The Magician of Sound

Roar.

The bull's voice echoed in the vast savanna, yet, due to Shinkai, all of them didn't dare to move unless they had full loyalty from the magical beasts themselves. It was the same comparison between a shepherd and a normal man.

Unless they gained the loyalty of the sheep, a shepherd wouldn't be able to move them because there was another shepherd before them.

The metallic bull then focused on Kai and Shinkai since he couldn't do anything about it. He charged forward with horns on his front, planning to kill them both.

Shinkai raised his sword to the side and stomped the ground until it cracked. His sword turned red, filled with so much magic power from him.

Right before the bull hit him, Shinkai swung his sword, clashing with the bull's horn.

Unfortunately, as one would expect from a clash at this level, Shinkai was pushed back. He used the giant sword's body to push back until he finally stopped the bull. Still, if one took a closer look at the trail, the bull managed to push Shinkai more than ten meters back.

Not wanting to waste this chance, Kai went around the bull, planning to attack him from the side to behead its head.

But the bull somehow found him and used its magic. Several walls emerged from the ground, trying to stop him.

There were no commotion behind the wall and no powerful magic used as Kai traveled. In fact, it was this sense of peace that had caused the bull to notice something was wrong.

When he raised his vision a bit, he found several walls had been launched to the sky before he found Kai cutting the last wall as if it was butter.

A panicked face started to show in the bull's eyes. It was apparent that the bull had not expected that a human could be this powerful.

When Kai emerged from the wall, his eyes slightly squinted, checking his target again because some fine dust got into his eyes. However, his vision was able to recover very quickly. And he managed to understand the essence of this bull's power.

The bull seemed to have two main powers. The first would be the Earth Magic that he used to create all these walls. And this magic was so refined to the point the dust was able to be replicated. This might be the first time he faced something like this.

The bull's second power was none other than the metal magic cladding his body. Although he suspected that the bull didn't have enough control to coat the ground with metal magic, he didn't dare to grab a conclusion before fighting it a bit more.

When Kai arrived next to the bull, he stomped the ground to create a rotating force and hit the bull's neck with his Super Sonic Sword.

Clang.

The bull seemed to have expected it as it reinforced the metal magic cladding his neck to something stronger to the point a visible red metallic color appeared among the black color.

"(Be careful. It can get even stronger.)" Kai informed Shinkai while jumping to the air.

Acknowledging his warning, Shinkai then observed Kai's movement, wondering what he planned to do.

Kai spun his body with his right foot slightly pulled back as if he was prepared to send another kick.

When he was about to cross the bull, Kai finally had the perfect angle to send a kick toward its lower neck where it was unprotected, planning to give him a shock to make the bull fall.

Unfortunately for him, the bull seemed to be better than he thought as it covered its own head with this red metal as if he'd grasped Kai's plan.

It was at this time Kai showed his real intention when a magic circle appeared right before his foot.

"Sound Blast." Kai smirked and let everything flow perfectly.

The Sound Blast blew his foot away, forcing him to spin in the air and his right foot destination was none other than the bull's stomach.

"!!!" Even Shinkai didn't expect that despite seeing every action. There was no way the bull would be able to predict something like this.

Yet, Kai surprised them once again when he surpassed their expectations. He had a new pair of boots made of the synthesis metal only Ria Ross could create. And that metal was able to withstand the Sonic Boom's pressure.

When Kai's foot was about to hit the bull, a magic circle appeared on the back of his foot as it slightly vibrated to the point it went past the Sound Barrier, creating a Sonic Boom. The shock wave coming from the Sonic Boom helped to increase the speed a few times.

Bam.

A loud sound echoed in the savanna as Shinkai or even Jules and Arnaud dropped their jaws to the ground.

Arnaud could only shake his head helplessly while muttering, "Did I do something wrong? He has grown even stronger."

The scene where Kai thanked him because he learned something stuck in his mind. His job was to acquire the impossible Kai because of his strength and the Union instability. Yet, Kai just surpassed that expectation again and evolved. No one could contain him anymore at this point.

Jules simply facepalmed, wondering whether he still had enough energy to counter that attack. The metal bull that covered its whole body with metal magic had its abdomen slightly leaned to the side because of the force before the entire bull was blown a few meters away.

Kai didn't stop there and chased the bull together with Shinkai. He only signaled Shinkai to let him do something first.

Understanding his signal, Shinkai slowed down and ran right behind Kai to see what kind of action he took. After recognizing it, he planned to strike the bull.

Thus, Kai finally had the room to test the might of his new boot. When he arrived right before the bull, the latter wanted to stand up, albeit Kai's foot was already above his head.

The magic circle appeared again and caused another Sonic Boom to the side, so it didn't harm Kai's body, launching the foot to the ground.

'Did he plan to step on the bull?' Shinkai widened his eyes, but since left and right were not possible, he decided to wait from behind until that shock wave stopped, only to find himself stunned before he could do anything.

After all, the moment Kai's foot reached the bull's head, it continued to push the head to the ground with enough strength to cause a small crater on the ground. The crater was around three meters, yet, it wasn't supposed to happen, considering Kai's strength should be lower than this.

However, only Kai and Ria Ross knew that there was a big difference between the shoes and the swords. His sword caused a Sonic Boom to increase its sharpness because that amount of vibration would be able to cut almost anything. Yet, the shoes had a larger point of contact, so Kai asked Ria Ross to focus on the power instead.

With that large point of contact, the moment it hit something, they would feel as if a giant hammer with great power and speed struck them.

Thus, the result wasn't an exaggeration at all. But the one who was stunned by this result was none other than the one who followed him the longest among them, Sofia Campbell.

Her eyes widened and her jaw dropped. Her mouth stuttered as if she wanted to say something but was unable to do it.

This might be the biggest shock she had ever received. Her face turned pale and her feet went limp. She simply didn't know what to do anymore with this guy.

"Sofia… What is happening to you?" Roselyn tilted her head in confusion. Even if she was shocked by his strength, it shouldn't be that much.

"Have you forgotten what he said already?" Sofia sweatdropped and facepalmed.

"What did he say?" Roselyn was confused before she opened her mouth in shock, realizing what she meant. There was only one thing that flashed in her mind. "S Rank Magical Beast… He is toying an S Rank Magical Beast?"

"It's not supposed to happen, especially since I haven't seen him for only a month." Sofia scratched the back of her head. "What should I do again to catch up with him?"

"You what?!" Roselyn blinked her eyes a few times as she couldn't believe what she heard. Catch up with him? Her only thought was just to think how he didn't leave her behind because of their difference, yet, Sofia had been thinking about catching up. Roselyn finally realized why Sofia could become one of Kai's girls. The difference between their resolves was just that vast.

Unfortunately for her, the shock had yet to end because Sofia had another thing to say. Her eyes were able to recognize the danger level of a certain living being at an imagination level as if she saw a great blaze.

Kai classified this beast as an S Rank Magical Beast and no one would be able to refute it. Yet, this wasn't that much important compared to what she saw. "Back when the mole attacked the US Base, Kai couldn't do anything alone as he needed people's help to kill that monster. But… What am I witnessing at this moment? The bull's blaze is even stronger than the mole and it's already getting toyed by him while the Oni hasn't even attacked it yet."

Roselyn was flabbergasted, wondering if she heard it wrongly. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried to deny it, Sofia's words stuck in her mind as she couldn't help but shout.

"What?!"
