The Magician of Sound

Chapter 218 - Killing Eru



"Teleportation!"

The next thing he realized, Eru found himself in the sky, falling at high speed.

"Kh!"

Tasha appeared in the sky and glared at Eru as she clapped her hands, creating a huge purple magic circle in the sky.

"You say that your power is to manipulate water, right? I will just simply create an environment where your water can't reach you." Tasha smiled.

"Do you think you are capable of bringing me down?" Eru roared, feeling insulted.

"I still have forty percent of my magic power," Tasha muttered to herself and started focusing on her magic. She rather showed it by the action instead of words.

Suddenly, four magic circles appeared above Eru as if they were connecting him with the sky. The black thundercloud started to gather around the area, and thunder began reverberating in one's ears.

Eru looked at the ominous black cloud along with the scary purple magic circles. Not only that, but he also tasted metal because of this sudden phenomenon.

"Don't tell me…" He realized what was going on and opened his eyes wide.

The magic circle produced a huge amount of electrical charges as they slowly gathered around Eru. Just like how electrical charges concentrate around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge in Eru's body gradually connected with a charge reaching down from the clouds and—Zap—Lightning Strike!

Of course, this was not a natural phenomenon. Everything was fueled by Tasha's Magic Power. Hence, Tasha needed to activate her Magic first.

Another humongous purple circle appeared right below the cloud, shining so brightly that almost blinded one's eyes.

'I might have borrowed nature a little bit, but the power itself is not comparable to a normal lightning strike, let alone the speed and temperature. However, it is still enough to be one of the deadliest strikes as it also contains forty percent of Kai's magic power.' Tasha gritted her teeth, feeling her magic power drained before yelling.

"Lightning God's Wrath!"

*Zap!*

The white-purplish lightning struck down, making its way toward Eru.

"No way!" Eru roared as he summoned all the water in the air to form a shield, protecting him from this ominous lightning.

"That is still useless." Tasha had no change of expression, watching Eru's last struggle.

The lightning finally struck Eru's shield, revealing its true power. The water shield was instantly broken the moment it collided with the lightning.

Eru gritted his teeth and blocked the attack with his right claw. Unfortunately, the attack was far stronger than he expected, causing him to lose his right claw.

"Gah!" Even so, he was still as stubborn as ever. He sacrificed his entire right arm just to block this attack and escaped from death.

The water elemental rose as high as possible, trying to catch him as they would submerge underwater after this.

"Is that not enough?" Tasha gritted her teeth as she aimed her bow at him.

"Little girl. Your strength is indeed powerful… Judging from the magic power alone, you might be able to match the Princess… Except, you are still too inexperienced in using your power. I will kill you with that boy in the future." Eru grinned, preparing for the attack from him.

When Tasha was about to shoot him, she suddenly noticed the movement on the ground and stopped for a while.

On the ground, Sofia already reached the water and created a blue magic circle.

"Freezing Field." Sofia also released the rest of her magic power and froze the surrounding sea along with the giant water elemental, creating the liberty tower from ice.

Michelle also didn't like how Eru defeated her this whole time and shot out four Shadow Slash.

These four slashes ran through the sand, continuing to the ice that Sofia made earlier and climbing the giant ice sculpture. It then flew like a rocket, slashing Eru and deepening his wound as one of the slashes managed to hit the wound Kai inflicted.

"Gah!" Eru spat out blood, never expecting that the ants on the ground used this chance to strike him again. They were too persistent.

Not only these two, but Kai also ran on the ice, following the trail and climbing the tower before leaping up high.

Eru saw this and turned his body around as he pointed his left claw to Kai, trying to summon the water to shoot him down.

At this time, three people attacked him at the same time.

*Bam Bam!*

Isabelle's bullets arrived first and hit the left claw. Eru screamed out of pain as he noticed the bullet hit the same target, and that place was where Kai said he could shatter it with another attack. The claw instantly became useless because it wouldn't be hard enough to block Kai's attack.

Yet, this combination attack didn't stop here. Nathan sent his water blades and cut Eru's left arm. Meanwhile, Ayaka's fire magic blasted all the particles away that would soon turn into magic, canceling his attack toward Kai.

"Tch." Eru gritted his teeth and glared at Ayaka, Isabelle, and Nathan. If they didn't interfere, he could still block Kai's attack, allowing him to have a chance.

Now that he had lost his two arms, he had only one way to stop Kai's attack. Turning his body around, he was planning to intercept Kai's attack with his back.

Kai knew that this would be the last chance to attack him and took a deep breath as he struck Eru's back with his sword. The sword slid on the surface of the shell and kept running through until it passed him. Eru thought it was his victory, but…

Suddenly, Kai flipped his body vertically and stepped on the air above him as a green magic circle appeared on the air. It was his new magic. And that magic could even send huge and heavy magical beasts flying, let alone Kai himself.

As soon as he activated his Sound Insulation magic on both ears, he activated it and launched him in the opposite direction.

"!!!" Eru tried to turn around again, albeit their distance was already too close. "I won't make it!"

With the thought in his mind, Kai slashed his neck with this Vibration Sword. Although there was resistance from the hard shell, Kai knew Eru wouldn't be able to survive this after getting reduced to this.

"I guess I lost today's match." As much as he regretted it, Eru closed his eyes and grinned. He looked at Kai and his sword that almost reached him and smiled. "Remember. If you are going to solve the riddle in her words, you must look at the future."

At the moment, Kai treated this as his last struggle, not believing until there was another talk before. He kept his target and finally sent Eru's head flying before the corpse fell into the sea.

His trouble had yet to end as Kai looked up and found Tasha was still there. It seemed that her magic power was almost empty, so he decided to flip his body once again and used the Sound Blast to launch him again to the sky, trying to catch Tasha into his embrace.

Tasha made the best smile on her tired face as she released her bow and stretched her hand, falling into his embrace.

"Seriously, you are really reckless…" Kai smiled as he took a glance at her current strength. "Still, since when have you created new magic?"

"Hehe… I am not procrastinating this whole time, you know. While you were busy with your research, I researched the Lightning Magic and arrived at this new magic." Tasha smiled. "I will be telling you the details later… So, you should also tell me anything about your new magic."

"Sure." Kai smiled. They might have a warm conversation right now, but that doesn't change the fact they are falling at the moment. Even so, Kai didn't have any change of expression as the green magic circle appeared in the air.

This was also another use of his Sound Blast. By sending the energy upward, it could lessen the impact of two people falling.

Although it needed some kind of adjustment, Kai and Tasha were still stopped by the magic circle. Using this chance, Kai created another one, not far below the current one, and leaped toward it. The scene repeated a few times as Kai slowly descended from the air as if he was walking down the stairs.

Only one word could describe this scene: Magical. Because of the force from Sound Blast, Kai never actually touched the magic circle, so he looked like stepping and leaping on the air as if a prince carrying the princess to the ground.

Tasha smiled the entire time and rested her head on his chest, feeling a bit tired after using all of her magic power. Kai didn't say anything until he landed on the ice wall that separated the beach and the city.

Putting Tasha down gently, Kai turned around and made a serious expression. Some of the people were mesmerized by that scene earlier. Michelle pouted and looked away. Ayaka chuckled because she knew Tasha deserved that one. Isabelle shook her head, wondering if Evan could actually do the same while Sofia clasped her hand and pictured the scene as if she was the one there. Even Nathan, Bryan, and Albert could only scratch their heads, saying one single word in their mind. 'Youth.'

On the other hand, some of the soldiers were too occupied with the magical beasts, only knowing that the enemy leader had died in that exchange.

Kai swept the entire battlefield. He still remembered what Eru said as it kept repeating in his mind, but he had the priority here, especially as the general of this army. He raised his hand and shouted. "Flatten them!"

"Ooh!"
