My Second Chance In Life In Another World

CHAPTER 36: THE MAGICIAN TRIO

The battle starts with Carson's 50 henchmen charging towards us from all directions. The condition that Carson gives them, which is that they would get 50 gold coins if they killed Chris and me, looks like it boosted their morale. All of them have faces like hungry predators hunting their prey, but little do they know that we're not weak prey that would just let them kill us without a fight.
 
"Water Curtain!"          Shouted by Father, then a huge circle of water covered our backs.
"I call a wall of water here and now." "Let the tremendous protection of water be upon the location thou seekest."
"Water shield!"
"Water shield!" was shouted by both Chris and I, and then a wall of water covered our front, and all of the henchmen that were attacking us got blocked by those three shields that we created. All of the henchmen fell to their butts, and in sync, all three of us cancelled our spells and started to counterattack.
 
"Magnificent spirits of ice, Oh imperial frozen prince in heaven, strike them down with your majestic sword of ice."
"Icicle break!"          Shouted by Father, then, five ice bolts that are the same size as water arrows appeared and started to attack five of those unguarded opponents.
"I call an arrow of water here and now." "Let the tremendous protection of water be upon the location thou seekest." 
"Water arrow!"
"Water arrow!"          Shouted by Chris and me, then, six water arrows appeared out of nowhere and started to attack six of those unguarded men, too.
 
All of our attacks don't hit vital spots, but they can leave them unable to fight, and that's what we're after. When those henchmen saw what happened, they all stood up in a hurry and became wary of a sudden attack. Now that they know they can't penetrate us just by charging at us, they are now distancing themselves and thinking about what to do next.
 
"Aren't you ashamed?" "There are only three people there, and two are children, and one of those children cannot even move, and you're getting afraid?" Shouted by Carson
"But sir," said one of his henchmen, who has blonde hair, but Carson interrupted him.
"No rebuttal, just fucking kill those two children and do your fucking job!" Carson shouted.
"Yes sir!"          All of Carson's henchmen shouted at the same time and started to charge towards us again, but now I can see that all of them are scared that they are the next to get hit.
 
"Wind blast!"          Father shouted, and then a gust of strong wind started to push those henchmen that are charging at us to the front, but behind him there are still almost 20 people that are about to reach us.
"From the depths of the sea, I summon you." "With the power of the tide, let this water surge and collide." "Arise and unleash your might!"
"Beating tide!"          I shouted, then a tremendous amount of water appeared, and its width was three meters. The tremendous amount of water suddenly became a strong wave that can wash anything in its path, which is why all of those henchmen that were charging at us got washed away. The wave has a long range, and this spell cannot be stopped. That's why, when the wave reached the door to the corridor, the door got breached, and those 20 henchmen got washed away outside, and some bumped into the wall and passed out.
 
"Will,  I'm sorry I haven't told you about this before, but using Beating tide inside a house was a bad choice. That's why I haven't used it since earlier because there is a chance that the water can also harm you," Father said.
"We're lucky that the water didn't reach, but don't use it ever again inside a house," he added.
"Yes, Father," I replied.
"Don't worry, I'm not angry." "Now that there are only 19 henchmen left, are you not going to surrender?" Said by Father to Carson.
"Don't underestimate me, magician; I won't ever surrender to the likes of you," Carson said.
"My henchmen, I'll give you 100 gold coins if you can kill anyone of them; you can do anything; just kill even just one of them," Carson added.
 
Father got into position when he heard that. He knew that with that amount of money, those 19 henchmen would get desperate and would do anything just to kill us, but what happened next wasn't according to our expectations. 18 of those henchmen started to walk and head towards the door that was breached by the wave.
 
"Where are you going?" Asked by Carson
"Sorry, sir Carson, but no matter how much money you offer, I wouldn't risk my life fighting that monster," said the one who was first to walk.
"Me too, Sir Carson, I'm sorry," said another.
 
After that, all 19 henchmen said their sorry to Carson and left the room.
 
"You cowards!          After what I did to you, "I helped your family, and now that's what I will get?" "You ungrateful bastards!" Shouted by Carson to those henchmen that are leaving
 
"Now I will ask you again: are you going to surrender or not?" Asked by Father
"Over my dead body, it's better to die than to be a pawn of this fucking kingdom!" He shouted, then got the sword from the ground that had been swept away by the wind earlier.
"And you?"           Father said, then look at the only henchman that remains at Carson's side—the blonde guy who had the nerve to talk to Carson earlier.
"I will fight too; I won't become like those ungrateful bastards if not for Sir Carson; my daughter already died from her illness, but Sir Carson saved her; he gave me money so that my daughter could be cured, and I will never forget that debt," said the blonde guy.
 
"It seems like we can't persuade you two to surrender, so the only way to end this is to beat the two of you," said the father, about to start the incantation.
 
"Wait, aren't you forgetting me?" "I haven't gotten my revenge on that kid yet, so don't ever touch him," said a familiar voice, and all of us looked towards the direction where it was coming, and we saw Ruel with a cloth bandage on his hand that was cut by me earlier; he's pointing at me and looking at me with the eyes of a predator that saw his prey.
 
"Ruel!"           Carson shouted joyfully, as if his knight in shining armor had just gotten here.
"Ruel, my beloved henchmen, kill the three of them," ordered Carson.
"You don't have to order me, Mr. Carson; that kid owes me something, and anyone who will get in my way of getting my revenge, then I'll kill them," said Ruel, then started walking in the direction where I am lying.
 
"I don't know who you are, but if you want to hurt my son, then I can't just watch it happen," said Father, who then started to walk towards Ruel.
"Then I'll kill you first," replied Ruel.
"With only one arm of yours?" Asked by father.
"This is a handicap; I lowered my guard earlier, and that's why my hand was cut, but now, from the very first, I'll take you seriously, so don't worry, you'll be dead on my first blow," answered Ruel.
"You're underestimating me too much," Father said, then smirked.
"You might find yourself dead if you underestimate me too much," added Father.
"Then I'll show you that I can kill you with just one blow, so watch it because that is also the last thing you will see in this world," said Ruel, who then started to run towards Father.
