Wizardry System

(For the patrons, I did edit this chapter slightly so you might want to read it!)

'They can fuse and amplify their Magical Power by 10?!' Chris thought. 'There's 10 of them so that means that there will be 3 groups and each groups will have least a million Magical Power. With their spells being three times more powerful, the weakest group will only be a little bit weaker than Mother. I'm sure that Father and Uncle Allen can handle them for a while, but I'm not sure if Mother can hang on for a long period of time,'

Chris saw that when the Servants cast spells that emitted light beams, the three light beam would fuse and get thicker.

'If the Servants were able to make themselves more powerful, why didn't they use it when Uncle Allen fought them. If Uncle Allen knew about this ability, he would've told Father. It makes no sense,' Chris thought.

After around a couple minutes of battle, one of the Servants fighting against Bradley faced the lone Servant. He pointed towards Chris and the rest. The lone hooded figure nodded and started to make his way to Chris and the others.

"Oh no you don't," Bradley said as he pointed his wand to the lone Servant.

However, the Servant group that was fighting Bradley shot a fused spell.

"Damn it!" Bradley shouted as he turned his wand back and blocked the spell.

Meanwhile, the lone Servant made his way to Chris and the others. The Granger and Alder couples were frightened and Mrs. Alder even let out a tiny scream.

Chris looked at his stats.

Servant of the Cult

Age: 25

Magical Power: 12,000

'This one has no blessing?' Chris thought. 'Right now, from all the training I did, I have around 7,500 Magical Power. I'm going to hedge my bets on the fact that the only thing he has over me is Magical Power,'

"Hermione! Kristine!" Chris shouted. "Try to help me from the back by shooting out spells when he's caught off guard. I'll try my best to protect everyone here,"

"Alright," Kristine and Hermione said at the same time.

Chris stared at the Servant ready to strike at any moment.

"Protego!" Chris chanted.

The Servant then swung his wand downwards and a mark resembling a cut appeared in front of Chris for a second.

'Non-verbal magic. This person is strong,' Chris thought.

"Privatio Sensoria," Chris chanted.

The Servant looked a bit shaken up, but he still held onto his wand. However, during this time, Chris quickly cast Fulgur Pila revealing a ball of lightning. Chris put his utmost concentration in making it as small as he can. In a second, the ball was the size of half his index finger and about 2 fingers thick.

He quickly threw the tiny ball at the Servant and it was able to hit the Servant's ċhėst who bȧrėly got his senses back. However, the ball wasn't able to pierce through him and merely made a hole in his clothing revealing a small bloody circle.

From the back, Hermione threw out Knockback Jinxes while Kristine used various spells such as the Leg-Locking Curse and Tripping Jinx. However, the Servant had already cast a Shield Charm blocking their spells.

'I can't use the Sensory Deprivation Hex for the next 5 minutes. Even if I can, the Sensory Deprivation Hex won't work as effectively anymore. He'll be prepared next time I use it. This will be tough,' Chris thought.

Chris sent out the Full Body-Binding Curse which was blocked by the Servant. The Servant then immediately cast a spell which was bȧrėly blocked by Chris.

Chris and the Servant continued their duel with Hermione and Kristine casting spells in the back.

Chris sent out various spells such as the Full Body-Bind Curse, the Reductor Curse, and the Lightning Ball Spell. On the other hand, the Servant continued to send the same spell with the cutting-like wand movement.

(Author's note: Lightning Ball Spell is Fulgur Pila. I changed it because using Fulgur Pila while saying Reductor Curse or something similar seems off.)

'It's like he's wielding a sword. Come on, now's the time for the people outside to finish up,' Chris thought.

Chris continued to fight and he was getting more and more tired by the second.

'Being in a fight that's life-threatening is making this exponentially more tiring than any duels in the Dueling Club. I'm starting to lose concentration. My mouth is becoming dry from the chanting. It's getting more difficult,' Chris thought as he continued to block and cast spells. He was still hoping that Xander and his father's 3 guards would come soon.

However, even after 2 more minutes passed, no one came. Chris was starting to get light-headed.

'Why aren't the people outside done with their battle yet?!' Chris thought. His offense started to decrease and he was focusing more on his defense. 'As long as I have the Shield Charm up, I'll be able to defend everyone behind me,'

Soon Chris bȧrėly used offensive spells towards the Servant and Hermione and Kristine's spells were now the main source of damage, but even that was starting to decrease.

As he was defending, Chris' Shield Charm suddenly broke.

'Fuck!' Chris thought as he quickly tried to think of a solution. However, he was too late as the Servant cast the cutting spell. Without any protection, there was now a huge gash on Chris' upper body spraying blood all over the room.

"Chris!" Bradley and Lorraine shouted at the same time as they saw the scene. Both desperately wanted to go back, but with the Servant groups fighting them, it was impossible to turn their back on them without getting seriously hurt.

Chris felt a burning sensation on his ċhėst.

'It feels like someone just cut me with one of those 1000 degree knives,' Chris thought.

Hermione and Kristine both tried to go to Chris, but he stopped them.

"Stand back," Chris said weakly. "If you two come up, it'll just be meaningless sacrifices. I still have a bit of fight left in me,"

The Servant just stood there as if waiting for Chris to stand back up.

'Luckily, this guy is just enjoying the fact that I'm hurt and isn't attacking me. He's not even seeing me as a threat right now. I can use his arrogance to help myself a bit,' Chris thought.

'Please, let me break his shield,' Chris thought. However, the Servant was able to block the Curse. The Servant then cast the cutting spell once more and it hit Chris creating another gash on his upper body. Chris felt his consciousness leave his body from the pain.

'No! If I faint right now, even if Xander and the 3 guards come in, at least one person behind me will die,' Chris thought. He stopped himself from fainting, but he was only bȧrėly able to stand up.
