The Magician of Sound

In the middle army,

Tasha had been shooting her arrows nonstop while striking down the blue light coming from the snail. She had yet to make another move after using the Lightning Storm on the snail. The magic didn't go through the shell as the snail instantly went inside its house. After being blocked by the shell, the lightning continued rampaging around and killed a few magical beasts in the area.

In an instant, a thought arose in her. It immediately made Tasha turn decisive. She was not the kind of person who fought unnecessary battles because of Kai's influence. Instead, she had already imagined the situation when she faced the snail, ignoring instead of focusing. 

Fighting an impossible to beat opponent would only drain one's magic power. Rather than focusing on it, she chose to wait until the army finished the other magical beasts before attacking it together… or that was she thought until a huge blue ball appeared above the snail.

"What is that?!" Tasha felt something different. She pointed her hand again, creating a lance and shooting it toward the ball before it could launch. 

"Electric Lance!"

The lightning lance pierced through the air and made its way toward the blue ball. Tasha's aim was to destroy the ball and created a huge explosion to kill the snail and other magical beasts nearby. Yet, the reality moved differently than the picture on her mind.

As soon as the Electric Lance touched the blue ball, it was absorbed instead of destroying the ball.

"What?!" Tasha's eyes opened widely as she couldn't believe what just happened. She didn't know it was just a huge chump of energy. By absorbing the Electric Lance, the ball suddenly contained Lightning Element. If she shot it right after the snail released the ball rather than in the creating process, she would be able to destroy it. 

Unfortunately, Tasha didn't have the leeway to test that. The lightning started sparking around the edge as the snail shot the ball. 

"This is not good." Tasha narrowed her eyes, observing the ball that would soon land on the army. "They are going to be obliterated!"

Noticing the emergency of this situation, Tasha shifted her bow, snapped her finger, and teleported right above the army. 

Just like Tasha, Jack also figured this ball out and quickly shouted. "It's not good fellas. We need to retreat as quickly as possible if you don't want to die!"

In the instant he finished his speech, Tasha appeared above the army and clasped her hand, creating a pink magic circle in the air.

Even though she was still falling, it didn't take away even a little portion of her focus. A pink magic sphere rose from inside the magic circle, creating the same sphere as the magic she used in the group battle. 

"Spatial Lock!"

Just like the blue ball absorbing her lightning, the pink sphere acted like slime and swallowed the blue ball completely.

"Kh!" Tasha never expected to get a huge resistance from the blue ball. Even after swallowing it, the blue ball tried to absorb her space magic.

Another magic circle appeared and teleported the blue ball right above the snail. "Teleportation." 

Tasha pulled her bow, aiming at her Spatial Lock before she finally landed on the ground.

"Lightning Piercer."

The arrow flew like a bullet, piercing the pink sphere. Surprisingly, the sphere that could contain a huge lump of energy popped out like a balloon.

After losing its momentum, the blue ball slowly descended, making the snail tremble in fear. It sneaked inside its house to protect itself from the ball.

Unfortunately, the other magical beasts didn't have the capability to think of that action. As soon as the blue ball touched the snail's shell, it created a huge explosion, engulfing the snail and other magical beasts. 

"Boom!"

"What is that?" Jack snarled with a complicated expression. He turned around, finding Tasha a few meters behind him. "Is that thing going to descend upon us earlier?"

"Yeah." Tasha nodded before looking at the after-effect of the explosion. She climbed a little tower nearby just to check if the snail was dead or not.

Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, the snail didn't die, but it was still covered with wounds. Even its shell had some broken parts scattering around the area.

"Commander Jack, I need to strike at the snail before it could rise again," Tasha shouted as she created another magic circle to teleport her. 

"O-oh?!" Jack was stunned for a second and turned around only to see an empty air.

Tasha already appeared in the middle of the enemy, surrounded by magical beasts. A few magical beasts noticed her presence and charged at her, but Tasha simply clapped her hand to make another teleportation magic.

"Teleportation!"

A few magical beasts were swallowed together with the snail before appearing two kilometers in the sky. The first thing that came into view was a broken shelled snail, falling at high speed. Next, she caught around ten magical beasts that penetrated the cloud and fell together with the snail.

After confirming the falling with both eyes, Tasha teleported herself out of the enemy territory. She still needed to confirm the snail's death, so she only teleported herself to a high building around the area and hid.

It would seem the snail had yet to give as it raised both of its eyes while creating a blue light between its eyes. The snail shot right to the ground it would fall onto.

"Boom!"

The dust kicked in and rose from the ground, making it hard to discern what happened to the snail.

"What?!" Tasha's sharp eyes could barely see behind the dust, but she could confirm that the snail was safe. "That was insane… Is this what it means to be an intelligent A rank magical beast?"

Although she could barely see the process, she could figure what just happened in that instant. She hid behind the wall, crossed her hands, and thought, 'The snail used that big explosion to give a force to knock it back to the sky. However, it fell too fast, so the explosion only used to soften the impact. Still… the speed was too fast, together with the explosion, it should be half-dead. This is the perfect time to kill it.'

Upon realizing the opportunity, Tasha pulled her bow, showed herself from behind the wall, and shot the arrow to the sky. 

"Lightning Storm."

The arrow became the catalyst to create a magic circle in the sky before a bolt of lightning struck forth. 

The snail noticed and looked up with its tattered body. It created another blue light between its eyes, trying to destroy the lightning or the magic circle.

Tasha obviously wouldn't let it. She aimed her bow toward the snail and released two arrows.

"Lightning Piercer."

With the snail's current state, it still could sense the incoming arrows, but its physical ability didn't let it react in time.

The two arrows pierced both eyes as the snail trembled. It shot out the blue light between the eyes toward the sky, but with the loss of both eyes, it missed the target, allowing Tasha's lightning struck at him.

"Boom!"

The snail wasn't protected by its shell anymore because it had been shattered here and there. Tasha's lightning exploded and swallowed the snail. 

Letting out a loud dying shrill, the snail finally died.

"Control." Tasha released a few arrows toward the snails again. "Lightning Piercer."

Kai taught her not to lower her guard to the dying enemies, especially the intelligent one. After all, they might even fake their death, no matter if they were beasts or humans. 

She remembered a few years ago. There was one enemy that pretended to be dead. Luckily, Kai separated everyone's heads to make sure they were dead, so the enemy couldn't retaliate.

He didn't separate their heads just to show her, especially with humans. There were many cases that human technology could even bring someone dead alive, as long as it didn't pass a certain amount of time. Even with their beating heart stopped, Kai still did such a meticulous job. Tasha obviously wouldn't let anything escape, especially this snail. It could even survive a two-kilometer free fall, let alone faking its own death.

"Fu." After checking the snail really died, Tasha took a deep breath, feeling relieved. "Fortunately, I am here instead of Michelle. Looking at how incompatible they are, there will be many soldiers that die in the process before Michelle could kill it." 

"Roar Roar Roar!"

The magical beasts spotted her, and a few of them changed their directions toward her.

"Oops. Time to go!" Tasha shrugged and teleported herself back to the army. She looked at Jack and shouted, "Commander Jack, that intelligent A rank magical beast has died. We can start routing the magical beasts without any worries."

Jack glanced at Tasha before shouting. "Do you hear it, guys? Our biggest threat has disappeared. It's time we push them back and show the pride of Cuba Military Base!"

"Yes, Sir!" The shouts from men and women soldiers echoed through the battlefield, raising their morale. 

Jack nodded and sent a report to the radio. "This is Jack, we have killed the special magical beast. Over."

"I have also killed the special magical beast in my place," Marsha interjected while looking at the giant crabs that had been shattered by her brutal strength. "We will have a delicious crab for tonight's dinner. That's why we need to survive."

"Same here. Though we still need to deal with three other beasts," Kai said. "The situation is a bit chaotic but still under control."

"I have sent one hundred fighters and one hundred gunners to the left army. They are going to arrive in the next fifteen minutes," Marsha said with a relieved tone.

"Good work all of you." General Sanders could only say this as he was still occupied with the flying beast.
