The Magician of Sound Chapter 217: Overturns the Situation

“Boom Boom Boom!”

The wind blades exploded as if it hit something. Everyone thought it landed on the Protector, but when the particles settled down, they realized a wall of water blocking the three attacks.

Kai smiled, looking at the old man above the wall. “You are late, Sir.”

“I rushed here, alright? If I didn’t have any preparation and proceeded with the normal route, I wouldn’t arrive this fast.” Nathan shrugged as he looked at the two thousand soldiers falling to the ground with their parachutes.

“Bryan, Albert. After rearranging the soldiers, switch with the girls and take care of that water thingy.” Nathan shouted.

“Understood.”

Meanwhile, Kai took a step back, creating a distance between him and the Protector.

Nathan arrived beside him and asked. “How do you feel?”

“I still can handle this, and I need to see this battle to a proper conclusion. I shall assist you in fighting him.”

“Alright. Don’t push yourself too much… Defeating him sounds nice, but my priority is to save you and Miami.” Nathan nodded. “If you push him to the corner, it might become troublesome.”

“I understand.” Kai nodded while clenching the only sword he had with two hands.

“I will be the main.” As soon as Nathan said so, he leaped toward Eru while taking out his two weapons.

As Eru was about to knock the weapon away, he suddenly raised his claw to block an attack from Nathan, who was still a few meters away from him.

*Bam!* A gunshot sound echoed, followed by the clicking sound of metal.

It turned out that Nathan’s weapons were a sword and a pistol. He waved his right hand to get a good cut on the wound Kai’s inflicted earlier, only to find Eru protecting that area heavily.

Nathan observed his movement, halted his step, and raised his left hand, shooting the pistol.

*Bam!*

The bullet flew through the gap between the claw and pierced the wound on his body. Eru spat out blood as he was surprised with this.

Nathan then glanced at Isabelle, telling her how she needed to do it. Whether it was her trust in Kai or the fact that she enjoyed being support, Isabelle never shot like Nathan, targeting the already existing wounds. Instead, she had been helping him this whole time.

The old man realized this in a single glance of Eru’s body and told her that no matter her partner was, she should always go on the offensive. Nathan had high hope of her firepower, so it was better to teach her this early, or so he thought.

Isabelle gulped down and took a deep breath. It wasn’t like she didn’t want to do it. It was just she thought Kai would be angry if she did that. After all, Kai had been fighting this Eru for a long time.

Neither Kai and Isabelle actually grabbed each other’s personality. Isabelle thought so while Kai was still waiting for her shots. Yet, this was normal because they were not in the same group.

Seeing the approval from Nathan, Isabelle changed her target and aimed at more deadly spots.

Kai joined the attack and appeared right beside Eru. He swung his sword toward the joint of the claw, forcing Eru to leap to the side.

At the same time, the ice started spreading on the ground, moving toward Eru at high speed and freezing his feet.

Eru noticed this and sent a strike toward the ice to break it before another two pairs of attacks coming toward him.

“Shadow Slash!”

Four slashes ran through the ground and struck at his feet. Due to the fact that he had been injured all over by Kai, these four slashes managed to cut his two legs, reducing it from the original ten to seven.

When he turned around, he found Michelle with her shadow standing next to each other. And with the ice attack, she could see Sofia from earlier. If these two joined this battle because there were two new people keeping his water elemental at bay, the last girl should also come. Yet, there was no such person in his vision.

Suddenly, Kai and Nathan leaped back, trying to not break their silence before a huge red magic circle appeared beneath Eru.

“!!!” Eru looked around and found the girl in the sky, activating her magic. “Tch!”

“Scarlet Explosion!”

*Boom!* A huge explosion swallowed Eru completely. Ayaka dared to use this magic because she had checked that there was no soldier nearby.

Kai used this chance to rush toward Eru to take advantage of the smoke as his cover.

At the same time, Eru thought the same and released his attack once again. It was the omnidirectional water blades attack. Not only it tried to attack Kai, but it also blew away the smoke produced by the explosion.

Looking at the water blade, Nathan appeared right in front of Kai, creating a wall of water. As if it made the same surface, the water blade ran on the water wall and shot out to the sky.

Kai used this chance to get closer to Eru and slashed his sword.

Nathan didn’t let Eru react by shooting his gun a few times, specifically toward his wounded areas. The same applied to Isabelle. She released another two shots from the wall.

Eru frowned, waved his left claw to block two bullets while having his other hand to stop Kai.

Unfortunately, he didn’t realize the detail of Isabelle’s shots. The moment he blocked it with his left claw, he suddenly heard a cracking sound.

*Crack!* Without a doubt, the sound came from the shell of his claw. He knew that Isabelle shot twice, but he didn’t realize that the bullets would actually hit the same places simultaneously, making a huge crack in his shell.

Kai smirked as he struck at that place again and deepened the crack.

“D*mn!” Eru cursed as he finally struck Kai with his other hand, only to find himself already leaving his attack range.

“I will be able to destroy that claw with another attack,” Kai informed.

Nathan nodded after getting impressed by the marksmanship. Isabelle targeted very specific spots where Kai’s sword penetrated deeper. Using that place as her advantage, she finally managed to break his defense.

Kai utilized that and inflicted a deeper wound.

Nathan started creating his strategy in his mind and decided to join the last strive.

Judging at this development, Kai leaped again, facing Eru with his sword. They traded a few blows, and Kai specifically targeted his left side because of the claw.

Eru gritted his teeth and started dodging and parrying with his right claw instead of his left claw. Nathan, Michelle, and Ayaka also joined, aiming at his left hand. If they could take his left hand at this moment, their victory would be nothing but assured.

With that thought in mind, Eru was overwhelmed by all of these attacks and sent another omnidirectional water attack, trying to blow everyone away.

Michelle and Ayaka realized this and immediately retreated a few steps before Sofia’s ice emerged in front of them, creating a huge ice wall that redirected the water attack to the air like how Nathan handled it previously.

They glanced at Sofia and nodded, thanking her for the effort before moving again. On the other hand, Nathan was lucky because this attack couldn’t hit him. As for Kai… he simply destroyed the attack with his brute strength.

*Boom Boom Boom!* A series of explosions came from the side. The magical beasts also started getting suppressed by the armies while Albert and Bryan somehow managed to stop the water elemental from rampaging for the time being.

Kai pumped his fist, knowing that the situation would soon come to close.

Meanwhile, Eru was still searching for a way to overturn the situation, only to find nothing. Getting cornered like this, the reinforcement that seemed to be stronger than an average soldier, and the fact that no one in the main party had yet to die in this battle already made him so concerned.

“It’s time for you to die.” Kai roared as he kept attacking with the others. The joy of bringing someone down who almost killed you multiple times was intense, and this was what Kai experienced right now.

Eru frowned and looked at his surroundings, realizing that the situation was not in his favor anymore. If he continued this battle, he would die. Hence, Eru took a hard step in his life and decided to retreat by using these magical beasts as his shield.

“Roar Roar!”

The magical beasts heard his order and quickly changed their movement, surrounding Eru as a meat shield.

“This is not good!” Kai and Nathan noticed that nothing good came if Eru succeeded in escaping.

“Hold him back!” Nathan ordered as he released another three crescent water blades, blasting many magical beasts to open the path for Kai.

However, Eru almost reached the water. As soon as he submerged, neither Kai nor Nathan could chase him anymore.

Kai looked left and right, wondering whether they had another card to use to prevent Eru from escaping.

“Haha! I will leave for today. Expect me to get my revenge in the next battle.” Eru laughed as if he had already won.

It was at this moment, a certain woman appeared right above Eru and summoned a magic circle right below his feet. She said, “You can escape as long as you reach the water, right? Isn’t the solution simple? I just need to teleport you to the sky. I wonder if a Protector will be mincemeat if I teleport them to the sky…”

The woman was none other than Tasha. She activated her magic circle and smirked evilly. “Teleportation!”
