The Magician of Sound

"Rejoice, everyone. Our reinforcements have arrived."

The moment he said that, they turned their heads to look at the empty sky.

"What do you mean our reinforcements have arrived?" The female commander asked, not seeing or hearing anything.

"Technically, they're still five kilometers away from this place." Kai shrugged. "We can wait for a bit and attack them together."

"How do you know?"

"A bluff." The male commander narrowed his eyes, thinking that he just wanted to buy time since it would be too risky. "Since you don't want to go, then I will go. Commander Maya can take charge of the troops."

Looking at the male commander, Maya looked at Kai and Michelle with an apologetic look. "Please don't take offense. He is just frustrated after seeing his soldiers die."

"Just be silent for a bit and you'll be able to hear it." Michelle sighed.

"..." Both commanders exchanged looks, confused by her statement. Because of this argument, they had lost a minute, letting the helicopters sound to ring on their ears.

"!!!" As Kai said, they were really coming. Nodding at each other, both commanders agreed with Kai's previous statement. They immediately came back to their units to prepare for a pincer attack.

"Thanks." Kai glanced at Michelle.

"It's fine. I just did it for myself." Michelle closed her eyes. "I might use my family's influence to beat the crap out of him if he dares to force you…"

"..." He smiled and patted her head. "You are always like that… Still, thank you."

…

After another minute, the people could see three helicopters.

A group of four came out of the first helicopter. Two of them were males and the others were females, appearing to be the elites group from the government. They jumped out of the helicopters, continuing with their flying ability.

The first male was a middle-aged man with long red hair, holding a female on his arm while flying with his Fire Wing. The female then stretched her hand, making a huge blue magic circle.

From the magic circles appeared forms that were closed to ice cubes. The cubes were small, close to the ice cubes that people used for drinks.

At the same time, the other pair was also combining their attack with this pair. They made two green magic circles at the same time, appearing to be wind magicians.

Using the same magic, they made two torrential gusts that fused and created a stronger tornado. At this time, the ice was enveloped by the wind, causing the temperature of the tornado to decrease.

However, it was not their real intention. Inside that tornado were hard ice cubes that were capable of penetrating even the hard shells of those magical beasts and that was precisely what they wanted to use as their weapons. The group wanted to utilize it to its full potential by using this tornado.

The tornado swept away the magical beasts around the right army, helping them in that hopeless situation.

Some of them were blown away and managed to survive, but most of them died, penetrated by the ice cube.

The moment they landed on the ground, they started rampaging around to kill as many as possible.

"With this, it should be enough for us to pincer from here," said Kai while observing the situation.

Both commanders didn't have any objections as they went back to their troops.

"All troops, charge!"

"Ooh!"

Kai and Michelle also marched together with the soldiers. In front of them was a two-meter crab. They were ready to kill it, but suddenly, a bullet penetrated its body and killed the crab. Kai and Michelle instinctively turned their head to see who interrupted them.

Kai knew that it was a sniper, but Michelle suddenly sighed the moment she took a glimpse of that person.

…

On the second helicopter, a woman with long pink hair was lying down, aiming her sniper at two people that piqued her interest. "Fufu… My family informed me of something interesting two days ago. To think Michelle Graham would make a group for someone… Why don't you target some more, so I can kill them before you can even touch them? Fufu… show me your power, the first-ever Zodiac, Leo."

She wanted to see what kind of man managed to move the woman called Michelle Graham.

…

"You know her? Who is she?" Kai asked. "She seems to want to kill-steal me."

"That is Sagittarius, Isabelle Fisher." Michelle gritted her teeth. "To think she's our reinforcement. I'm starting to regret joining this emergency mission. In fact, how could the student council president not know about this?"

Little did she know, she was a reinforcement that was tasked to protect the third helicopter.

The helicopter only had a person, the most important reinforcement in this place, Pisces, Evan Young. They wanted him to heal the soldiers that were injured in this battle, reducing their casualties as much as possible.

"..." Kai was speechless. He just wanted to avoid trouble, but why is it that all sorts of troubles kept coming to his life? "Let's just ignore her and finish this battle first."

"All right."

Kai shifted his gaze and carefully sized up the Sagittarius. He thought, 'If she wants to kill, then I'll let her kill."

He started moving toward a magical beast that was killed by the sniper again. He smirked and repeated the process over and over again, using her to kill the enemy.

Michelle chuckled upon seeing that. "This is truly hilarious. Without swinging his blade, he's killed more than a hundred magical beasts."

On the other hand, Isabelle was raging on the helicopter. "Does he have no pride? How dare he use me like this!"

She aimed the sniper right in front of Kai.

It landed right in the ground right in front of him, telling him she was angry. Kai paid no heed to this threat as he continued to move around.

With his extraordinary hearing, he could know when she would shoot. Taking advantage of this, Kai had perfect timing to annoy her while killing the magical beasts.

He kept doing this until they finally got rid of the magical beasts.

All the soldiers and commanders were happy with the result, throwing a party to celebrate this victory.

Evan Young also started healing the people injured in this battle.

Kai was observing him the entire time to see what kind of power he had, recalling that he was one of the Zodiacs. To his surprise, Evan managed to bring someone who almost died to full health.

His ability blew his mind, causing him to wonder whether they should invite him or not. After all, he learned from Michelle that he wasn't a part of any group.

Although he wanted another vanguard to help him in the front, he could do just fine as long as he had a healer. Deciding to observe his character first, he came to the party with that intention.

At the party, the people were talking about the rain of magical beasts and the strategist, who were obviously Tasha and Kai. If one needed to choose a person that contributed the most, they would undoubtedly choose him.

Kai and the others joined the celebration as a formality, planning to go back the next day. It was at this time that the pink-haired woman walked toward him.

Seeing this, Michelle facepalmed. Here comes the trouble.

"You… I challenge you to a duel." Isabelle pointed her finger at Kai.

"There you go again. Searching for another person just to prove you're strong," Evan Young interjected.

"What did you say?!" Looking at him with disgusted eyes, she snarled.

"Nothing." Evan simply shrugged his shoulder. Even so, in a very low tone, he added, "Your efforts will be rewarded someday even without doing that…"

"??" Kai glanced at Evan, thinking of something interesting. He couldn't understand what he said, but he knew this thing was not as simple as that. He would love to find out about this Evan from Michelle later.

"To think the group ranked 8th in the academy wants to bully our new group… Your shamelessness is truly surprising." Michelle walked toward them and said.

"Michelle…" Isabelle narrowed her eyes. "You can't have a personal duel between magicians, but we can do a group battle. I want to see how powerful a group built by an S-rank magician and Leo is."

"Hmph, It's still unacceptable for a group in such a high ranking to challenge a new group." Michelle snorted.

Isabelle smirked, remembering the report about Michelle's past. Michelle was the current number one in school, so she always wanted to challenge her. Unfortunately, she didn't have a group, making her unable to be challenged. She kept searching for information that could rile her up to make an unofficial duel and found an interesting piece of information.

She often visited United Japan, surprisingly, for a man the same age as her. The moment she found out that he was the first Zodiac ever created, and this made her want to challenge him too.

Looking at their relationship, Isabelle could see a gap which she could take advantage of.

She slowly walked toward Kai and acted like she stumbled. This should be enough to make Michelle angry.

"Ah!" The moment she stumbled, she threw herself toward Kai.

"!!!" Michelle opened her eyes wide, not because she was surprised by her action, but because Kai moved sideways, letting her fall on her face instead of his embrace.

Bam!

"..." The party turned silent before Michelle's laugh rang in everyone's ears. "Haha… What do you think you're doing? Seriously, you need to find a good man like him. He knows you're just faking that stumble and dodged you… Haha, Evan Young, we need you to heal her face… maybe her heart too. Haha."

On the other hand, Isabelle was raging as she stood up and walked away, leaving the place with a nosebleed. "Just you wait."

Evan only sighed helplessly and walked away too.

The next day, they went back to the place where they placed their belongings and retrieved them as they made their way back home.
