Zerø : The Eight Supremes

Class 9

"Start!" Von screamed on the top of his lungs.

By the time he shouted, the three boys released their seals.

The white-haired boy released a white ring, with two blades, a red band and a one-eighth inch vertical line on the right side. His seal was on his left wrist, like an armband.

The black-haired boy released his seal on his left, it is black in color, with a silver band, three blades, a one-sixteenth inch vertical line on the left side. His seal is on the right, and on the wrist like the other one.

The blue-haired boy released a pure blue seal on his right hand, with four blades and a one inch diagonal to the right line on the middle. His left hand also released a pure cyan seal with four blades, a one inch diagonal to the right in the middle and slightly inclined forward. It was their first time seeing an inclined seal.

But..

Yeah, our main character would remain unfazed. Why? Because he is a freak!

His eyes were still fine, not moving an inch.

The black-haired boy produced a black orb, and it vanished within a second. The white-haired boy produced three white fireballs and fired it off in an instant. They stood side by side while delivering a barrage to Vin.

Vin saw the difficulty in moving. The black orbs would fire on his blindspots while the light fireballs were in front of him.

But..

Yah, let's add some spice!

He was still pondering over when a black orb hit his back. With a second of buffer, he was hit by a light fireball, but he coiled himself and was sent flying leftwards.

His right arm still lit by the fire and his back mana was being sucked outwards on the place where he was hit by the orb.

Then suddenly, his instincts told him that he was in danger, but was too late.

He rammed himself on an ice wall. He rebounded and when he was falling, water was streaming towards his chest.

"Die, fool!" The blue-haired man said, but what gave him goosebumps was--

Seven figures could be seen running towards the middle of the plaza.

But to their surprise, an ice wall stood in front of Vin.

       --Vin's smile wasn't wiped off.

A fireball flew towards the ice wall and the wall exploded. Mists of ice could be seen. The trio was still smirking, laughing at the "miserable bubble man". Von ran towards the mist but a voice halted his steps.

"A pure ice seal, huh? Well, it doesn't affect me that much."

The three who was smirking now stunned, but the blue-haired man shoot another water stream. The mist went off, but Vin was not there.

The mist grew and covered their visions.

The other two jumped backwards, and stood beside the blue-haired man.

"What a waste. Your skills are still raw." Vin's voice rang out again, but it was a bit louder than before.

The three released their skills again and again, hoping that they can hit Vin once, but all of this was only for naught. It appears that Vin wasn't there at all.

"Mana sucking space orb? I see. So this seal will let you steal mana from your opponent, but too bad, you can't steal my mana from me, or you won't because if you do.." Vin's voice stopped, and as if on cue, the black-haired man fell of the ground, straight. Like a post that was chopped down.
