章 38: Chapter:38 Attack pt-2
"Now, please don't move and stay still everyone unless of course, you want to join that trash in afterlife....." Daichi stepped toward's the main stage while locking eyes with Juumonji who had a shocked expression on his face.
"Daichi!? Yo-"
"Yes! I am indeed alive Katsuto....or did you really believed that a blast of that magnitude could kill me?....."
Daichi didn't allow his former friend to speak as he directly interrupted him mid-way with a mocking smile on his face. He stepped up on the stage, he stood in front of Katsuto and stared at him with hatred evident within his eyes.
"I survived that the bombing that day using [Phalanx], unfortunately, I had to sacrifice my left arm due to the partial radiation which had infected my arm....."
"Why didn't you return to the clan if you were alive! What is the meaning of this!?..."
"Return to the clan? Why would I ever want to return to those who murdered Rin in cold blood just to achieve their goals...."
Daichi spoke with apparent hatred within his voice, everyone could see that this 'terrorist' hated the Juumonji clan to the bones and had attacked the [Foundation Day Party] just to exact vengeance while guests were unfortunate enough to be dragged into this personal battle.
Katsuto had conflicted expression on his face as he looked at his former friend with guilt filling his heart. He clenched his fists as his fingers dug deep into the skin of his palm, successfully drawing blood.
'I am sorry Daichi, I couldn't fulfil my promise to you and now Rin is dead....'
'Years ago, I let both of you down.....'
'And it haunted me every day and night, but it is due to the past I have become the man I am now....'
'I swore that I will never allow my people to die if I could save them, and I will not break that promise!'
'I will put an end to this madness and stop you here.....'
Juumonji Katsuto was no longer the naïve boy he used to be, he knew that sacrifices were required to survive in this world, each time he lost someone he did feel pain and sorrow but that didn't waver his heart anymore.
Katsuto was different from other magicians, he had achieved a level in [Space-Magic] that no one in his clan or even in the world had ever achieved, his magic was immune to all interference due to the intensity of his innate magic. A separate casting space was reserved specifically for him to cast his spells within any problem or disturbance.
"You really think that you can just use your magic while I stand in front of you?"
"Your [Cast-Jamming] doesn't affect me Daichi..."
"Of course I know that it wouldn't affect you due to your abnormal Magic, but I have something else that will stop you from activating your magic..."
Daichi raised his hand and motioned towards one of his men, the person immediately raised his [M-16] and shot three politicians in the heart, effectively killing them.
Katsuto was enraged and poured his psion into his C.A.D, intending to restraint his former friend using a powerful [Weight Manipulation Spell].
[Bang]
Another shot was fired by the same individual who once again shot another politician with his gun, Katsuto was very fast and immediately created a shield in front of the politician who had a horrified look on his face.
Unfortunately, the gun that the attackers were using was equipped with [Anti-Magic Bullets], they directly tore through the 3rd-grade shield that Katsuto had conjured in front of the politician, hitting the man in question straight into the chest.
"Stop!....."
Juumonji raised his hand towards Daichi who just narrowed his eyes and made a barrier in front of him to protect himself from the tremendous power that radiated from Katsuto's body.
'Tsk! He truly is the next Juumonji clan head! So much power…..!'
"Stop using your magic Katsuto, otherwise the killing will not stop until everyone here is killed!..."
"You!....."
(Meanwhile Naotsugu's P.O.V)
'This is bad! We are surrounded by terrorists who use lethal weapons equipped with [Anti-Magic Bullets], I can probably take down a few of them but I alone can't guarantee the safety of Mari and the others!...'
'What should I do!?.....'
Thinking to myself about the possible course of actions I could take to ensure the safety of Mari and her friends, I turned to observe their expressions.
Both Mari and Mayumi had serious expression over their faces as they too were trying to think of a way to break the encirclement of the attackers, the circular flanking strategy used by the enemy heavily restricted our movement.
I looked towards Erik who was looking at attacker's position from the corners of his eyes, his eyes seemed to flicker from one-side to another, I recognized this certain behaviour and immediately knew what he was trying to do.
(Erik's P.O.V)
I looked at the attackers from the corners of my eye, whereas in reality, this was all just a farce. I knew that Naotsugu was looking at me so I had to create the illusion that I was marking enemy position within my brain while I am just using [Hollow's Eyes] to look 360 degrees around me.
'6-individuals on my left, 6 on my right and 12-behind me, all of them are aiming down at us which gives them the advantage of the view.'
I closed my eyes as I thought my next best course of action.
'First, take away their advantage....'
(Third P.O.V)
Erik's right palm which was covered in white gloves as always suddenly had a slight purple-coloured spark which was extremely fast to be noticed by the attackers yet Naotsugu was able to see it. His eyes widened at the realization that Erik could still use his magic even under the effect of [Cast-Jamming].
Before he could process what was going on, the entire Main hall suddenly descended into darkness as the lights installed within the place sudden short-circuited and went off.
Naotsugu immediately expanded his aura to cover the whole room and perceive what was going on in the dark, what he saw, shocked him beyond any words, 10-of the 24-attackers had a throwing knife lodged deep into their forehead whereas as the others didn't even have a clue about what was happening.
'So fast! His control over his magic is too absurd! The activation didn't even release a bit of disturbance!.....'
'Absolute Mad lad!...'
Naotsugu was able to confer from his experience that Erik had used [Acceleration-Magic] at a very high level to launch the throwing knives at extreme speeds and without any disturbance.
The feat itself was very hard to achieve yet Erik was able to do so in a tense situation where he could have potentially lost his life due to one wrong move or so he thought.
The woman standing beside Erik also moved and waved her arms at the attackers behind her, nearly invisible wires launched from her palms and tied around their neck, effectively slicing their head with a slight tug on the wire.
She took out 7-more of the attackers before the backup-generator kicked in and the emergency lights were booted.
"Fuck happened!?...FIRE!!!...."
