The Magician of Sound

Chapter 59 - Hospital



Shirotsuka Sanae finally struck the assassin on the face and blew her toward the wall.

Bam!

The dust from the crash rose and covered the assassin leader.

The assassins were surprised by how Shirotsuka Sanae didn\'t care about her own hand and chose to strike their leader.

The smoke scattered away in a second, and they could see their leader in bad condition.

Her mask was completely shattered and fell to the ground. It showed her crystal pink eyes as well as a broken nose. Her face was a bit destroyed after that strike, and blood covered her face.

"Kill her!"

She immediately gave orders out of rage while struggling to come out from the wall.

The others made a complicated expression, but they still proceeded with her order.

Both of them immediately made a magic circle. They did the same thing the wind magician that Kai fought did. They stored their magic and released it in one go. This technique was very popular in United Asia, especially for attackers, as it would give them a far more powerful skill than their usual.

Sadly, Kai couldn\'t use this as he didn\'t have any magic that was compatible with this technique. Part of it was because this technique was only for the mainstream element such as fire, water, and so on. It wasn\'t compatible with elements like Ikeda Kenzo\'s light magic, Tasha Carter\'s space magic, or Kai\'s sound magic, as they couldn\'t compress light, space, or sound.

However, with this technique, the soldiers in the front lines could advance more swiftly. And this exact technique was used to attack Shirotsuka Sanae.

"Ice Dragon Fly."

"Wind Typhoon."

Both supports immediately used their skills. The right one made a blue magic circle from which appeared a blue dragon made of ice. The left one made a green magic circle and summoned a wind tornado that was bouncing like a snake on the ground.

The skills were coming from Sanae\'s right and left. As she wanted to jump to avoid these skills, a high-pitched sound pierced her ears.

"Khh!" All of the assassins covered their ears. The two skills that were coming toward her immediately shattered into pieces because they lost control of their magic.

Only Shirotsuka Sanae recognized this sound. She bit her lips until it was bleeding to endure the excruciating pain. She forced herself to channel her magic and boosted her star knives again.

Both of her star knives flew toward the support assassins and impaled both of their heads.

"That bastard…" Sanae glanced at Kai a little bit and noticed his bad situation and realized that he chose to use this perfectly as both of them were under attack.

After killing the two assassins, Shirotsuka Sanae immediately charged at the rest of the attackers as she moved her star knives toward them.

They endured the pain in their ears and raised their weapons. They deflected both of her star knives with their daggers and glanced at their fallen teammates.

Shirotsuka Sanae just ignored the fact that they deflected her star knives as she could pull them back with the strings that were attached to them.

Shirotsuka Sanae moved toward the assassin leader that had finally come out of the wall.

"You b*tch!" The assassin threw a fist toward her.

Shirotsuka Sanae appeared to be throwing her fist again. However, this time, just before the fist collided, Shirotsuka Sanae jumped upward. She waved her hands and controlled the strings.

The strings made a few loops in the air before falling to the assassin leader. Shirotsuka Sanae immediately tightened it and tied the assassin leader.

"!!!"

"Leader!" The other two immediately stepped forward to save their leader.

At this particular time, Shirotsuka Sanae saw a sword coming from her right. The sword flew at high speed and stabbed one of them on the head. It was Kai\'s sword.

Seeing that, she didn\'t hesitate for even a moment. A magic circle appeared beneath her feet. She raised her foot to the air as though she was kicking a football up high, and a wind pressure appeared on her foot.

The wind pressure suddenly turned into a wind blade and flew toward the assassin leader. It split the assassin leader into two together with her strings.

The last assassin on the scene used this chance to attack Shirotsuka Sanae. After all, Shirotsuka Sanae had lost both of her Star Knives the moment she cut her leader as well as the strings.

She charged at her as her dagger started sparking with lightning. "Die!"

Shirotsuka Sanae only snorted. "No, you die."

"What are-!" Just when she started swinging her dagger, her head was impaled by two star knives.

"You\'re assassins that have been stationed around here. Sadly, you\'ve never been to a real battlefield where you\'ll die if you don\'t think one or two moves ahead," Shirotsuka Sanae said.

The difference in experience was too far. Because of the loss of her best friend, Shirotsuka Sanae was forced to think a few moves ahead so she wouldn\'t die in battle. It was usually her friend\'s job, but thankfully, she accumulated enough experience in this.

With that, she managed to kill the assassins pretty easily. She looked at the tallest tower a few hundred meters away, warning the sniper. If she dared to come, then she would also kill her. However, seeing her comrades already die, she could do nothing other than retreat.

Sanae then waved her hands and retrieved both Kai\'s swords so they didn\'t leave any trace. She then followed Kai\'s trail and found him leaning on a wall. His face was pale as he had lost too much blood.

She shook her head helplessly. "You idiot. I\'m sure you could have gotten away from the assassins if you hadn\'t saved me from that bullet. And you even provided me support with that skill and your sword even in your condition. I\'ll help you a bit longer."

She carried Kai on her back and went to the hospital.

A few hours later.

Tasha Carter finally came to the hospital. She came out of the pink magic circle and startled the receptionist. She slapped the table and said, "Where is the room for Kai Carter?"

"Hii—!" The nurse was scared as she never expected this.

"Hurry up! What? What do you want to know? I\'m Tasha Carter, his sister! Hurry up and say it! If not, I\'ll teleport you a kilometer in the air and let you die!" Tasha roared at the receptionist with killing intent.

"Room 202." The receptionist immediately checked and gave her the information. Her hands were still shaking, and her feet were weak. After giving that information and seeing Tasha going toward the room, she immediately fell to her seat and had a hard time calming down. It was only after a few minutes that she finally managed to calm down and informed the person in charge of the hospital about this. Of course, with Tasha Carter\'s background, they could only let her do as she wished.

Tasha was rushing toward this place after she was informed of this by her parents. She was raising money with a certain company in Hiroshima as they had a partnership in the past. Upon hearing this news, she instantly booked a plane ticket and rushed to this place. At first, she wanted to use her space magic to rush here, but she had several problems and couldn\'t do it.

When she arrived at the room, her mother immediately stopped her from rampaging. After all, it was already late at night.

"Come here…" She dragged her with absolute authority. "Don\'t worry about Kai. He\'s resting at the moment, and I\'ve talked to him for a while before this."

"Mo-mother!" Even though her mother looked like a normal mother, she still felt chills when she was like this. She knew her mother was very angry. She even unconsciously talked politely.

She dragged her to the roof and asked, "So, what is this all about? Have you and Kai hid something from us?"

"I…" Tasha looked away, feeling guilty about this. She looked left and right for a while before sighing. "There\'s a problem with the Katsuragi family in the north. Kai and I… want to send you guys to Michelle\'s family…"

She looked down. They had been protecting their parents as far as they could remember. It all started when her power bloomed and numerous people tried to harm their family.

Kai was the one who seemed to be accustomed to fighting… of course, because of Michelle. And under him, she started practicing and protecting their parents. She decided to do that because she felt too indebted since they even picked her, an orphan, up out of nowhere.

Her mother suddenly hugged her. "Silly child. You don\'t need to do this for us… We\'ve become your burden this whole time."

"Mom... you know about it?"

"If you\'re asking about whether I know about how you and Kai have been protecting your father and me for almost a decade, then both of us know about it.

"It\'s pretty obvious since both of you often came home with bruises and wounds. If you think both of us could be fooled just because both of you said \'you fell\', then you need to come again in another decade.

"Sadly, even with us knowing it, we couldn\'t do a single thing to help you since your father and I aren\'t qualified for the front lines because of our weak power.

"Don\'t you worry, Child. As long as you and Kai are alright, we don\'t care whether we are alive or dead. So you don\'t need to do all this for us," her mother said, full of emotion.

Tasha also started crying. "Mom..."
