The Magician of Sound

Chapter 108 - Group Battle (Part 6)

"Anyway, Ayaka will come to your place right now and help you. I know you are striking your arrow at the same time and waiting for it to break, but I am sure our goal is to defeat the enemy group, right?"

"Alright, Teacher. Give me Ayaka's general position, and I will try to coordinate with her." Tasha nodded. 

"I want to send her to Kai, but he does not really want the help." Sanae sighed.

"Teacher, have you heard about the contract between him and that Isabelle?" Tasha asked while pulling the bow.

"Contract?" Sanae furrowed her eyebrows, confused. She had yet become a teacher when the contract thing happened, so it was normal for her not to know. "Is Kai fighting another big family like in United Asia? It seems I need to change my job and nationality again. Wait, It's not like I am going to join you guys if that happens again…"

"Ahaha, you misunderstood him, Teacher. Kai never really searched for trouble, and the contract was made a few days before you joined us." Tasha chuckled, making her miss the target. "Oops."

"What is the contract?"

"If we win today, she is not going to bother us anymore. If we lose, trouble (Isabelle) will visit us every day." Tasha shot another arrow.

"Isn't that bad? For your information, I am not paid for that, so you take care of that problem." 

"We just need to win." Tasha shrugged. "Still, this guy is surely irritating."

"Why don't you crush him to death?" She suggested.

"Crush him to death? How?"

"You are on the hill." Sanae gave a simple hint.

"Ah, I see." She came to enlightenment. "In that case, I need Ayaka to come up here."

"They must know the death of that ice element guy, but do not know Ayaka's position. I direct her to go around and climb the hill, so when that shield guy is still conscious on his back, Ayaka will reach the top with her flying ability." 

"Get it. I will teleport that guy again first." Tasha nodded. "Wait, why don't Ayaka just tell me this? Oi, girl, where is your voice?"

"I am here…A battle from before took a toll on me, sorry." Ayaka said with a hoarse voice as she had yet fully recovered from that blast. Evan only managed to heal her burn marks and broken bones. It was enough for her to move, but it was still hurt just by moving her body.

Evan could only shake his head after looking at the determination in her eyes, and let her go.

"You should rest, you know." Tasha furrowed her eyebrows.

"I still can move, so it's not a problem. Pain can be endured as long as we can win, and by defeating Nicholas, cough, our win will be assured. I will arrive in less than a minute." Ayaka said weakly.

"..." She could not say anything more to this girl. "Alright. Kai and Michelle should have no problem handling those three, so you only need to help."

"Yes." 

Tasha sighed, cutting the communication off and muttering to herself, "You stubborn girl."

"Let me step on my game then." She put her bow down before clapping her hand, creating a magic circle. The magic circle was purple instead of pink, symbolizing her using lightning magic.

"Electric Lance."

A bright purple spear was coming out of the magic circle, flying toward Nicholas. Surprisingly, just after flying for one second, a pink sphere appeared, swallowing it. 

Nicholas was confused, wondering what she was doing. He saw Tasha with a pink magic circle again, realizing it was for the sphere. That magic circle teleported the sphere five-meter above him, releasing the lightning spear it swallowed earlier, like shooting a bullet.

"Not good." He made a magic circle below his feet. "Earth- Not good, I won't make it."

The spear already reached his place, forcing him to use his shield as his only defense. The force from the attack was no joke, making him kneel before pinning him on the ground.

"Boom!"

Tasha's lightning spear exploded, leaving Nicholas to be speechless. He never expected that Tasha would be like this if she were serious, making him wonder if the previous one was only her playing with him.

It could be said the most underrated person in the Lion Group was Tasha, not Kai. She usually used her Lightning Arrow to support the team and Teleportation Magic, the only difference was how she used it.

No one had yet to see Tasha using a different technique. The only time she used a different technique would be in the first mission, striking the wolf and this was precisely what she did as a follow-up attack.

Tasha released another arrow, using it as a catalyst to draw a magic circle in the sky. 

Lightning struck forth toward Nicholas. Fortunately, his eyes did not wander after getting pinned on the ground, allowing him to this attack. "Earth Defender."

The mud raised, forming a sphere to protect Nicholas from the lightning. This sphere also functioned as a conductor, channeling the lightning to the ground.

"Crack!" 

Nicholas raised his shield as soon as he heard the cracking sound of his sphere. The lightning broke the mud wall, striking the shield before exploding.

"Boom!"

For those who focused on Nicholas, they were wondering if he was still alive or not. Unbeknownst to them, Ayaka had arrived at Tasha's position, destroying the tip of the hill to make a giant boulder for Tasha.

Tasha smiled and teleported it right above him.

When Nicholas saw this one, he could only chuckle. He glanced at his shield, that had been snapped into two by the last strike, and muttered, "It's insane. I have lost."

He closed his eyes, letting the huge boulder crush him to death.

Outside, people sucked a cold breath, thinking, 'Poor Nicholas.' 

"This… I am speechless… I really want to say this first. Poor Nicholas. From the start, he was played by Tasha Carter. 

"Firstly, he becomes a punching bag for her Lightning Arrow. Secondly, she made him restart his progress by teleporting him to the foot of the hill again and again. This is my personal opinion, but it would make me better if Tasha actually teleported to another hill, making me chase her rather than teleporting me to the start.

"However, I am wondering why Tasha does not use the last three attacks from the start? I mean, I am sure she can defeat Nicholas that way." Diego glanced at Yuki.

"Hmm, I actually don't know the reason. Even my student does not really see her using other magic that often. However, there is one thing for sure about her. She is an S rank magician." Yuki explained.

"This… Have we actually underestimated her this entire time?" Diego came to a realization. "From my information, she killed many magical beasts by sending them to the sky, teaching the sea creatures how to fly… or that's what the soldiers told me. After that, she only used her arrows, killing them one by one.

"That ability alone is scary, and somehow, I can picture her sending people like that. Unless we have the ability to fly, we would have a nightmare for the rest of our life… Literally, since we would only have a few seconds in our life.

"Luckily, this time, there is a border limit up to a few hundred meters in the sky, not allowing her to use this ability. 

"Anyway, those abilities might hinder us from realizing the fact that she is an S rank magician with Lightning and Space magic. In fact, rather than Michelle Graham or Kai Carter, the one that we need to wary the most would be her." Diego explained his thought, shocking the entire room.

The top groups inside also noticed this before he explained. Michelle aside, they had yet to see the real power of an unorthodox Sound Magician with their own eyes, so they could not judge it too early. After all, Kai and Tasha were a family. They might even try to investigate Carter Family after this as this family might rise to become another prominent family with these two alone.

Fortunately, Kai was not originally from here. This would hide the fact that Tasha was only his step-sister. If they knew about it, they would not think that highly of this Kai Carter.

"Anyway, Teacher. With this, I could say that the defeat of Eagle Group is guaranteed, right?" Diego paused a bit, trying to say without shooting the Eagle Group down. "I mean, they have lost four of their members, leaving only Isabelle Fisher. 

"I know her reputation as the number one shooter in this academy, but I still doubt she can turn the situation around. It's not that they are weak, their opponent is just too strong. They have two S rank magicians, one unorthodox magician, and the famous healer, Evan Young. It can be said this team will shake the group ranking in the near future." Diego said.

"I really want to say yes, but I will refrain myself as a teacher. I can only say that as long as you don't give up, the possibility will never reach 0%. Which team would win? We would not know before all the opponent team's heads flew off." She shook her head. "Though I still need to give a thumbs up to Kudo Ayaka."

"!!!" Diego realized he forgot this girl because of the hype. All of this would not happen if Ayaka failed to kill Tommy. And the way she sacrificed herself… could only be described in one word… scary.

"Hehe… Don't underestimate us, women. We can tolerate most of the things, but if you touch our reverse scale… I don't think I need to say anymore." She smirked.
