Chapter 9 – Let's Finish This Quest II (part 5)

After all the preparations were ready, Walter, Ahka, Rony and Zalot began to attack with arrows. While the others arranged the barrels of water at the front of the line. Yun and I settled into our positions, he's looking anxious at the scene before us.

I patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, we'll be fine, we already practiced it well. "

As the beast horde got closer to us, Yun closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing to calm himself down. When Walter gave the signal, we were ready to respond.

““ Cooperative magic, Water Shock Wave! ””

The water near us turned into one, and like a huge wave swept over the horde of beasts, which were only a few meters in front of us.

I'd seen tsunami waves before on television and the impact they caused, with that visual and references from the manga about ninja that I'd read, that resulted a base for this technique.

Yun, who lives far away from the coast, could not have imagined something like this. It was because of that, combining his water magic and my magic, plus the images from my mind, that we managed to create this technique.

After the huge wave swept away the beasts before us, they all lay on the ground, and to make sure we wiped out the beasts before us, Walter released an arrow made entirely of iron into the center of the puddle tied with an iron chain.

At the end of the iron chain, Rana grasped it tightly while gathering mana to release her magic,

“ Lightning magic, Lightning strike! “

The lightning magic released by Rana flowed through the chain in her hand, and when it reached the surface of the water, everything above it was shocked with electricity. With this, it was confirmed that almost all the beasts were successfully been defeted, even the strong ogre only needed one more push to be taken down for sure.

“ Get ready! “

With the puddles dried up by Rana's powerful magic, the other members began to finish off the beasts that were lying helpless, before another wave of beasts arrived.

The strategy used was still the same, we again waited for the beasts to approach. However, this time we reinforced the barricades with stronger equipment, and as a result, we were surrounded from all directions in the middle of a crowd of beasts who were still wildly provoked by the smoke, which was used to attract them.

To make it easier to imagine, if you've ever seen a movie where people are trapped in a place surrounded by zombies, we're pretty much in the same situation.

Those who are physically stronger try their hardest to hold the barricades, while others attack with spears and crossbows that have been provided beforehand.

Remember, our goal was to dispel and distract them from the main raid squad, so as long as they were distracted, we could buy time for the raid squad to finish off the dungeon boss.

Although of course, my goal was to distract the attention of the other squad members, since I was already too conspicuous when facing the boss dungeon with Silvet and the others.

“ Support magic. Strength Up x5. Less mana consumption x1. “ 

” Dark magic, Dark bringer! “

A wave of magic enveloped us and continued to expand into the area around us. This was a darkness magic technique that served to block the hearing and vision of the target around the user. 

This technique was more difficult and consumed more mana than the black haze that Yun had previously used, thus, I used support magic to lighten his burden and used support magic on the other five people for,

“ HEAVY RUSH! “

“ HEAVY ATTACK!!  “

“ Dark slash. “

““ Shield bash! “”

Bokum, Bjorn, Zalot, Ahka and Rony used their combat skills and knocked the beasts before them, opening the way for us to escape.

Utilizing Yun's magic, we managed to break through the crowd of beasts and ran towards the forest, to take cover at the spot we had prepared earlier.

I, who was at the very back, threw other gases at the beast crowd, such as poison gas, confusion gas and sleep gas. With this, we just had to wait and see as we continued to buy time for the attack squad.
