The Four Wheel Saga Book 1: THE LEGACY TRIALS
Chapter 14: Fish Out of Water 8
The bulwark-trio went into action almost instantly. Having been in thousands of battle drills, they moved through instinct, which seemed almost theatrical.
Hajime and Yuuta crouched into a squat as if poised to jump.
Megumin squealed aloud, making her raiki surge. Her arms bulged and turned a dark sepia color. She made a fist with her right hand, and raiki gathered around it like vapors. The maid warrior grunted again and punched the ground with a kitsu technique.
Tou-kitsu earthquake!
A tremor set off from the point of contact, rocking the pagoda on its foundations. Hakaku held onto the balustrade to maintain his balance. Hajime and Yuuta had made a coordinated jump with Megumin's technique and were in the air when the quake happened. The two other teams lost their balance and staggered to the ground like dolls. As soon as Hajime-Yuuta set foot again, they set off their kitsu sequences.
Hajime: “Doi-kitsu archer form!”
A flaming bow appeared in his grasp. He quickly loosened kitsu arrows at Hakaku.
Yuuta: “Zei-kitsu gale blast!”
A volume of air in front of him reeled into a violent twister and raced up towards the sundeck. From the other side, Daigo released a fistful of petty knives in an arc. Kafu sent his fire-shrews up the steps while Chiyo shot icicles flying.
Nadeko-Illumi-Masaki simply raced up the steps, dodging the attacks of others. Akako climbed a tree and hid in the foliage.
The purpose of the all-around siege was to keep Hakaku occupied long enough so that someone could touch the balustrade and win the contest. They had agreed earlier that whoever did would share the whale tokens with the rest of the group. It made sense to form an alliance when going up against someone of the rank of a kin-lord, no matter how many handicaps he provided them.
The weather in the area seemed to have changed. Such was the quantity of raiki being drawn out. The colorful elementals made it seem like a festival of lights.
The intended attacks converged. Hajime's fire arrows, Yuuta's twister, Daigo's petty knives, Kafu's fire shrews, Chiyo's icicles reached their target. But to everyone's surprise, the barrage simply passed through Hakaku. As if he were permeable. There was a shock wave of sorts as all the attacks met on the sundeck. Bricks and mortar shattered and exploded. But the impact was lost on Hakaku's body, which seemed to be not interacting with the surrounding chaos. The aspirants were stunned, unable to wrap their heads around what happened.
