The Magician of Sound

"Lightning Storm."

The bolt of lightning struck forth.

Rapakha sensed an urgency and clapped his hand. "Grand Mountain."

*Rumble!*

The ground started shaking before rising and sticking together on top of Rapakha's head. He had realized where the bolt lightning would hit and made it thicker than any other parts.

Just like how the ground could conduct electricity, these stones dispersed a portion of the attack while the main lightning attack somehow got stopped by the thick layer of stones.

Kai widened his eyes upon this sphere-shaped roof that managed to block Tasha's attack. Looking at Rapakha now, he knew he was in his weakest state. And yet, he knew he couldn't attack him due to the electricity because he mainly attacked with his physical ability.

'I think I need some magic that can be used to attack others without my sword…' Kai thought.

Still, he also had his teammates that weren't restricted by such a condition.

Rapakha also noticed that and immediately shut the first person down by creating a very tall wall.

"Tch." Isabelle clicked her tongue. With this kind of stone, she wouldn't know the enemy's position. Besides, Rapakha's wall shouldn't be that easy to shoot through. "As expected… Even though he won't attack me, he still stops me from attacking.

"Well, the darkness is hard to navigate, but I have wind magic. I will put this to use and do some distractions." Isabelle smirked.

"Distractions? I know about changing your position by flying, but what do you mean by distractions?" Evan furrowed his eyebrows, confused.

"You can't realize it?" Isabelle grinned, planning to tease him. "Well, try to see my movement, and you might realize what I want to do. Captain should also realize my movement and match it."

"Fine." Evan pouted as he watched Isabelle flying to the sky as she wanted to shoot from a higher area before he saw a shocked look on her face.

A moment earlier, as soon as he erected the wall, Rapakha smiled. Because the wall was wide and tall, no one realized what kind of wall he made, even with Kai's hearing ability.

After sealing Isabelle's line of view, he proceeded to block the others.

"Shadow Slash."

"Scarlet Explosion."

"Ice Particles. Cube."

Michelle's and Sofia's attacks were going through the gaps and headed toward Rapakha.

To respond to the two attacks, Rapakha coated his feet with stones and kicked Michelle's Shadow Slash toward Sofia's ice cubes. Some of them were destroyed, allowing Rapakha to hit the rest. He couldn't do it earlier due to her aim being diverse, but since the number had decreased, he had no trouble in kicking those cubes.

On the other hand, Ayaka made a magic circle right in front of the few pillars.

"Scarlet Explosion!"

*Boom!*

A thunderous sound of an explosion filled the silent night as it hit a few pillars that had been transmitting the electricity. Because it lost its conductor, the electricity flowing on those pillars went berserk and enhanced the explosion.

"Good Good Good!" Rapakha's voice resounded through the smoke. Even though the explosion hit him and the pillars crumbled, his voice seemed to be brimming with energy. Unfortunately, the lightning strike didn't hit him due to the explosion, but he should get a certain amount of damage.

That was why Kai suddenly felt something was wrong and kept his eyes peeled.

Sofia, on the other hand, saw something amazing. Rapakha's fire remained unfazed, but the location was moved two meters back.

When the wind blew the smoke away, they saw it and further realized Rapakha's true strength.

They realized that Rapakha had yet to move a single step, and all of those attacks only managed to move him two meters back.

"Seriously?" Kai twitched his eyebrows.

"All of you have an amazing ability. Sound Magic with strong physical ability… You might want to get some attack magic. That Sound Blast can be used as an attack, but it's mostly to support your own attack or ability. That's why I am suggesting you to get another magic.

"As for the shadow girl, your ability is unique, but I think you need to have stronger attack power. I think that is your homework for now���

"The fire girl has strong magic and a unique fighting style. However, you might want to learn about controlling your power. Let's look at your explosion, if you can control your magic to the precise degree, I think you can use magic inside magic. How about making that torrential fire carry your explosion magic? The one that you used first… Well, you need to train hard to attain control, so good luck.

"I won't say anything about the lightning girl since I will discuss it when I teach you about magic. Now, the problem is the ice user. You are the same as the shadow girl, lacking power. I know that it is enough to kill humans with that magic, but what are your true enemies? Magical Beasts, right? They have a powerful defense, so keep that in mind.

"As for the one in the distance, tell her that she needs to work with her close combat ability. No enemy will leave someone like her alone… Well, I probably don't need to worry about her because I found a fighter aura inside her. Just keep doing it and become a good all-rounder."

Rapakha gave advice for each of them, which they gratefully accepted. In fact, some of them already realized their problems and had been working toward it.

Michelle created Shadow Possession, but it seemed to be not enough. She glanced at Kai, and a thought crossed her mind, making her smile.

Ayaka was surprised by what the elder said just now. She never thought it was possible, but since it was coming from him, training her control to the highest degree might be good for her.

As for Sofia, she just realized it. Although she had been working to increase her power, she just never thought she would face those protectors and this person. Since she had been entangled in this matter, it would probably be a good idea to learn a few more offensive magic.

Lastly, Kai remained silent. He had realized it, but he still thought about what kind of magic could turn into a powerful attack. The thought never appeared in his mind, and the concept was still vague. A few research pieces could be used as a base, but none of them was realistic to him.

That was why Kai didn't know how to respond. Instead, he stopped the problem for the time being with the exoskeleton.

When Rapakha glanced at their expression, he knew what kind of progress they had about this. He let them for a minute before he said, "Let's fight again."

This was what made Isabelle surprised. She never expected that none of them was moving when she peeked over the high wall. Unfortunately, she couldn't hear nor read their lips to understand what they were talking about.

There was another one that shocked her. It was the thickness of the wall. Due to the angle and height, they couldn't see the thickness of the wall. Only after she flew up that she could see how thin it was. If she continued to press that trigger, she might break the wall and hit Rapakha.

Never would an image of Rapakha playing her came into her mind. Even so, she read the last one as a challenge and immediately aimed at his head.

*Bam!*

Rapakha took a glimpse of her location and smiled while stopping the bullet with his palm and closing it. "What a dangerous one."

Kai widened his eyes and shouted. "It's enough. Let's continue!"

This shout was like a wake-up call for the others as they readied their weapons again.

Kai leaped toward Rapakha to give the others time to prepare their attacks.

Rapakha smirked as he summoned a few spikes from the ground and shot them toward the girls in the arena.

This allowed Kai to arrive without any problems, but Rapakha let Kai hit his abdomen that had been reinforced by stone.

"!!!" Kai opened his eyes wide. His sword managed to penetrate a portion of the stone, but it stuck afterward.

He then sensed another attack coming above, so he looked up and found Rapakha's hand slamming toward him.

'I need to abandon my sword…' This was the first thought that came across his mind, but suddenly, Kai gritted his teeth and recalled how Rapakha handled them until now. If he didn't take a risk and improved, he might not be able to get a clean hit on Rapakha.

In that case, there was only one thing that he needed to do. He spun his body around and kicked Rapakha's hand with the help of his Sound Blast to enhance the power, pushing Rapakha's hand away.

With the sudden change of balance, Kai quickly adapted to his new position with head below and legs above. He used another Sound Blast to boost his sword to make a cut.

It was at this time, Rapakha realized Kai's movement, immediately used his other hand to grab his foot, and threw him away.

"Great… You are great. I think you know what to improve in that fighting style of yours. You are playing too safe. I know that it's good to have no injury, but when someone who is equal or more powerful than you is playing aggressively, you will soon realize you are at a disadvantage." Rapakha smiled before looking at the sword on his belly. "Still, because of the new style, your sword is stuck on my belly now. What will you do? Ask me to give it to you?"

"No." Kai shook his head and smiled as he adjusted his body position. "I have a friend."

*Bam!*

A thunderous sound echoed before Rapakha looked up, knowing it was coming from Isabelle. He raised his hand to stop it, but suddenly…

*Bang!*

The bullets hit each other and ricocheted. One of them hit the ground, but the other one hit Kai's sword, blowing it away from Rapakha's body.

The sword flew to Michelle's feet, and she kicked it to Kai.

"This is what I mean." Kai smiled, grabbing his sword.
