The Great War of Rhodesia
35. Secret Attack I



While at the same time in the back row, Lily who was standing guard behind Aksa, Nata, and Lucia, suddenly looked alert.


Yllgarian the rabbit tightly grasped his magic wand as he walked closer to his two masters. Shows the view in all directions sharply.


"What's Lily?" Nata asked as she realized Lily's unusual behavior.


But Lily did not have time to answer, suddenly appeared a woman from nothing just behind Lucia with a drawn sword.


And still Lily did not have time to react, a figure in a white robed and masked also appeared suddenly and fended off the sword of the woman before it could touch Lucia's back.


The shocked female attacker found the cloaked figure that appeared suddenly before him, immediately leaping backwards, before then putting up her combat horses.


Lucia who was surprised by the attack immediately drew her sword and joined the defensive horses.


While Lily who prioritized the safety of Aksa and Nata immediately made a protector in front of the two young men. The magic wall was transparent white.


"Who are you?" tanya Lucia looks alert from beside Nata. With occasional glances at the surroundings to make sure there were no other attackers.


While the Queen Guard Soldier was aware of the attack, immediately prepared and surrounded the female assailant.


"It turns out that the news about the Queen of Rhodesodia's secret guard is not just a mere thumb suction," said the female assailant was still seen wary of the soldiers who surrounded him. "Even the Cloak of Ma'at cannot be fooled," he added later.


"Oh, weren't you Ikhties, the woman I fought on the ship during the first Urbar raid?" aksa said when he recognized who the female attacker was.


Ikhties looks a little surprised Aksa recognizes him. "Oh, it turns out you still remember me, boy," he said later.


"Clearly, I can never forget" Aksa said in a boasting tone.


"It looks like today is my lucky day. I will kill you all, " said Ikhties with a big grin.


"Hey-hey, I didn't kill you back then. So there's no reason to kill me now, even if you want to take revenge on me," Aksa said hurriedly.


"That's your fault. Letting your opponent live. Even let it go, "reply Ikhties does not care about Aksa's words.


"Soldier, get that woman!" lucia's orders cut.


Ikhties only smiled slightly seeing the guard soldiers begin to move forward towards him with unsheathed swords.


It was seen that the woman did a short fast, before her body quickly began to fade and then completely disappeared. Invisible.


This was enough to make the guard soldiers shocked and confused. Until shortly after, one of the soldiers shouted along with a wound that formed on their neck. Like a sword.


And then the guard soldiers began to fall one by one until there was no more left.


"Hows it? Are you ready to die now?" The voice of Ikhties sounded even without a look.


Lily, who had been observing the movements of Ikhties, had now begun to understand some of the workings and patterns of the Magic Tool that the woman had. And therefore, now the little rabbit was ready to face the attack from the Ikhties.


But because it is considered much easier, this time Ikhteis deliberately changed his target from Lucia to Aksa who looks not too vigilant.


Appearing abruptly on Aksa's left side past Lily's artificial protector, Ikhteis slapped his sword rapidly right towards the young man's neck.


But Lily deftly fended off the sword with her magic wand. And counterattack before Ikhties can cast magic to make it disappear again.


Almost uncluttered, the bunny girl shot light magic with her free left hand right into the belly of the Ikhties.


And even though Ikhties was able to fend off the attack with the protection worn on the shin of her right leg, it was still the impact of Lily's light magic pushing the woman's body away backwards.


Then without giving time for the Ikhties to breathe, Lily immediately followed by unsheathing the sword-shaped light magic that appeared at the top of her magic wand.


"You okay, Aks?" asked Nata who had regained consciousness after being stunned to see the incident.


"Oh, almost once," said Aksa gulped while holding his neck that had just been saved from the slash. "My body feels all limp," he added, who almost fell down.


"So you're the White Lightning, the legend of that war?" ask Ikhties with gasps. The woman had just managed to dodge Lily's back-to-back attacks.


"Lucky I wore a lot of magic equipment. Otherwise, I would definitely not have survived such a crazy attack just now," added Ikhties who was still gasping.


Currently, Ikhties are not only equipped with Mystical Weapons. He also wore magical protective clothing, such as a robe, right arm protection, and shin guards on both legs.


"It seems like this conversation doesn't interest you" Ikhties said once again. His breathing sounded a little more regular. "Then, we start right away," he added before returning to do the slate to disappear.


Realizing that, Lily quickly darted forward to thwart the report. And the fierce fight came back.


Aksa, Nata, and Lucia stepped back to take cover from the battle, as then several ice bullets shot out from behind at the three men without them noticing.


For Lucia, the ice bullet that was sliding towards her was successfully repelled by a cloaked figure that appeared and disappeared with all of a sudden, while sliding towards Aksa and Nata successfully blocked nimbly by Lily even in the middle of her fight with the Ikhties.


"You all right?" ask Lily briefly. The one Aksa and Nata replied with a wild nod of fear.


"We better take shelter in the Iron Train so as not to overload Lily," said Nata gave an idea.


"Yes, yeah, that's a good idea. Come quickly, Lucia," Aksa asked in a hurry.


But just a few steps from where they headed to the Iron Train, dozens, even nearly hundreds of ice bullets were seen filling the sky ready to rain them.


And knowing this, Lily deftly cast magic to save her two masters.


The little rabbit jumped up against the ice bullets, before coming from the tip of his wand like a transparent dome that he used to destroy hundreds of ice bullets at once.


While seeing an opportunity, Ikhties wasted no time and immediately launched his attack towards Aksa. With the power of her new Mystical Weapon, the female body began to be seen shrouded in purple-colored rays, before then dashing very quickly towards Aksa from behind.


But with Lily's sharp intuition, the bunny girl was immediately aware of the Ikhties' plan. And with the magic thrust that she took out from the tip of her magic wand, Lily darted down and confronted right before the sword of Ikhties touched Aksa's back.


Aksa had not even had time to realize the whereabouts of the Ikhties behind her and how Lily tried to head off the woman's attack, moments later from the opposite direction, at a much lower angle, which was not the case, several ice bullets returned which this time only led to Aksa and Nata alone.


But because Lucia realized it, she immediately stabbed Aksa's body with her arm until it fell, and grabbed Nata's hand to avoid the bullet.


Two robed figures appeared to block the two ice bullets that this time shot towards Lucia. And then Lucia and Nata fell because they could not maintain their balance.


Lily who managed to push the Ichties back immediately jumped closer to where Lucia and her two masters had fallen. Then quickly put up a Protective Magic surrounding them.


It appears Aksa and Lucia are trying to get back on their feet immediately, while Nata is still lying down while groaning to endure the pain of his right arm being pierced by the ice bullet.


"Sheets?!" exclaim Aksa and Lucia almost simultaneously when seeing the condition of the young man.


While Lily still looks focused on maintaining her Guard Magic which is now starting to be battered all out by more ice bullets.


"High level Freezing Magic" Lucia said as she realized the kind of magic that had broken through Nata's arm.


And without speaking again, Lucia immediately grabbed and clutched her hand to the tip of the ice bullet shaped like a stalactite before then forcefully pulling it from Nata's arm.


Nata shouted groaned as the magic bullet slowly moved out of his arm.


While Lucia's gloves start to appear frozen due to direct contact with the high-level Freezing Magic of the ice bullet.


While Aksa can only see with horror what his best friend is experiencing, without being able to do anything. He only gripped tightly Nata's left hand which was not injured.


Lucia immediately threw the ice bullet away once she managed to pull it out. And rushed to remove his gloves that had been completely frozen despite only touching the bullet for no more than a minute.


The hand behind the young queen's gloves had started to turn red, although it had not turned blue like Nata's arm.


Aksa immediately examined his best friend's arm after the ice bullet was lifted.


Nata himself stopped groaning. Now his body was squeezing and his breathing sounded irregular.


"Nat, do you hear me?" asked Lucia patting the little face of Nata with worry.
