They were surrounded
Needless to say, their situation was quite bad. There were five enemies plus the spatial mage and Isaac but Isaac was currently restrained. So it will be Six vs Two plus they need protect Leon.
"These guys are no joke, their magic power is off the charts." Lyon thought with a frown.
"Tsk... Oh well, the tables have turned in my favor.." Isaac said with a look of joy.
"Hahahahaha... Will you look at this. We are surrounded and their five of them at that!!" Kai voiced our as a wide smile appeared on his face.
"Did you go crazy because of the amount of people you are facing? Whatever he is going to die anyway." One of the hooded mages said as they prepared to attack.
"I'M ALL FIRED UP NOW!!" Kai shouted out as he dashed towards one of the mages with inhuman speed.
Bang!
Kai slammed his fist covered in flames into the mage's face, sending him flying in the air like an arc.
Boom!
The mage's body slammed into the wall of a nearby building before falling on the ground, motionless.
"What's with that inhuman strength?" One of the mage's voiced out in shock. r
"Oh wait, he was the one we were told of. The brown hair, that scarf with the scale like pattern and that inhuman strength. He's the one that defeated Lars!" A feminine voice spoke out with a devious smile.
Suddenly, a barrage of ice shot towards them at insane speed, forcing them to dodge.
"Did you bastards forget about me?!" Lyon shouted with a fierce look as he manifested and launched several ice lances towards the mages.
The mages reacted by firing several magic spells to counter the ice lances.
"Damn, Fire and Ice. What an ironic Ironic Duo. These guys are too dangerous to be left alive." One of them said as they conjured three huge fireballs and launched them towards Lyon and Kai.
Seeing the approaching fireballs, Kai smiled. He dashed towards the fireballs and extended his hand. The mages were shocked by his action, "Was he suicidal?" was what they thinking but they were dumbfounded by what happened next.
He absorbed the three fireballs into his right fist, causing his flames to grow bigger and burn with intensity.
He stopped his sprint and punched through the air, sending an intense burst of flames towards the mages.
'Water Magic: Water Nest'
One of them reacted swiftly and conjured a huge barrier and covered them, protecting them from the intense burst of flames.
"Did he just absorbed our fireballs?"
"What did it look like, Idiot!"
The mages voiced out amongst themselves, confused how Kai could absorb their fireballs spell.
Then out of nowhere, several ice spikes shot out from the ground and attacked the mages.
"Shit, how?" One of them questioned with a confused look. They looked towards their side and saw traces of ice and Lyon several feet's away with his hand on the ground.
Apparently, he attacked them after Kai's attack was blocked.
"Damn it, Who are this two and how come we hadn't heard of them?" A one of them voiced out. The mages had advantage in numbers and we're somewhat still losing.
"Attack them with anything except fire based spells." One of them yelled out.
Upon that, the mages launched several magic spells; Wind, Water and Vine spells, towards both Kai and Lyon.
Lyon and Kai knew they won't be able to dodge all of the mage's attack, so Lyon was about to create an ice barrier but before he could, he suddenly felt a pressure, attempting to force him to his knees.
The same can be said for Kai and rogue mages as they felt the strange pressure.
"This magic power is...." One of the mages said so while looking up in the air.
Before their attack could make impact, Kai and Lyon were surrounded by an mercury like barrier that protected them from the attack as the mages attacks slammed into the barrier.
"What the..." Miguel voiced out in surprise.
The mercury barrier melted away, revealing 8 individuals wearing uniforms and robes.
"The magic knights!" The rogue mages spoke out at the same time.
"Thanks for the free trip." One of the knights said with a displeased look.
"No way, how did you get here so quickly?" Miguel said with a dumbfound look.
"It's quite simple, all of us and the adventurers combined our powers. I guess you can call it synthesizing." The male knight explained.
"It was quite the experience." A fat magic knight said calmly
"Shit I got dirt in my eye." A young woman with short, ruffled black hair and brown skin said as she rubbed her eyes while standing close to a woman with long blonde hair.
"I'm not going that again." A young man with blue hair spoke with a displeased look.
"Yeah, I feel like I'm going to..." A young woman with blue hair paused mid-sentence as she resisted the urge to vomit.
"Don't you dare do it." The blue haired man spoke out as he stepped backwards but than someone spoke with a angry tone.
"Now, I think it's about time we deal with you lots!" The man known as Sir Solid spoke out.
"They have three captains on their side, fighting here will only get us killed. Let's get out of here!" Miguel voiced out as he carried Isaac and the other mage that passed out.
"Oh, who said you can leave?" Solid said as he manifested several mercury spheres and launched them towards the mages.
"Water Magic: Water Nest"
The rogue mage's swiftly reacted and conjured a huge water barrier, protecting them from the mercury spheres as it slammed into the barrier with force.
"Such magic power." Solid thought as he analyzed the rogue mages water barrier.
"You may have won this battle but we will win the war. We will retreat now but mark my words, we, the devil eye, will destroy the Kingdom of Fiona!" One of the rogue mages said as their bodies sink into the darkness before disappearing.
