Chapter 129 - Chapter 129: Confrontation

Cloud-Piercer shot fiercely toward the vice-principal's neck. The spear tip pierced through his throat with almost no resistance.

The instant Cloud-Piercer penetrated his neck, a strange white light suddenly shone from the vice-principal's body. It repelled Cloud-Piercer away from his neck, and in less than a second, his wound had completely healed as if nothing had happened.

This was clearly the effect of a magic tool—likely one that could block a single fatal attack, similar to the necklace Roxy possessed.

Dan Feng prepared to strike again to kill the vice-principal, but the vice-principal did not choose to chant the long and slow Fire Saint-class magic again. Instead, he swiftly began chanting an Advanced Fire Magic spell.

Several blazing fireballs streaked toward Dan Feng like meteors.

However, just as the fireballs were about to hit him, Cloud-Piercer in Dan Feng's hands began to whirl. One by one, he deflected the fireballs.

The deflected fireballs flew wildly like uncontrolled cannon shots, crashing straight into the surrounding walls.

In an instant, a deafening explosion rang out. The walls were blasted apart by the fireballs, sending bricks and dust flying everywhere.

This sudden explosion immediately drew the attention of nearby students. They stopped what they were doing and looked in shock toward the source of the noise.

At the same time, the flames spread rapidly, engulfing the entire room in the blink of an eye.

Thick smoke accompanied the roaring inferno, blanketing everything inside in a sea of fire.

Naturally, this violent commotion did not escape the ears of the student council member waiting outside.

His heart tightened as an ominous premonition surged within him. He hurried forward and pushed the door open.

The moment the door opened, a blast of heat mixed with thick smoke rushed toward him. He quickly used Wind Magic to disperse the smoke and looked inside—only to be stunned speechless by the scene before him.

Dan Feng held Cloud-Piercer in his hands, the spear tip wrapped in a surging torrent of water as he charged straight toward the vice-principal, whose face was filled with terror.

"Lord Hitogami, save me!"

The vice-principal was clearly terrified out of his wits by this sudden development. He tried to dodge, but it was already too late.

With a muffled 'pfft' sound, Cloud-Piercer pierced through the vice-principal's skull like lightning—perfectly accurate.

Immediately after, the water flow exploded outward like a detonated bomb. The vice-principal's entire body burst apart under the tremendous impact force.

In this way, Dan Feng mercilessly killed the vice-principal—Hitogami's apostle.

This act undoubtedly signified that Dan Feng had now completely opposed Hitogami.

"Dan Feng! What are you doing?!" The student council member stared in horror at the bloody scene before him, his face filled with disbelief.

Dan Feng turned his head expressionlessly and gave the student council member a cold glance. Without saying a word, his figure flashed and vanished through the hole blasted open by the fireballs, disappearing from the student council member's sight.

It was clearly no longer safe to remain here. Dan Feng understood this perfectly, so he chose to flee.

Since he had killed the vice-principal, he would surely be wanted by Ranoa Magic University. He could not stay.

Before leaving, however, he used Cloud Chant Technique to extinguish the flames that were about to spread to the surroundings.

Now, he needed to find Roxy. Since he was preparing to leave, he wanted to ask whether Roxy was willing to go with him.

Thus, Dan Feng flew toward the girls' dormitory.

Such a massive explosion naturally attracted the attention of most students in the school—including Roxy.

Roxy, who had just finished bathing, opened her window in confusion. She immediately saw an explosion in a distant building and then spotted Dan Feng—who had just extinguished the flames—flying straight toward her.

Since the special students' dormitories were on the fifth floor, Dan Feng quickly found Roxy standing at her open window, looking at him.

Without hesitation, he flew straight into Roxy's room and said quickly, "Roxy, I killed the vice-principal. Do you want to stay here?"

"Huh?" Roxy was slightly surprised, but she did not hesitate at all. She turned, grabbed the scrolls on her desk, and began packing all her belongings into her storage scroll.

In no time, Roxy put on her magician's hat, clutched a scroll, and threw herself into Dan Feng's arms.

Dan Feng lifted Roxy in a princess carry, then enveloped her with Imaginary energy for protection. With a leap, he soared into the air once more.

Now that he no longer had to worry about running out of Imaginary energy, he could fly while carrying Roxy and still protect her from the wind with Imaginary energy. This allowed him to take her flying together.

In an instant, Dan Feng and Roxy's figures vanished from the Magic City of Sharia.

As for the items in Dan Feng's room—there was no need for them. They were just daily necessities; they had enough gold coins to buy replacements.

For now, it was unclear whether Ranoa Magic University would issue a wanted notice for Dan Feng. To be safe, it was better to leave first and perhaps return in a few years once the storm had died down.

Meanwhile, news of the vice-principal's death began spreading through Ranoa Magic University.

Under the account of that student council member, the term [Imbibitor Lunae] spread like wildfire across the campus. Everyone gathered below, watching the spectacle with gleeful curiosity, not minding that bigger trouble was brewing.

The current principal of Ranoa Magic University was stunned when he saw the scene. Then, from the students around him, he learned of the vice-principal's death.

He immediately prepared to issue a wanted notice for [Imbibitor Lunae], but a voice stopped him.

It was Nephelira Ranoa.

"You don't need to get involved in this matter. Do you really want to oppose one of the Seven Great Powers?" Nephelira gave the current principal a glance.

After [Dragon God] was pushed down the ranking by [Imbibitor Lunae], Nephelira had also found it somewhat unbelievable. So she had used her status as princess of the Ranoa Kingdom to dispatch people to investigate in various regions.

They discovered that there was no news of [Imbibitor Lunae] anywhere else—everyone only knew of the new powerhouse [Imbibitor Lunae]. This proved that Dan Feng was indeed the one and only [Imbibitor Lunae]—the one ranked second among the Seven Great Powers.

"Princess, are you saying the person who killed the vice-principal is that [Imbibitor Lunae] from the Seven Great Powers? But some students said it was someone named Dan Feng?" the principal asked in confusion.

"Are you questioning my words?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Afterward, Nephelira put a stop to the matter. Aside from the students of Ranoa Magic University who already knew, the incident was suppressed.

There was one more extremely important thing.

After the vice-principal's death, other students finally came forward to expose his wrongdoing.

Many people had been oppressed by this vice-principal, so when he died, a great number of students cheered and celebrated.
