Chapter 39: Sharing experience

Hugo and Roan split to the sides once they saw the gates ahead. The other soldiers joined them and soon dashed to deal with the enemies around. The blood mages in the area had been dealt with, but there were plenty of mercenaries ahead.

Rain slowed down the platform since some enemies might be waiting to ambush them and waited until his father and uncle approached the gates from the sides. However, soon Rain felt a shiver, but he didn\'t notice anything weird around… until he looked behind and saw a massive fireball taking over the street and flying toward them and the gate.

"Oh fuck…" Rain said while drinking the whole potion and creating a tornado of water and wind behind them.

The clash between a swirling water tornado and a massive fireball unleashed an earth-shattering explosion. The impact was like a collision of titans, sending shockwaves through the air and reverberations through the ground.

When the water tornado and the fireball collided, the impact was cataclysmic. An explosion erupted, releasing an intense burst of light and energy. The explosion illuminated the surroundings with a dazzling brilliance, momentarily transforming the night into day.

The sheer force of the explosion sent shockwaves crashing through the air, shaking the earth beneath their feet. It was a powerful roar, like the simultaneous clash of a thousand thunderstorms, as if nature itself had unleashed its wrath upon the world.

The explosion almost reached Rain and the others, but he stopped that by turning the earth platform into an earth sphere. The blast still pushed them away for several dozens of meters, but before they could collide against the gate, Rain stopped the sphere. Rain made it land on the ground and made the whole thing fall apart.

"Ah… my head," Rain said while a massive headache was bothering him. "Is everything all right?"

"Yes, thanks to you, Rain," Leiah said while hugging Dana and Kei tightly.

Rain felt that he needed a break for many days after that, but he couldn\'t drop his guard now. His father and uncle and some other soldiers arrived and checked on them, but soon they sighed in relief when they confirmed that everything was right.

"We have secured the perimeter; spread the word that the East gate is open, and bring your friends and family," Hugo declared. "... I guess Lorence didn\'t leave. He is a cautious one… usually, he would use the sewers, but he should know that Leo is aware of that exit as well."

People began to leave the city by crossing the gate. Still, it didn\'t take long for some enemies to show up while riding horses. This time, they came a bit more prepared; they had staves that had colorful crystals on them.

"Shit, this isn\'t going to end…" Hugo muttered.

"Rain, do that thing that you have been training on us," Roan said. "It can last for a minute, right? That will be more than enough."

Hugo\'s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at his brother with a mixture of confusion and concern. At first, he thought that Roan had gone mad, behaving in a way that seemed irrational and unpredictable. However, his doubts quickly turned into astonishment as he witnessed something extraordinary.

Orbs made of earth materialized around him, spinning and swirling with remarkable speed. They moved with an uncanny precision, darting through the air as if guided by an invisible force.

Hugo\'s perception of his brother\'s child shifted dramatically at that moment. He realized that Rain possessed a hidden talent, a unique connection to the elements. It was a power that surpassed anything Hugo had ever witnessed before; not even his son was that good. The sight of those earth orbs, their swift and precise motions, shattered any doubts he had.

"We can use those staves as well; rather, we will need to escape and keep this gate open," Roan declared. "Let\'s go."

"Ugh, all right," Hugo said after he shook his head.

Faster than the wind, those two brothers dashed toward the enemy\'s lines. The others didn\'t know what to do since they didn\'t receive orders, so they decided to guard the gate and watch.

The enemies used the staves to fire a bunch of fireballs at them, but their speed and power seemed really mediocre. Regardless, the fireballs were easily stopped by the earth orbs orbiting around them. Once they confirmed that their defense was secured, Roan and Hugo didn\'t hesitate in charging faster and cutting down the enemies with their horses.

"Even while just offering support, I can still gain experience, huh," Rain thought.
