The rules of the sudden bet were: for twenty seconds, Ha Soo-Yeong could freely cast any spell she wanted on Sun-Woo. If she managed to render Sun-Woo unconscious within that timeframe, Ha Soo-Yeong would win. If not, Sun-Woo would be the victor.
Ha Soo-Yeong suppressed her laughter. The rules were leaning in her favor, and she found it amusing that Sun-Woo would be such a fool to accept such an absurd bet with no hesitation.
Pshhh…
Mist spewed forth from her spell array. The mist hastily made its way toward Sun-Woo, dancing in the wind.
“See, I told you it wouldn’t work.”
However, it had no apparent effect. The mist only circled around Sun-Woo and did not reach him. It was as if there was a thin barrier around him.
“You, what...!"
It seemed that he had used the power of the Loa to use the wind to block the mist. Although Soo-Yeong wanted to protest, she realized that he wasn't necessarily cheating. If one spell weren’t enough, then two spells would be to get the job done. If she attacked from two sides at the same time, he wouldn’t even have a chance to block the mist with the wind. With her plan in mind, Ha Soo-Yeong drew the next spell array.
Psshh….
In an instant, mist spread from both spell arrays simultaneously.
The wind he had created blocked the mist shot directly at him. However, the mist shot from Sun-Woo’s blind spot at the side remained untouched. At that moment, Ha Soo-Yeong could smell her victory.
"I wo─!"
"Twenty seconds is up." Sun-Woo's ever-so-cold voice interrupted Ha Soo-Yeong's gleeful shout.
Krrk!
Simultaneously, both of the spell arrays she had drawn collapsed on themselves in a distorted manner. As Sun-Woo pretended to clench his fist in the air, the spell array crumpled completely. It looked like a lump of bunched-up tissue paper.
Shhhh….
The shapeless spell array lost its color, turned into ashes, and disappeared. Ha Soo-Yeong watched the ashes flying in the wind with a desolate expression.
"It’s my turn, right? Twenty seconds?" Without giving her a moment to calm her nerves, Sun-Woo began drawing a spell array.
"What? I haven't finished y—"
Shhhhhh.
A strand of mist extended from his spell array and quickly wrapped around her neck.
"I have, haven’t finishe…." Ha Soo-Yeong couldn't even finish her sentence and lost consciousness.
***
"I haven't... finished..." The knocked-out Ha Soo-Yeong tossed and turned, murmuring in her sleep.
When people with strong spell resistance were under the influence of a curse of fainting spell, they often mumbled in their sleep because they could not completely lose consciousness. Ha Soo-Yeong seemed to be one of these people, as she had strong spell resistance.
