The Magician of Sound

Chapter 215 - Reinforcement

The water elemental regenerated its body and glared at them, ready to throw another punch.

Kai's expression darkened, noticing the situation had finally turned worse.

Ayaka looked at Sofia and nodded before shouting at Kai. "Kai! We are going to hold this monster! You and Michelle need to take care of that guy. Tasha should also go back to your position."

Kai was surprised to hear this, but he immediately looked at Michelle and signaled to move. They had no time to hesitate.

Michelle waved her swords, releasing her Shadow Slash. The target was none other than Eru.

Kai followed the Shadow Slash from behind with his swords, planning to strike him at his wound again as soon as he destroyed the Shadow Slash. However, he suddenly heard a movement under the sand and immediately raised his swords to the front as if he was going to receive an attack.

Suddenly, a huge water spike appeared and blasted the Shadow Slash instantly before moving toward Kai. He remembered this type of attack. It was coming from Ra.

"Oscillation Shield!" Kai used his strongest shield without hesitation.

He felt the force was, in fact, stronger than Ra's who used this technique from his mouth. It seemed his power had been reduced more than half because the crab could actually pull off a stronger move like this.

Kai gritted his teeth and stabbed the ground, trying to block this attack… Or at least that was what they thought. Little did they know, he actually remembered another thing. It was the fact that a Magical Beast actually died from this burst of water.

He tilted his shield a little bit, creating an angle. Even though it was not at full power, he still managed to channel the water toward the magical beasts. Surprisingly, the strength was still stronger than he imagined, pushing the magical beast to the front and hitting the one in front of them. Although they were not dead, Isabelle and Tasha already knew which magical beasts to target, especially Tasha.

She released her Lightning Arrow and electrocuted those few magical beasts. The reason why Kai thought it wasn't good to have the field flooded, it was simply because the soldiers would also get electrocuted.

He tried to lower their loss, but he also knew that they were on the verge of defeat. On one hand, it was really sad and would cause many problems if he lost this fight. On the other hand, the loss was really deserved. He didn't manage to predict there was going to be a Protector coming.

However, Kai also got another problem at this moment.

"Bam!"

"Argh!" A series of screams resounded across the battlefield as he realized that the enemy almost destroyed the left army.

Kai thought for a second and shouted. "Have fifty people on the wall to reinforce the left army!"

Silva ordered them, but the problem had yet to end. Michelle suddenly flew toward him with her back facing him. Kai instinctively caught her and asked. "Are you okay?"

"You haven't reached that level yet!" Eru shouted at Kai as he appeared right beside him, waving his claw toward him.

Kai raised another Oscillation Shield, trying to block this attack. Unfortunately, everything was for naught. Eru blew him away toward the left army.

Realizing he would crash on the magical beasts, he shifted his body, hugged Michelle, and activated another Oscillation Shield on his back to reduce the impact.

*Boom!*

He gritted his teeth and put Michelle down while looking at Eru. Meanwhile, Sofia and Ayaka were also blown away by the water elemental.

"Kya—!"

Sofia still saw the monster still want to attack them with his fist and immediately used her magic. "Ice Shield!"

A tall wall made of ice suddenly emerged and blocked the fist.

Ayaka took another deep breath and rose again, activating her Fire Wing to get his attention.

Michelle was also panting in front of Kai. "Kh! That broke one of my ribs… I could still hold on."

She quickly summoned her Shadow to protect them from the magical beasts.

"I am afraid this is the time we retreat…" Kai sighed as he listened to everyone's movement in his surroundings. Suddenly, Tasha appeared before him and denied it. "No! We can't give up! I still have around fifty percent of magic power… I think I will release my own seal that I place in my heart…"

"Sister!" Kai widened his eyes, never expecting she would come to such a conclusion. The seal she was talking about was not a physical seal. It was simply a psychological seal for her to not use her power to the fullest, especially her Space Magic. Unfortunately, their situation had already turned worse.

"Don't worry! This power is dangerous because I have your magic power. If I don't have yours, I am just simple trash! In the worst case, I can simply return everything to you and refuse to do anything…" Tasha smiled with a sad tone. It was easy to see she was faking it even without Kai's extraordinary hearing.

"No—!" As Kai said that word, he abruptly turned his head and saw a few black dots far in the sky.

"I will show you the true power of Sealing Magici—!" Before she finished her words, Kai grabbed her hands with a serious expression.

"It's fine. You don't need to show it now… Everything is going to be alright." Kai smiled before looking at Eru, who was rained down by Isabelle's bullets. He rose back on his feet and shouted as loud as possible. "All Soldiers, hear me! Our condition might look bad, but fret not! Just three more minutes! Please trust these three minutes of your life in my hand!

"If nothing happens in these three minutes, all of you can escape from this battlefield as I, Kai Carter, will hold the rear for you! Please hear me out! Just for these three minutes. Believe me!" As soon as Kai said those words, he let his instinct take over, slashed ten magical beasts in the surrounding, and ran toward Eru again while shouting. "Those who believe in me; fight with your lives on the line!"

The battlefield turned silent because most of them couldn't trust him. Kai was still a student, no matter how the world described him. They couldn't trust their lives to a person like him… Albeit, a few people suddenly roared, especially Silva, who was the loudest.

"I, Silva, will follow Sir Kai to the death!" Silva roared and released every tiny bit of strength in his body as he sent some magical beasts flying.

"I, Gillian, will follow Sir Kai to death!"

"I, Alec, will follow Sir Kai to the death!"

"I…"

The army commanders were the first to shout and release all of their strength as if they didn't care anything that would happen after three minutes passed. However, those words somehow reached the corner of the soldiers' hearts as they also let out a rallying cry.

Kai smirked as he charged at the Protector again.

"!!!" Eru noticed the change in Kai and immediately struck him with his Claws. Normally, Kai would dodge or deflect them away, but this time, Kai suddenly struck him with all of his strength. Even after getting blown away, he kept waving his swords again and again as if there were two different Kai.

Tasha decided to go around and teleport some magical beasts to lessen the burden of the army while Michelle appeared behind the protector and struck his leg with all her strength.

"Shadow Slash!"

Eru wanted to react, but Kai suddenly released another surge of strength, resulting in one of his legs being cut. However, Eru also realized that his attack became simpler. Knowing that reason, he decided to test him.

"Kya—!" Ayaka and Sofia were suppressed by the water elemental and almost got punched by the elemental. As soon as he heard the scream, Eru could see the sudden change in Kai's expression.

"Michelle. I will leave him to you for a few seconds." Kai took over his instinct again, gritted his teeth and leaped toward the elemental, raising his hand and creating another Oscillation Shield. Luckily, he already got twenty percent of his power, so he could make a bigger Oscillation Shield to block this attack.

Unfortunately, it only redirected the power to him instead of the two girls, resulting in him getting blown away. He crushed into the ice wall before falling to the ground.

He instinctively stood up and wiped the blood on his mouth before charging again. It was at this moment, the situation finally changed.

*Thud Thud Thud~*

Loud music suddenly echoed across the battlefield, making the soldiers turn their heads away. They were wondering why they would hear such a thing, and when they raised their vision, they saw a few cargo airplanes. Without anyone saying anything, they realized those airplanes were carrying many soldiers, AKA, their reinforcements.

"They are our reinforcement!"

"That's right. We only need to wait for another minute before they start dropping soldiers off the airplanes and a few more seconds before they landed."

"Just like Sir Kai said! It is precisely three minutes! Do you know what that means, Soldiers?"

Silva and the others shouted as loud as possible, trying to raise their morale. The soldiers were still stunned and needed another push.

Kai grinned again as he slashed many more magical beasts in his surroundings, creating a ruckus as big as possible. He didn't forget to rush again while cutting on many magical beasts and shouted. "Soldiers! On me!"

The soldiers finally woke up and saw Kai killing magical beasts and advancing like a train. There was only one thing to do for them… and that is to fight…

"Ooh!"

The loud roars from the soldiers shook the entire battlefield.
