The Magician of Sound

Chapter 590 - Ria Vs Shark Part 2

Marza took a few deep breaths as Ria approached him. 

She swung that long sword, carrying all the momentum she had. 

Marza was forced to form an additional shield to block this attack. Even then, the sword broke his shield apart and slightly cut the water armor. At the same time, the force was enough for him to gain another distance from her. 

"Wave." Marza placed his hand on the ground and water began to burst out of the ground. 

Ria narrowed her eyes, realizing that he might use this burst of water to launch her upward. 

Hence, she summoned another five swords around her and sent them to him. 

"Shark in the deep."

The shark head reemerged and swallowed the swords, heading straight to her. 

Ria avoided it effortlessly and jumped forward with her spear in the front. 

"Ext—"When Ria was about to thrust her spear, Marza already ran sideways as if he didn't plan to be trapped in another Ria's trick.

Little did he know, Ria's trick was to make him move by faking this one thrust. 

"What?!" Marza opened his mouth in shock when he saw Ria following him instead of finishing her thrust. 

She then waved her spear to the ground and formed a crescent-shaped white light that approached him with a quick speed. 

Instead of destroying Ria's attack, Marza chose to do something unique. For the first time in his life, he realized that taking a step back was necessary to win the war. 

He swallowed that pride—thinking only the loser would move back—and jumped a few centimeters above the ground. After that, he caught Ria's attack with his hand and absorbed all that momentum to launch him away from Ria.

This way, he could gain enough distance to plan his next move, albeit he didn't have that kind of chance.

Suddenly, Michelle appeared. She had been staying low this whole time by looping around from one shadow after another, making her way to Ria's battlefield.

Now that she arrived behind the shark, Michelle summoned all her scythes and released her bloodlust. 

Blood began to flow out of her mouth despite not having any injury. It was clear she was pushing herself beyond her limit by using her own lifespan to supply the Magic Power. 

And everything was only for one moment. 

"What?!" Marza turned around and saw Michelle's scythes going all over him. 

"Gah." Michelle spat a mouthful of blood while enduring the pain in her body. She used her remaining magic power to strike Marza.

However, Marza used that split second chance to jump to the side. His only thought was to survive. H

Unfortunately for him, one of the scythes still touched the water. 

Michelle used all eight scythe's worth of Shadow Slash and concentrated it in one single spot. 

"Shadow Slash." Michelle released all her power and split the water armor around his arm.

Marza clicked his tongue and kept moving, trying to go away.

Not letting him go, Ria Ross reappeared behind him with a one-edge blade. She bent her knees and cut the exposed arm with one stroke. 

"Argh! You little b*tch." Marza gritted his teeth and kicked Michelle on the stomach.

"Gah!" Michelle spat another mouthful of blood and bounced to the ground a few times. When she stopped, Michelle didn't move anymore as she had already passed out. 

"Thank you. The chance you made has turned into our favor." Ria squinted her eyes and saw Marza planning to cover his ripped arm with water. 

Ria obviously wouldn't allow him to recover, or even worse, formed another arm with his water. Hence, Ria stabbed the exposed arm with another sword, preventing it from getting close.

"Kh!" Marza gritted his teeth and jumped to the side. 

However, there was another sword wave that ran through the ground, hitting him from behind. 

"Argh!" Marza wailed in pain as the water on his back was exposed as well. 

With one sword planted on Marza's arm, the four others flew toward his exposed back and pierced him.

"This is the end." Ria spun her body and waved her blade, trying to cut the exposed area. 

"Shark in the deep."

Ria looked at the shark that was going to swallow both of them and retracted her blade for a bit and used it to cut the water shark. 

Ria also didn't wish to waste her chance, so she kicked Marza's back while forming another blade around her shoe. 

The blade cut Marza's side as blood began to flow out. 

"Argh!" With both injuries, Marza's movement started to get sluggish. 

"She has created this chance for me; I can't waste it, you see." Ria clenched her fist and covered it with a white glove.

Because of her position, she couldn't attack the back again, so she used all her strength to hit Marza on the stomach. 

The water armor stopped her attack, but Marza felt the punch that upset his stomach. Even then, Ria had no sign of stopping. 

"Haaaa!" Ria shouted, raising her own morale to push through the water armor. She even formed a white pillar to boost her hand. 

Despite feeling her hand was about to snap, she continued. The water wasn't idle either. They spread all over her hand and ripped her skin. 

Just like Marza, her hand was covered with blood, and excruciating pain jolted her mind. 

Yet, Ria didn't let go of that fist and continued to push through until she finally broke the armor.

"Wha—"The shark couldn't believe what he saw because human brute force managed to break through his water armor. He could understand if it was her magic, but the last one was simply her brute force. 

Unfortunately for him, his shock ended soon because Ria's hand pierced through his body. And the moment her hand entered his body, several blades popped out around her hand and destroyed all his organs by cutting them into pieces like that of a chainsaw. 

She continued to the head until he split it in half.

"You… are stro-" The shark was still in shock when he uttered his last word. However, he couldn't finish his words because Ria had ripped his head apart. 

"Hah!" Ria panted a few times as her body was covered with blood. At the same time, her hand seemed to be broken because she couldn't feel anything from it, let alone move it. 

She hurriedly pulled her hand as the shark's body fell to the ground. 

Looking back, she saw Leah recovering Michelle's body. 

"Take care of her, okay," said Ria to Leah.

"I understand." Leah nodded furiously. "What will you do?"

"She helped me for one reason. I am the only one who can change the direction of this battle…" Ria shook her hand. 

Because she couldn't move her hand, she summoned another pillar next to her and placed his hand there. She just made sure her hand was straight, pointing at the front. 

After that, a huge light pillar flashed before her eyes and formed another weapon. It was a huge bow. 

Her other hand formed a long spear that became her arrow, pointing to a certain creature on the battlefield. "And I will make sure her help doesn't go to waste."

"God's Arrow, Lokraisha!"
