When My Game Power Follows Me in Real Life novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24 A Battle of Timing

:

A mysterious voice echoed through the hall, soft and distant like a sacred chant.

Aiden didn’t rush to interrupt. He watched the Rogue’s movements carefully instead.

A skill of that scale had to take time to cast. Since Dragon’s Breath was still on cooldown, Gray only had Dragon Fangs left.

He needed to stall for as long as he could.

One, two, three…

‘Dragon Fangs.’

‘-4600.’

‘Target forced into silence for five seconds.

Large–scale casting skills usually took more than ten seconds to complete, often between ten to twenty seconds. But Aiden waited only five seconds. He didn’t dare assume a Monarch–level magic boss didn’t have a passive that shortened cast time.

That was the safest choice.

Under the terrifying effect of Dragon Fangs, even a Monarch–level boss like the Rogue was forced into silence.

And when a magic boss couldn’t cast spells, there was only one thing left to do.

Take the hits.

‘-4250.’

‘-930‘

‘-945.

Gray went on a furious attack spree, landing blow after blow with ease.

Even Aiden threw a few basic attacks from a distance, but as expected, his damage was zero.

When the silence ended, the Rogue’s health bar was already more than half gone.

Counting the chanting time earlier, ten seconds had passed. That gave Gray, a relentless damage machine, the perfect window to strike hard. The burst damage was enough to make the boss cry.

Against a magic boss, the Celestial Dragon truly had a crushing advantage.

But that high damage came with a price.

Gray’s two control skills were now both on cooldown.

The Rogue could now cast freely.

With an energy attribute of five thousand, if it cast any skill with a power boost over four times, it could melt through Gray’s sixteen thousand health in an instant.

Of course, Aiden still had one hidden trump card.

Dragon’s Fury.

A ridiculous 10,000% strength and vitality bonus. With Gray’s current attributes, that skill could deal a terrifying 170,000 damage.

Enough to kill the Rogue three times over.

From the start, Aiden had the upper hand in this fight.

But he never planned to use that skill here.

Losing five percent of his attributes was too big a price. It would hurt not just his current attributes but even future growth.

He wouldn’t use that card unless it was absolutely necessary.

And right now, it wasn’t that desperate yet.

Even though both of Gray’s control skills were on cooldown and their situation looked dangerous, Aiden was still confident.

He had already guessed that after being controlled twice in a row, the Rogue wouldn’t choose another long–cast skill next.

Instant–cast spells were the most likely choice.

But instant spells always had lower power than chanted ones.

That meant Gray could take the hit.

The only risk was if the boss decided to target Aiden instead. If that happened, he would die instantly.

In truth, the Rogue wasn’t dumb. From the very start, its target wasn’t Gray.

It was Aiden, the one controlling him.

It just hadn’t succeeded yet.

Aiden never relied on his opponent’s mistakes to win. That would have been stupid.

He moved with sharp, calculated steps, controlling his position with extreme care.
