Chapter 417: Tower Defenses (6)

Sorry, I did not think I would break my promise so soon.

I'm having a bit of trouble writing Fourth Prince's chapters. Like a writer block, and that delayed the chapters of both series.

Anyway, three chapters today, and I'll try to release more tomorrow...

...

"Dammit, what is happening!?"

"Where did this barrier come from!?"

"How is it possible!? I did not feel the slightest mana fluctuation!"

After the barrier appeared, the students belonging to [Call of the Wild] panicked. They hurriedly tried to break the barrier, only to discover that it was stronger than they expected.

Moreover, the barrier had separated them into two groups. Five A-Ranks, including their leader, Oscar, and the peak A-Rank mage responsible for protecting them from Sara, were on a side of the barrier, while the other five A-Rank plus three B-Ranks and one C-Rank were on the other side.

When they realized that, the expressions of the students turned serious. The smartest ones immediately activated their strongest defensive skills.

They remembered what happened the previous time that they were separated. They knew that they were about to face a terrifying attack.

And their worries were not unfounded.

Because in the next instant–

*Swish!*

The sound of the air being cut was heard, followed by one of the students collapsing on the ground.

"Dammit! It's her again!"

The students panicked. Realizing that Sara was back, they hurriedly created a circle with their backs against each other to defend against their attacks,

Unfortunately for them, Sara was not alone this time.

All of sudden, the expressions of the three B-Ranks students plus the C-Rank student became dazed.

It was just for an instant, but at that moment, the shadows around them surged up.

At the same time, a fist broke through the fog, advancing towards the dazed students.

Less than one second later–

*Bang!*

*Swift!*

Liu Ying's fist and Aya's daggers took care of the four dazed students.

The expressions of the others changed. One of them was about to shout in rage, but then, his eyes lost focus, and his expression became dazed as well.

Making use of that opportunity, Sara's attacked once more.

In an instant, she had appeared in front of the dazed student, using her dagger to cut towards his neck.

The A-Rank student opened his eyes wide and looked at Sara with an expression of fear before collapsing on the ground, unconscious.

In just an instant, only three students from the original nine students remained.

"… Nn? It was easier than I thought." Aya could not help but tilt her head in surprise.

She was ready for a fierce battle, however, looking at the current situation, it seemed like she overestimated their enemies.

"It's thanks to Princess Elwha. Her mental attacks are truly fearsome."

"Mm. It's easier to ambush them when they are dazed."

Liu Ying and Sara spoke up admiringly.

"It was nothing. The three of you were impressive as well." Princess Elwha smiled before looking at the three remaining students. "What should we do about them?"

"Of course, we are going to give them a beating. We need to hurry up to help Eres." Liu Ying grinned with a savage expression.

Hearing that, the faces of the three remaining students turned ugly.

"Bastards!" One of them growled in rage. He hurriedly gathered his mana to cast a spell, but before he could, Princess Elwha smiled.

"Stop."

With a thought, her soul power turned into a needle and pierced the student's mind. Immediately, the face of the student distorted in pain, and the spell that he was trying to cast dissipated.

At the same time, Aya moved, her daggers cutting towards the student in a crisscrossed slash.

"Dammit!" One of the other two students hurriedly tried to protect his friend, but all of sudden, he felt a chill in his spine.

At some point, Sara had appeared behind him, using her dagger to pierce towards his neck.

As for the last student, he had been stopped by Liu Ying's fists.

Five seconds later, three soft thuds were heard.

The three remaining A-Ranks students had been knocked unconscious.

…

At the same time, Oscar was looking towards the black-haired girl in front of him with an expression of fear.

'How is it possible!?'

He could feel the girl's mana rank. She was just at the middle stage of A-Rank, much weaker than him.

He did not think that they would have trouble defeating her.

But when the battle started, he realized how wrong he was.

Two peak A-Rank practitioners, two late-stage A-Rank practitioners, and one middle-stage A-Rank practitioner.

The girl alone faced the five of them, and she did not fall into a disadvantage.

No, although Oscar did not want to admit it, the girl was winning.

Despite fighting one against five, she was playing with them as though they were children.

'When such a monster appeared in the city!?'

Oscar's face was pale with fear. Looking at the girl's calm and indifferent black eyes, he could not help but shiver in terror.

He could only watch as the girl brandished her sword, cutting through the group's spells as though they were nothing, and moving elegantly as she aimed to their necks, hearts, and foreheads.

During the entire time, her expression did not change even once. It was as though she was not worried in the slightest about losing.

And in fact, she was not worried.

Oscar did not know it, but the truth was that Eres was holding back.

'What should I do? Brother only asked me to stall them for a while… Hmm… Should I just defeat them? I don't think that brother will become angry if I do, right?'

Eres thought for a moment before nodding to herself.

'Yeah, I think I should just do that.'

With a smile, she looked at the five students and narrowed her eyes.

She then grabbed her sword with both hands and took one step forward.

It was just one step, but it was as though she had moved several meters. In an instant, she appeared in from of Susan, the weakest of the group.

Then–

*Slash!*

Her sword pierced her chest, breaking the barrier and knocking her unconscious.

"Susan!" Oscar shouted in panic and hurriedly attacked Eres, but to his surprise, Eres disappeared suddenly, appearing behind another student.

Her sword was swung down, cutting his back and knocking him unconscious as well, then she disappeared and appeared again, this time using her sword to pierce the belly of a third student.

"Bastard!" Oscar and the peak A-Rank mage became angry and afraid. Facing Eres's overwhelming strength, they felt as though they could not breathe.

However, both of them were peak A-Ranks. They were not going to go down without struggling.

Thus, the pair bellowed and gathered as much mana as they could, ready to release their strongest attack.

Unfortunately, Eres was faster.

She calmly advanced towards the peak A-Rank mage, her sword cutting through his defenses as though they were tofu, finally piercing his heart.

Then, before the peak A-Rank mage collapsed on the ground, Eres looked at Oscar.

And under the young man's frightened eyes, the girl disappeared, appearing behind him in an instant.

The last thing that Oscar saw before falling unconscious was the black-haired girl's cold and indifferent eyes.
