The Magician of Sound

"Are you seriously asking me to fix this problem as well?" Kai gritted his teeth when he realized what just happened.

"What happened?" Michelle and Ayaka turned serious.

"We have been had!" Kai looked around, wondering what to do. If he was too late to decide, Evan might die… Or their objective is to kidnap him?

"Silva, I will leave the front line to you for a while." Kai decided to retreat back to the wall and went to Tasha. "I need your Teleportation Magic immediately."

"What happened?" Tasha frowned as Isabelle and Sofia came closer, wondering what happened.

"The base is under attack," Kai informed them. "I don't have time to explain, so I am planning to go there right now."

"Wait! You can't leave the battlefield. The soldiers' morale will plummet if you, the acting general, leave." Sofia grabbed his hand.

Kai clenched his fist. He was already not in the mood after listening to what happened in the base, especially to Evan. However, Sofia's serious face made him hesitate. It was true that the defense would gradually crumble if he left the battlefield. And from what he heard inside the base, General Abec had died. Hence, no one was able to handle the army other than him.

Even so, if he didn't go to Evan, he would…

Kai was contemplating what to do before Sofia suddenly said, "I think it's better to give this mission to us. We will go to the base and suppress the enemies. Judging from your look, they seem to be a third party, unrelated to these magical beasts. That's why Julia and I will tag along with your Lion Group and Eagle Group. Even though I don't look like it, this is my specialty."

Although she didn't like this woman, Michelle couldn't help but agree with her opinion. "That's right. We might be students, but we have two S rank magical beasts and three Zodiacs with us. It should be enough."

Kai closed his eyes for a second before letting out a sigh. "Fine."

He realized that the enemy really chose the perfect time to act. It was as if they were collaborating with the magical beasts.

"Call Nicholas and the others and have Tasha teleport all of you to the base." Kai finally gave his order.

"Alright." Michelle disappeared and brought back five people with her.

"The enemies are inside the base right now. Your top priority is to save Evan from their clutch. Don't say it to anyone, but the general is dead. That's why you can only rely on yourself and think they are enemies until proven otherwise." Kai warned them. "And one last thing, your captain is Michelle.

"Understood." They nodded, and Tasha used her Teleportation Magic.

Kai looked at them before he realized the enemy's movement. "Wait—!"

Before he could warn them, they already disappeared. He shook his head and sighed before going to the battlefield.

Silva came to him and asked, "Sir…"

"It's fine. I have handled everything. Though we need to adjust our strategy a little bit." Kai nodded. "Are you ready?"

"Yes, Sir!" Silva nodded with a solemn expression.

…

Meanwhile, Michelle and the others arrived inside the base and pointed their weapons at all directions while looking around to see any abnormalities.

"!!!" They gasped when they saw many dead bodies scattered around the base, and it was still fresh.

"Go to the medical room first. Evan should be there." Michelle ordered them.

"I have seen the room. This way." Isabelle nodded and led the group with her weapon. They couldn't advance too fast because there might be ambushes around and finally realized how much they relied on Kai's hearing ability. No, they just got used to Kai's hearing ability for the past year, but they still had the basic ability to handle this type of situation, so what they were doing was still considered normal.

The group made their way toward the medical bay, only to find a broken wall with blood on it. They looked around and realized that there were ten people in this room.

"Looking at the conditions of the soldiers, they shouldn't be able to move around and get butchered like that. I had experienced Evan healing technique, and I realized how tired I was after getting the treatment. Considering their injury, I am sure they had no fight before dying… That's why I am… also sure that all of these… were from the fight against Evan." Isabelle said while clenching her fists. Blood rushed to her brain as she gnashed her teeth.

"Isabelle. If you can't keep your calm down, I will need to ask you to stand by inside this base or go back to the battlefield." Michelle grabbed her shoulders tightly. She was also angry to see that Evan was beaten like this. Even so, they still needed to keep calm in this situation, and Michelle did her job as the captain right.

Isabelle took a few deep breaths before she nodded. "I'm sorry."

"The only problem is where we should go? Looking at this situation, Evan hasn't died yet… So, it will be up to us to chase him." Michelle looked at them and somehow noticed Tasha had gone somewhere.

"When we were outside, I could see a great blaze. It must be where the kidnappers went!" Sofia said. "They went west!"

"…" Michelle twitched her eyebrows. There was no way she could trust her words so easily.

Suddenly, Tasha came back. "I just asked Kai. He said the enemies went to the west of this base."

"!!!" Michelle and the others widened their eyes as they looked at Sofia in astonishment.

On the other hand, Sofia pouted as no one actually believed her.

Michelle narrowed her eyes and thought, 'Is this the rumored Sofia? The one that purely acts with instinct? She can see and feel what other people can't? No, I should say this is her sixth sense?'

"I understand. We will pursue the enemies right now." Michelle nodded.

Tasha snapped her finger and teleported them outside the base.

Michelle led the group and started pursuing the enemies. "We only have the general location of the enemies. So, we will relay you in locating them."

"Hehe… This is my specialty." Sofia grinned. Julia could only shake her head. Sofia was always like this from small. She often went toward this so-called 'Blaze' of her, and all of them somehow turned out to be something important. That was why she had become so crucial to EU Base. With her Zodiac ability, Sixth Sense, and Ice Magic, EU Base would be a fool if they didn't treasure her.

After a few minutes of running straight…

"It's enough. They are turning this way." Sofia instructed as she followed the great blaze in her eyes.

Michelle immediately followed her direction without hesitation.

"This direction… Isn't there a national park in front of us?" Michelle furrowed her eyebrows.

"That's right. Why would they choose an open area like this?" Isabelle furrowed her eyebrows.

Before they could plan their strategy, they had arrived at their destination as Sofia abruptly stopped.

"What happened?" Michelle and the others stopped as well and looked at her.

"Hmm?" Sofia suddenly frowned as she noticed something odd.

"What is it?"

"There is still a blaze ahead of us, but there are many smaller blazes around us… In other words, we are surrounded." Sofia looked around and calculated everything in her mind. "There are around one hundred of them while the great blaze has three people, but far stronger than the others. Be careful."

As she said so, one hundred people gradually made their appearances.

"We have been had. Their goal is most probably Evan and us. At that time, they are going to threaten Kai… The question is, who dares to do something like this?" Michelle gritted her teeth.

"Tasha. We might need your power." Sofia suddenly grabbed Tasha's hands.

Before Tasha could reply, the humans that surrounded them suddenly turned into magical beasts as they roared to the sky.

*Roar!*

The combined roars were shaking the ground as Michelle started to sweat. 'What should I do in this situation?'

"They are Zodiacs as well, right? But the difference is they have turned into magical beasts so suddenly… Like what happened to the one we fought not long ago." Ayaka raised her spear while whispering to the group.

"Tasha. We need your power. Your blaze can engulf their blaze." Sofia still had the same confidence. "If it's you, we can win."

Tasha furrowed her eyebrows and thought for a moment. "No. It's not the time yet."

"Not the time yet?" Sofia furrowed her eyebrows before she saw the same powerful blaze coming from the sky.

"Purgatory Sword!" A familiar female voice resounded across the region as the group turned around.

Five White Swords flew down, specifically toward the failed Zodiacs.

This sneak attack came at the perfect time, preventing the enemies from moving until the five swords killed five of them. A female figure landed on the ground before a huge white magic circle appeared a few meters above their heads.

Tasha smiled and said, "Do you think I didn't do anything this whole time? She requested me to update our current situation and finally rushed to this place…"

Michelle suddenly remembered how Tasha often played around with her communication device during this vacation. "So, that's why you seemed to be occupied with your device…"

"Hmph. You smart-ass. I just thought that little Gemini over there would make a ruckus, but to think there is another party that wants to destroy my beloved student's peaceful vacation. As his teacher, I should help him in a situation like this." It turned out that the one who came just now was Kai's Teacher, Ria Ross.

"Hmph. Do you bring the reinforcements?"

"Is there any need for it? I will show you why I am scarier than the army!" Ria Ross smirked as she formed a sword on each hand.
