Physics The Greatest Magic 112 Possession

"W-What's wrong?" I asked 

"Nothing." Replied Serena as she looked away 

She seemed both happy and annoyed at the same time, however, since she didn't want to talk about it, John decided to let it be. 

Ariel then let go of john, and her eyes were a bit red, he looked towards his cloak and saw that it was a bit wet, Ariel was also wailing her eyes out 

John however, acted like he didn't notice, for if he had mentioned it, it would have just annoyed the already annoyed serena. 

Suddenly, john felt something heading towards him, and turned while catching all three of them at nearly the same time. It was moving to him at such a high speed, that even tho both serena and Ariel saw it, they wouldn't have been able to react 

John's body reacted on it's own, and as he looked over to what he had caught, he moved his body forward, avoiding the sudden thrust of master's brother's dagger which was aimed at his shoulder. 

At the same time that john avoided it, he pointed one of the things he grabbed at the neck of what had just tried to attack him. 

"Not bad." Said master's brother as he backed away 

John could tell that he was nervous, when john finally realised what he was holding, he didn't panick but simply, dropped it to the ground, it was throwable knifes. 

And the one who threw them at him in the beginning, was his master. 

Serena and Ariel who saw this, prepared for a fight. 

"That proves it, you've achieved the possessed state." Said master 

"possessed state? You mean the same one as master?" John asked 

John felt different than normal, his emotions felt dimmer and he was much better at using his poker face, His senses felt sharper, and he also felt faster. It was almost as if time was constantly moving on slow motion, but not to the point where he couldn't understand or have a conversation. 

"Yeah. Possession." 

After master said that, her eyes were also clouded in darkness just like john's but in a way felt different 

Serena and Ariel who realised that it was a test, dropped their guards while letting out a relieved sigh 

"I see..." Muttered John 

"The move you pulled, where you suddenly appeared behind serena and Ariel, it's a move from the dark spirit you gain control over, after defeating them." Asked Master 

John was starting to understand what happened and why he knew how he knew how to use the move without chanting despite not knowing the concept. He also knew that he wouldn't be able to use it without being in the possession state that master talked about 

Serena and Ariel were both confused but they didn't want to interrupt 

"Verum Tenebris Flamma" Translation: True Dark Flame 

John suddenly said that, and at the same time, a darkish blue flame was formed above his right hand. 

"Verum Tenebris Aqua" Translation: True Dark water 

A dark liquid was then formed right over john's left hand 

"Verum tenebris clavum glacies" 

A giant sinister looking ice spike was formed above john 

John's master and her brother were both visibly surprised when they saw that. Serena and Ariel were so shocked they didn't know what to say 

"John, explain what happened" Said Master 

"W-Well... you see..." I muttered 

*** 

"What?! Your shadow could use the dark version of every element?" Asked Serena 

"Yeah, that's right." John replied with a nervous smile 

"John... so that means you can use, the chant-less dark version of every element?" Master's brother asked 

"Yeah, my dark spirit or whatever, could. I suddenly understood how to, as well. Although I can only use it in the possessed state for now. I should be able to use it chant-less without this state in the future." 

They all looked at me with widened eyes, except for master. John was surprised by Serena and Ariel's reaction. They didn't even understand what was happening yet they still somehow knew it wasn't normal. 

"john, before you continue talking, leave that state. No matter what, don't use it for a long period of time." Said master 

"Eh? Why?" John asked 

Being in the state, felt weird, but it didn't feel bad, in fact it made him powerful. 

"Otherwise, The darkness will consume your heart." She replied 

Hearing her say that, made him feel a bit afraid. 

"How do I turn it off?" John asked 

"Think, you should know." Said Master 

After thinking for a while, john suddenly realised that he knew how to." 

"Master, I did it." Said John as the darkness left his eyes 

"Eh?" Said john confusedly 

After He fully left the state, he collapsed, and felt all his strength seep away, before going unconscious 

----------------------------------- 

"John. John!" Said the voice 

"Wh?" He muttered as he opened his eyes 

He looked around and realised what happened, He was back inside of his consciousness. And beside him, sat was the lady. He noticed that her face had more features than before, but wasn't sure whether or not it was his imagination 

"How evil, you suddenly left after I called you over" She said while looking forward 

"Ah, sorry about that, I suddenly woke up at the bottom of a cliff, crawling with bugs. Then found out I could teleport only to stop my 2 best friends from heading into a situation which could most likely kill them" Said John 

"Ah... W-Well, nevermind. More importantly, we need to talk." She said 

"Okay." Replied John 

He could feel that what they were going to talk about was definitely going to be serious, although it made him a bit sad to know that he'd be worrying about things even while he's unconscious, he wanted his sleep to at least be a moment of rest. 

"Well then... Where should I start..." She muttered
