Physics The Greatest Magic
Chapter 238 - Tears Of Emotions And The Endless Trap.

"Did you... Do this to her?" 

The emotionless gaze was wiped off John's face as he gave the man a cold, silent glare. Dark Spikes were subconsciously being formed around John as the man suddenly dropped to the ground. 

"W-What's happening?!" He asked 

He felt as if his hands and legs were being squashed as he laid helplessly on the floor. It was as if someone had placed hundreds of weight bags on him. It hurt and he could barely breathe. 

"I asked you a question..." John muttered as he slowly walked over to the man. 

Seeing this, the man began to panic, he couldn't run nor move, all he could do was simply watch as John crouched down beside him. 

His body which was already trembling began to tremble even more as chills were sent down his spine. It was the feeling one would get if they had fallen into a pool of water surrounded by sharks. 

He felt like prey standing beside a predator. 

"W-WAIT! IT WASN'T ME! SHE DID THIS TO HERSELF!" 

The man closed his eyes praying and hoping that the boy wouldn't hurt him, but he soon after opened them, when he noticed that nothing was happening. 

"Speak." 

Seeing as how the boy was interested in any information he had about the girl, the man quickly thought of an idea to ensure his survival. 

"R-right, s-she was brought to me like this, b-but I-I'm pretty sure that I can replace a way to bring her back to normal. Y-Yes, I'm the only one who knows how to fix her and bring her back to normal." Said the man as he forced a smile 

Suddenly, darkness began to gather above John before taking shape of an open coffin with spikes inside. 

When he noticed this, the forced smile was wiped off the man's face as he asked 

"W-What is that for? I-I told you everything I knew... W-Wait..." 

Without saying anything, John watched as a distortion was formed on the inside of the coffin and began to suck air into it. It wasn't as strong as a black hole, but it was strong, strong enough to drag that man inside. 

"What are you doing?" John asked as he looked at his hand 

[You're not trying to stop me.] 

"Tsk." 

The man felt his body get lighter as his body was slowly being pulled towards the coffin, he tried moving his body but it wouldn't, there was still pressure on it. 

"W-Wait! Y-Young man, I told you everything I knew... Please, I don't deserve this." 

The scientist began to panic while John simply got up before heading over to where serena's crystal was. Seeing this, the scientist began to scream for help. 

"WAIT! WAI-" 

The sound screaming stopped as a creak resounded through the room. Without turning back, John focused his attention on Serena before placing his hand on the crystal and saying 

"I'll get out of here, just wait a minute." Said John 

A small smile was formed on him as tears began to flow down his face when he realised that Serena was still alive. 

He could feel her life force, although it was weak. 

The tears quickly turned to steam as John turned around with an annoyed look. 

He looked over at the area where the coffin had been before dispersing it. There was nothing inside, and instead, A young boy carrying the man who John had nearly killed. 

"Y-Young master!" The man shouted with tears of happiness 

The boy let go of the man and he dropped to the ground before heading towards gesturing John to follow him. 

Ignoring this, John was about to grab on to the Crystal when suddenly the boy spoke up. 

"I wouldn't do that if I were you. You won't be able to get away from me If you're focused on carrying her." Said the boy. 

"Try me." Said John as he let out a sigh 

Hearing this, the boy vanished before reappearing above John. But right when he did, he lost sight of him and in that instant, he felt something grab on to the back of his shirt before throwing him up. 

The boy quickly vanished as John threw him, before appearing behind John with a kick heading straight at John. 

However Right when he did, he was suddenly slammed straight into the ground by a strange force. 

"!? What?" 

"Gravitas x 100..." John muttered 

As the boy stood his ground, the floor beneath him started to crack. 

John quickly shadow stepped above the boy before sending a kick straight down at his head, and as the boy raised his hands to block it. John vanished leaving a trace of electricity before the boy suddenly felt an intense surge of pain through his stomach before he was sent flying straight at the wall behind him. 

*CRASH* 

He hit the wall with so much force that he ended up breaking and crashing through it. 

Meanwhile, John quickly shadow stepped to the wall, before looking around the other room through it. 

He turned back to the scientist who was shaking in fear near the wall, before pointing at his finger at him. 

The man instantly knew what John meant by that and quickly got up before running out of the room 

John watched before turning to the other room where the boy had crashed into. His presence was gone and John couldn't see him anywhere. 

Seeing this, John let out a sigh before heading back over the the Crystal to pick it up and get it the hell out of there. 

He was filled with rage, but knew that Serena's safety was a priority. 

As he shadow stepped above the Light Crystal, he quickly tilted his head to the left, barely avoiding the Shadow spike which had been sent at him. 

A cut was formed on the side of his face, before closing up as it let out steam. 

"You dodged that?" The young boy asked before stepping back into the room. 

Suddenly, he shadow stepped in front of John before sending a straight kick at John's stomach. John who foresaw his next move, turned around where there was nothing behind him before crossing his arms and clenching his fist. 

Right as he did that, the Man shadow stepped behind him Just as John had predicted, and the kick landed straight on John's hands. 

Before he was sent back, John grabbed on to the man's legs before swinging him, nearly slamming him on to the wall beside him. 

But right when he did, the man shadow stepped above John who was still being propelled back from the kick, before grabbing on to his head from above. 

Suddenly, the young boy retracted his hand back, and right as he did, a slash went right through the area where his arm was at, when he noticed a dark electric spark passed through air around John. 

His senses were screaming danger, and right as he was about to shadow step away. John vanished and in that instant he felt a blow land straight on his stomach before John grabbed on to his head and kneed him straight on the face. 

*Crack* 

The young boy slammed on to the ceiling, and as he began to fall, John moved to grab on to him, but he shadow stepped away. 

John looked around in a hurry but couldn't feel the boy's presence in the room anymore. Either John was failing to detect him or he had teleported away to get some time. 

Without bothering to chase him, John shadow stepped over to the big Crystal where Serena was submerged inside of, before casting Levite on it. 

Contrary to John's expectations, nothing happened. The Crystal didn't float, nor did he feel the spell work on it. 

"What?" 

Just as John asked that, he ducked and leapt to the sides, as magic circles formed around him. 

John continued to leap around the move, and whenever he stopped a magic circle would be formed. 

Slowly but surely the room was filling with circles. 

As john began looking for the one responsible for all of this, he noticed something glowing beneath him. 

As he looked at the ground he saw it, a giant glowing dark magic circle which was about to activate. 

"!" 

He shadow stepped above Serena's crystal before looking over at the door. There stood the same young boy with longer glowing dark hair and dark gloves and boots formed around him. 

He had a dark smirk on his face, and seeing it, only aggravated John. 

As electric sparks passed through his body, John was about to shadow step to the boy to finish him once and for all, when all of the sudden he heard the boy say 

"Careful, she might get hurt..." 

Hearing this, John quickly ceased attack his attack before grabbing on to the Light Crystal and lifting it up. 

Right as he did, the circle activated, and in that moment, John glared at the young boy as he gritted his teeth in rage before letting out a sigh and calm yet coldly declaring.

"I'll kill you."
