, Kraftvoll entered the deep meditation stance. He wanted to replenish as many inner seishin essences as he can because he knew that the next battles will be more fierce like his previous battles.

Kraftvoll knew deep in his mind that the last part of the Battle Royale would become more dangerous so he decided to not waste any more time. He was lucky he was able to escape his terrifying enemy but he knew that he might encounter strong seniors like the one he escaped from earlier in his guts.

At this time, all of the students who participated in the Battle Royale competition had entered Mt. Verrater. After these last thirty minutes, people will know who will survive the last competition of the Verrater Academy's yearly tournament. The timer before the end started the moment the last batch entered.
