My Magical System

This person suddenly appeared in front of Gale-Cutter to block Yeman’s sudden kick. Although he did not use much force and speed in his kick, Yeman was a little bit surprised by this person’s speed.

Two figures were sent flying like bowling balls and rolled many times on the ground upon landing, and followed by the rising of clouds of dust.

“I-Ismoley?” Gale-Cutter muttered after the two of them were sent flying about 30 meters away from their last position. The person named Ismoley took the hit that supposed to land at him.

Gale-Cutter was a prideful man, but he values friendship even more, and Ismoley was one of his most valued friends inside the guild. Even though they would see each other not always.

Ismoley was the fourth person in their group of five people that were facing Yeman. He stood lower than everyone. His height was at most at 4’2 ft only. And with big moles on his face.

He was wearing a faded blue vest made from an unknown animal or beast skin, and the sleeves were made of unknown fur. It was paired by faded brown color pants. And old combat leather boots on his feet.

.....

At his wrists, there were silver wristbands. They were his artifact that increases his speed and attack and also defense.

Ismoley pushes his body with difficulty after being thrown by a kick.

“Ohou, ohou! Fuck, w-what was that kick? Was that even a kick from a low ranking magician?” Ismoley coughed and mumbled as he was having trouble trying to stand up.

He could not believe at the force of the kick; he did not even bother answering Gale-Cutter’s call. His hands were numbing and he could taste the smell of blood in his mouth. He narrowed his eyes towards Yeman. He was wondering why this person had such strength.

Ismoley in the half-kneeling state while trying to push his body into standing. Beside him Gale-Cutter already in standing position and looking at him with disbelieving eyes.

On the other hand, Ismoley was wondering about Yeman’s strength. No doubt that he was at most apprentice rank only based on the magic energy they had felt from him.

The others were as surprised as him and were not able to react. They were having difficulty in believing that the person who supposed to be charred right now still managed to send a kick.

Not just that, the two members of them were sent flying on the distance of 30+ meters! They even noticed that Ismoley’s hand was in half-beast form.

At this form, Ismoley’s defense and attack were doubled. But now, it was hanging down limply. Seemed like his hands lost all the strength.

They were looking back at the person whom his leg still in a kick position and his shoulders were still smoking from Gale-Cutter’s attack awhile ago.

A few seconds later, the smoke dissipated and they saw him untouched. No visible wounds. Only his shirt was tattered.

“Phew, it pained me a little. Damn, now, look what you’ve done to my shirt. You tore it with that exploding scissor attack.” Yeman regretfully said after noticing that his shirt was tattered.

“H-How is that possible...” Gale-Cutter could not believe what his eyes were seeing. His attack was not able to damage the person who was much lower ranking than him! That was his popular attack that was feard by his enemy.

The Exploding Wind Blades!

But in that person, it only managed to tear his shirt. With knitted brows and twisted face, he grumbled, “how come, how come you treated my attack as something like scissors?!” He screamed and the energy of white color burst from his right hand once again.

Even the others could not hide the puzzlement they felt as of the moment.

*Cough!* “D-D-Danger...” Ismoley muttered after coughing a mouthful of blood.

Gale-Cutter was startled after hearing him. He was about to attack again but he stopped after hearing Ismoley’s warning. His eyes abruptly scrutinizing around them.

He was perceiving their surrounding. Ismoley had an ability that enables him to detect danger. But he could not perceive any enemy aside from that person who just kicked them.

GAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! Suddenly, they heard a loud roar from someone. Gale-Cutter freaked out from the sudden roar of the person beside him.

Brownish energy burst out from Ismoley’s body until it enveloped his whole person. His whole body seemingly palpated. Then they notice his body slowly changes.

Ismoley’s black eyes awhile ago turned into yellow and became bigger like that of the monster. Even his body became furry and round. His five fingers in each hand and foot had changed to 3 in each.

And long sharp and wide nails appeared on each of his fingers. His whole figure turned like that of a mole monster. And his whole body grew bigger than before.

Gale-Cutter and the others were puzzled watching him.

‘Why Ismoley had to use his hidden card?’ Each of them had a similar question. Only the woman covered in clothing was calm at the very moment.

Even the other assassins hiding in the bushes were puzzled from what they had witnessed.

That person that their target tonight seemed like not an ordinary person. Although Ismoley was not as popular as the others inside the guild, it was because he seldom showed himself inside the guild.

But his reputation in the guild was as good as those four people with him.

Noticing that Ismoley’s body exuding with energy, each of them got excited. They don’t really have a chance to see his full power before. Since he was always on a secret mission.

But right now...

Ismoley completely transformed into a mole man. In this form, all of his stats were greatly increased. Even Yeman could feel his additional strength.

He narrowed his eyes, “hm, a person who could transform their body into a monster, huh.” Yeman interestingly muttered. He only saw it in movies, anime, and comics back on earth.

It looks gruesome while the person slowly changes every part of his body. But after that person fully transformed, he noted that it looks cool. That person now was covered in shiny fur.

Not just that, he could also feel the increase in his strength and other aspects of him. And he grew bigger for such a small person awhile ago.

“Hehe,” Yeman chuckled. “interesting,” he added.

Bang! A loud thunder sound reverberated on the sky, which followed by droplets of rain.

Yeman noticed that the enemies preparing to attack.

After Ismoley’s claim about danger, his comrades had no other choice but to kill this person in front of them. Their original plan was to kidnap this man and deliver him to their client. That person wanted to kill this man in his own hands.

But right now, they must kill this person. To do that, they needed to use their ability in full. No normal magician with lower rank could kick like that to the other magician with a higher rank than him.

All of them concluded that this person had irregular Magician’s Seed. It was different from the unique Magician’s Seed. Magicians with irregular Seed were divided into two categories: either had stronger physical strength and magic than their rank(Lucky Irregular), or weaker physical strength and magic than their rank(Unlucky Irregular). It might be the reason why he was targeted by their client.

Looks like this person was of the lucky side. He had higher physical strength than his rank. Since he was residing here on the north side of the empire, it was only natural that the member of the great noble family who ruled on this side would recruit someone like him which a lucky irregular. And maybe this person refuses their invitation and caused the family to feel dismayed and decided to kill him than letting him join the other great noble family.

Although the Gentlewind family border hadn’t reached here yet, that was part of the underlying schemes of this empire’s 13 great families.

What if the other families were the ones who reached their border in this part. They would increase their power with the addition of this lucky irregular’s strength.

So they had no choice but to assassinate this person.

Even if he had back up with him that was hiding somewhere, they already had surrounded this place. So it was checkmate for him from the start.

The woman whose body covered in black clothing immediately retreated 20 steps away from him. And the two-person standing beside her leaped to his sides.

He noticed that the enemy wanted to surround him.

Gale-Cutter’s right hand that was bursting with glowing white energies lifted above his head and pointing at the sky. While his left hand bracing his right arm. Five glowing objects appeared above his hand. It slowly taking shape. A few seconds later, five rotating circular blades formed like cross-wheels were materialized.

Ismoley dove into the ground and his plump body suddenly sunk into it. Like diving into an ocean.

Ray Boy’s fingertip materializes a blinding ray while his left hand holding the shining orb artifact. The fifth member of their group named Markis summoned a bow that was engulfed by green energy.

Yeman noticed that only the woman did not do anything. She was standing still ahead of him. But he believed that she also was readying herself.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Seeing the three arrows that flew towards him, Yeman alerted himself. These arrows were aimed at his head. He slightly bends his neck to dodge it. Although their attack would probably deal little damage at him and could be easily healed by his Devil’s Cloak regeneration ability, Yeman doesn’t want to left his guard open. These people were of the same rank as him if he was not mistaken by the thickness of the magic energy he felt from each one of them.

In this case, their magic power would eventually at the same level. Only that, he has higher stats than them in terms of physical attack and defense. And also, he has additional resistance.

Each arrow passed at hairsbreadth on his head. Markis furrowed when his arrows just passed through and didn’t hit their intended target.

“Eat this shit!” Gale-Cutter screamed then threw the five circular blades into the sky.

Weeeeng! Weeeeng! Weeeeng...

Five circular blades flew to the sky like cross wheels and simultaneously dove towards him.

Yeman knew that he could not avoid this kind of attack because of the mark that was in him.

These five were much bigger than the three blades he threw awhile ago.

He also noticed a beam that was fired at him by the guy at 30 meters away on his left side. This was the guy who flicked his fingers recently.

Yeman suddenly jumped backward which followed by a feathery hand that was jutting out from the ground where he was standing a second that had passed, it was trying to grab his feet.

It was the guy who transformed recently.

The person seemed surprised that he was able to dodge him.

After his backward jumped, he was able to evade the attack from a light beam and dodge the hand that trying to grab him, but... bang! The feathery hand was hit by the beam instead. But it looks like that mole person did not take much damage from it.

Yeman guessed that those feathers had the ability to negate some attack.

Yeman was currently in the air trying to maneuver his body but the five circular blades were unavoidable.

“Now diiiie! Piece of shit! Puwahaha!” Gale-Cutter laughed which followed by...

Bang! Bang! Bang...

Five consecutive explosions. Cloud of smoke formed in the air where Yeman was maneuvering awhile ago. A moment later, a figure has thrown away from the cloud of smoke. His feet landed on the ground and backsliding for 10 steps.

Flashes of Lightning were tracking up above while abruptly illuminated the ground below, and deafening sounds of thunders were unceasing, while rain becoming heavier every passing minute. It made the atmosphere becoming colder. All of them were drenched by the rain.

Somewhere in the bushes...

.....

“Woah! That was Gale bro’s famous Exploding Circular Blade!” Amusingly said by an assassin hiding in the bush.

“Gale bro’s attack was inescapable. If I am that guy they were fighting, I already chose to give up. It was useless to fight someone who already had the mark by Gale bro,” added the person beside him.

“Yeah, he just making it harder for himself. In the end, his struggle will be for naught. Why not give his life faster than struggling more. It is unwise for him to chose to fight against five stronger enemies.” Replied the former person.

“Idiot! What five-person? I feel bad with your eyes!” Someone yelled at him.

“What? Why calling me an idiot? Is there a problem with what I said? Huh!”

“As damn as you had no right to be in assassin’s guild! Look closely, what you mean by five? Did not you see that that person covered by black clothing? Now tell me, is he joining the fight?!”

The former person narrowed his eyes and saw that this person beside him was right. That person in black was standing still without doing anything.

“Y-You’re right. He was just standing still.”

“Kufufu, you two really are the dumbest member of the assassin guild.”

Another person joined their conversation.

“What are you saying?!”

“Kufufu, you don’t even know that the person behind that piece of cloth is a woman.” The third person stated.

“W-Woman?!” The two were startled. All of them suddenly looked back at the person. Because of the rain, her figure started to surface. The person was having a nice curve body of a woman.

“She really was a woman!” They exclaimed.

“Kufufu-” the guy’s laughing had been cut when he noticed someone had tugged on him from the back. He glanced and asked, “what?” But what greeted him was a heavy hit on his head.

His vision immediately dimming but before he lost his consciousness, he noticed the other assassins he was conversing just a moment ago, they already lying on the ground unconscious.

He stared at the sky and saw the unceasing rain hitting every part of his face.

He could not understand what was happened. Why no one among them noticed these people? And where did they come from? Why they suddenly appeared at their back? They were very careful when coming here. And they did not notice even a single enemy aside from that person who was currently fighting with their leaders. How about their men who were guarding their backs? Don’t tell... they all-

His thinking stopped when he noticed that the space in front of him was having a distortion. Then some people coming out of it. He was staring with wide eyes. Wondering if what he was seeing as of the moment was real or not.

A moment later, his vision went blackout without getting the answer to his questions.

After he lost consciousness, the random indistinct sounds of thud from the bushes silently heard by the victims and the assailants.

All of the victims had unbelievable expressions on their faces before lost their consciousness.
