The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 323 - Fighting Alone

"!!!" Kai furrowed his eyebrows when he suddenly saw the grison move faster than ever. In fact, when he realized he couldn't stop, and Kai was coming, it decided to leap to the front with an unprecedented speed.

Kai struck his head with his Vibration Swords, but to his surprise, the grison summoned Earth Wall to stop both swords for a moment.

After that, it head-butted the wall along with Kai, who was behind it.

"Seriously?" Kai gritted his teeth, protecting his body from this with his hand. He was blown away to the air before he used his Sound Blast to decrease his momentum before landing on the ground unharmed. "Luckily, I have the exoskeleton that reduces the impact… It's a bit numb, but I should have no problem in wielding the sword like normal."

As he said, if he didn't have his body covered by an exoskeleton, he might be injured to the point it crushed his bone.

In this exchange alone, he realized that the grison was actually different from the rest of the intelligence beasts he had fought. This attack power alone was close to that of a black bear, one of the strongest A rank beasts.

"To think I would need to face an intelligent A rank beast, this is going to be a problem." Kai took a deep breath as he stared at the grison. "At least, I am not going to fight against an S rank or a protector."

He released his animal instinct and let it take over.

"A few seconds have passed, and now I only have a minute left…" Kai gritted his teeth and jumped forward.

The grison seemed to have the same thought. This time, these two had a similar mind as if they knew what each other was thinking.

Kai waved his sword, trying to strike the grison's head, but the latter immediately rose and sent a paw toward him.

Unfortunately, it couldn't catch Kai off guard again. And the powerful Vibration Swords finally showed its true might.

Clang.

A sound of a clash between two metals rang in their ears before the grison realized pain coming from its own claws. When it glanced downward, it found out that Kai just cut its claws.

"It's for health reasons. You shouldn't have a long nail, so I cut it for you." Kai smiled, taunting the beast. He was trying to taunt the magical beast. If it were truly an intelligent beast, it would surely understand him somehow.

And that was what Kai had been waiting for this whole time.

The moment the grison roared as if responding to Kai's provocation, he disappeared.

"!!!" The grison widened its eyes and felt an incoming presence from his right.

"Hmm." Kai furrowed his eyebrows as he realized that this beast had a stronger perception. If it was a normal one, he might be able to get close enough to strike him, but he needed another one second with his current speed.

And that one second was enough for the grison to wave its hand, trying to swipe Kai away with that giant paw.

Unfortunately, if this was the first time it showed such a great reflex, Kai might need to retreat. It just… it already allowed Kai to see its capability in the first surprise attack. And this second occasion just reinforced that fact.

Kai didn't panic and kept getting closer before he used his Sound Blast two times to launch him like a pinball past the paw, arriving right before its arm.

He waved his sword to cut the arm but found another Earth Wall trying to strike him from below.

"I have seen that move as well." Kai snorted and struck the wall with his off-hand, making him spin in the air.

This was still within his expectation as he used that force and cut the hand as if it was cut by a saw machine.

*Roar!*

The grison screamed in pain as it looked at the paw that fell off his arm before using its other hand to blow him away.

He summoned two Sound Blast magic circles, one was next to him and the other one was beneath that giant paw.

It launched both objects at the same time.

Kai flew away to avoid that giant hand while the paw flew toward the magical beasts, making them either stumble or hit by that, stopping their movement for a little longer.

Unfortunately, it couldn't stop the entire enemy. The right side of the enemies kept pursuing him as if nothing happened. In fact, they were quite angry when they saw the grison lose its hand to Kai.

Even so, there was nothing they could do before they caught up. After seeing this, Kai picked up a few stones on the ground before running away like he planned to.

He didn't forget to release his killing intent and stick out his tongue to provoke the giant grison.

"Grrr." The grison gritted its teeth and tried to chase him. However, he wasn't as fast as the normal him because it had lost one paw.

Seeing this, Kai grasped all the stones he picked up earlier and summoned his Sound Blast before throwing it.

The Sound Blast amplified the speed of the stones as it flew toward the right side of the beast. Due to losing its right hand, it certainly couldn't protect the beast in that direction unless it stopped.

If he truly did that, Kai would surely escape. After taking its right hand, there was no way the grison could let Kai do that.

It kept charging at him without looking back. And this allowed Kai to reduce their number as much as possible.

Still, he miscalculated something.

"This is not good. I will be reaching the mark within a minute if I keep going at this pace…" Kai muttered before letting out a long sigh. "It's time to create a huge disturbance, I guess."

He leaped again to the air, using the same move as he did to surprise the grison. However, his current targets were the magical beasts behind the grison.

*Roar!* The grison caught this move and sent his paw to slap Kai to the ground, planning to kill him like a fly.

Kai only activated another Sound Blast to give another burst of speed, avoiding this attack. The moment he was about to crash into the beasts, he waved his swords and started his killing spree.

Magical beasts' bodies started to fly to the air as Kai slowly made his way from the left side to the right side.

The magical beasts tried to attack him, but none of them were able to hold him down. In fact, they couldn't last even a single hit.

The grison planned to leave it to his underlings but realized that none of them was useful. It then began making his way toward Kai without caring about his subordinate. Most of them were stomped to death because of this.

When Kai saw this, he smirked while killing the monsters around him. He even purposely stayed in one place for a few seconds so that the grison could arrive.

*Roar!*

A loud sound reverberated in his ears as a paw struck forth.

A green magic circle appeared beneath his feet as it launched him to the right side, letting the paw earlier strike the ground while killing a few beasts in the process. This surely made the grison even madder.

It chased Kai no matter the cost.

"Come come come." Kai utilized the same strategy. It succeeded a few times before the grison changed its attack pattern. Instead of striking him from above, it swept the entire magical beasts along with him to push him away from there.

"Oi, oi. This is insane." Kai gritted his teeth. If he jumped, the grison would surely slam him down whether using its hand or its head.

"I guess I will take this one." Kai sighed before using his Oscillation Shield to block himself from the beasts. After all, if he stuck with them while getting swept, the beasts had the chance to strike him. That was why he used this giant Oscillation Shield, bigger than his body, to protect himself.

Still, the force was enough to disturb his plan as he rolled on the ground, completely surrounded by beasts. The one on the left side rolled farther than him because there was nothing to stop them. Meanwhile, he, in the middle, and the beasts on his right side stopped right away due to their sacrifice and immediately charged at Kai.

Kai rose from the ground instantly, but in this position, he could only do another swing with his main hand. If he hit the grison, he would be struck by the incoming magical beasts and vice versa. This was a serious situation as one wrong decision might prove to be fatal.

Even so, Kai didn't even glance at the magical beasts. He created an Oscillation Shield on his right but ignored the rest.

*Roar!*

Those who hit the Oscillation Shield roared while those who came from behind him tried to bite him.

Kai knew about this, but he kept focusing his attention on the grison in front of him as he struck its paw, cutting half of the paw.

*Roar!*

The beasts behind him let out another roar before biting him.

It was at this time Kai smiled as he heard a few gunshots coming from his left.

Bang.

Bang.

Bang.

Three shots echoed as the beasts behind him flew to the side as if something just hit them. The momentum still pushed them toward Kai, but because of these shots, they were a bit to the right, missing him just a few inches away.

"Nice shots." Kai smirked.

"Haiz, you are pushing me too much, Captain. What will you do if I were not in time?" Evan let out a sigh of relief.
