The Magician of Sound

"I am the Prime Minister. I heard you want to talk to me." The old man faced Kai with a serious expression, not underestimating him in the slightest.

"Yes. I want the government to seize this opportunity to stop the war. This should give back a bit of trust to the people." Kai quickly cut to the chase.

The one behind the Prime Minister opened his mouth but stopped before saying anything. Although he was displeased to see Kai look down on the Prime Minister, he knew it wasn't the time to be reckless.

The Prime Minister closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

"There are a few things that need to be done to gain back people's trust in the government. Before that, I would like to ask you your reason for helping the government." The Prime Minister asked politely. "I may not be that useful in running the government, but I have promised to make sure my people do not suffer. If your aim is to make them suffer, I won't agree even if you cut me down here and now."

Kai shook his head. "I have no intention in harming the citizens. I am sure you have watched my fight in the EU Base. After knowing the plan, I quickly baited the creature to that place. Of course, all people have been evacuated. I hope that you can understand that my heart is with the citizens. I also don't wish for them to suffer."

What Kai hoped to achieve by telling him that fact was for the Prime Minister to understand that Kai never harmed the innocent citizens.

Even the Prime Minister fell silent after hearing his answer. It took him a minute to continue the discussion. "I understand. Still, the government has limited power over the South Family. Even if we want to stop this war, it's impossible unless someone stops them."

The Prime Minister seemed to wish to borrow Kai's power to stop the South Family. By using the citizens as the hostage, he indeed managed to play like how those in politics would act in this situation.

Kai nodded. "I can stop the South Family for you. But you are also required to oversee the entire situation, ensuring all the people have been freed from the Katsuragi Family's control. Also, you need to make sure that all the Katsuragi Family members return to Hokkaido."

He thought for a moment. "Yes. We can do that. With the information I've been given, I can see your aim. There won't be much resistance from the Katsuragi Family, so if you can handle the other side, we can control the situation."

"That's good." Kai nodded.

"Still, there is one thing that has been making me unable to sleep at night." The Prime Minister smiled and asked. "I wonder if a person such as you know why the Yajima Family disappeared in a single night."

This old man indeed tried to get everything from him.

Kai smiled and said with a bit of a threat. "Let's cut to the chase. I will answer your question with another question. How much do you think you know about me?"

"!!!" The old man was stunned for a second before closing his eyes to regain his composure. However, he understood Kai's meaning.

Kai wanted to show off his power, including the fact that he could make two new S Rank Magicians if he wanted. No, Sofia and Roselyn were the new SS Rank Magicians. It was even more tremendous for them.

Even Ikeda Kenzo didn't have the confidence to become an SS Rank Magician, signifying the fear of this achievement.

"There is always something that can't be asked, right?" Kai squinted his eyes, pressuring the Prime Minister.

"Are you thinking of challenging the whole—"The old man that wanted to berate him previously couldn't contain himself anymore and shouted before stopping abruptly. He just couldn't contain his anger and forgot that Kai had enough strength to challenge the entire base for a moment.

"I apologize for his rude behavior." The Prime Minister apologized and bowed his head.

"It's okay. In any case, I want to tell you that the Yajima Family will re-emerge tomorrow or the day after." Kai shook his head. "If there is any harm coming to them, it means I am forced to move and revisit this base."

"…" The Prime Minister pinched the bridge of his nose. "If I may know, what is your relationship with the Yajima Family's eldest daughter, Yajima Haruko?"

Kai smiled and said with conviction. "I am her boyfriend."

"Hahaha, the Yajima Family is so lucky to have you as their son-in-law." The Prime Minister tried to act calm and laughed.

"That's all I want to say." Kai shook his head. "This problem will be solved within two days. It's up to you whether you can seize this chance or not."

"I perfectly understand."

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Kai's face as he raised his tone. "Now that I have done you a favor, don't you think you should give me something?"

"What?!" The Prime Minister widened his eyes, never expecting Kai to be asking something.

"It's not that big of a deal." Kai shrugged.

"May I know what it is?"

Kai smiled mysteriously.

…

One hour after the first discussion, Kai had arrived at the South Family's castle.

Guided by the maids, Kai walked across this stupidly humongous castle, wondering whether they would arrive within a few minutes.

Luckily, the meeting room seemed to be not that far from the entrance as they arrived after walking for two minutes.

The maids opened the giant gate that separated them from the people inside the meeting room, showing a total of twenty people sitting in the room.

When they sensed Kai's presence, they quickly stopped whatever they were doing and looked at him, not wanting to miss any single detail.

Still, the most noticeable ones were the two people who stood side by side on the opposite side.

Seeing Kai entering the meeting room, the middle-aged man rose and greeted them politely. "Nice to meet you. I am the South Family's family head. My name is a bit hard to pronounce for you, so you can call me David."

Because Kai had recognized his father, David continued his introduction. "Next to me is the previous head of this family. You can call him Erik."

After that, he took another look at the two who accompanied Kai for this discussion. "It's an honor to meet the three of you. The SSS Rank Magician Kai Carter, The SS Rank Magician Sofia Campbell, and the only daughter of the Graham Family, Michelle Graham. I have heard of your intention in coming here.

"Since you wish to talk to us, please sit down. We can discuss whether the South Family will stop their advance or not here and now." David stated with a serious expression.

"…" Kai didn't reply to him. Instead, he looked at the old man who suddenly rose from his seat and walked to him.

As if understanding his intention, Kai also walked toward without a change of expression.

"I am curious about your strength." The old man smiled and stopped before him.

Their eyes intertwined, but neither of them backed down.

The old man raised his hand before a female's hand grabbed his arm.

The old man glanced to the side, finding Sofia. Her expression was cold

The temperature dropped as Sofia said with killing intent. "You shouldn't make a move. We aren't here to fight, but if a fight is what you want, we can give you and wipe out this family."
