The Magician of Sound Chapter 536: Clash

“I will show you the depth of true magic.” 

The mermaid princess lifted her hand as her staff started glowing. 

“Did you smell something?”

“Huh?” 

“What are you talking about?”

The soldiers suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable as they began to talk among themselves. 

If not for the fact they weren’t moving, they would have noticed the difference the moment the mermaid princess started her magic. 

Kai, who had a better angle from the air, noticed what was happening and looked down, specifically at the ground. 

Many soldiers noticed Kai’s gesture and followed his line of sight and found the dirt they stepped on had turned into mud. 

“What is this?”

“Mud?”

“No. Is this water?!” 

The soldiers raised their feet in succession to check the sudden appearance of the mud. They were confused because they never expected the ground would turn into mud in an instant. 

Even those from above the walls stopped attacking the Magical Beasts because of the same surprise.

“What is happening?”

Kai realized what happened as water flow filled his ears as he looked at the mermaid princess. “You!” 

“It’s too late. You can’t do anything.” The princess clutched her hand before the water began to rise from the ground, making huge but shallow ponds everywhere.

“What is this?”

“Water?!” 

Unfortunately for the soldiers who were still in shock, the princess did another thing to impress them. She gathered all the muddy water hidden inside the ground and formed a brown-colored water elemental. It had two human hands, a muscular body, and an elephant head. 

Its bottom was a circle where the water gathered. Still, the elemental alone reached as high as two hundred meters.

“Let me see whether you have the strength to do something like this…” The princess smirked and looked up, staring at all those flying jets. 

The elemental suddenly opened its arms wide as if trying to embrace the fighter jets. 

All the jets quickly turned to the left, right or even upward, trying to avoid this colossal elemental. Unfortunately, one of them couldn’t escape and got swallowed by the water before exploding. 

Boom. 

“…” Kai gritted his teeth, knowing that the mermaid princess tried to weaken their morale. He thought for a moment and raised his sword, waving it horizontally. “Sonokinetic Blade.”

The Sound Wave that gathered around his sword flew straight at the elemental’s stomach where he planned to destroy it in one go to gain back the momentum.

However, the princess already knew his plan, so the elemental clasped its hand before a giant sword made of water extended from its body. 

The elemental swung it down and struck the Sound Wave, resulting in a powerful shock wave that shook the entire battlefield. 

Boom.

The shock wave woke everyone up from their surprise as they saw the giant sword had been cut. However, what Kai cared about was the fact that he couldn’t even penetrate the sword. 

‘Is this really the difference between me and her?’ Kai clenched his teeth, knowing that this situation was pretty bad for him.

Knowing that he couldn’t raise the morale with that attack, Kai raised his sword and shouted while using his Magic to amplify his voice. “Take a look at your surroundings. Who’s beside you?!” 

The soldiers’ bodies shook as that shout made them realize they were still on the battlefield. They looked at each other as a flame was ignited inside their heart. 

It was clear what to say in this situation and there was a sense of union between them and those around them. They all shouted in unison. 

“Our Comrade!” 

“Who’s behind you?!”

“Our Family!” 

“Who’s in front of us?!”

“Our Enemy!”

The soldiers already knew what to say. And Kai took advantage of this to show another spectacular thing to raise their morale. 

“If you don’t know what to do, look at my back! Keep looking at my back because… I will always be in front of you!” Kai suddenly leaped toward the mermaid princess. 

The water sword had recovered as the elemental tried to slam him down to the ground. 

“Sonokinetic Blade.” Kai waved his sword again and sent the powerful Sound Wave, blasting the water sword. After that, he accelerated using his Sound Blast to arrive in front of the princess. 

He struck the princess without hesitation. 

Clink. 

A high-pitched sound echoed on the battlefield as all of them knew that Kai was the first one to make a move. 

As he said, if they didn’t know what to do, they only needed to look at his back. Kai would always be in the front because he would lead them to the very end. 

“If such a monster comes to our base, what will happen to our families? What will happen to those we have sworn to protect. This is the battlefield to protect what we want to protect. And there is only one thing that we need to say!”

The soldiers raised their weapons as their expressions turned serious. 

However, those who led the soldiers actually understood the hidden meaning in Kai’s last sentence. That sentence was originally for them. 

Sensing what they needed to do, all the Generals quickly shouted, “Onward!”

“Onward!”

They called for the same order in succession as they also ran forward, marching toward all the Magical Beasts. 

The soldiers who saw them instinctively followed right after.

“Move!” 

“Go go go!”

“Kill those beasts!”

The soldiers became energetic again as all 150,000 soldiers marched forward, heading straight to those Magical Beasts. 

The gunners also recovered from their shock, supporting the fighters from above. 

Boom.

Boom.

Boom. 

Explosions echoed in their ears as the magical beasts got shot down one by one. 

However, the princess had yet to lose her cool. She simply stared at Kai with a smile. “So, this is your move… It’s interesting, but it’s not enough.”

“You can say that after defeating me.” Kai snorted and waved his blades a few times. 

The princess dealt with all those attacks effortlessly as a series of clicking sounds echoed. They both tried to assess each other’s strengths to know what they needed to do. 

Suddenly, another series of explosions occurred. Everyone thought it came from the tanks that just released another wave of attacks, but they soon realized that the sounds only came from their left. 

Even Kai was alarmed by this sound and couldn’t help but take a peek at what happened. 

He saw the tanks flipped while being engulfed by fire. On top of one tank appeared a shark licking his teeth. Raising his head, his eyes intertwined with Theo as he looked around as if trying to find another target. 

“Ho? Do you think you can afford to look away when fighting me? I am not as good as you in close combat, but this is my territory!” The princess snapped her finger as the giant water sword burst out and dropped on top of them. 

Before drenching them, the water formed another shape. 

Multiple chains began to fill the space above them as the chains flew straight to him. 

Kai’s expression turned serious as he waved his sword again, trying to take down all these chains.

“Sonokinetic Blade.”

Bam.

The clash should disperse the water, but the princess somehow managed to keep them in one place. Although the chains had been reduced to three from five chains, Kai still needed to take on these three without enough time to use another Sonokinetic Blade.

“Not good.”
