The Copy Mage

Chapter 218: Young Group Of Talents Part 2

"I will crush you all and make you pay for harming someone I respect," bellowed Cole.

In truth, Cole preferred to stay calm, collected, and quiet, but once his Innate Ability was activated, he was a completely different person.

His entire demeanour would change, but though it, he could unless great power and surpass his limits in battle, which was why his Innate Ability was so amazing.

Launching a powerful punch towards the mercenary group leader using the Gorilla Strike Skill that he had been practising, Cole expected that the mercenary leader would be blown away.

His punching power was unbelievably high since he had tempered his arms the most and trained in numerous fist techniques and punching styles.

Matched with his Hardening Innate Ability, which also allowed him to increase his physical capabilities slightly, he was expecting his attack to greatly damage his opponent, even if they were much stronger than him.

However, the mercenary group leader blocked it with his arms with relative ease and stood his ground without even flinching.

Despite the shock of his attack not doing much damage, it merely made Cole even more eager to face and attack the mercenary group leader.

Although Cole was in a wild state that caused him to desire to battle and face strong opponents, he still retained his thoughts and had almost complete control of his actions.

Taking down the mercenary group leader alone would be an almost impossible feat for any of them after sensing and experiencing the power of his body for himself.

However, that wasn't what Cole was truly aiming for.

If he could preoccupy him and Milo aided him in preoccupying another mercenary, they could create an opening to take down the royal academy students that were still threats to them and could sneakily attack them while they were facing the mercenaries.

Cole unleashed a barrage of fists towards the mercenary group leader, who blocked or parried them all using martial arts, then suddenly Cole ducked down without reason, along with all the others.

Matilda had been training to control her Sonic Cry Innate Ability, and she still hadn't reached a level of control where she could use it without harming her companions, so instead, she learnt to release a Sonic Cry that wouldn't injure or harm those that we bellow her mouth.

Cole and the others already knew about that, while Clay and Damian were already low since Clay was crouched with his palms on the ground, while Damian was sitting cross-legged and recovering.

She released a powerful scream that greatly surpassed the power of the scream that she used against Trevor, and since she was afraid for her own life and that of her friends, the power of the scream was incredible.

Her Sonic Cry could be controlled to an extent, but its true power could only be unleashed when she felt afraid, anxious or was under immense pressure.

The mercenaries and the two royal academy students were too slow to react and didn't know what to expect, so were launched sliding backwards from the power of the scream.

Along with that, blood flowed from their ears that had suffered a great shock and at that moment they could not hear, while they were also disorientated and dizzy.

"This is our chance. Take out those two students in the back," they all exclaimed at once.

Clay formed a ramp in front of both Milo and Cole and they charged up it, then jumped over the disorientated mercenaries and landed before the royal academy students that were also affected greatly by Matilda's Sonic Cry.

There were all intelligent youths with great combat prowess, making it so that they were easily able to form a powerful team that fought coherently, and they had created the opening they needed for themselves.

Milo and Cole both struck downwards towards one of the two royal academy students and their full power downwards blow to the head was enough to instantly knock them out.

They would be unconscious and were also likely to have suffered other physical and mental implications after being dealt such a powerful blow to the head, so Cole and Milo were confident that they didn't have to worry about them joining the battle.

"Two down, three more to go," the young group of talents all mumbled to themselves.

"Hmph. You guys are quite capable and interesting, but still aren't powerful enough to defeat us," said the mercenary group leader.

Cole could attest to that after striking him with his full power and not dealing him any damage, however, he was by no means backing down and knew that they would not receive reinforcements.

Their only option was to fight, and Cole couldn't hope for a better opportunity to test himself and surpass his limits.

Since they were behind the mercenaries who had been dazed slightly because of Matilda's Sonic Cry, Milo and Cole went to strike them from behind.

However, both of their attacks failed.

Each of them aimed for one of the two mercenaries that stood beside the mercenary group leader, hoping to also take them down so that they could all fight the powerful leader.

However, they had underestimated the other two mercenaries, who swiftly turned around and grabbed the fists of their attack, before flinging them over their back.

Milo and Cole were lifted into the air and slammed into the ground.

The mercenaries had been able to do so with ease and used their momentum against them, which Milo and Cole never expected would occur as their attack was fast and from behind them.

"If you kids can beat these two, you can have a shot at me. " 

The mercenary leader was still nonchalant as he observed everything that occurred with an intrigued and entertained expression.

The two royal academy students that had hired him had been taken down, but he couldn't care less about them.

All he was after was his own entertainment, which the young group of talent seemed to be providing.
