The Magician of Sound

"Sh*t!"

That was the last word Sofia uttered before she flew to the sky due to Kai's Sound Blast.

Kai didn't forget to send another message out loud. "If you give up now, I will ask Tasha to teleport you back."

Of course, he didn't forget to use a couple more magic circles to send her to the highest limit where the low pressure didn't torture her.

'This guy!' Sofia really wanted to curse him but stopped as she tried to search for another way to help her.

Kai thought there should be a single move that Sofia could use to escape from this situation. He had seen this technique when Sofia came to the military base from the hotel in Miami. She and Julia rode a thin ice trail to move in the air. Her movement was precise and fluid, so Kai thought she could use it by making trails in the sky.

Sofia also thought of this, but the technique had one big flaw. As much as it could resist the physic law, it was still unable to defy gravity.

The moment she created the ice trail, it would simply fall along with her. Even when the trail reached the ground, it would crumble as it couldn't resist the momentum. Sofia was in a bind this time and even thought about giving up.

'This brother and sister duo… Why do they like people falling from the sky? One is teleporting them while the other one is launching them. They are evil.' Sofia gritted her teeth before she thought something crazy.

She wondered whether this was possible or not but decided to try it.

"Ice Trail. Freeze!" A magic circle appeared in front of Sofia's eyes that she pointed at the ground, summoning another magic circle on the pointed area.

Kai looked at this and signaled Tasha to move if she failed. It wasn't good to have her die in this place, especially on the first day. Tasha nodded as she activated her own magic circle, ready for the rescue.

Suddenly, an almost vertical slide appeared. This slide made of ice was designed to receive her falling momentum before turning it toa horizontal movement.

Kai could see her thinking upon watching this almost 'L' design with a bigger curve, but it was still ridiculous. Although he didn't know whether this could save her or not, he had decided to stop it and asked Tasha to rescue her.

Tasha nodded and activated her magic circle, teleporting her next to Sofia.

"Oi. I am still trying to—" Before she could finish, Tasha already grabbed her hand and teleported them back to the ground, killing the falling momentum completely.

Even so, Sofia was still facing downward, so she fell to the ground with her face first.

"What are you doing?!" Obviously, she was angry. Not only Tasha stopped her from doing an imaginative thing, but she also dropped her like that. At the same time, she immediately changed her expression to a calm and serious one. Her personality even turned into a polite one as she thanked her. "I apologize for my rudeness before and thank you for saving me."

The reason was obviously Tasha. She was the only one she shouldn't oppose in this base as she was soon to be sister-in-law, or so she thought.

"The battle has been decided." Tasha didn't reply to her and ended the match.

"Fufu… Tasha has mellowed a bit." Michelle grinned as she walked toward her. "Now that I think about this, you gradually turn like this after entering this base… I still remember in the past you wanted to kill all the girls that stuck to him."

"And who has influenced me to be like this?" Tasha rolled her eyes.

"It was not me." Michelle shrugged. "I only gave you my whole idea. I think the turning point is when you have quit being a virgin…"

Michelle thought it was a good time to tease her, but she realized that a portion of her darkness seemed to have still remained. Tasha's cold gaze, the leaking killing intent, and her clenching fists made her stop.

"Just shut up." Tasha rolled her eyes and created a magic circle to teleport Michelle up to the sky, letting her experience the same thing as Sofia.

"Oi! How can you team up with her?" Michelle shouted out loud before summoning her shadow. She had been experiencing many things with her shadow lately, and she realized she could freely manipulate her shadow. And coupled with the concept of her Shadow Swords, Michelle turned her shadow into a parachute and flew down gently.

"That's how you do it. If you can't even do something like that, it's better to leave this group." Tasha ignored her again and snorted at Sofia. She was planning to be cold to everyone, so this girl feared her and returned to the EU Base.

Unfortunately, the first time she did this seemed to have no effect on Sofia. After all, she only thought this when she knew Sofia was coming to the base.

Kai let out a long sigh, wondering what he should do with this situation. On one hand, he wanted to solve this matter since he would choose whatever he felt in the future. On the other hand, he was more supportive of his girls rather than Sofia. This created a dilemma in his heart, and he ended up drawing a line with her for the time being.

"Anyway, I think the match has been decided. You have some powerful ability, but what I find interesting is your control. I believe you can become the support with Ayaka as our main attack as she still possesses higher firepower than you. Michelle and I will be in front while Tasha will shoot on the monsters near us.

"With this, our group should be able to handle fifty to one hundred magical beasts alone. Of course, we can even do more since you have the power to change the terrain. However, I do believe that you should try to get along with everyone first and get accustomed to our fighting style.

"If you can't do that, I won't bring you on future missions. After all, they are more important to me." Kai explained the basic combat strategy while giving an important warning to Sofia. After that, he didn't forget to diss her. "Well, I need to say that the last decision of yours was foolish. I can even shatter that ice slide and kill you at the right moment. You are too confident with your power, and I could say you are the weakest one in our group right now."

"!!!" All the girls widened their eyes. They were shocked that Kai would bash her, but the girls actually liked it. Of course, how could they not? Sofia was still a stranger who was trying to steal their men, so this type of reaction was normal.

"I am sorry." On the other hand, Sofia could only bow her head and listen to Kai's complaints. The girls would be happy to see this anyway, so she accepted all the complaints.

…

Meanwhile, a middle-aged man was watching this fight from the start with a beautiful woman inside the house.

"Dear… What do you think about this Sofia?"

"A thieving cat," The man replied instantaneously.

"Well, I do agree at some points… But don't you think she can be converted to be our citizen as well?"

"Although it's hard, it's indeed feasible. I heard that there are two possible subjects that will soon become Zodiacs in the research center. And unlike her, they would likely have a power that is far stronger than her since the blood is relatively power related.

"You might already know about her mimicry ability, but in this world where our main enemies are Magical Beasts, that ability won't be used that much. The only problem is her powerful instinct… No, I should say her sixth sense.

"This ability can completely overthrow her Zodiac Ability. That's why it will be hard to convert her. As much as her ability persists, I don't really have that many complaints if she wants to be Kai's woman. But the fact that she is trying to convince him to join EU Base makes me hate her. Even Father is trying to make her uncomfortable so she can return prematurely."

"True enough." She sighed before walking away. "Anyway, I will check little Anthony."

"Sure. I will join you after this." Michael nodded, looking at Daisy's back with a gentle expression. 'With Anthony and Kai, Graham Family will have another protector for another few generations. However, if the EU Base snatches Kai, I can't predict what will happen to Michelle…'

This problem had troubled him for a few months, even before Sofia came. He knew that Kai would be in the center of attention, and the other bases would surely entice him. United Asia wouldn't be a problem because they had bad blood with Kai.

After all, the Government there had disappointed Kai to the point he almost died. Meanwhile, a single family wouldn't be able to contain Kai, including the two families that are currently in a war.

That was why the only problem would be the EU Base. He had thought of several solutions to keep Kai in the base, but if the latter wanted to go there himself, he had no way to stop him unless he wanted to make a family.

'As expected, it seems I have only a single solution. This one has the highest possibility to retain him except being a general.' Michael sighed inwardly. He knew what kind of thing he could speak and which topic he shouldn't say in Kai's presence since he would surely listen to it. That was why all of these were his thoughts with no way for Kai to know it.

Michael watched the match until the conclusion before he turned around with a serious expression. 'I will inform my father to prepare it secretly in South Carolina.'
