Anti-Magic? Shirone finally realized what was happening. He realized how Amy, who securely held her place as the first in Class 4, was caught by these rascals.

It was truly a tremendous shock and vibration. The resonance wave caused by the five people shook his mind.

Shirone raised his head. Colors smeared and shuffled around as if the world had been dunked underwater. But he couldn�t give up here. Holding onto his distant consciousness, Shirone slowly, but surely walked.

�Amy, I�m gonna save you now.�

�I told you to stop! You�ll never be able to cast magic for the rest of your life! You�ll become a cripple!�

�Because of me� This happened.�.�

�Get rid of your Spirit Zone! Quickly!�

She knew Shirone was in a state where he couldn�t hear, but all she could do was shout. With every step he took, she felt her tears start to well up more and more.�

Shirone clenched his teeth hard and kept up his Spirit Zone.

�No! I have to hang on! I need more frames!�

Responding to his strong will, his Spirit Zone gradually began to change into the Defensive Form of the Four Way Formation. This time, it was the Black Magician�s turn to be dismayed. Casting Anti-Magic was not an easy feat, but maintaining it against a strong force was even harder. They felt as if they were being crushed by a boulder.

�Wh-What?! What�s going on?! �

Shirone extended his Spirit Zone to the max. It was shaking precariously like dew on a leaf, but he continued to press on.

�I have to push even harder! So stable that it can�t collapse! So hard that it can�t be destroyed!�

Finally, as the frames started to connect, Shirone�s Spirit Zone regained stability. Then, like a domino game, one after the other, members of the Black Magician wailed in pain.

�Keuk! What�s happening?! My head�s pounding!�

At that moment Shirone�s eyes lit up. As the Four Way Formation�s Defense Form was completed to perfection, the huge sphere was tightened into a cube. The pain caused by the Anti-Magic disappeared, while a feeling of sturdiness flooded in. Shirone felt like he could crush even diamond.

�ARRGHHHHH!�

The five who cast the Anti-Magic collapsed, screaming. They felt as if they were being crushed by something. They couldn�t even lift a finger and were bleeding from the nose.

This was why the academy banned the use of Anti-Magic. If one didn�t cultivate the mind enough, Anti-Magic was a poison that destroyed the mind.

Amy was shocked to see the tossing and turning Black Magicians. Five Anti-Magic casters were crushed by one brand-new class-7 student�

Shirone felt as if a small lizard was under the soles of his feet. He felt a wiggling sensation in his mind, but that was all. And as time passed, even such resistance faded. They released the Anti-Magic right as their minds were about to collapse.

Amy burned the air chain with fire magic and landed on the floor. Through her own Spirit Zone, Amy could feel the shape Shirone�s Spirit Zone was in. It was extremely cold, hard, and heavy.�

�No way. How is this possible��

Shirone still had fierce eyes. When he took a step forward, Jake stepped back unknowingly. It was the result of his instinct that didn�t want to bump into Shirone�s Spirit Zone.

However, the 15-meter-diameter Spirit Zone could not be avoided by taking a step back. Eventually, their two Spirit Zones overlapped, and Jake asked with a stricken look.

�You�Who the hell are you?�

It was something beyond belief� But a Spirit Zone�s synesthesia didn�t lie. A huge cube comprised of 88 sides was surrounding Shirone.

Black Magician.
