My Magical System - Chapter 272: Sneak attack or not

272 Sneak attack or not

Some 7-footer monster with cow-like heads crushed the remaining barricades and crumbled them completely.

Building those barricades wasn’t so easy. They needed enough earth and wood element users to produce wooden spikes and earth walls. And now, those barricades finally fell apart right in front of everyone’s eyes.

For everyone, seeing that, it seemed like their hopes were shattered. However, at this time, they have no choice but to fight and face the monsters bravely.

Haaaaah!

They just shouted their fear and courage to face the monsters that were scattered around by now.

Clang! Clang!

Scattered battles immediately took place right after.

Meanwhile, in the gate area of Dona Family Manor, another battle was also happening. A group of shady individuals in black attires were attacking the defensive wall of the mansion.

After a difficult fight against the monsters in which many of their comrades lost their lives, now these creatures suddenly came out to attack them.

…..

Who are they and why are they attacking us? What is their motive for doing this? One of the soldiers asked questions in his mind.

Some people in lousy black clothing suddenly appeared and attacked the soldiers and the few remaining monsters around.

They attacked even though most of the soldiers were still there and active. The soldier didn’t know if they were using the chaos to launch a surprise attack at them. But, if they truly wanted to launch a surprise attack, they should have waited when most of them were resting. But no, they attacked them while everyone was awake and active.

There were still about 200 and above soldiers along with some guards that were currently on top of the wall while there were only about 50 people in black.

The soldier’s group easily had the number advantage. In that sense, these people in black clothing were either idiots or just over-confident in their strength.

However,

When they started attacking, it turned out the latter was the correct answer. They easily dispatched the soldiers around them. They were very agile and strong.

Slash!

Argh!

After killing some soldiers around, a person in black walked in front of a shaking soldier.

Dammit! They are elites! A soldier cried out in his mind. He could not control his shaking hands after witnessing the overwhelming power these people showed.

“W-Who are you?” With beads of sweat trailing down his face, he summoned his courage and asked one of the people in black clothing. “Why are you doing this?” He added. Steam of smoke was coming out of his mouth as he spoke.

The soldier noticed the person in front of him was holding a sword which he believed was a rapier sword. However, there was red fluid dripping on its blade and tip.

That red fluid was blood from his comrade that this person killed just now. Since the person’s hood was pulled deeply, only the lower part of their face could be seen. So, he had no clue why they were attacking them despite the town being in a grave situation due to the monster’s attack.

The person’s mouth opened and said, “You don’t need to know. Just die.” After saying that, the person slightly raised in the air the rapier sword he or she was holding.

A woman? The soldier thought after hearing her. But that wasn’t important. No matter what gender the other party had, it didn’t change the fact that she was an enemy.

“F*ck off!”

The soldier gnashed his teeth and quickly pointed the tip of his spear in front of him. However, before the soldier could launch an attack, in a blink of an eye, the rapier sword drew a bluish arc in the air, directly decapitating the brave soldier.

The soldier could not even react due to the enemy’s speed. Before he knew it, his head already flew away from his body and blood bloomed. The thick furry leather hood he was wearing on his head did nothing to obstruct the sharpness of the rapier sword. It was cut along with his head.

Thud!

A dull thud was heard when his head landed on the snowy surface of the wall floor. Along with it, was a gushing sound of spraying blood from his headless body. The severed furry hood landed beside the head.

“They’re here!”

“The f*ck! Who are these people!?”

More soldiers and guards holding weapons and torches arrived on the wall surface.

“Oh, reinforcements have arrived. What are we going to do, lady?” Asked one of the men in black. In his hands was a pair of curvaceous knives. As he was asking, his gaze was directed in the direction of the person with a rapier sword.

Before replying, she looked around and said, “Isn’t that obvious? Let’s kill all of them.” It was an icy cold reply. A voice that was devoid of empathy.

A grin appeared under the hoods of all of them when they heard it. Then, they rushed and started killing everyone.

Even though the soldiers had an advantage in number, the enemies had an advantage in strength. Moreover, the soldiers were already exhausted from defending the wall, so they were not in top condition and were easily defeated by them.

The man with two curvaceous knives spun the two knives before hiding them under his robe.

Then, he looked around and let out air from his mouth. “Sigh. They are so weak. Not even a slight challenge,” he said.

The 200 and above soldiers along with guards did not last long. All of them fell unconscious, lying on a snowy surface atop the defensive wall.

“Well. They are just composed of low-class soldiers and some mansion guards. In any case, there are still some below,” said the person with a rapier sword as she flung her rapier in the air to get rid of the sticking blood on it.

Fwoosh~

With a slight whip of her rapier in the air, the blood that was sticking to it disappeared from it. Then, the blood smeared on the snowy surface beneath her.

Beside her, there was a gathering of black smoke. And right after that, a person in the same outfit as them materialized right where the black smoke was.

“Lady, the other group is already heading to the main house of Dona Gilbert. The civilians on the other hand are in the western part where the temporary shelter is located. I also heard there are some nobles among them,” the person said right after appearing.

She looked into the distance, towards the shelter. A smile suddenly creeped out under her hood.

“Let’s visit them after finishing our job here,” she said. Well, looking at it.

“Dammit. This was just another simple job,” said the man with two curvaceous knives. Then, along with their companions, they jumped off the wall and started attacking the soldiers below.

GUAAH!

Loud cries could be heard all over the area.

A few minutes later, Eman materialized on a nearby hill where he saw a town covered in snow.

“Is this the town that the Elder Dark Priest mentioned?” He asked in a mutter, and white smoke came out of his mouth when he said that.
