The Magician of Sound

Chapter 304 - Becoming The Hunter Again



*Bang!*

The bullet was shot as a fist-size hole appeared on the ape's neck. The ape spat out blood and fell down, dying.

Blood was dripping out of the hole, dying the slightly wet dirt red. Evan wanted to give a thumb up to Isabelle, but his body lost all of his strength as he fell down following the ape.

'How many ribs that attack broke?' Evan thought, not having enough power to even talk. Even so, his water bubble already appeared, covering his body.

Still, they were not out of danger yet. The magical beasts were still approaching at fast speed and would arrive here in a moment, but none of them could move right now.

*Cry!*

Evan gritted his teeth and glanced at the sky, finding the eagle dive.

It seemed the eagle tried to attack him first because he killed the ape.

However, Isabelle suddenly appeared and waved her hand toward the eagle from the side.

"!!!" Evan slightly widened his eyes. "H…ow…?"

Isabelle ignored it and covered her hand with her wind. When it clashed with the eagle's wind barrier, they canceled each other, allowing her hand to travel past the barrier and hit the eagle.

"Ku?" The eagle never expected this to happen and stared at Isabelle as he was blown away.

She then turned around and lowered her body to grab her weapon before taking out another one. "I don't know why as well. There must be something different in your magic because the effect was stronger than that of two days ago."

"I…" Evan looked at his body and sighed. Despite this, he still couldn't move at all as there were too many things he needed to heal inside his body.

"You are a man, I know that. If not because of you, I would die. You could escape earlier, but you chose to bring me out of that dangerous situation and risked your life like this… Thank you." Isabelle lowered her head and kissed him on the lips.

She didn't mind the taste of the blood. All she wanted to convey was her love, knowing that Evan would be the perfect one for her.

Evan stared at her for a few seconds as if he wanted to say something.

Seeing the water bubble had yet to pop out, she understood that it would still protect her during this fight.

She smiled and rose from the ground, turning around and marking all the magical beasts she could find.

"There are approximately forty-nine magical beasts, including the eagle in the sky." Isabelle raised her weapon as a magic circle appeared and pulled the black handle, removing the used shell. "If you have enough control, you are able to do this without your hand, you know.

"Well, just lay down there and relax. I will show these magical beasts that their only fate is to die." Her weapons were on the waist as she carried them like carrying pistols. "I will show you what I have been training during this period… And since you want to learn how to use a pistol, you might want to watch my movement because I will show you how to shoot a pistol… Using a sniper rifle of course."

A smile appeared on her face as she measured their distance.

"There are still two hundred meters, one minute to reach here. I should be able to kill some." Isabelle sat down and used both her feet as the support before aiming both weapons toward the monsters.

*Bang Bang!*

Two bullets pierced a head each. Isabelle purposely targeted the bigger one in the front, so they could fall down and hinder the magical beasts behind them.

*Roar!*

A series of roars echoed, but Isabelle thought nothing and shot a few more rounds.

As she planned, the beasts started stumbling, stopping a portion of the magical beasts.

She kept doing it until the eagle found he would be at a disadvantage the moment Isabelle killed all those magical beasts; hence, he dove again, trying to kill Evan. This might be the only thing to get her attention.

Little did he know Isabelle actually waited for this moment. As soon as he reached the distance, a magic circle appeared in front of Isabelle's right weapon. She spun around and aimed at the eagle.

"Plasma Wind!"

The eagle felt confident with his barrier because he had deflected all the bullets from her. Although the distance wasn't that great, he would probably get pushed back a little bit, but still had the chance to kill Evan.

Due to that, it kept looking at Evan.

Isabelle smiled. This shot was a few small tornadoes compressed into one bullet, so the piercing power was far greater than a normal bullet.

The bird released another wind barrier to deflect it again while halting his movement, so the deflect would go downward. Unbeknownst to him, the bullet this time was special.

Not only the piercing power, but the compressed wind also disrupted the wind flow by expanding again, neutralizing the wind from the eagle. The real bullet then hit the eagle's body, relatively close to his wing.

"Tch. The wind was stronger than I expected, so it hit the joint of the wing instead of its head. I should have shot him with this bullet earlier instead of thinking it was scared and escaped."

The eagle listened to Isabelle as it lost its balance, hit the ground with its head, and rolled a few times before stopping with a broken neck.

Its original purpose was to hit Evan, so the momentum was still great, causing all those damages. At the same time, Isabelle released all the hatred she had from earlier and walked toward the eagle, pointing her sniper to his head.

*Roar!*

A wolf suddenly leaped toward her, trying to prevent her from killing the eagle. As expected from the fastest magical beast that chased them.

"Belle!" Evan shouted. It seemed he also experienced what Isabelle earlier said about his healing magic becoming more effective. He could already shout after only two minutes. Maybe in another minute, he would be able to move and help Isabelle.

"Don't worry." Isabelle smiled as she raised her other weapon. The wolf only found one thing. The gun barrel was inside his mouth. "I said it earlier. You would see me handling this weapon like a pistol."

He was supposed to bite Isabelle, but a second later, he was in a life threatening situation. And Isabelle didn't let this chance go. Her pose was like that of a cowboy, trying to shoot two enemies in the opposite direction at the same time.

She pulled both triggers.

*Bang!*

The wolf had his head obliterated by the bullet, while the eagle managed to slightly shift his body a little, trying to stay alive in every way possible. Though, it was best if the shot earlier killed him because Isabelle was very dangerous right now.

She glanced at the eagle, and the four wind balls blew the eagle deep to the ground. The mud even started sinking.

The eagle released its wind again to cancel out this wind attack from Isabelle, but she was one step ahead, pointing her weapon at the eagle's head.

"You have truly pushed us this far. It's time for you to die like that ape over there." Isabelle snorted and released another bullet.

The fleshes and blood were splattered, but there was not a single change of expression on her face. The smell of blood didn't, and the disturbing sight didn't even make her flinch.

She simply turned around and glared at the incoming magical beasts. There were approximately thirty beasts remaining, and the distance didn't allow her to snipe them again. Hence, she started carrying the snipers on the side in cowboy style.

Evan struggled to turn his head but somehow succeeded. He looked at Isabelle leaping to the front, confronting all the remaining beasts.

"It's time for the hunter to be hunted!"

Isabelle started killing the magical beasts. She leaped, shot, leaped again, and shot again.

Evan was impressed by how she toyed with the magical beasts. Of course, he understood most of the reason she could do something like that was due to her wind power, but it was still an amazing sight to behold.

The shooting sounds kept going for another one minute until Isabelle finished all the monsters and returned to Evan.

Evan closed his eyes for a second and checked his body. And as expected, he managed to heal most of the broken bones. He only needed to fix a few internal injuries before he could move again. This was insane.

"How are you doing?" Isabelle asked. "Should I move your body so you can lean on a tree instead?"

"Probably not. It still hurts, so I will lay down like this for a while." Evan nodded.

Isabelle nodded and finally dropped her weapon while checking their surroundings to make sure they were safe.

Unlike the previous time, she didn't want to provoke any magical beasts for the time being and proceeded to grab all the staff that was scattered due to Evan falling.

"We escaped death this time. To think I underestimated the magical beasts and thought it escaped." Isabelle gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She looked deeply regretting her choice earlier.

"It was my fault as well. We should move our position first before eating." Evan sighed.

"Nevertheless, I want to thank you for saving me even though you could save yourself and didn't gamble like this." Isabelle smiled and kissed him again. "In the face of death, your loved one might even abandon or sacrifice you, my dad said. And those who don't are hard to come by and ask me to treasure them well.

"I wonder why would someone like you love me…" Isabelle was curious about the reason and when he actually started falling in love with her.

Evan smiled and closed his eyes.
