The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 184 - News That Startled The Entire Base

The next few days passed with a very big fuss.

Kai found out that the Government released his information to the media, letting many people hear it.

It was precisely three days later when Kai just got back from school. He found his mother watching the television, specifically the news.

He instantly understood the content as soon as he saw the title.

The New Hero.

It gradually changed when the presenter finally started explaining the news. Besides her sat a familiar middle-aged man with his army uniform.

"We have found a magical beast that has undergone an evolution in the last mission from the army, which is the Subjugation of Underground Nest, taking place in Quebec, Canada. It's found that this magical beast is originally a seahorse that has unlocked his intelligence and becomes an S rank magical beast.

"However, this beast seems to have the ability to command magical beasts from his surroundings. With intelligence as high as a human, it can command the magical beasts and challenge the army with tactics, making it more dangerous. Luckily, an eighteen years old boy killed it before it encroached upon our land. With me here is the previous Vice-General of the battle, Sir Sherwin Shara."

The presenter smiled widely while Sherwin nodded to her and the camera. She then continued. "Sir Sherwin, if I may ask, what do you think about this beast itself? And How dangerous is it?"

"I have many thoughts about this creature, but there are two most important things. First, I can confidently state that this beast is more dangerous than an S rank magical beast. Normal S rank magical beasts or those that have unlocked their intelligence usually stay in their own territory unless something disturbed their lands.

"However, this magical beast can come to our land out of its judgment. And this seahorse has the potential to bring many magical beasts to attack our land."

"Then, why didn't the seahorse do that?" She asked.

"The Underground Nest in Quebec is a major point, situated between our front line and US Base. I am sure that the seahorse wanted to destroy our subjugation party before attacking either our base or front line at the moment we wouldn't expect. That's why I believe this is more dangerous than a normal S rank magical beast."

"I see. It's very dangerous to the point I won't dare to imagine." She nodded solemnly. "Then, how about the second reason?"

"It's simple. Their battle prowess was close to S rank magical beast despite being on the land. You could very well see why it was very dangerous to let such a beast roaming around."

"Indeed. It can cause much destruction everywhere, and we certainly don't want to see that." She nodded before pulling out a name. "Then, we must thank the person who killed this magical beast. The military has yet to reveal his name, but they will release the name soon. What do you think about this person, Sir Sherwin."

"I was fortunate to have a cooperation with him in the previous mission. His name will be revealed in a military ceremony where we will make an exception for him and reward him with military rank. We have never done this to a student, but he is worth it. Even the president has big hope for this boy to grow.

"His first achievement came from the battle in Prince Rupert. He led his group to aid a military base and managed to destroy more than five thousand magical beasts by commanding only a few hundred soldiers. That is a very incredible feat if you are in the military.

"His second achievement was when he led four thousand people to win against twenty thousand magical beasts in Cuba. He became the strategist of that place and turned the situation around with a very small loss compared to a normal one. There were almost ten intelligence A rank magical beasts that were worth hundreds of beasts due to their ability. We usually called such beasts Commander Class, so you could see how big his achievement was.

"Finally, his last achievement came from the last subjugation mission. He led six thousand soldiers to fight fifty thousand magical beasts. However, we were ambushed by this new creature from all directions. Their number was thirty thousand at that time. Luckily, when hope vanished as we might be annihilated. He led the soldiers and turned around the situation as well as killed this new creature, showing his martial prowess. I… No, we truly thank him for his efforts and will reward him with Second Lieutenant Rank in a few days. We hope to see more from him in the future."

*Thud—!* The present fell into silence. She tried to come up with a question, but could only look at him in awe. These three achievements coming from an eighteen years boy alone would leave one speechless. Yet, it wasn't over because Sherwin dropped another bomb.

"If you know about another hero from this base, Ria Ross, you will get another shock. She has become his teacher for over a decade." Sherwin smiled as if he didn't have any guilt revealing all of this.

*Prank!*

The sound of glass breaking filled the room as Kai and Tasha were startled, looking at their mother, who unconsciously dropped a glass.

"Ah!" She finally woke up and started cleaning up. She looked at Tasha. "Who is that man? I think he suits my little S rank magician. How about going after him instead of your brother?"

She never objected or agreed to her bro-con attitude this whole time. Of course, she wished for happiness, but if she could achieve such happiness without being one, she would hope for it.

"Humph. We are not related by blood, so it's safe. Besides…" Tasha walked behind Kai and circled her hands on his neck as she said. "Since Mother has asked me to go after you, what do you think, Kai?"

"Huh?" Their mother furrowed her eyebrows before realizing the meaning behind her words. "You… Don't tell me…"

"Of course. My Kai is the greatest. He just never reveals it to you to not make you worry. If that accident in United Asia didn't happen, Kai might not reveal it for a long time." Tasha smirked.

Their mother facepalmed as she let out a long sigh. "These two kids, how many secrets have you kept secret to your parents this whole time?"

Tasha only stuck out her tongue playfully.

Kai shook his head as he thought, 'This must be their preparation if the Government wants to reveal my identity to raise the base prestige and soldiers' morale. They might not open all of my profile to the public, but surely wanted to reveal my big achievement to increase it even further… By the time I reach the General level, it will be very effective.

In Young Family, Evan also received the same news. He could only shake his head, knowing this would happen. Even his father came out of his study room after getting the news from his butler and came to Evan.

"Evan! You just came back from the mission, right?"

Evan looked at this blue-haired middle-aged man and sighed. "You are coming at me right now, even though you haven't seen your son for a while?"

"I was busy for a while. If you don't believe me, we can go on a trip after this week to have time with family." He put on his strict but sincere emotion. Although this guy never showed it on his face, he showed his care with his action.

"No. I'm good. If I tell you I know this person, what will you do, Father?"

"You know him?" He narrowed his eyes. "Nothing. I will leave it to your jurisdiction. I said it long ago. As long as you give me many heirs for the family, I won't force you to do anything."

"You already know that it will be too dangerous for me to have an heir, right?" Evan looked at him for a moment before saying. "He is my captain."

He ignored the first question and was shocked by Evan's statement. "Your Captain? The leader of Lion Group, Kai Carter?"

"Yes. He is an awesome guy that I respect from the bottom of my heart."

"Since he is already your captain, then I don't need to worry anymore." He nodded before sighing, looking at his only son. He thought, 'What I want is not an heir… I can ask your sisters for that. What I want is you have a woman in your life rather than seeing you forever alone and put that lonely face all the time. Sigh.'

"Anyway, our neighbor will come sooner or later."

"That Roy Fisher!" He clicked his tongue in annoyance.

Suddenly, a bell resounded across the neighborhood, followed by a shout from a middle-aged man.

*Ding Dong!*

"Haha… James Young, you can't hog all of the attention like this! I need to talk business with you!"

Evan's father, James, closed his eyes in anger as that person stormed inside his house and found him and Evan. Beside him was a pink-haired woman who was looking away, embarrassed.

"Roy Fisher. I haven't given you permission to enter my mansion!"

"No need to say that. We have been neighbors… or even in-law for generations. Even your first daughter is with my second son right now."

Evan already predicted this would happen, considering how close their two families were and the problem between Lion Group and Eagle Group. Although Isabelle didn't know it was him, it wasn't hard to deduce, it was Kai due to many encounters.

Roy narrowed his eyes. "My opinion still stands."

"Haha… Look! We are best friends from childhood. So, cut me some slack! I have a discussion with you."

"Get out!"
