The Magician of Sound

Chapter 196 - Fight Part II

Ferocious aura gushed out of his eyes as killing intent started adding the intensity from Kai. The moment their eyes locked, the boy almost stumbled as if this aura wanted to engulf him. 

"Ha!" The boy roared as loud as possible, breaking this sense of illusion. He realized he was too scared earlier. 

Releasing his own magic power, the boy snarled. "I, Rizou, will kill you with these hands!"

Kai still had no change of expression, looking at this person with disgust. This Rizou reminded him of Eric. Both of them could only put their hatred toward someone else because they didn't have the strength to succeed despite the chance being the same for everyone else. 

Kai raised both of his swords and leaped forward. Rizou also did the same and struck Kai with his claws.

Unfortunately, the gap between their magic was too far. Even Michelle's Shadow Slash would get obliterated by Kai's Vibration Sword in a single slash, let alone this unstable magic claw.

*Clang!* The sound of clashing between Kai's Sword and Ron's Magic Claw echoed across the region. They passed each other in the meantime before turning around once again. 

They didn't charge at each other again because Rizou felt his right hand hurt. As soon as he realized what just happened, he screamed out of pain. "Ah!"

All claws in his right hand were cut by Kai in that single exchange. None of the trios from before could even make a graze on his claws, but Kai somehow managed to do it very cleanly.

Kai only smiled lightly. This was also why he reminded him of Eric. Both of them had too much pride in their own ability and thought they would win. However, Ria once said. "A guy who thinks he will win is totally open to attack."

This was a difference of experiences. Knowing your weakness and thinking the worst possibility first instead of thinking his enemy was weak was something that Ria taught him. 

"You bastard!" Rizou charged at him again.

Kai also ran forward, trying to strike his hands if not claim his life. However, Rizou suddenly pulled his hands and spun his body, trying to kick Kai. 

"!!!" In this position, none of Kai's swords could reach him. Yet, Kai remained calm as he kicked him right on his stomach before Rizou's kick arrived. 

"Puah!" Rizou spat some acid fluids and flew away. Of course, he tried to retain his sanity and send a claw attack to prevent Kai from chasing him.

Unfortunately, Kai already destroyed this attack multiple times, and another one wasn't a problem. 

"Cain. Ron. Break the barrier and shout as loud as possible. Our victory will be assured if one of you can do that!" 

Kai furrowed his eyebrows and leaped toward him, trying to kill him. 

 "Unfortunately, none of you can escape here alive." He glanced at the female and felt regret that he couldn't kill her by himself, but there was no time to regret it as he pointed his finger toward the other boy.

Cain, the female mantis, released her magic power and sent a shock wave through the ground to break the barrier, according to Rizou, but Eva and Eve broke her attacks. Unlike Rizou's, her attack didn't pack too much punch, so the twins could easily break these attacks. They also created a spear made of fire and shot them toward Cain.

Cain slashed them up like cutting butter, but the real purpose of these spears was to buy time for Tommy. 

On the side, Tommy summoned an Ice Wall circling around Cain. Ayaka was also inside the circle as she was tasked to kill her.

"I will be fighting you." Ayaka took a deep breath as a magic circle appeared underneath her. A blazing red flame appeared right on Ayaka's feet, boosting her speed in a single jump.

"!!!" Cain's body shook as she never expected something like this.

Ayaka had been Kai's support this whole time, so she never needed to do this. However, Kai was taking that dangerous boy by himself, so she needed to handle this Cain with the support of Isabelle's group. 

Ayaka stepped right in front of her and pounced her spear toward the girl. Cain blocked these attacks with her two hands, but Ayaka had already built her momentum. 

*Clang!* 

The moment it struck her hands, the spear power and sharpness instantly shattered her scythe-shaped hands in which one of them was flying. This could only happen because she used a huge portion of her magic power to block Kai's Vibration Sword earlier.

Ayaka still used the momentum of her spear to spin her body and go around Cain. She was utilizing her Wildebeest speed to move to her back and stabbed her from behind. 

"Argh!" She never thought there was a girl this powerful behind that man earlier. Managing to react at the last second, she managed to shift her body a little and let it pierce her abdomen instead. Cain endured the pain and struck Ayaka's with her broken scythe-shaped hand, albeit…

"Argh!" She let out another scream when she realized the flame was covering Ayaka completely, burning her back and blocking her scythe. 

"Fire Armor!" Ayaka smiled at her while looking at the burned scythe. She glanced at the twins jumping to the sky and shouted. "Now!"

"Fire Dragon!" The twins held hands while releasing two dragons made of fire from their other hands. 

Ayaka immediately pulled her spear out of Cain's body and jumped out of the ice wall. Tommy immediately raised his Ice Wall and created a closed-half sphere to make sure no fire gushed out from this and hit the Sound Insulation Room. 

*Boom!*

The dragons exploded on the point-blank range, making the blue ice look red.

It took them a few minutes to cool the fire down, and everyone thought she had died because there was no scream. However, a shout reverberated in everyone's ears.

"She hasn't died yet!" This shout alarmed everyone while Ayaka immediately raised her spear, looking at the ice intensely.

*Bam!* 

Suddenly, the ice was cut into pieces before a shadow leaped toward the unguarded.

"Not good! I won't be able to dodge it!" Tommy was maintaining his ice wall this whole time, so his magic was expended a bit, and he couldn't use his magic to block this attack. At the same time, his sword wouldn't be fast enough to block it. He tried to shift his body as much, hoping to miss the vital, so Evan could heal him but…

*Stab!*

A spear pierced Cain's heart from the back before she gradually fell down due to its weight and momentum.

Behind her, Tommy could see Ayaka panting and utterly shocked. 'To think that the one who managed to kill me only because recklessness actually saved me in real life…'

Meanwhile, Ayaka's heart beat rapidly as this was the first time she killed a human… Half-human. Her hands started shaking. Although she had experienced deaths, watched gory scenes of people's deaths, and killed many magical beasts, she had never killed a human before. This was the first time she realized the difference between killing magical beasts and killing a human. It felt so heavy in her heart. Kai's expression where he asked them if they had killed a human before resurfaced on her mind. 'So… That's why he asked.' 

Meanwhile,

Michelle had her own struggle in beating this enemy of hers. It would be better if she fought the wolf boy instead of this guy due to how hard his body was. Every attack of hers was destroyed by his feet.

She didn't know why, but Ron gradually became fiercer and fiercer as time passed by, forgetting his timid personality.

"How dare you kill Sister Cain!" Ron roared as he kicked Michelle, only to find it was blocked by Michelle's sword. However, the force still pushed her back a few meters.

'I need another attack pattern.' She adjusted her position to land, thought for a moment and smirked. Placing her hand on the ground, two magic circles appeared below both Michelle and Ron. Both of their shadows rose.

"!!!" The shadow behind Ron's shadow held him on the feet, restricting him from destroying her attacks with that kick of his.

Michelle and her shadow then released two Shadow Slashes each.

"Don't underestimate me!" Ron roared as he raised both hands, trying to shatter Michelle's attack once more. "Horse has four feet, so my hands are almost as powerful as my feet!"

"I've never underestimated you," Michelle smirked as she looked at her Shadow Slashes clashing with his two hands.

"Hmph! I will shatter these attacks again!" Ron punched these four slashes before finding something wrong when he remembered Michelle's words. 

Suddenly, he realized that he was losing in force. "Wait… Why am I losing in power?! Impossible!" 

Michelle gazed coldly as she repeated the same answer. "There is no way I am underestimating you… I even think you must have another secret power. That's why I send a double attack since I notice that you didn't dare to block both of my Shadow Slashes simultaneously. You would always destroy them one by one."

"No!" He roared and tried to destroy her attacks, albeit…

*Slash!*

"Argh!" Two hands were sent flying to the air as blood splattered on the ground. Michelle leaped toward Ron, trying to kill him in this clash.

However, Ron still struggled for his life by pushing the ground as hard as possible along with his magic power. He created a small crater and destroyed the shadow at the same time, releasing himself free. 

He tried to escape for his life, but an arrow and a bullet blasted his two legs.

"Nice Job." On top of the building, Tasha smiled after releasing her arrow. Isabelle nodded with a smile. "Michelle will kill that man now."

On the ground, Michelle took advantage of this situation and sent Ron's head flying as she couldn't block her without his limbs and died just like that.
