Crossing Illusion: Reflection (Book 1) #Wattys2017

Chapter 39: Twofold Retaliation

In one of the mountain of Tramuntana, blast and blast seen from afar.

Miguel try to hold on the magic bombardment with his own magic, each sending fireball, thunderbolt, anything they had, but each cancel each other. The small man named Ugor certainly not a normal wizard.

"That's enough, Ugor. This getting too long." Miguel sighed as he see no result after all these minutes of watching the firework. "Eli, attack them." He look at the silent girl with the hoodie. She slowly look back. "Can I use anything...?" She asked timidly. Ricardo smiled brightly. "Of course! Do it as you please."

He then back away slightly along with everyone. "Then... I'll use that." The girl point to a massive rock as it began to shake of and start to levitate from the ground. She point it toward their enemies and the rock was thrown to them, causing everyone who's in awe to run away from her. "What the... Levitation ability? Telekinesis?" Fahmir quickly back to his feet and observe the girl. She calmly continue levitating more huge stone around, and Fahmir was more than just in awe. He's shocked because not even Almerich can do this so effortlessly.

As they evade one after another, she uproot trees and thrown it to them, and basically any object. Soon the entrance of the place is all messy and deranged as dust and smoke blown everywhere. The girl yet still in her unmotivated face. "That's enough Eli. Now..." Ricardo tap her shoulder, then look at the small mage. "Ugor. Made sure you blast them good this time."

From beyond the smoke screen, the four can see bright torch of flame sphere formed in the air. They barely escape the solid object rain, and now they're going to be finished.

As the fire blown into them, another fire blast from beyond the smoke screen into the flame, causing blast as the two torrent of fire meet and making the air blown by the heat and moisture vapor.

"For Pete's sake.... One minute late and everyone roasted. One minute early and we're crushed." Sound coming behind the smoke as it slowly became transparent view again, revealing that Laya and Reynold was arrived. "You're pretty late, but I can't complaint..." Fahmir laughed weakly as he tried to wake up, and so does the other three.

Ricardo's expression change on the sudden shift of the tide. He know they're heading here, but he didn't expect them to be this fast. "Well, well... Seems this is getting more balanced. However, I still had the upper hand." He prepare his blade and gun again. "And in case more of them coming, I can handle them with my Phantasm." He add additional comment inside his mind.

"We don't had much time. Soon their leader will reach the idols and it will weakened the seal even more. We must make haste." Fahmir prepare his saber again. "Alright, I'm in!" Laya replied positively and Reynold could only smirk at his opponent, being cautious on their movement.

"Then I'll start it with this... Ugor, smoke!" He command his Luchador as the petite mage tap his staff to the ground, and from the skulls come darkening smoke that soon engulfed the battlefield.

Somewhere else in Majorca city.....

Barrage of shadows pierce and flow through the city seamlessly, able to cut things at ease without an even slight delay. Noir and Almerich flight back and land on the pavement as debris blown around. From buildings on the side, scarlet-cloaked man jump around like a cat and pounce down on the two unsuspecting target.

"This guy-!" Noir retaliate as his swing his blade above, meet the bloody blades of the other guy that result spark of energy. Almerich unleash projectiles of psychokinesis force toward Deva, which swat down by his shadow tendrils effortlessly. More powerful blown fired at him, resulting bigger explosion, but Deva simply barricade himself with walls of darkness.
