The Magician of Sound

"You are a strong opponent." Kai closed his eyes before hearing the sound of a trumpet from his communication device.

In the middle of the battlefield appeared a huge 'Congratulations' word.

Shirotsuka Sanae announced it to all of them.

"Congratulations on winning. I will wake all you up from the simulation chambers in a few seconds."

"Thank you for taking the command, Teacher." Kai smiled.

"Nah, I didn't contribute anything in this match." She shrugged, walking toward the simulation chambers and pushing a button to wake them up.

"!!!" Kai and the others came back to reality at the same time, and Sanae opened the chambers' doors.

"Haiz, I need to reveal three magic this time." Tasha sighed.

"Haha… The twins are easy to beat and think you reveal three magic for such an easy opponent…" Michelle chuckled, stretching her hands before turning to Kai. "Though I am interested in knowing those magic, the most interesting one is Kai's magic. What is that magic, Kai?"

Kai pondered for a while, glancing at Evan and Sanae before shaking his head. "I think it's better not to disclose it for everyone's safety."

Michelle and Tasha instantly recognized his meaning and stopped asking.

"Fine. It's better that way, maybe you can tell me in our private time." Michelle said while licking her lips. "Hurry up and become 18 years old already…"

"Wait!" Tasha stopped her, not letting her take another step forward. "I should be the one who teaches him that. I am his sister after all."

"Huh? Of course, this is a girlfriend's privilege. Besides, you are his sister..."

"I am adopted, so it's legal." She snorted.

"Alright, enough." Kai sighed before turning to Ayaka with a serious expression.

She gulped down, preparing her heart to receive Kai's anger. Even though she was scared, she still looked him in the eyes, not regretting her action.

To her surprise, Kai did not say anything for a few seconds before putting his hand on her head. "I have many things to tell you, but for now, good job… and thank you."

The others rolled their eyes away, remembering what Ayaka did. Ayaka could only clench her fists, not knowing why she wanted to cry. This might be the first time for her to experience something like this. The pain she felt earlier, the efforts she put in, all of it felt worth it at this moment.

The feeling was more intense than when her parents or grandparents praised her from achieving something good. She finally broke the last chain that bound her from making a particular decision.

After Kai patted her head, he walked to Evan, Michelle, and Tasha, "All of you too. Thank you for your hard work."

"Well, how about we celebrate it? My treat. I have a good place for that and made a reservation earlier." Michelle suggested, smiling.

"It's a good idea." Kai agreed.

"Yeah. I will eat until I am full. Maybe I should bring some for mom and dad…" Tasha nodded, wondering how much she needed to bring home.

"I don't have any objection. It's a good opportunity to relax with everyone… Just say this is for that birthday party." He nodded.

"I don't mind as long as I get good wine." Sanae licked her lips.

Ayaka did not make a sound as she just stared at them, clenching her hand like she was thinking something serious. Kai noticed this and turned around, stretching his hand with a smile, "You are going too, right?"

She blinked a few times and reached his hand, smiling brightly. "Yes."

"Alright. We are going to a party today. Let's go." Kai glanced at Michelle.

"Sure. Follow me. It's not that far from the school." She nodded and walked toward the door, opening it. To their surprise, a group of five were walking in front of their room, staring at them with a surprised look.

The two groups had the same thought running inside their brain, 'What the heck with this timing?'

This was another meeting between Lion Group and Eagle Group. Michelle said awkwardly, "Well… I will close the door first, so all of you can walk first. Don't mind us."

"Wait." Before Michelle could close the door, Isabelle stopped her. She walked forward, glancing at Kai a few times. Kai and the others frowned, wondering if she wanted to annul the contract or whatsoever. Instead, she just bowed her head and said, "I apologize for picking a fight with you guys. Although it was only for taunting you, I truly went too far.

"Don't worry. I will keep my words and won't bring you guys trouble. I admit you guys have completely defeated us."

Kai was surprised to see her admitting like this, wondering what he should say in this situation. Suddenly, Evan broke his silence. "This is why you should never challenge anyone just like that. You have been like this for a long long time."

"Shut up. I don't want to hear from the likes of you." She snorted, glaring at Evan. "You can only stay in the safe area while letting your teammate fight, you should be ashamed."

"Oi oi. I am healing them and supporting them as much as possible." He rebuked her claim, recalling the information, healing and the other supports he had given to the team. "Heh…"

She looked at him with disbelief, taunting his pride.

"You…" Evan gritted his teeth, seeing how unreasonable she was. He did not notice that his words were precise and too hurtful, making the other want to fight back.

"Anyway…" Kai walked between them, stopping the fight and saying his piece. "Your Eagle Group is strong. If I don't utilize many tactics and other risky factors, we would not have won. We would crumble as long as we lose one of our teammates, so it is a great fight."

"Uhm." She nodded, thinking whether she could ask about that last magic of his. After all, no one knew that she experienced something really bad earlier, forcing her to go down. In the end, she shook her head and said, "Anyway, we will be going now."

"Yeah." He nodded, waiting for a while until they disappeared from his sight. "Let's go."

"Ooh!" The others nodded awkwardly before Michelle led them to a certain restaurant...

On the other hand, their fight completely brought chaos in the auditorium.

"This… We… We might have witnessed the birth of new top groups… No, I should say this group might destroy the other top groups, including Dawn and Golden. Ah, I am speechless even though I need to say more about them." Diego scratched his head, thinking of what to say.

"Well… There are many variables in this group. Each individual is great. Kai would certainly not let any of you slip past his detection range. Michelle is already well-known for her power, while Tasha is still holding back her real power. If you can't defeat Evan, it will be hard to defeat them. Last but not least, it is the unpredictable Kudo Ayaka. I wonder what kind of stunt she will pull next time. Though I doubt they will accept another group battle." Yuki explained the Lion group's strength.

She might have some doubts about Ayaka, but her stunt made her think otherwise. She just sighed, hoping that lass would not pull that kind of stunt in the real world. Sanae was there, so she thought it would be fine. However, she needed to give Sanae a message, reminding her about the last incident that almost killed her.

"With this, the Lion Group reaches rank 145th with 34890 points while the Eagle Group falls to 10th place. And I, Diego, thank you for coming to watch the battle. Have a great day."

"On behalf of other teachers, I command you to take a note of this battle as this will prove to be a good example. I feel your homeroom teacher will analyze it in the class." She added.

In the corner of the room, a handsome man crossed his arms, looking at the screen. It was still displaying the participants' pictures. He brushed away his blue hair and closed his eyes.

One of his subordinates came to him, "What should we do about this group? Their existence is threatening our group."

"Hmph. Michelle Graham and Tasha Carter might be powerful, but their weakness will be Kudo Ayaka and Evan Young. As long as we can defeat them, the battle is ours to take. As for that Kai Carter… he is an enigma. Still… Sound Magician… I can think of a way to restrict his ability." He explained with a serious expression. "Hmph. They might be a strong group, but our Golden Group is stronger."

On the other corner, there was also another group consisting only of females. Their leader was a pretty girl with purple hair tied into a ponytail. "What should we do? I think we should prepare to challenge them as to keep the pride of the third year."

The leader shook her head. "Prepare is good, but without us moving, the Golden group will certainly make a move first. Besides, we can't be certain that they would challenge our group and vice versa.

"Just take a look at Michelle Graham. She never really cares about the points ranking, so I assume she is not searching for a position. If I take a look at their leader, Kai Carter, she has the same eyes as her. So, relax."

Her teammates could only look at her with a confused expression, trusting their leader.

She nodded before secretly furrowing her eyebrows. The magic that forced Isabelle to the ground piqued her curiosity. There was no sound, sign, or whatever, so it really confused her. She decided to investigate it later together with the Carter Family.
