I Cast Forbidden Spells Until the World Breaks-Chapter 64 Because I Have a Reason I Must Win

Evan was struck into charcoal by a bolt of lightning and carried away by medics.

He had shown no mercy, so Zayne returned none.

The battle ended with Zayne’s victory, pushing his score to 140.

That meant the final of this year’s college entrance trial would be Nia versus Zayne.

It was an internal clash for Old Shipyard Port High.

No matter who won, the champion would belong to Old Shipyard Port High.

Norton had already started celebrating early.

The one who took Evan’s defeat the hardest was Redwood’s Omar.

He nearly ground his molars to dust while staring at Zayne on the arena.

To win, he had taught Evan a Forbidden Spell, even at the cost of Evan’s future.

Yet despite all that, Evan still lost.

Omar could not accept it.

"I will report this."

"I will report it for sure."

"Zayne from Old Shipyard Port High deliberately attempted to kill his opponent."

"He is level 18 and used such a powerful Forbidden Spell on a level 14 opponent."

"This is attempted murder."

Omar stood up and roared.

On the arena, deliberately killing an opponent was strictly forbidden.

Anyone who reached the arena stage was a top tier talent.

Once grown, they could stand on their own.

Losing even one was a massive loss to Aurelion.

Because of this, the college entrance trial had a clear rule.

If a contestant caused an opponent’s death, their qualification and all results would be revoked.

Under normal circumstances, seeing Evan in such critical condition would have swayed many people.

But after recalling how Evan had pierced Zayne’s heart without hesitation, the crowd’s expressions turned strange.

If anyone had truly attempted murder, it was Evan.

If Zayne had been any other class, he would have been dead or crippled.

"Go report it then."

"Yelling here does nothing."

Norton snorted and looked at Omar like he was a joke.

"Norton, just you wait."

"This is not over."

Omar gritted his teeth and turned to leave.

He did not want to watch the rest.

The remaining fight was an internal battle for Old Shipyard Port High.

Watching it would only irritate him further.

"Deal."

"Double happiness today."

Norton grinned widely, every wrinkle on his face spreading out.

"I was already thrilled about an internal final."

"Who knew the eyesore would leave on his own."

"Perfect."

Omar stumbled mid step and almost turned back to fight Norton.

"So tired."

"This college entrance trial feels more exhausting than fighting Dano."

Zayne muttered quietly as he stepped off the arena.

Against Dano, he could go all out.

He could throw as many Forbidden Spells as he wanted.

Here, he had to hold back at every turn.

He was afraid someone would notice something off.

The arena matches were live streamed.

Countless eyes were watching.

Otherwise, with Evan’s strength, forget piercing his chest.

Even a hundred Evans tied together would not be enough for Zayne to kill.

He needed to grow stronger as soon as possible.

Once he was strong enough to not fear his immortality being exposed, he would not need to restrain himself anymore.

And the final opponent was Nia.

That made Zayne’s head hurt even more.

He definitely could not deal with her the same way he dealt with Evan.

If he blasted her with a Forbidden Spell and turned her into charcoal, Astrachior would never let it go.

"Let me think."

"Is there any Forbidden Spell I can actually use."

Zayne was getting a headache.

He needed one that could defeat Nia without seriously injuring her.

Worldbane Thunderfall or Hellfire Armageddon were out of the question.

Those spells even crushed a warrior like Evan.

For a mage like Nia, even a near miss would be fatal.

While Zayne was still struggling, the seventh round arrived.

It was the final.

For many spectators, the outcome already seemed clear.

Zayne had shown the terror of a Forbidden Spellcaster against Evan.

If Nia took even one Forbidden Spell, she was done.

On the arena, Nia stood opposite Zayne.

Her beautiful face was filled with complicated emotions.

Moments ago, she had thought Zayne would die under Evan’s spear.

Instead, he had reversed everything with Savage Death Rewind.

With the proctor’s signal, the battle that would decide the Old Shipyard Port champion officially began.

Yet something felt strange.

Neither Zayne nor Nia moved.

They both stood there silently.

Zayne was afraid of killing Nia by accident.

Nia, on the other hand, seemed lost in thought.

After a while, Nia spoke coldly.

"Zayne."

"If you need to rest, I can wait."

"I do not want to take advantage of you."

"No need."

"You can attack directly."

Zayne waved his hand, looking troubled.

He reviewed every Forbidden Spell he currently knew.

There was not a single one he could safely use.

Forbidden Spells without offensive power included Swiftstep Waltz, Infernal Overdrive, and Necrotic Dominion.

Those had special effects.

Every Forbidden Spell with real attack power was overwhelmingly destructive.

"Fine."

"Then do not blame me."

"Because I have a reason I must win."

Determination flashed in Nia’s eyes.

She opened her spellbook and cast immediately.

"Explosive Phoenix Flame."

Flames surged across the arena.

Fireballs filled with terrifying heat roared toward Zayne.

"Forbidden Spell Swiftstep Waltz."

Facing the incoming fireballs, Zayne sacrificed a kidney.

In exchange, his agility increased fivefold.

If he could not fight back, he would stall.

He would drag the fight out until Nia ran out of mana.

His score was only 140.

To enter Supreme Academy, he needed full marks.

That meant he could not lose this match.

Zayne’s figure flickered rapidly through the flames.

He looked like a ghost weaving through a sea of fire.

His movements reached the extreme.

He changed positions constantly.

Each fireball barely brushed past him and missed entirely.

The arena burned fiercely.

Yet Zayne moved within it as smoothly as flowing clouds.

The sight left everyone watching in shock.

A Forbidden Spellcaster with such high agility was unbelievable.

But soon, something felt off.

"Why is Zayne only dodging and not attacking?"

"If he uses that lightning Forbidden Spell again, he would win instantly."

"Maybe the lightning spell costs too much."

"He probably cannot cast it a second time yet."

"That makes sense."

"Otherwise, why would he only dodge?"

"If you ask me, Zayne probably thinks Nia is pretty and does not want to hurt her." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"You are all behind."

"I heard Zayne was taken in as Astrachior’s disciple."

"He is probably planning to hand the championship to Nia on purpose."
