The Magician of Sound

"Kai!" Michelle shouted as a new group of five appeared on the battlefield.

Kai turned around and found five tigers leaping toward them in unison. He simply used his Sound Blast to reach their position before killing them in one stroke.

"Michelle, ten left." Kai pointed at the remaining ten before letting out a breath of relief. "We are done here. Let's go back and have lunch."

Michelle and Dark Michelle cut those beasts simultaneously before the Dark Michelle disappeared. Though, she didn't forget to say "I love you" to Kai.

Tasha teleported them to their base immediately since they needed to prepare food. Their base was next to the hill which covered one side, so they didn't need to worry about it during the night and focused their attention on the other side. They set up a tent under three trees that were cool enough for them to relax during the day.

"Who is in charge again?" Kai asked.

"Me." Tasha raised her hand. "Anyway, we have chicken meat this time and I think Ayaka has found some vegetables in the mountain. How about the rest of our supplies?"

"We used a bit more salt than we expected."

"It doesn't matter then." Tasha shrugged. What they brought to this place were only spices since Tasha and Michelle could cook. Ayaka, Isabelle, and Kai could do it as well, but their cooking couldn't be compared to those two. They really put it all into this.

"Alright."

Kai prepared the ingredients while Tasha cooked most of them.

It only took her half an hour to finish cooking an extravagant meal, which everybody liked.

After eating, Kai turned to Michelle. "That's right. How is our progress?"

"We have killed more than one hundred thousand monsters in this area. As for the area…I think we have cleared twice of your hearing range. I'm not sure about this either."

"That's good enough." Kai nodded with a serious expression as if this was normal.

Meanwhile, Haruko still had the same reaction despite being with them for a whole week. If this were the past her, she would have jumped out of fear. The number was just impossible. But if one took another look at it, they had two S Rank Magicians and one genius general.

If they had an army, they would have progressed more than they could imagine. Unfortunately, this was United Asia's territory, not the US Base's.

She simply sighed and kept listening to their conversation.

"When is the reinforcement going to arrive?" Kai asked another question.

"I have sent the signal to Grandfather, so we can safely assume that they have gotten it. According to the information, United Asia has prepared their materials to make a small base and waited for our signal. I think they will arrive soon."

"That's good then. At least, they trust us enough to send the army since the US Base can't really prove that we can complete this mission. They will still doubt our strength because we only have seven people here."

"Yeah. Anyway, I have another report for—" Before she finished, Kai put his hand on his mouth as if he heard something.

"Finally, they have come." Kai opened his eyes and smiled. He then turned to Tasha. "Show them our location."

"Sure." Tasha nodded and rose from her seat. She raised her vision and pulled her bow upward before releasing an arrow that created an explosion in the sky.

Boom.

Kai nodded with a smile as he was sure that those people had received their message before continuing the report.

Not long after that, Kai rose from his seat and turned around, finding many people starting to come out of the wood.

Kai saw a snake on this guy's shoulder and recognized this symbol. He recalled the teacher that accompanied him to the US Base, Shirotsuka Sanae.

Unlike the US Base that adopted the US Army System, United Asia emphasized eight groups instead. Snake Group was one of the most powerful groups in the base, so he should be able to expect something from them.

Surprisingly, Kai found another group in the mix. It was a turtle. From the way that these two walked, they seemed to have the same power.

The one from the snake group was a male with long light green hair tied into a ponytail. His expression was grim while staring at him as he walked. The other one was a female with short black hair. Unlike him, her expression was flat as if she wasn't interested in whatever they were doing.

Kai also began to walk and greeted them. "Nice to meet you."

"We have gotten the information from the government." The male nodded. "I am Yaku… Just Yaku, a commander from the Snake Army. I have been tasked to supervise the entire construction."

Kai shook his hand. "I'm Kai Carter. I'm sure that you have heard of me being the helper of this operation. My mission is to stay for one more week here, so I will help the protection team."

Hearing the word "protection", the woman stretched her hand as she greeted him. "I'm Okuda Yoriko from the Turtle Group. My mission is to protect the construction."

"Ah, I see. I will be working with you then." Kai nodded. "For now, I should give you information about our progress."

"Indeed. We would like to hear that."

"Before that, how are the materials?"

"We have enough to construct a simple base within two months. We can upgrade that base later after sending more people here. After all, we can't really bring everyone here because we don't know about your real strength…Only your reputation that has been spread by the US Base." Yaku explained his and everyone's doubts.

Kai nodded in understanding. He had expected this, so he continued. "Our progress isn't that good. During the past week, we can only kill around a hundred thousand magical beasts around this area.

"After calculating the landscape and other things, I have made a slight adjustment to the position and chosen this place as my base. If you want, you can inspect the land a bit more and ask your superior about it. Or you can even go back to the original location…I don't mind."

"Wha—" Instead of amazed by Kai's vision, both Yaku and Yoriko were focused on his kill count. One hundred thousand beasts in just a week? And they only had eight people to boot? Yaku and Yoriko were speechless, unable to comprehend how they did it.

Although there was a chance of him lying, both knew that a portion of it was the truth. After all, for the past ten kilometers from this area, they didn't encounter any single magical beasts which meant that Kai's group had slaughtered them.

"Did you kill them all?" Yaku couldn't help but ask for confirmation.

"Yeah. I killed them." Kai nodded with a poker face. "Anyway, I would like to focus on the construction instead of this. Can we?"

"Ahem." Yaku coughed to clear his throat and calm his heart down before apologizing. "I'm sorry for my remark. Certainly, we can discuss the construction plan. Although I need to inspect the landscape once again, I would like to apologize if, in the end, this place can't be used. After all, we have a different terrain, which results in a different design for the military base."

"Yes, I know. I'm just suggesting it. You can even create a mini base here while using the original location as your main base." Kai nodded.

"Thank you." He smiled before opening the blueprint as well as the map. "This is…"

Yaku began explaining the entire plan for the construction before inspecting their current position. Unfortunately, Kai's judgment might be true, but the government didn't take his suggestion because the current blueprint was unusable and they needed another two weeks to finish it.

By that time, the magical beasts might have migrated to the area that Kai cleared and began to swarm them.

Yaku kept apologizing to him because of this order even though the latter didn't mind it at all.

While the two guys discussed their plan, Michelle decided to talk with Yoriko. Of course, Tasha became the translator here.

The device might be able to recognize the voice and became an auto-translator, but it was easier to hear it from Tasha.

They talked about the defense area and the group's current progress, showing that they had opened a ten-kilometer radius of open space without a single magical beast in it.

Michelle didn't forget to mention the fact that the area would be soon filled with beasts again, but Yoriko had created a suitable plan to sustain this project until they finished the construction.

According to her, the base spared them one thousand workers and thirty thousand soldiers. She planned to increase that number a bit more to make it even safer.

Michelle didn't reject that idea since it meant that Kai could relax a little bit. After that, Michelle proposed several plans which originated from Kai and the others.

Ultimately, it took them three hours just to finish their discussion. Kai also ended the talk not long after.

Luckily, Kai asked Yaku to unload the material first while they talked, so they could immediately start after the agreement.

It was closed by the handshake of two sides as Kai left everything in Yaku's hand before working with Yoriko. And once again, Yoriko was speechless when Kai took over as the strategist, showing his two years of experiences that were worth more than a decade due to how hard each battle was.

They then started guarding the mission for another week before leaving the battlefield with Teleportation Magic while camouflaging it as new transportation from the US Base.
