Chapter 7: Pandemonium

The very air on the school ground cracked with a myriad of different magical energies as the students of class 2-C went on with their exercise in the practical application of MAGIC.

Team B's concrete walls withstood the barrage of attack spells controlled by Team A students as Claire continues to reinforce her concrete wall with more gravel and limestone every time a crack appears.

"This is fun, I haven't felt this much excitement in a long time!"

Lyn was surprised at her friend's reaction to the situation. She knows too well that Claire hated being pressured into a situation. She wonders what changed her friend's attitude towards all this.

"Are you okay Claire? Did you hit your head or something? Are you having a fever?" Asked Lyn as she placed her hand on Claire's forehead checking her temperature.

"I am fine, don't worry too much, geez; you are like my mom!"

"Well, I can't help but worry, you know. Besides we need you to keep that wall up, so it's not like I would just let you faint or anything. Our whole defence rests upon you!"

Chi walked toward her teammates to listen to what Tusk had in his mind. She went to the left side of Tusk and started listening to his explanation to the group.

"Snap out of it!" Chi muttered as she slapped her cheeks to hide the blush. "Must focus on the task at hand!"

"All right, let's do this!" Is the only word that Chi heard Tusk say, so she just pretended to understand everything that was said in the mini meeting.

Team A has started their assault, from the left flank, Tusk and Meilou are starting to cast a combination spell, while Chi, who has very limited mana just watched for any Team B defenders who might get any funny ideas of attacking the two while they were vulnerable.

Team A's right flank squad started to fire offensive spells, to draw the Team B defenders to their side of the wall, thus leaving the left side unguarded for Meilou and Tusk.

A male student named Greg from Team A started using his wind control to lift the wood shards that his teammate Bret made with his wood MAGIC control.

Shards of wood, sharp as can be, started barraging the right side of the wall, not really making any significant damage but very effective in keeping the defenders busy and annoyed at the same time.

"Who the fuck is spamming that shit!" An irritated Team B defender named Marcos shouted at his companions.

"I recognize that annoying MAGIC, it's probably that douchebag Bret making splinters again! I am so going to murder that bastard!" Shouted Allan to Marcos before he got hit by a...
