Five minutes ago.
At that ti, the western front was undergoing a war as intense as the eastern front.
Looking at the unusually large number of monsters that were continuously climbing up from below the fog, Myra couldn't help but feel scared no matter how calm she was.
Because there are too many monsters.
Their magic was strong, but even if they wiped out a patch of monsters quickly, in the blink of an eye, monsters would fill that gap again.
Not only ra but also the others felt like the monsters here were endless.
The pressure is enormous on the students.
Still, they had to fight.
Myra's original goal was to quickly end this battle. However, upon entering the battlefield as a commander, she discovered how ridiculous this intention was.
The monsters seed endless, attacking relentlessly in their extre hunger and bloodlust. anwhile, the Magus had limited strength, and their stamina had been greatly depleted.
A quick strike and quick victory was the only basis that could help them win with certainty. But the circumstances here did not allow such a campaign to exist.
In the end, it all cos down to a battle of endurance.
Myra could only divide the students into two groups, taking turns blocking the monsters from climbing the wall. Although this would put a lot of pressure on the frontline students, the backline students could rest.
Being able to stop and rest for a while is a hard ti to co by.
Thus, the initial goal of a quick victory turned into a battle of endurance.
Scolding or anything else was useless, Myra could only hope in her heart that ra's side was okay.
But the situation is not very optimistic.
Myra originally planned to divide the students into three rotating groups, but when she saw the amount of monsters attacking, she was forced to cut it down to two groups.
Otherwise, Myra feared that the damage the Magus would cause would not be able to cover it all.
Suddenly.
A bolt of lightning struck down, instantly killing all the monsters that were clinging to the wall.
Everyone was stunned for a mont, they quickly turned their heads to look, and saw the silver-haired young man standing there, steady as a mountain.
His sharp golden eyes seed to be able to penetrate the fog, projecting into everyone's mind.
"Kain, you..."
Myra was about to say, "You're back." But she rembered the other students around, so she quickly changed her tone to "You've recovered."
Kain nodded, then looked around and asked.
"Where is ra?"
Seeing the large number of Magus gathered here, Kain thought that only the western battlefield was active.
However, the mont he saw Myra's expression stiffen, Kain instantly deduced sothing.
"Too reckless!"
He gritted his teeth and quickly turned away, not forgetting to clear another wave of monsters before leaving.
From the towering city wall, Kain jumped straight down.
Although he doesn't have the magic skill [Fly] like ra, he has another skill that allows him to move quickly.
[Thunder Flash].
From the na of this magic skill, its effects cannot be clearly understood. But this is indeed a very useful magic skill.
In the air, Kain's body was instantly covered in lightning, and in a flash, his figure disappeared from the spot and appeared on a rooftop.
This is a magic skill that increases movent speed. By stimulating and pouring the electricity flowing through his body, Kain can instantly increase his speed to an extrely high level.
This is the only magic skill belonging to the [Thunder Magic] system that puts pressure on the body, which makes it impossible for normal Magus to use it much.
However, if combined with [Enhancent Body], Kain can continuously use both of these magic skills in sync for a period of ti.
After relieving the pressure from the electric current on his muscles, heart, and nervous system, Kain continued to use [Thunder Flash] and dashed across the rooftop.
He kept making calculations in his head, but they all collapsed at the last minute.
Because from the odds, the possibility of ra being seriously injured or even dying is more than half the probability.
"Damned!"
Kain cursed softly.
In no ti, he had reached the defense line manned by ra, just in ti for ra to be sent flying.
With only about ten students behind wanting to move forward to provide support, they were already trying their best just to maintain the defense line. How could they possibly save ra who was deep in the enemy's position?
She didn't use [Air Magic] to block that dangerous attack, but instead used a mixture of [Air Magic], [Fire Magic], and [Earth Magic]. This was not a good thing at all, because [Fire Magic] wasn't sothing to block attacks with.
ra used all of it, because her perception had already lost control of the magic, what ca out was more like a struggle of instinct.
Instantly, this situation flashed across Kain's mind.
It made Kain feel like his heart was being squeezed so hard that he couldn't breathe.
"ra!"
Kain shouted and dove, but even when he called out, ra did not react at all.
Kain was anxious, but he could only turn his back on the monsters for now to protect her safety.
Suddenly, ra spoke up behind him.
"Kain, I'm sorry..."
Her voice was weak, cracked and broken. Kain trembled slightly, turning his head back in fear.
He saw her, who was technically unconscious, looking at him.
Though the focus of her pupils was unclear, Kain knew she was looking at him.
Because his heart rate was increasing rapidly.
"ra, I'm the one who should be apologizing."
Kain's voice seed to catch in his throat.
Actually, this is not a mistake.
He was not wrong, he only relied on each person's ability to help everyone survive.
This is what reason tells him.
But, the answer of the heart is completely opposite.
It's a contradiction, isn't it?
After all, he is still human.
He still can't deal with everything with 100% reason.

"I'm back."
Kain suddenly smiled and said.
Because he knew ra would be very reassured if he smiled like that.
Sure enough, her body imdiately relaxed from its fighting stance.
Kain ignored the screaming monsters around him, he cautiously approached her, picking her up princess style. Letting ra's head nestle into his chest.
She shifted a little, but not out of discomfort, but rather seed to be adjusting her position to make herself as comfortable as possible.
Then ra said dreamily.
"Kain, I'm a little tired, can I... get so sleep..."
Kain nodded slightly, his eyes filled with gentleness.
"Of course, you deserve it. Close your eyes, I've got it all here."
"Sleep well, ra."
Like a spell, ra was fast asleep, peaceful and calm, completely out of place with her surroundings.
Because thunder has struck.
[Thunder Descend].
Lightning struck, but instead of small bolts of lightning that sprang out like tree branches like [Thunder Summon], [Thunder Descend] caused a much larger shockwave.
Rough and large lightning bolts spread through the void, where anything caught in them was burned to the bone. Using this magic skill, Kain controlled the lightning and created two lightning spears.
Although extrely difficult to control, these two [Thunder Spear] shots had a very fast formation speed, fast enough to shorten the ti between drawing the lightning and the weapon forming.
The downside is that Kain has to release them almost imdiately.
Still, that was enough for the two Nightcrawlers that were right next to him.
A terrible explosion occurred, two giant monster corpses fell down.
Lightning spread out in all directions, but when it got close to Kain, it imdiately beca silent, of course, not even a small spark of electricity could reach ra.
To the monsters around him, Kain only gave them a cursory glance.
The lightning net of heaven and earth was constructed in the blink of an eye.
Lightning net covered the entire battlefield, there was no place to run, no place to hide.
The lightning bolts spun into [Thunder Bullets] that shot towards the monsters without stopping. There were monsters that tried to use the corpses of their own kind to get through, but Kain only responded to this weak resistance with another type of magic.
[Enhancent Magic].
The bright white lightning net with a hint of blue was gradually covered with a layer of barely perceptible light purple light. In an instant, the might of the entire lightning net was increased by a factor. The monsters' resistance and what they boasted about seed a bit pointless at this mont.
Another Nightcrawler appeared and charged. Kain paid no attention, not even using [Thunder Spear]. Nurous [Thunder Bullets] enhanced by [Enhancent Magic] pierced the monster's body.
Finally, it couldn't take it anymore, collapsing a few ters in front of Kain, its body emitting a burning sll.
The ten students should have been happy to see the monster repelled, but Kain's expression made them unable to help but feel scared.
