My Free Will System: Transmigrating Into My Favorite Immersion Game

Carius looked upon the entire city below, "Innocent? What a joke, I'll make sure everyone pays the price for their actions and inactions.

Damn holding the queen hostage, I'll just kill the king and become the next king, and then no one will be able to oppose me," He said, his voice filled with burning rage

As Carius set his sights on the arena below, he thought of killing the king by enlarging the dormant in his lungs, but his control over the crystal was out of range.

With a fierce gaze, he began to steadily descend toward the arena, riding his crystal platform like a flying saucer.

Boom!

A bright searing ball of fire hit him, it collided with his crystal platform, sending out a shockwave of heat and force. He let out a guttural roar as he spiraled through the air, he instinctively conjured another platform to stop his fall.

Carius looked around to see where the attack came from,

"Up here," Elias's voice cut his search short

And he looked up and saw Elias hovering in the sky, his white hair flowing freely against the high-altitude winds around his head like a wild halo.

'If not for the Levitation spell I bought from the store, I could've died!'

"I may have fought against those guys earlier and used a significant amount of mana but if you think that is enough to deplete my mana, let alone push me to the point of mana exhaustion, then you are gravely mistaken Carius," Elias said, looking down of the Flare man

Carius' rugged face was now a mask of surprise mixed with fear, his eyes were wide and unblinking as he tried to comprehend how Elias was alive, let alone flying.

Elias continued, "You have tried to kill me Carius, don't hold it against me if I do the same," He said, his voice cold and his tone flat

Upon hearing Elias' declaration, Carius' expression changed. His body began to get surrounded by a shimmering red aura of energy

The air between them crackled with anticipation. Without warning, Elias extended his hand, and a searing bolt of fire shot toward Carius. Elias was deeply vexed by the fact that Carius tried to kill him, tried to take away his second chance at life. Even if Carius didn't know that, it still pissed him off

Carius responded instinctively, raising his hand to summon a barrier of crystal. The flame ball collided with the barrier, exploding into a shower of red sparks.

Undeterred, Elias conjured a gust of wind that sent the broken crystal shards swirling around Carius, seeking to find a weakness in his defenses.

Carius countered by completely covering himself in a crystal dome, upon impact with the barrier, the shards helplessly fell.

From within the safety of his barrier, Carius thought to himself:

'How the hell is he able to cast spells like that, so quickly and without any incantations or preparations?

Is he perhaps a Flare? And innate mage? No, that's impossible, Flares cannot have two innate abilities, it's unheard of!!'

A bead of sweat trickled down his face, "Elias Ashdown, just what the hell are you?"

Experience more on m|vl-em,py-r

In the next second, Elias' hand burst through his crystal dome, and Carius took a step back. Elias forced his second hand through and broke open the crystal like he was cracking open a giant egg.

With a swift motion, Carius summoned a series of crystal platforms in the air. He leaped from one to another with incredible speed, increasing the distance between them.

Elias immediately responded by using [Bladewalk] to zoom across the platforms, chasing Carius, but Carius was not lost yet.

He created a massive crystal lance and hurled it at Elias. The lance pierced through the air, aiming straight for Elias' head.

Elias barely had time to react, using a small burst of wind to propel himself sideways. The lance missed him by inches, continuing its trajectory until it exploded in a burst of light against the backdrop.

"Fireball!"

With a sweep of his arm, Elias retaliated by sending numerous balls of flame at Carius. Carius's eyes narrowed. He thrust his hand downward, creating a massive crystal shield beneath his feet that absorbed the brunt of the fiery onslaught. The heat was intense, but the crystal held firm.

"Why are you standing in my way Elias Ashdown, you have so much power, so much strength, and yet you choose to fight me, the wrong person!

Your fangs should be bared at that worthless slob of a king. I'll kill him, I'll you, I'll kill everyone! For every Flare he has put in collars, I'll stab a hole in his heart!" He roared in anger

"The only reason you're on the receiving end of my spells is because you chose to be. I showed you the other ways we could achieve what you seek, but you chose this path.

I have asked you this before, and I'll ask you again.

Is it freedom that you want or is it revenge?" Elias asked

As the flames dissipated, Carius saw his opportunity. He focused his energy and Elias found himself surrounded by tiny crystal particles.

"Shit," He muttered

By the force of Carius' will, the numerous crystals took the shape of needles, and they all pointed at Elias.

"Ward of null!!" Elias screamed

Countless numbers of crystal needles flew towards him at incredible speeds. Speed that any normal human would have gotten hit by twenty times over and still not be able to perceive it. But still, all of the needles dissipated as they collided with Elias' ward.

"You asked what I wanted. Freedom or revenge?

What I want is to make them pay tenfold, especially the king and those who sat in power and watched whilst we were reduced to dogs.

What I want is for them to die, I am going to kill them all!" He roared

His needle attack on Elias was nothing but a distraction, something to keep Elias occupied while he pulled off his ultimate move.

The most dangerous thing about Flares according to King Alaric was their spontaneity, but he couldn't have been more wrong. It wasn't their spontaneity nor their innate ability to weave spells at a moment's notice.

It was their emotions, the source behind the strength of their power.

Carius focused his energy, screaming with all his might and being. He conjured massive pieces of crystals, each piece stuck to the last, fusing, assembling into a bigger construct. When the last piece locked into place, Elias' eyes widened and a grin spread across Carius' tired face.

The crystal construct was in the shape of a massive dragon, the majestic beast of the heavens spread its wings to full length, opened its mouth, and shook the heavens with a thunderous roar.
