The Magician of Sound

One day ago.

Kai presented one strategy that stunned everyone inside the room.

"We can't win against them," said Kai with a serious expression. "The best chance for us is to repel them with my teacher's God Killing Arrow. This is an extremely risky strategy, but if you think you can fight against three creatures that can destroy a city with their own power, be my guest."

Knowing this kind of information from Kai and Leah, Ria asked without hesitation. "What do you want me to do? It's hard to make them take the bait and stay still, you know. Even the Brazilian Wandering Spider needed to be pinned down…

"With all these strong people, what should we do to stop them from moving?" Ria asked while thinking of a solution by herself. She didn't want to rely on Kai the whole time, especially in this field.

"I can stop their movements. However, that will require Tasha to rescue me right before Teacher releases your arrow." Kai nodded and raised three fingers. "We need to do three things before executing this plan. Before that, I would like to make sure that everyone is on this…"

"I'm good." Nathan raised his hand without hesitation. Since his grandson-in-law took the lead, he would support him to the best of his ability.

The other Generals and S Rank Magicians seemed to have come to a conclusion.

"We also agree with your plan. Your plans were magnificent in the past, so we want to trust you." Ethan nodded.

Kai smiled. "Thanks. Then, I will start explaining the three things. First of all, we are going to show them our power to let them know that we are serious about defeating them. This one has two meanings. First, I want the enemy to think we haven't known their strength yet, so we will be confident in defeating them. Second, it's to make them know that we may have no other secret weapon on our sleeve.

"Hence, the signal of this operation is when ten Generals that took the field made their move. Yes, before anything big happens, please don't show your fighting prowess yet. This is going to be our signal. I don't know what will happen, but I know that they will kill many of us, so I'm sure you will have the time to act.

"After that, everyone is going to target the one that my teacher fought during the battle. This kind of movement shouldn't need any coordination since all of you are going to replace her as soon as you make your move.

"Then, we will send the two units under two Generals that will misdirect their thoughts into thinking we're planning to do the same thing as them. And their mission is to eliminate as many magical beasts as possible. Of course, I hope the generals whose units are around you will command your units to make way. This wraps the second thing.

"Last but not least, I'm going to send someone to make a certain camouflage so my teacher can gather enough energy to bring the strongest God Killing Arrow. Your target will be the princess since she is very important to both of them.

"These three things will allow us to gain a massive advantage in this war. So, I hope that everyone can follow this plan." Kai nodded. "I'm sure that the enemy will retreat after seeing her strongest attack."

They exchanged looks, contemplating this plan.

…

Remembering that meeting, Ria couldn't help but smile and release the sword that acted as an arrow, containing all her magic power.

"God Killing Arrow."

"Princess!" The turtle shouted in panic as he clearly felt the power contained in that arrow.

Ilareca gritted her teeth and waved her hand to stop this attack, but deep down, she realized that her strength couldn't stop this overbearing attack. This attack had a sole purpose. It was to go straight, destroying everything on its path.

Because it had been programmed this way that Ria's God Killing Arrow could contain this much strength.

However, the turtle also had something similar in his repertoire. Instead of attacking, his power had been used to protect.

The turtle arrived right in front of the princess and slammed the bottom of his shield to the ground, gaining enough foothold for the shield.

"Seven Star Domain Gates!" The turtle shouted as a red metal gate emerged from the ground.

Orange gate followed right after and continued with the color of the rainbow.

All seven gates were aligned, planning to receive this God Killing Arrow.

"!!!" The turtle suddenly felt an immense pressure coming from his shield as the God Killing Arrow hit the first gate.

This was the first time he received such a powerful attack from a mere human.

"What?!" The turtle drew a gasp as the first gate was shattered into pieces.

"!!!" Ilareca and Marza widened their eyes. They never saw his "gate" getting shattered into pieces before because there wasn't a life-threatening situation that required such a skill. Yet, they knew that this skill was his strongest skill.

He might not have his full power since he wasn't in the water, but the turtle could live on land too, so the turtle was the least suppressed in this environment.

With all that power, Ria managed to pierce through the first gate.

However, their shock continued because Ria had broken through the second gate.

The third gate tried to contain the arrow a bit longer as they saw what happened to the ground that the arrow passed.

Surprisingly, there was a huge half-circle trail as if a giant worm ate the ground as it traveled. Yet, they couldn't say such a thing because the ground had some sparks from inside, showing that the dirt might be engulfed by flame very soon.

"Such a powerful attack." Ilareca raised her vision, looking at Ria. This was the first time she believed that humans might be harmful to their race because even a normal human could do something like this. If Theo wielded a more powerful strength than this one by becoming a full-fledged protector, the war would become tremendously hard.

However, that shock had yet to cease when the arrow shattered the third gate.

"What?" Ilareca dropped her jaw. Even with her full strength, she only managed to destroy five of them in total. After all, Seei was known as the strongest person in defense.

He could even stop several attacks from Neptune, so his reputation was well-deserved.

Yet, a human destroyed that third gate and had no sign of stopping.

The fourth gate was shattered right after, making their heart skip a beat.

'How much strength does this arrow truly possess?' Marza squinted his eyes with a slight fright filling his heart.

He soon got goosebumps when the fifth gate was destroyed right before his eyes. Even Ilareca couldn't contain her shock as the arrow now clashed with the sixth gate, the one that she never touched.

'This attack must contain all her strength, but it's still surprising to see someone who hasn't touched the true magic can push Seei to this point. If she knows the Magic Particles… I'm afraid…' The princess' expression darkened.

Fortunately for them, the arrow began losing its power as the size rapidly shrunk, turning that majestic and powerful sword into a normal sword.

Still, the arrow didn't go down without a fight.

Crack.

"!!!" They all heard the crack and saw a huge one appearing on the sixth gate.

They felt relieved and scared at the same time as they looked at the person who managed to do such a thing.

Ria Ross.
