"Andrew, you bastard..."
Cook spat out a mouthful of blood, "…just...ridiculous."
As the foremost Magic Apprentice under Hubert, Cook had capital he was proud of.
He didn't possess Pete's "Eight Strange Fires," nor did he have Brian's powerful "Seven Fireball Array."
Cook's greatest proficiency was in the "Desolate Language Series."
Within the Desolate Language Series, the magic he excelled at just happened to be the "Desolate Breath" that Andrew had previously rebounded.
At this moment, Cook replayed the events that had just transpired in his mind.
He was utterly perplexed: "Why could my 'Desolate Breath,' something not even Mages with official titles could necessarily withstand, be thwarted by Andrew, who even seemed to rebound a portion of my magic's power?!"
If Andrew hadn't reflected a portion of Cook's magic power, causing Cook's own mind to be affected, Cook was confident he could have summoned "Molten Rock Armor" at the moment of impact to fend off Andrew's punch!
