The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 85 - Emergency Mission (Part 1)

Everyone also heard it, so Michelle asked them, "What do you think? Do you want to go for another mission?"

Tasha and Ayaka instinctively looked at Kai, asking for his opinion. Kai looked at Michelle and asked, "I'm not familiar with the system, can you explain it a bit more clearly?"

"Well, this is an emergency mission to help our comrades in Prince Rupert. Unlike United Asia, the sea creatures around here are pretty active and they often attack the land. That's why we have our own armies stationed around the port city.

"Their duty is to stop the invasion of those sea creatures. It seems the situation there is not really good, so the mission might be dangerous," Michelle explained. "But the reward is usually pretty great, so I think it's worth it."

Kai pondered for a moment. "Can we retreat if we find it dangerous?"

"Yes. It's not an obligatory mission. Unlike the army, we can retreat anytime." She nodded.

"All right. Let's go there. Although we've gotten rid of these wolves with a good combination, we can still improve our teamwork. That's why I'm not going to take the risk. We'll immediately retreat if I deem it too dangerous," Kai said with a serious expression.

The others didn't have an objection to Kai's decision. They believed in Kai. They knew Kai would choose the best path for them to take.

"Ah, we need to take these crystals with us too." Michelle didn't forget about the crystal they got.

Tasha nodded and used her teleportation magic.

They teleported a few times before arriving in Prince Rupert, where Kai asked her to stop as he could pick up the sound of battle.

"A battle is ongoing ahead," Kai warned. "A huge one at that."

"That's the military base. We should place our belongings here and move that way since it is hard to move around with this big crystal." Michelle acknowledged.

"Sure. Let's head to the base," Kai said.

The four of them then disappeared from that place.

They arrived in just a few minutes. The situation was a bit chaotic as they could hear the sounds of gunfire and magic explosions around them. They immediately went toward the general's office.

"Sacred Elite Magic Academy, Lion Group." Michelle came inside the office with the others and saluted. Seeing this, Kai and the others also followed suit.

"You… Are you Michelle Graham?" The general asked. He was a middle-aged man wearing a white uniform. His red hair was messy as he was troubled with the situation.

"Yes."

"I see." The general nodded before making a serious expression. "The situation here is a mess. About ten thousand sea creatures suddenly came and began to attack. We are outnumbered by one to ten, so we're barely holding this place. Most of them are crabs and such, so it is hard to crack their shells open.

"I want the four of you to help our left flank, which is in the most favorable impression. After you destroy all of them, march together with the soldiers to aid the middle flank before surrounding the right flank." The general said. "As for the battle plan, you can ask the commander there."

"Understood." Michelle asked, "Are there any other groups that arrived here before we did?"

"The government dispatched two elite groups while there are three groups from the academy aside from yours. However, none of them has arrived, maybe in an hour or two." The general said. "Your group is the first one."

Michelle nodded. "We will go help then."

She and the others then left the room and made their way toward the left army. Each army consisted of three hundred soldiers, while the rest of the hundred were reserves.

Everyone except Michelle was surprised when they saw the actual battlefield. Around two hundred people were fighting the sea creatures with swords and the like while the rest were shooting them with guns.

The fighters didn't charge at them too deeply while the gunners were shooting like crazy. Although fighting like this was costly, they managed to keep the sea beasts at bay only because of this.

The sea beasts varied in size. Some of them were small and some of them were even two to three meters high.

"You guys wait here. I'll ask the commander about the battleplan," she said.

Kai nodded. He just arrived at this place not long ago while Michelle was famous through the base. It would be better for her to handle this like the general.

Not long after, Michelle came back with the order. "We can attack them from here. If we inflict significant damage, the army will push them back. If we can't, we should retreat and fight along with them."

Kai pondered for a while, thinking of a plan. "Ayaka and Sister will rain them with magic. Their shells seem very hard, so choose your attacks wisely. If we manage to clear the magical beasts a bit, Ayaka and I will go toward the front line and place magic bombs. Sister will cover us at that time."

He then turned to Michelle, "Can you use that slashing technique horizontally?"

"Ah, you mean my Shadow Slash?" Michelle shook her head. "No. That technique is shadow magic. Basically, it extends my shadow toward them, and because of that, I can only channel it on the ground, not send it flying."

"I see. I thought that was a good plan."

"Sorry."

"Don't mind. It's already powerful to begin with. If only I could use the Vibration Sword and increase the sharpness of my sword… Have the items arrived yet?"

"No. The professor has sent it along with the magic power equipment, but it still needs some time." Michelle shook her head.

"I see. Well, it can't be helped. I'll research other skills in the meantime." Kai sighed. "Anyway, just use that Shadow… Slash a few times to push them back. If we can match our movement with the soldiers, we should be able to finish the battle pretty quickly."

"All right."

"Last thing, what about your magic power?"

"I've used about thirty percent of my power."

"Twenty percent."'

"Fifty."

Ayaka, Michelle, and Tasha replied. The burden was on Tasha this time as she had to teleport them several times, so Kai said, "Sister, take it easy this time."

Tasha nodded. "Don't worry. I know my limit."

"With our current magic power, we should be able to handle the left and middle since I didn't find any strong monsters. As for the last one, we'll see." Kai then commanded, "Move out."

Ayaka immediately started with a bang.

"Scarlet Explosion."

Boom!

The explosion blasted the sea creatures away, making a huge entrance for Kai and Michelle. Michelle immediately took this chance to use her Shadow Slash, cutting about fifty sea creatures at once. If it didn't have a range limit, she might have been able to cut a few hundred of them with that slash alone.

Kai also stopped a bigger one and threw it toward the crowd of sea creatures. This made the people who saw it wonder how strong he was. Of course, they didn't have the luxury to ponder over the matter as they still had to defend against the sea creatures. They couldn't let their guard down.

Meanwhile, the commander furrowed her eyebrows.

"Fighters, charge in two waves. Gunners, prepare for cover fire. Make sure no friendly fires occur," the commander immediately ordered the soldiers to charge.

"Yes, Ma'am."

Kai took a deep breath and released his killing intent. He then charged toward the monsters like a beast, killing them one by one with his superhuman strength.

On the other hand, Michelle was using her dark energy to increase the sharpness of her sword. This allowed her to cut the shells of these monsters and kill them with a single swing. Ayaka continuously sent her firebirds, roasting these sea creatures one by one. As for Tasha, she drew three arrows in one second. Her lightning was very useful since it increased the piercing power of her arrows.

Seeing this, the commander saw a chance and charged together with the army. They were pushing the enemies back step by step. Once again, the people admired how powerful real magicians were. Little did they know, this group was just too powerful as two of them were S-rank magicians, one was an A-rank magician with huge firepower while the other one was a Zodiac and a freak.

The soldiers became more energetic when they saw this. They thought the time to kill all of these sea creatures finally came.

Even so, they couldn't just finish all of these creatures with their morale alone, considering how they were outnumbered by one to ten. After fighting for an hour, they only managed to kill about two thousand sea creatures. There were still around a thousand left. They even needed to fight against a few more thousand after they finished the ones in this place.

The thought alone made them sigh. This entire battle might take a few hours, so Kai tried to come up with another plan while conserving his stamina.

Because of the constant push, Ayaka could not reach her target from that place alone, so she decided to move closer. She suddenly flew with her fire wings as she started roasting them one by one, making them look tasty. Even Michelle mentioned that she wanted to eat seafood after this battle.

However, Kai had a different point of view when he saw this.

Kai suddenly thought of something crazy. He looked at his sister and shouted. "Sister. I have a plan."

"I can't electrocute them though. It's not very effective." Tasha said.

"No, no. This is a different plan." Kai shook his head. "How about teaching these sea creatures how to fly?"
