Chapter 233 Zack's Might

-----

Zack wasn't as magically powerful as the girls, his magic capacity was said to be mediocre at best, and he wasn't going to improve in a single week either, he had been practicing both conventional magic, alongside physique exercise and also his usual weapon training this entire time, and below Ninhursag and Nepheline's regime, he had been slowly getting stronger, in a few years, it would finally begin to show off as he grew more mature, the two women constantly said that when he grew up he would become a muscular man, so the young boy was hoping for that day to come sooner… Mostly, because he wanted to impress the two girls he was always sticking with. If he wasn't good at magic like them, he would become the best at physical strength and muscles!

Of course, now that they were moving away from the jungle, the situation was becoming dire as an army of green skins were assaulting them from all sides, Zack was a young boy at the end of the day, and by seeing all these green skins, he felt very intimidated, thinking that if it wasn't for Faylen, Sylphy's mother, and the help of everybody else, it would be impossible for them to cross the jungle, and they all would die miserably one way or the other against the hands of the army of barbaric green-skinned humanoid monsters.

He saw how Faylen enhanced everybody with her buffs, and even allowed the children to fight as well! Sylphy and Aquarina were amazing with these enhancements, they became even better at it, but what about Zack? Would he be able to gain enough magic power for his feeble magic to make a difference? He had been mostly using his axe to fight, so he cannot really fight too far away from a target, and this distance is way too big for him to be able to attack the monsters from the distance using his axe alone…

However, with this magic power… perhaps there was a way for him to be capable of helping the rest! Zack quickly readied his Axe, as he infused it with his little amount of mana, which became several dozens of times bigger thanks to Faylen's temporary buffs, and the summoned his Wind Spirit which emerged in the form of a small cloud behind him!

"Fooo!"

"Let's do it! I am not going to end up losing to those two girls…!"

Zack infused the power of wind and thunder into his trusty axe, as the axe itself began to exude an enormous quantity of magic which he had infused into it, strong winds and lightning started to emerge from within, and in a mere second, he slashed through the empty air, and an enormous and thunderous storm of winds and lightning came out, as if he had summoned a natural disaster!

TRUUUUUMMM!!!

The enormous storm that came out of Zack's axe devoured a large chunk of the green skin army with slicing winds and burning lightning storms, engulfing everything within its destructive embrace, Zack's eyes widened in surprise as he couldn't believe the enormous catastrophic storm he had brought down…

And then, his spirit, named Sylph, the same name as Sylphy, quickly decided to fight by herself, as she flew down into the battlefield and by using the mana of Zack and the buffs from Faylen, she began to grow bigger and bigger, going from a white cloud into an angry black cloud unleashing deadly lightning strikes everywhere1

CRAAASH!

The lightning clashed over the Orcs and Trolls, the biggest green skins that were left after most of the goblins were all massacred easily due to their smaller statue and weaker physique, aside from the rare Goblin Champions.

The Orcs and Trolls tried to fight against the giant cloud, but they were pointlessly fighting against something they couldn't even damage, their attacks and weapons passed through her body with ease, and Sylph quickly began to unleash more thunder and slicing winds, shredding the Orcs and Trolls apart before they could even fight again. They started to die in masse, all while Zack continued unleashing destructive slashes of his axe! The storming winds and lightning continued their massacre, as Zack couldn't help but slowly grow more addicted to this feeling… Although it was only temporary until the buffs lasted, he was enjoying it rather nicely.

And something all the three children noticed was also happening, something that Faylen was doing an experiment for… apparently, the buffs she's able to give to them can temporarily awaken their powers and magic to even greater extents, this way, they're able to unleash powers and abilities they never thought they had before, but this also helped them see what they could become in the future, and what they might be able to accomplish.

Faylen was watching over all three of the children, interested about their amazing growth and the possibilities of them growing even stronger over this time, they were awakening amazing capabilities from within already, and they would most likely continue to awaken more powers and magic as they grew stronger over time. This might even be treated as something of a sneak peek of what they could achieve in the future!

"Interesting, Zack has the potential to become something akin to a Hero as well… Well, it is not as if only Heroes can achieve this level of power, my father and my siblings… They are all monsters." Thought Faylen. "But Zack is someone like my husband, he'll grow more magic power as he grows older and stronger, his element affinity is already incredibly strong, and unlike Allan early on, Zack got a spirit to help him develop his magic. Allan got a spirit very later compared to Zack, so this boy here got some great advantages… I wonder if the gods will end up choosing him… It is quite likely, seeing how he's so close with two chosen heroes already." Faylen began to consider many things that would happen in the future, all while beginning to believe that the future ahead would be filled with interesting things to investigate.
