My Magical System

Chapter 183: Kanna’s feeling

Seven people were charging towards him. And they all had something in common. They have demonic auras that are hard to perceive if the person’s breakthrough level was low.

Well, mostly, that was the case. However, there were exemptions to that. People who had an inborn talent for having high senses could perceive this demonic aura.

On the other hand, Eman didn’t need to become a gifted individual to sense it. He could easily boost his [Sense] stat through [Status Screen].

There was no fear in his face; there was only excitement. A great value of points and experience was coming towards him. Who would not feel excited knowing that?

After drenching the sword with holy water, he charged as well, going to approach them. While running towards the enemy, he killed the bandit mobs on his way. He even produced hardened soils around him and fired it to those farther from him.

If he made a quick count, he estimated that there were only 20 soldiers left active, and about 50-70 bandits around, in addition to these seven demons.

Right, the soldiers were losing the fight.

.....

Even Demyul and his men were now lying on the ground.

Eman noticed some familiar figure who was still actively fighting against the bandits, the two guards with him all this time. But the two of them were now bloodied all over and were heavily breathing.

But, the two of them were also taken down by the bandits.

Eman waved his hand to his right. After doing it, five hardened soils shot towards the bandit mobs a few yards away from him. Random low groaning sounds followed sooner.

The hardened soils were like missiles as they traveled to find their intended targets.

With tears in her eyes, Soldier Kanna was staring at the soldiers who fell one by one.

Right, it was as they already guessed. This mission was a sure way towards hell. In the first place, the odds of winning and losing were too wide. A hundred soldiers against almost a thousand enemies? Who in their right mind would think that they could win.

Such!

A tear fell from Soldier Kanna’s eyes. She would be going to die in this place. It wasn’t the ideal place she imagined as her deathbed. Also, she was still young. And she would be dying without being able to experience a relationship. Since she chose this kind of profession, she already expected that time would come late.

But right at this moment, Kanna knew that dream of her that someday she would fall in love, then build a family with him, that day would never ever come.

She wasn’t a picky person. It’s just her priority was to become the empire’s one of the best soldiers someday.

Many gentlemen reached out their hands to her. As a daughter of the empire’s gallant general, her family was well established. But that time, her main goal was to follow her father’s footsteps, to become a gallant soldier, and bring honor to the empire.

That’s why, until now, she was a loner.

Suddenly, her eyes caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

“Wait, that’s...”

“It was him! The commander!”

“Wait, no! Please, run, run away!”

“Those guys... they are so strong!”

“Please, commander! Save yourself!”

Soldier Kanna said, but her voice was so shallow. Just like a moaning sound. So no matter how she warned him, her voice could not reach him.

But Kanna did not lose hope and continued saying her warning. Beads of tears were falling from her eyes.

That’s right. This commander of them, he was very mysterious. He was younger than her, yet he already commanded an army. At first, everyone thought that he was incompetent. Even she was thinking the same. There was even a time when she was questioning his majesty’s decision.

But, after getting acquainted with him, she started to admire him. Under his commands, the mission was so smooth. However, because of it, the others thought that the mission wasn’t truly difficult. So they started to go against his command. Before they knew it, it was already late.

She asked him to run away and escape. But his reply was, “Well, even though it wasn’t my fault, to begin with, I was half to blame for failing to notice my men’s lack of importance towards the mission. So, I must stay and die together with all of you.”

Such a young man, yet so courageous!

This same line, she heard his father spoke it when their convoy was ambushed by unknown enemies. At that time, she was still a five years old kid. And their family was traveling towards their estate after a long vacation from her grandparents’ estate.

That same line, she could not forget it. It was embedded in her soul!

After hearing his reply, a feeling she never felt before secretly blossomed within her.

“C-Commander...” she called out in a weak guttural sound while reaching her hand in his direction.

Meanwhile, she was staring at the figure, who was bravely rushing alone towards multiple enemies.

But soon, Kanna was dumbfounded.

The commander produced multiple hardened soils around him and fired to surrounding enemies.

It was fast and powerful. Only mages could do such things. Right, the commander was a mage! She remembered he did the same thing when some bandits tried to ambush them in the canyon.

So killing multiple opponents from a long distance was a specialty of him as a mage. Also, she noticed an object in the commander’s hand. While he was shooting those hardened soils at the enemies, he was also aiming the unusual object at the other enemies. Then after a strange sound, one of the enemies fell to the ground.

“Eh?!”

“What the hell is that?!”

It didn’t take him long to dispatch all the bandit mobs.

However,

“Commander, don’t fight those seven!” She tried to shout a warning, but still, her voice was only at her throat.

Tears kept falling from her eyes.

“T-those seven... They have the taboo ability... They are demons...” Soldier Kanna said weakly.

Right, those seven were unkillable creatures. Only the summoned heroes and the people who studied holy spells could kill them.

Right at this moment, after killing all the mobs, she saw the commander charged towards those creepy enemies.

Soldier Kanna pulled her body. She needed to warn him!

But it was too late. The seven demons already leaped in the air and sent their attacks to him.

The ground trembled at the impact, and dust hovered, blocking her vision of him.

Kanna’s expression turned grim, and her face became pale.

“C, Commander...” she called out while reaching her hand.

She could even hear the menacing laughter of those people.

“!!”

Out of a sudden, the laughter stopped. “Eh!?” Then she heard a surprised utterance.

Then,

Thud, thud, thud,

Something flew and rolled on the ground.

“A... head?!”

“Wait, it wasn’t the commander’s head!”

“It’s the head of one of the enemies!”

Kanna’s surprise exclamation. After that, powerful energy with an unusual color burst out from the commander’s position.

It took the enemies by surprise and had them thrown a few meters away.

Standing in front of them with his body surrounded with bright red energy, slowly turning into crimson color, was the person who commanded all the soldiers, the young commander!

“Shithead! How dare you!” The woman who choked Kanna recently bellowed at him.

Then, they charge once again; that surprise just wasn’t enough to deter them.

However, before they reached him, his figure suddenly disappeared.

“Eh!”

The next second, “Gyah!” They heard a cry. When they glanced, another head flew in the air, saying goodbye to his body.

What the f***!
