Not exacly a decisive counter attack. and another teacher terminaly down… how many of them are actualy left? Ars and Faye and just maybe Hel fighting for last sparks of his life?
“ars Arsis arma superior” is also correct (although the genitive does sound strange), it just translates differently: “Ars’ art [is the] better weapon.”
A note to the assassin that just got Arsed: “Ars longa, vita brevis” (“Ars longs to shorten your life span”)
I really doubt Ars has no protection spells around him… plus he does have one advantage… even though an imp he is a draconic beeing… than implies… hard scales
Everyone agreese it’s about time Ars and the others start taking action. I also am impressed by Faye’s performance her. Even drunk like there’s no tomorrow she retains her agility. :O

You know drunk people usualy have awfully perfect ability to relax muscles… not to mention the semi-random way how they move makes them hard to hit…

Hence why drunken master is a useful style of kung fu.
Plus it’s damn funny to watch someone do drunken monkey.
@ Paeris Kiran:
Indeed, but they lack actual agility, which combined to lack of balance is the reason why they move randomly. Here we see Faye performing a jump that requires balance, speed and agility, things a drunk does not have.
As for the Drunken Master fighting style, it’s supposed to MIMIC being drunk. Even a master of this fighting style is actually drunk like Faye, he’ll end up on the floor. They do drink to fight, but never to the point of ending up drunk, and the reason is elsewhere.
Now these assassins get to learn why attacking a mage-warrior school is a really, really bad idea. Doubly so at graduation, when all the students are at least decently skilled, the talented ones are amazing, and everyone’s still sharp from finals.
We have tons of booze right? Douse the attackers in booze and then set them on fire with magic and candles. Now see what you’ve done? Since no one came armed we have to burn over a dozen people to death and the smell will never come out of the carpet.
You son of a bitch. I’m here glancing over the comments with a steely gaze and my cursor perpetually hovering over the red “Poor form, sir!” button on every post I read. But then I read yours and I promptly burst into laughter! Now I must read all comments to see if anyone else has attained your level of ingenuity deserving of the green “It was okay, I suppose” button.
Didn’t they just past dangerous tests? Are they not warriors and mages? Just because you have a frilly dress on doesn’t mean you can’t fight! Start flinging spells! This ain’t Hogwarts so start with the finger waving! Hell, the IMP is doing better than the lot of you!
Ars might have gone for disarming first to have someone to… question about where these red bastards jumped in from.
After all, they most likely left the brains of the operation behind (anyone with half a smart to rub in the night would -know- that going in like this is bound to lead to at least some level of resistance, and risking yourself when you have perfectly sacrifiable pawns…)
And I am rather unsurprised that Ars was the first one to have a spell go off in the opposite direction.
I have a feeling that he will get killed in the next episode. That’s what usually happens to the one initiating a retaliation, unless he’s the main character.
Ars will kick ass.
Arsome!
Looks like Ars…
*sunglasses*
Just owned that Arsonist.
YEEEEEEEAAAAAA-(keep the Ars puns coming, my friends)-AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
Ars just kicked some arse.
@ Baron of Storms:
EXACTLY what I was thinking! Although it was more like “Ars is about to kick some arse!”
HEY EVERYBODY!! GEORGE WASHINGTON GETS PUSHED AND POSSIBLY DIES IN THE THIRD PANEL!!
XD
It’s clear who has the better arsenal.
ars Arsis arma superior
(Ars’ skill is better than weapons)
(sry, did Latin hw before reading this)
DAHHHH!! I “arma” ‘s in the wrong case it should be dative not accusative.
Woo go Ars
Woo, use hyperfang on assasin!
(See Sandra and Woo comic)
Maior enim poena ulla!!! (I cheated… Used Google translate. ‘Cause I can.) @ Guest:
I would’ve just shot a hole in his guts but whatever this’ll have to do.
I would’ve just blown his head up but I guess this’ll have to do.
That’s what I’m talkin’ bout.
There’s more to do, Ars and Lili, much more…..
@ Guest: Better Google Translate translation, I think: “Ars artis est melius quam arma.”
No one puts Ars in a corner.
Ryn used dodged? Well at least not everyone is dying.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS ARS!

Ars spars with assassin. Harsh, Ars, harsh!
Anyone else thinking what sad event occurs next?

What? NOONE has prepared defensive spells for dinner?
Finally! Someone starts killing the bad guys!

@ illeatyourself:
That’s Ben Franklin silly!
Also, I knew SOMEONE would start not-being a pushover and fight back :’D
Ars , sans peur et sans reproche
Looks like i found me a new comic! xD This is very catching. ^.^ Much Like!

But, well done sir, regardless.
Ha! Just realized that guy in Panel 1 isn’t freaking out about the fireballs. He’s actually, “Motherfucker! That was my best cape!”
@ Darth Killer:
Then again, tying to be killed can be a sobering experience.
Adrenaline works wonders!
@ illeatyourself:
Judging by the large glob of blood flying out of his chest, he’s already working on dying.

Okay. I’m done ranting about this page.
“Improved Disarm” DOES come in handy from time to time…
Ars might have gone for disarming first to have someone to… question about where these red bastards jumped in from.

We never did see how she landed…
No one did “EXPELLI-ARS-MUS” yet?
