The Magician of Sound

"It's the next mission. Call Evan back now." Kai sighed, deciding to stop them.

Tasha and Ayaka raised their hands as if they gave up. Sofia also turned back and opened the door. "Come on in."

"Ugh, as expected, Isabelle is the best. Though she is a bit scary…"

"What did you say?" The aforementioned person suddenly appeared, but this time, she wasn't alone. Tommy and the others followed right behind them.

Evan froze on the spot before turning around his body, finding Isabelle and the others. "How…"

"What?! It's just a coincidence. I found you when you were about to enter the room, so here I am." Isabelle smiled. "And I can know what you are thinking of me…"

"Wait, wait. I can explain." Evan hurriedly replied, trying to calm her down.

"It's fine. I understand." She patted Evan's shoulder as if she had forgiven him.

However, Evan could only feel a chill down to his spine since he knew there would be something big later.

"Why are you here?" Michelle found this a bit wrong before realizing the reason and glancing over the document. It was then she got the exact reason. "You…"

Isabelle nodded. "Yes. The mission is a joint mission again, but I think the captain of this joint group needs to be the one explaining the mission, right?"

Kai let out a long sigh and nodded. "Yes. So, take a seat and relax."

Michelle and the others then returned to their seat. Evan brought some foldable chairs for the Eagle Group, while Tasha made tea for all of them.

"So, what is this mission that requires us to cooperate with the Eagle Group?" Michelle asked and took the documents.

Kai grabbed the first ten papers and handed them to each person, including him. "I will explain the basic information first. Before that, I think you should know why I got such a mission…First of all, I asked for a specific request from my teacher.

"It's to explore a ruin in Peru. The ruin is known as Caral. Of course, I need Isabelle as well for this mission since we were together when we met Rapakha."

"If you need only the captain, why don't you request her only?" Eva asked.

"I have a plan for that, but unfortunately, I need to do something before we can explore the ruin. Considering there is a high chance that this expedition will be a failure, we will have another mission."

"Another mission? May I know what that is?" Isabelle's interest got piqued by this mission. The mission Kai received wouldn't be something so small unless he requested as such. However, Kai wouldn't easily ask for one, so it should be a big mission as well.

Some of them had gone for intense training, so she wanted to see the power of her teammates, and the mission from Kai would be perfect for that.

"I see. So, which mission do you want to explain first?" Isabelle asked.

"I will explain the main mission first, which is the exploration. We will go to Caral in Peru…I will send the details to each of you later. I want to find anything that can lead us to something in the past. I know that archeologists in the past kept searching for something but to no avail, but we have another aspect…Which is our magic and unique ability. We will gather any information there for three days to a week, depending on the situation." Kai explained.

"Not too long, not too short. I guess it's fine. Any monsters?"

"Yes. You must have received many missions in Peru, right? There are many monsters still residing all over Peru. I will explain why when we move to the second mission. Anyway, if we find anything, I will try to split the reward for all of us.

"Of course, I can't do anything if there is nothing. That's why, if some of you want to return first, I won't stop you." Kai raised his hand as if signaling them he wouldn't do anything to them, whatever their decision.

Suddenly, Tommy narrowed his eyes and hit the table lightly. "I don't know your impression about us, but our Eagle Group will stand as one even if it means meeting a tragic death. We won't go anywhere else…We will follow the mission until everyone returns."

Kai widened his eyes for a second before turning to Isabelle. "You are blessed with good teammates."

"Of course. They are my pride and my family." She smiled.

"We will do the same thing!"

"That's right."

Suddenly, Tasha and Ayaka raised the same statement.

"Why are you competing?" Kai shook his head helplessly. "I am wondering what the two of you have experienced back in the training session. To think you two are this close now."

"We are far surpassed best friends now!" Tasha gave a thumbs up and Ayaka acknowledged it.

Kai only stared at them for two seconds before turning his head away, ignoring them. "Anyway, this is the main mission. If we find nothing, you will still be compensated, but not too big. So, I will apologize in advance. I can infuse some money in the reward too."

"Don't." Isabelle stopped him. "We don't really need money to be honest. What we want are experiences. The only reason why I come here is that a mission that comes from you will be a big mission. That's why I am here."

"In that case, I don't need to mind about this aspect anymore. Well, that's the explanation for the main mission. Do you have any questions?" Kai asked.

"Yes. Do you think it is possible to have half of us protect us from any danger while leaving the others to explore the ruin? I mean, we need only you, me, Sofia, Ayaka, and Tasha, right? We probably need Evan as well since there might be toxic substances. He is a moving hospital after all."

"Yes, it's possible. We can talk about the details later." Kai nodded.

"Alright."

"If there are no more questions, I will continue the secondary mission. This mission has a high difficulty because we are going to sweep the Amazon rainforest."

The group widened their eyes, feeling weird. In the past, this rainforest was known as a very dangerous forest that had tribes, toxic plants, and beasts. Ever since the apocalypse, we could ignore the tribes since most of them should have died already. In other words, the beasts would be their main threat since Evan could handle the toxic plants.

"Still, how many magical beasts are inside the Amazon?" Michelle asked.

"There should be at least a million," Kai replied honestly.

"What?!" They dropped their jaw to the ground, never expecting such an answer.

Michelle also found it wrong. "Don't we have a base in the surroundings?"

"Yes, we do. This is what I want to explain to you." Kai sighed. "The strategy for the north and the south are vastly different. In the north, the army tried to sweep the magical beasts while slowly advancing. This will lead to a lower number of beasts that manage to penetrate their defense.

"However, the south has a different strategy. Instead of going slowly and killing every single magical beast in sight, they decided to send a large group to deal with a large area. After clearing that area, they will start sending the resources to build a base from the air.

"They didn't deal with the magical beasts…And this is the exact reason why we only need one more base to complete the formation before every single base sends their troops to all directions to clean up.

"You can now easily see why the South has more progress than the North. It's due to this strategy, and this one has become the face of the army. With this kind of reputation, the masses will glorify the army, making more and more people join the army.

"This is why there are still at least one million monsters inside the Amazon. In fact, I do feel there are at least ten times of that. This certainly makes the difficulty significantly higher, thus our mission is to kill fifty thousand beasts or more within two weeks. There are no rank criteria for this, so everything is about killing.

"And I don't think there is someone who wants to observe this, so it's based on trust. As for the magical beasts' cores, we will let the army handle everything later. The soldiers who help will get ten percent; the army will get thirty percent while the rest will be split among us.

"This is the mission, what do you think?" Kai asked everyone who seemed to haven't processed the information from him.

They contemplated the details for a while before Ayaka asked. "Do we need a base or something? And do we have permission to make a huge explosion? I mean…Even though it's a rain forest and the spring is not as hot as summer, we still can't destroy nature easily."

"If possible, don't use something like that. However, we will meet the rivers, so it's fine there. As for a base…Of course, we need a base of operation. I will handle the location later."

"Are we going to separate? Or keep sticking together?"

"We will spread out but at a certain distance. I will make sure about the positioning as well."

"You have so much stuff, eh?" Isabelle smirked.

"Yes. I need an assistant probably." Kai sighed.

"In that case, Sister Becca is ready. She can help you in this regard. I will give you her contact number later." Ayaka offered a solution. "But I apologize if she can't come to the school."

"It's fine. Calling her is enough." Kai nodded. "Alright. In that case, do any of you have questions?"

They exchanged looks and shook their heads at the same time.

"Alright. We will go next week, so you have this week to learn all the information I will give you later." Kai nodded. "The meeting is over."
