The Great War of Rhodesia

35. Secret Attack II

While outside of Lily's Protective Magic, the Ikhties who were seen just finished doing the chant and were preparing to go back for the strike, were suddenly startled by a bolt of lightning from the sky just above where he was standing.

But fortunately, because of the power of the Magic Cloak he was wearing, Ikhties managed to survive the lightning strike, before then disappearing just like that.

While from a distance, Jean is seen racing her horse quickly towards the place where Lily put her Guard Magic. While Parpera who had just issued Lightning Magic to attack the Ikhties earlier, seemed to be sitting piggybacking behind Jean.

.

Upon arriving at Lucia's place, Parpera immediately took the initiative to chant a slightly larger magic dome to replace Lily's magic dome with dozens of ice bullets that still continued to attack.

And as soon as Parpera's protective dome is finished, Lily immediately cancels her magic and runs up to Aksa and Nata.

"How is he doing?" lily asked as soon as she found Nata's condition that looked weak. His eyes were full of guilt.

"At least the bullet with the high-level Freezing Shir has been successfully revoked" Lucia replied.

"High level Freezing Magic?" Lily repeated Lucia's words as if she was making sure.

"The "healer will not be able to recover his wound until the effects of his freezing disappear. But if you wait any longer, then the wound will..." Lucia seemed reluctant to continue her words.

While Aksa who was examining Nata's arm carefully, looked carefully touching some places around his wound that looked blue.

"What does this part feel like, Nat?" ask Aksa later. And Nata just shook his head weakly as an intercessor of answers.

"The reaction is the same as Deep Frostbite" Aksa said. This time to Lucia and Lily who look worried. "If indeed the magic of the defender is still active, then we need to keep the temperature stable and not increase down. We need towels, hot water, as well as painkillers from healers. Because the heating process will usually cause quite severe pain," he explained then which was suddenly cut by the screams of Jean who was running closer.

"Your Majesty! Is Your Majesty okay?" Jean looks very worried. "His Majesty's hand?!!" he cried again with more panic when he found Lucia's right hand that looked reddened.

"Oh, just in time. I'm fine, Jean. No need to worry," Lucia replied quickly, before then giving the order. "Now listen. Bring towels and warm water here. And also a healer and a healer for Nata. Now!"

And although Jean had just arrived and did not understand the situation, she immediately answered without thinking. "Okay, Your Majesty." After a quick look at the state of Nata.

"Oh, and don't forget to bring alcohol with you," Aksa added before Jean ran out of the protective dome over the part that Parpera accidentally opened.

The protective dome is still installed because the ice bullet attack has not stopped.

"Is he gonna be okay, Aks?" Lily asked worriedly.

"No need to worry, Lily. His arm will be fine. Just might leave a scar like a burn," Aksa replied trying to calm Lily and Lucia all at once.

Lily's face looked a little relieved after hearing the words from Aksa. Because he believed the young man's words.

"Then, may I ask His Majesty for help to take care of Aksa and Nata for a moment?" ask Lily suddenly.

"What are you going to do, Miss Lily?" asked Lucia who looked a little confused before replying.

"We have to stop this magic bullet attack," Lily replied in no detail.

But Lucia knows exactly what Lily's handak is doing. "alright. We will take care of them" the young Queen replied later.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Lily replied before walking out of the protective dome, and then darted away from sight.

Seeing Lily leave the protective dome alone, made the Ichties feel riled up. He has a feeling Lily is looking for the origin of the ice bullet attack. Which is his fellow Champion.

"It's urgent. Toxo will not be able to survive the White Lightning if only relying on his Mystical Weapon alone," Ikhties told himself before then decided to catch up with Lily and help his partner.

.

No more than 5 minutes later, the ice bullet stopped. A sign Lily has managed to find the person behind the attack, and defeat him.

.

They are already in the Iron Car. Aksa and the Physicians were seen taking care of Nata who was stretched across the chair just across from Lucia sitting. It is also seen that some Physicians and Healers were treating Lucia's right hand which had previously come into contact with ice bullets.

"The "magic bullet was produced by the Mystical Arrow of Pinaka. Once it hits something, the bullet will freeze it very quickly. Revoking or destroying it will not directly stop the impact of its freezing." Parpera gave an explanation after confirming a magic bullet that some were still freezing the ground and grass around where it lay.

"This freezer magic can last for hours before disappearing" continued Parpera, who was sitting next to the door. "However, even though retracting it was a very good decision, His Majesty still should not be rash to directly use such a hand." There was a sound of the witch woman scolding Lucia intently.

"Because not many can survive this kind of magic. Even if they survive, they'll lose their body parts" he said.

"I'm sorry, Miss Parpera. I wasn't thinking clearly, back then," replied Lucia looking regretful. "I immediately felt panic when I saw the possibility that Nata would not survive," he continued to give an excuse.

Parpera was silent. Although she was really angry at Lucia's actions, she could still understand her feelings and the reason why her Queen had acted that way.

"You don't need to worry, Your Majesty. Nata will be nothing. Even a defect will not," said Aksa trying to calm Lucia who is seen now her palm is wrapped.

"True, you must not waste time worrying about this, Your Majesty. You still have a war to win" said Nata suddenly, who sounded like he was hissing.

"Your Majesty will waste my sacrifice and that of everyone, if not immediately refocus and resolve this war" he added, this time accompanied by a faint smile on the face.

Hearing Nata's words, made Lucia realize. He still has a responsibility he has to complete.

And after a long breath, Lucia re-enforced her body. "I think you're right. Hang on a little more, I'll end this war soon" Lucia said later.

It was seen that Nata raised his left thumb slowly in response to the young queen's words.

"Why am I so jealous of Nata now?" chirps Aksa then.

"Miss Parpera, stay here to protect Aksa and Nata" Lucia said later. "But before that, order the witches to prepare for the cancellation of the city's Protective Magic" he continued with orders.

"Sorry Your Majesty, but as we head this way, there are still some Champions who have not been defeated." Parpera provided information that she had not yet reported.

"There is no need to worry about Champions and other things" Lucia replied firmly. "To be faster, ask the Combat Train to send the witches to the necessary positions."

Hearing Lucia give the order firmly, made Parpera no longer feel doubt. "Okay, Your Majesty," he replied quickly, before then running towards one of the nearby Combat Trains.

Then Lucia was seen coming out of the Iron Train with her right hand wrapped in bandages was strong, while walking towards her horse.

"Your Majesty?" Jean soon catches up with Lucia after seeing her get off the Iron Train.

Lucia did not answer. He started riding his horse and fixed the position of his sword.

"Your Majesty, don't be rash. You can't go down directly into battle" Jean said, trying to ban Lucia.

"Jean, get ready on your horse" said Lucia, ignoring Jean's ban.

"But Your Majesty..."

"It's orders. If you don't obey him, then I will relinquish your position as my personal bodyguard. And I will still go to the battlefield alone" said Lucia firmly.

Hearing this, Jean looked as if she was cursing in her heart. He quickly jumped on his horse's saddle. "I am ready, Your Majesty," he said later in a displeased tone.

"Our target is the Champions. Go, go!" lucia's orders while pulling the reins of her horse. "Rhapsodia, assault!" he then shouted while pulling the sword from its sheath.

Seeing the figure of Lucia who drove her horse with a shout energetically penetrated the battlefield, making the soldiers join the spirit. The retaliatory cries of the Rhapsodia Army were heard boisterously defeating the sound of clashing swords and the sound of explosions.
