Chapter 8 - Bring More Spirit-Stones!

"Only two?! I'm not a poor person like you. At least bet three. Otherwise, don't waste my time," Henry dismissed lazily.

"Brother Lee, this fellow is trying to get away from the fight! Don't hesitate… I have one more spirit stone with me. Let's bet three!" Little Dong proposed in a hurry, as he thought he would also get one spirit stone after his brother defeated Henry like a piece of cake.

The crowd exploded.

"This is really happening… ha ha ha ha ha ha… finally, a fight worth watching."

"Don't be happy… it is going to end in one move."

"Yes, Lee Dong will make Henry a cripple again."

Everyone was eagerly waiting for Lee Dong's reply.

"Fine!!! Let's bet three spirit stones… in the fight, I will break your teeth for all the disrespect you have shown to my family," Lee Dong declared with an arrogant and proud smile.

And on the other hand, Henry was laughing inside. He finally got a way to get more spirit stones.

"Good… let's begin."

---

All the young wizards formed a huge circle around them. Henry still stood on the stone platform while Lee Dong moved some distance away and began gathering his aura.

Some people were already shouting Lee Dong's name loudly in encouragement.

Lee Dong pointed his long staff towards Henry.

"Prepare yourself!"

Henry simply held his broken sword and played with it casually.

After gathering enough aura, Lee Dong slammed his staff on the ground.

"Great Ventus Fractrum!"(Windbreak Spell)

A violent blast of air shot forward towards Henry at great speed.

Loud cries echoed as everyone shouted in excitement.

"Silver Sword, Spell!"

Clangggg!!!

The wind spell broke apart instantly.

"What?!"

"He blocked it!"

Lee Dong opened his eyes wide in shock. He was so confident that this one spell could easily deal with Henry.

After seeing the confident smile of Henry, Lee Dong felt even more frustrated.

Without wasting another second, he raised his staff high into the air and closed his eyes.

"Ignis Chakra Rota!"(Rotating Fire Wheel Spell)

Instantly, spinning flames erupted and continued rushing towards Henry with increasing intensity.

"Oh God! Such a powerful fire spell."

"Yeah… Henry is going to pay for his sins."

Henry's sword moved in the next second.

"Silver Sword Shining Flash…"

Shighghgg!!!

The sword light flashed and the fire wheel changed its direction and went directly into the Silver Pond.

More murmurs erupted.

"H-how did he do it?!"

"That broken sword seems powerful!"

"Maybe Lee Dong is not using all his power!"

The crowd began doubting Lee Dong as Henry was easily dealing with him.

Lee Dong's face twisted in fury.

"You trash… face my spells directly… try this then!!!"

"Vayu Gamana Maha Asthra!"(Changing Wind Spear)

A long silver spear of condensed wind formed above him, sharp enough to pierce anyone in its path.

The crowd backed away in fear.

"God… that can kill a horse!!!"

"Henry is dead for sure!"

"What the hell?! That's the Dong family's legacy spell? Seems like Lee Dong just learned it!"

Everyone watched nervously as the spear approached Henry like a death bringer.

"Silver Sword Spell – 3rd Form: Breaking the Sea!"

Just as Henry finished casting the spell, a shiny white light appeared before him like a divine sword.

Many people struggled to see the spell as the blinding light slowly swallowed the wind spear of Lee Dong.

Just inches before hitting Henry, the spear stopped and changed its direction.

Lee Dong's face went pale as he witnessed his own silver spear coming toward him. Realising the danger, he immediately began casting another powerful spell to block it. But it was too late.

'''Boom'''

The spear struck his chest in a flash and sent him flying.

"Ahhh..." Lee Dong cry was heard all over the silver lake.

"Bang!" His body stopped after hitting the big silver tree.

After crashing against a tree, Lee Dong began coughing up blood.

"Brother…!!!" Little Dong cried out in fear and rushed to help him.

All the young men watched in horror as Henry won the fight easily against a Fifth-Class Magus.

"What are y'all staring at? Help my brother," Little Dong barked at the Dong family members.

Immediately, more Dong family members surrounded Lee Dong and began carrying him away for urgent medical care.

"Uofff…" Henry gave a little whistle, which stopped all the Dong family members.

Understanding Henry's intention, Little Dong immediately came running and handed over three spirit stones.

"Next time, if you want to fight, bring more spirit stones. Don't worry, I'm not that strong. I'm just a First-Class Magus," Henry said encouragingly.

But Little Dong gave a cold look and ran away towards his brother.

Henry finally smiled in satisfaction as he played with the three spirit stones in his hand.

"Seems like this is not a bad idea to earn spirit stones. But I can only use this Silver Sword Spell in this mortal world. My divine spells have no use in this place. I must join the Academy soon to learn more powerful spells."

Some of the Clark family members came to congratulate Henry. He just nodded his head and slowly walked away from the Silver Pond.

"Brothers, with the support of Henry, we can occupy better places around the Silver Pond," one of the Clark family members shouted.

"Yes, yes… now that Lee Dong was defeated, Henry Clark is the strongest young man in Silver Leaf City. We must use this opportunity."

"Yes, let's go… this is the time for us to occupy all the best places around the Silver Lake."

All the Clark family young men decided to use the name of Henry Clark to bully around the Silver Pond.

The news began spreading as the other young people left to inform their families about the incident and the defeat of Lee Dong.

Meanwhile, Henry was rushing towards his home to show his wife the new three spirit stones. He really wanted to see the smile on her face.

"Stop… please stop… this is not right," Luna begged with tears.

"TUNG… ting… ting…"

All the vessels and cooking utensils began flying out of Henry's home. Many servants were throwing out all the stuff.

Philip Clark watched with a cold grin as the servants tossed out all the things from Henry Clark home.
