*BWUUUOOOOOHHHHH!!!!!
Like a sound that breaks the silence of the night, signaling the arrival of destruction and unwavering courage.
But what occupied Milton and his Class A coalition's minds was not fear or admiration; instead, they pondered, "Who has enough time to study the Bard spell faction?"
The Bard spell faction was a spell faction that delved into the manipulation of mana into musical instruments. The sound produced by mana could provide buffs to allies and debuffs to enemies. However, to master the Bard spell faction, a mage had to be proficient in playing a real musical instrument. Sometimes, a mage even had to bring the actual instrument into battle because the Bard spell faction required significant concentration and focus. Unfortunately, amidst the chaotic conditions of warfare, such concentration and focus were hard to come by.
Thus, mages who studied the Bard spell faction, especially Level 1 Constellation Mages, were exceedingly rare. Most of them merely used the Bard spell faction to liven up parties or entertain friends.
Milton and the others turned to see a fading illusory trumpet emanating from the mouth of a bespectacled man. The man appeared nerdy with slicked-back hair and a complexion untouched by the sun.
That man was Dony.
Simultaneously with Dony's appearance, all the other students of Class A15 arrived beside him. Artur, standing at the forefront, raised his sword and shouted, "ROBERT, WE HAVE ARRIVED!!! SORRY FOR KEEPING YOU WAITING FOR SO LONG! WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!!!"
Artur's cry was met with the rest of the Class A15 students joining in.
"FOR ROBERT!!!"
"FOR ROBERT!!!"
"FOR ROBERT!!!"
"FOR ROBERT!!!"
"FOR ROBERT!!!"
The resounding cheers reached Robert's ears, trembling the world. With his weary eyes and trembling body, Robert turned around, seeing all his classmates from Class A15 standing in formation, ready to fight for him.
For the first time, Robert couldn't hold back his tears, and with a hoarse voice, he said, "You've made my hero sacrifices in vain," a smile cracked on his bloodied lips.
Artur could see Robert from where he stood, and without needing to hear his voice, he knew what Robert was saying. He simply smiled and glared fiercely at their enemies, saying, "Milton, the coward! Yin, the hypocrite! Prepare yourselves because Class A15 has arrived!!!"
"YEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
Milton snorted and glanced at Sharad and Riley, "Can you handle them?"
"Easy!" Riley nodded.
"Everything will be over before you can blink. They came here just to die," Sharad scoffed.
The two of them returned to their respective classes and led their troops out of the circle. With a soaring aura of bloodlust, Riley and Sharad, along with their respective forces, swiftly advanced towards Artur and the others.
However, before they could get close, two opposing forces blocked their path.
"Ah... my old friend, where are you going? Why don't you stay with me for a moment to reminisce about our old stories?" Awni smiled at Riley.
"Hey, monkey face, you better stay there and not meddle, or I'll rip off your two testicles!" Kira said with a sadistic look in her eyes.
"Grrr... Kira Rangkuti, Awni Mahdavi, are you both really determined to oppose our coalition and support Class A15?!" Sharad exclaimed.
"You always state the obvious. Why doesn't your brain ever evolve?" Kira mocked.
"YOOUUUU!!! Attack!!!!"
Simultaneously, the two forces clashed, and hundreds of spells were unleashed. Kira, with her Sand spell faction, created a sand carpet beneath her feet and glided into the midst of the enemy. The two swords in her hands danced like a shawl, tearing apart the enemies around her. She continued to push forward, wreaking havoc among the enemy forces until her advance was halted by Sharad.
Awni refused to be outdone, using his Dark spell faction as a nightmare-inducing specialty. He was able to injure his enemies simply by stabbing their shadows. When cornered, Awni would hide within the enemy's shadow, only to reemerge and strike from behind. His unpredictable attacking tactics resulted in many enemy soldiers meeting their end by the tip of his scimitar.
Artur saw that the path for him and the other Class A15 students had been cleared by Kira and Awni. It was time for them to advance and join the fight.
Lowering his sword, Artur shouted, "ATTACK!!!"
Like a tsunami, the Class A15 students surged forward at a tremendous speed, even utilizing [Reinforce Speed] to enhance their speed. Milton looked at this with a heart filled with frustration. How dare the Class A15 students, numbering less than 50, launch an attack on his forces of 300.
"Yin, do you want me to step forward and hold them off?" Xia said with a mocking expression.
"Xia, if you're feeling generous, I would be delighted if you did," Yin replied, ignoring Xia's taunts.
Xia snorted and advanced, leading her fellow classmates. She wanted to finish this battle as quickly as possible before she was completely used by Yin.
However, before she and her classmates could move any further, another group of people emerged from the other side. They were led by a beautiful woman with long white hair, resembling snow curtains.
"ZILYA VALYA!!!!" Xia exclaimed with a face full of resentment.
Their previous fight had ended in a draw, but Xia knew that Zilya hadn't taken it seriously. It made her feel underestimated by someone she considered a rival. Xia longed to fight Zilya again, but this time, she would face her with the intention to kill.
"Zilya, why are you here? I hope you're not foolish enough to meddle in this matter! If not, don't blame me!" Yin furrowed her brow, speaking in a threatening tone.
Zilya simply smiled casually and said, "I'm here just to watch. I don't want to get involved in any hypocrisy you're engaging in. But unfortunately, I can't stay idle if any of you attack me," her gaze flickered challengingly towards Xia.
"Xia, don't fall for her words!"
But before Yin's words could reach her ears, Xia had already lunged towards Zilya. Her other classmates could do nothing but follow their leader.
"ZILYAAA!!!!" Xia shouted, her eyes burning with intensity.
Another fierce battle erupted as Zilya, with her Ice spell faction, faced Xia's onslaught fueled by her Insect spell faction. Their battle was far more intense than before, with both women unleashing their signature spells and exchanging blows.
Milton glanced at Yin, who was frozen with gritted teeth. Yin was furious because Xia didn't listen to his orders. If they weren't from the same family, Yin would have surely punished Xia mercilessly.
Milton snorted, "You truly are unreliable."
With his classmates by his side, Milton advanced to confront Artur and the others. Yin, left alone, could only contain his frustration within his heart. However, his eyes burning with fiery anger showed that his efforts had been in vain.
Artur and Milton met in the middle. Simultaneously, they both chanted their powerful spells.
"[Lightning Sword]"
"[Spark Fist]"
*BOOM!
The clash of electric swords and fiery punches sent Artur flying backward, his clothes singed at the edges. He came to a stop as Rini caught him from behind. Surprise registered on Artur's face because even with his trusted mana sword, he still ended up losing and being thrown back by a single punch from Milton.
"Artur, that's a spell faction exclusive to the Lewis family. By focusing mana at a single point, they managed to mutate the fire mana color into spark mana color, creating the spark spell faction. Your mana sword wasn't able to penetrate the explosion unleashed by Milton," Rini whispered into Artur's ear.
"How can we defeat him?" Artur stood up again, lifting his sword.
Milton didn't immediately attack; he merely looked at his opponent as a lion would at a threatening bunny with its adorable teeth. The sounds of battle echoed around them, and spells started clashing in the air. The smaller number of A15 classmates compared to their enemies meant they couldn't afford to prolong the fight against Milton and his class if they still wanted to save Robert.
"Artur, you go ahead. I and the others will hold Milton here," Sigurd approached, pointing his sword toward Milton.
Artur didn't respond, only casting a glance before nodding and leaving Milton to his companions. Milton ignored Artur as he passed by; he had no enthusiasm for fighting weak enemies. Eliminating all the A15 members would be more painful for Robert than torturing his body.
Artur, Rini, and a few other students moved away from the battle. However, before they could approach Robert's location, another group intercepted them. Higo and Vega stood side by side, their hands clasped, awaiting Artur and his group's arrival.
"Higo, you know you can't defeat me! You'd better step back; I don't want to kill you!" Artur said.
"The same goes for you, Vega!" Rini added.
Higo and Vega exchanged glances, then Higo spoke, "Forgive me, Artur, but I have no other choice but to hold you here. Perhaps I can't defeat you, but I can keep you at bay until Milton kills all your friends."
Artur gritted his teeth in frustration. What Higo said was true; they didn't have much time to fight him. Before Milton could eliminate them all or before Yin completed Robert's crucifixion, Artur and the others had to save Robert.
That's why Artur had no other option but to use his ultimate weapon.
"[Sonic Boom]!"
