All-around teacher at the magic academy

Taking advantage of this brief window of time, Leon swiftly cast a high-level dark magic spell, instantly swapping positions with his shadow and cleverly breaking free from the chains of light.

His figure vanished from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already a few steps away, having successfully escaped Galli's attack range.

However, before Leon could catch his breath, he sensed a new threat. He looked up at the sky and saw countless tiny particles of light beginning to fall from the clouds. These particles, like gentle spring rain, carried an undeniable and swift force, rapidly piercing through the clouds and heading straight for Leon.

Leon reacted immediately, and powerful lightning elemental energy began to surge around him. This lightning elemental energy swirled around his body, forming a protective barrier.

Each bolt of lightning was skillfully controlled by Leon to be extremely small, like tiny worms, which swam through the air as if they had come to life.

Under Leon's command, these tiny bolts of lightning began to actively meet the falling light particles, precisely intercepting them.

The aerial battle intensified, each contact between light particles and lightning triggering deafening explosions and blinding flashes of light. This magical duel unfolded like dazzling fireworks in the sky, each collision a symphony of power and beauty.

This spectacular magical duel lasted a full two minutes. With his superb magical control and keen battlefield awareness, Leon successfully intercepted every single particle of light, preventing any from hitting him. His defenses were like an unbreakable barrier, deflecting all of Gali's attacks.

Galli's eyes revealed increasing surprise and confusion. His brows furrowed as he pondered to himself: Where did this person come from, to be able to so calmly withstand his continuous attacks? His appearance undoubtedly brought Galli an unprecedented challenge.

After a series of magical defenses, Leon finally had a chance to catch his breath. Although he was anxious, he knew that his mission was not yet complete.

He could have taken this opportunity to quickly withdraw from the battlefield, but considering that Harvey might not have gone far, he had to hold out for a while longer to ensure Harvey's safety.

Leon knew he couldn't reveal his full strength to this powerful opponent, or his true identity might be exposed.

However, things always take unexpected turns. Leon noticed that the number of knights around him was gradually increasing, and they seemed to be rapidly gathering at his location.

Seeing this, Galli's lips curled into a satisfied smile. He seemed to have anticipated what was to come, and the encirclement of Leon was gradually tightening.

Leon took a deep breath; he knew he couldn't delay any longer. Once the knights formed a complete encirclement, his escape would become much more difficult, and he might even lose his chance to escape altogether. He couldn't allow himself to be captured here; it would be a complete loss.

Leon quickly analyzed the surrounding situation, searching for the best escape route. A resolute glint flashed in his eyes as he prepared to use his last resort to find a gap in the escape route before the knights could surround them.

Leon knew there was no time to hesitate. He set aside all his concerns and devoted himself entirely to preparing the magic. Magic surged in his palm, and the power of the three elements began to converge under his precise control.

Fire elemental energy first leaped in his palm; it was the core of this magic, radiating intense heat, ready to ignite everything. The power of the fire elemental continued to grow, like a sun about to explode, filled with destructive heat, capable of unleashing an uncontrollable conflagration once released.

Next, the wind element joined in, intertwining with the fire element to provide even greater power to the flames. The presence of the wind made the flames even wilder, pushing the tongues of fire in all directions to form an impenetrable barrier of fire. This wall of fire not only blocked the enemy's vision but also effectively prevented them from approaching.

Finally, the earth elemental sand grains were swept into the elemental storm by the fire and wind. These grains, transformed by magic, became like sharp blades, tumbling within the wall of fire and forming a chaotic and dangerous physical structure.

These sand grains not only inflict physical damage on a wide range of enemies, but also absorb the heat of the flames, extending the duration of the magic and making it more powerful.

The magic in Leon's hand gradually took shape under his will. With a sudden flick of his arm, the magic, which condensed the three elements of fire, wind, and earth, shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

The magic spread rapidly through the air, like the gaping maw of a giant beast, instantly engulfing a large area in front. The knights who had just arrived had no time to react before being enveloped by this fierce magical storm.

Seeing the critical situation, Gali's eyes widened, and he immediately began to rapidly gather a barrier of light element to protect himself and the knights around him. At the same time, he gathered intense light element energy in his right hand and slashed fiercely at the figure in the center of the storm.

A powerful firestorm, like a raging dragon, whipped up the surrounding sand and gravel, forming a sand wall that blotted out the sky. This force swept across the entire battlefield, obscuring visibility, causing the temperature to rise sharply, and the scorching heat corroded everyone's skin, making them feel suffocated and in pain.

As the firestorm slowly dissipated, Gali finally loosened his clenched fists and released his light elemental magic barrier. His gaze pierced through the gradually clearing air, only to find that the figure that had been standing in front of him had vanished without a trace.

As the smoke and dust settled on the battlefield, only the astonished faces of Gali and the Knights and their men remained, along with a scene of utter devastation.

A heavily armored knight swiftly made his way through the dust and approached Gali, his face filled with concern: "Vice Commander, are you alright? Is there anything we can do for you?"

Galli waved his hand gently, his eyes still searching the surroundings for Leon's whereabouts: "It's alright, the opponent's magic is mainly for creating chaos and escaping, it's not very aggressive."

His tone was calm, but inwardly he was slightly surprised by Leon's strength and that mysterious magic.

"Immediately gather all personnel and seal off all entrances and exits to the entire city of Barton."

Galli gave the order, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority: "That man is definitely still in Barton; he won't leave this place easily."

"Yes, Vice Commander!" The knight responded and immediately turned to carry out the order. The other knights also sprang into action, setting up a blockade and searching for suspicious individuals.

Galli stood there, his thoughts drifting back to the battle. He recalled the magic Leon had used, the technique that perfectly blended multiple elements—something he had never seen before.

The complexity and power of this magic made Gali frown. He asked himself: Who exactly was that person? Where did his magic come from?

Such an opponent, if we don't uncover his true purpose, will become a major threat to the Knights.
