Chereads / Successor of The Sacred Magic / Chapter 36 - Multiply Minotaur

Chapter 36 - Multiply Minotaur

"Celine! Can you find the leader?" Zeolite asks while dodging the minotaur that is holding an axe. "Wait a moment!" Celine said and jump up from craters to craters, another minotaur rush to her holding up his axe, before he can touch her, Theresa shoots a fireball at him, knocking him a few feet away. Celine successfully got on the top building, thanks to Theresa, and use her magic.

Zeolite just finished the minotaur that fights with him, he sighs in relief and wipes the sweats on his forehead, and think the fight was done, but, an army of minotaur stood in front of them, along with their back, blocking their way to escape, "Theresa. Hold on for a while, buy me a few seconds." Zeolite said pulling out a card. With a bow drawing in it.

"Got it." Theresa nods flames lingers around her arms, "GRAAA!" A couple of minotaur shouts, rushing from the front and back, one of them jump at her holding out his axe, Theresa punches his guts and kick his body away, another one rush at her back, swinging his axe to the side which Theresa ducked to avoid it and kick his legs causing him to falls, Theresa punch his face to make sure he won't wake up again. When she was distracted, a minotaur jumps at her back, Theresa looks back from her shoulder and smirks, "Eternal Flames." She muttered, as the minotaur immediately burns to crisp.

"Good. Thanks for the help." Zeolite smirks before drawing the bowstring back, and release it at the army on his East, the arrow pierces one of them as the explosion is triggered. The card Zeolite using is, Explosive Bow, whenever an arrow got pierces to something, it will trigger the explosion. When the explosion happened, the other army is panicking, some run away, and some still attacking Theresa.

"Theresa! Try to keep them in one place!" Zeolite said having a hard time aiming at the running minotaur. "Alright!" Theresa nods and casts a firewall around the panicking minotaur, "Your lives end here!" Zeolite shout before letting go of the bowstring. The arrow explodes, leaving no trails of bone or blood.

Zeolite release the breath he's holding when aiming as the bow disappears to golden dust. "Celine! Any news?" Theresa asks jumping up the rooftop Celine on. Celine blink as the magic circle on her eyes disappear, "Bad news…there is more minotaur. The leader is creating some kind of portals and the minotaur comes from the portals." She said updating the information.

"At what number the Portal is?" Theresa asks, "Around 3 or more." Celine replies to her question, "Seems like we won't get a rest at all." Zeolite sigh looking at his West, to see hordes of minotaur running at their position. He looks towards Theresa, "How much is your Mana supply?" He asks, Theresa point to herself, "me? Not sure…half, I guess." She shrugs, "Alright, drink this." Zeolite said throwing her a bottle of blue liquid, Theresa quickly catches it, and look at it, "are you sure? This is a little bit pricey…" She said afraid to give him more burden.

"Nah, I need your most powerful attack now. And that spell would need a high amount of Mana." Zeolite said telling her not to worry. "Alright then." Theresa sigh in defeat, and drink the Mana bottle. When she finishes drinking the Mana bottle, she feels more refresh than before. "Thank you, I'll make sure to repay you someday!" Theresa grins holding a peace sign before focusing on her spell.

Multiples Magic Circles appear above the roads, "GRAAAAA!!!" The Minotaur was heard shouting, holding out their axes, some of them try to climb the building they're on, but whenever one of them very near onto the top, Zeolite will kick their heads, making them falls, and have to start all over again.

"...It's Theresa's spell…we should step out from the roads." Hector said jumping up on a rooftop, "Holy crap! It's been a while seeing this spell!" Ashley cheered pumping out her fist in excitement, "oi, oi don't just stand there. You want to burn alive?" Hector asks staring at her weirdly, "yeah, yeah." Ashley rolled her eyes and jump to the rooftop.

"What are these?" The Minotaur leader grumbles looking at Theresa's Magic Circles, He looks to one of his soldier and said, "you! Try standing there!" He demands, "Yes sir!" The soldier said and goes to stand in the middle of Theresa's Magic Circles. A few seconds flies by, and he can't keep his impatience away, "Nothing happens! Is this a troll?!" He said standing up from his throne and ask his soldiers, "did any of you know?! Answer me!" He shouts, "no sir!" His soldiers reply, "Tsk, why did I even make those portals if none of you can answer my simple question-" He was cut off by the screams of the soldier that stands in the middle of Theresa's Magic Circles.

"-Fire In The Sky." Theresa let out her spell names.

"What happened?!" Minotaur leader shouts turning around to see the soldier that stands there is burn to death, while the Magic Circles is launching fireballs from it. At a very high speed. "W-What?" He asks taking a step back.

"It's raining!!!" Ashley yelled, "it's raining fire!!!" She continues to yell, "Uhm, citizens! Please don't go out of your houses! Trust me! You'll be safe inside!" Hector said telling the citizens to not go outside.

"What a speed…" Celine said in awe at the sight of Theresa's spell. "I agree with you." Zeolite smiles ruffling her hair, "what's with the sudden ruffling?" Celine asks fixing her hair. "Nothing." Zeolite replies, "why are you so secrecy?" Celine asks annoyed, and puffs her cheeks, "Am I?" Zeolite asks, "Yes you are!" Celine groans annoyed by his replies.

"Let's go, we need to defeat the leader and deactivate the portals." Theresa said standing up from her position and adjusts her gauntlets, "Yeah, let's go." Zeolite said standing up and offer Celine a hand, Celine looks to the side and pouts before accepting his hand.
