The Magician of Sound

"I have spotted them." Kai opened his eyes. "They are five kilometers on our ten."

"Really?" Rick was startled as he who was in the front, couldn\'t even see anything other than trees. There was indeed a large dirt road, spanning for a few kilometers ahead. Kai\'s direction was pointing at this road, so he quickly shifted their direction. 

At first, it was hard to believe that Kai could sense them, but the moment he saw them after flying for five minutes stunned him. Rick glanced at Kai before observing the fifty bison in their front. Although there were two kilometers left, he could see it clearly from above.

"I can get closer up to one kilometer. After that, I can only drop you guys and fly above you." Rick informed them while observing the bisons\' movements. 

They were pretty calm at the moment while crossing the dirt road toward their direction.

Kai looked to the side and commented, "The dirt road is huge… But there are trees that we can use as a diversion. I want this mission to be focused on Ayaka so that I can grasp the extent of her power. Do you have any objection?"

Although this question targeted Ayaka, he also wanted to see others\' reactions since he always led the group. Fortunately, his worry was unnecessary.

"I am staying in the helicopter and healing the injured, so I don\'t have any objection." Evan was the first one to answer. 

"No matter your decision, I am taking the support role with my bow. In fact, I can stay in this helicopter and attack them from above," Tasha said nonchalantly. 

"Except for the order of retreat, while you are holding the rear, which is basically suicide, I have no qualms," Michelle answered with a smile. 

Ayaka looked down for a few seconds before taking a deep breath. "I will do my best."

There was a trace of confidence in her eyes, but not overconfidence. As long as she was careful, this should be an easy mission.

"Alright. Here is my plan." Kai paused for a few seconds to get their attention. "Ayaka and I will come from the front while Michelle and Tasha will strike from behind on my signal."

"Eh? Are you sure about that?" Michelle seemed to have a little objection while Tasha explained her qualms. "Although they are only C rank magical beasts, there are fifty of them." 

At this time, Ayaka broke her silence, stunning them. "I see. You want to separate them?"

Astonishment appeared on Kai\'s face before he nodded with a serious expression.

After getting trained by Ria Ross, she managed to learn a few things from her as to prevent her from being dead-weight. With the same teacher, Ayaka could understand how Kai thought at this moment. She saw Kai\'s nod and began her explanation.

"I will use my magic bomb to separate them into two groups. Maybe 10-40 or 15-35… Michelle and Tasha will eliminate ten to fifteen bison while we take on the rest."

"In any case, we can use Ayaka\'s Scarlet Explosion and firebirds to chip away their number, so don\'t worry about it," Kai added, assuring the unrest in Michelle\'s and Tasha\'s hearts.

"If you say it that way, then I agree with the plan." Michelle nodded. 

"Sorry, Evan. Although we have you, I want to complete this mission without an injury." Kai looked at Evan, afraid of him feeling being left out.

"Eh? Kai, are you an M? Do you really want to get injured?" Evan looked at him with a weird expression.

"Of course not." Kai wanted to say that he worked hard in the previous mission, so if he didn\'t have any job in this mission, he would feel he wasn\'t needed in this group. 

"Don\'t worry. I am not a petty person. I have the power to heal, but I personally don\'t like to heal other people. It\'s better to complete the mission without an injury." Evan made a little smile to strengthen his point.

"Alright. Time to go." Kai nodded before glancing at Rick, to which he replied with, "You can jump off in three seconds."

Rick said three seconds was to stabilize the helicopter. 

Kai and Michelle opened the door. Ayaka walked toward Kai while Tasha was standing by beside Michelle.

"Go!" 

The instant Kai gave the signal, both of them jumped off the helicopter, falling to the ground at high speed. At this time, a pink magic circle appeared right beneath their feet as Tasha said, "Teleportation."

All of them appeared right on the dirt road, looking at the bison far away. Seeing how close the helicopter was, the bisons noticed it. Luckily, it would seem they had noticed Kai\'s and the others\' presence.

Kai instructed, "Ayaka, place the magic bomb in this place. Tasha and Michelle can use the woods to mask your presence and stay there until the magic bomb explodes."

"Sure." Tasha nodded while patting Michelle\'s shoulder as she created another magic circle. "Teleportation."

Kai watched them disappear before turning back to Ayaka. "Are you alright? Can you handle it this time?"

"I will try." Ayaka nodded with more confidence than usual.

"Still, I am wondering what kind of spear you request from your family…"

"Do you want to try it?" Ayaka took off the white bracelet on her right wrist before handing it to him.

Kai stared dumbfoundedly for a few seconds before taking the bracelet. "Summon."

"Kh!" 

The moment the spear came out of the shell, he almost dropped it down. Veins began appearing on his hand, never expecting this kind of weight. He looked at Ayaka, "What is the weight of this spear? I need almost all of my power just to swing this spear, I guess…"

"It\'s 670 kilograms. I wanted it more, but the technology is not there yet." Ayaka looked at the white spear in Kai\'s hand. It was a simple spear without any decoration, but if one took a blow from this spear, it would be like a blow from a Warhammer. The spear would casually crush their bones.

Kai took a deep breath before he raised the spear and played it around his hand. "As expected. I can\'t use something like this since my movement will be restricted. My limit is around 250 kilograms."

He remembered the two-handed swords that Michelle gave him in the big war. Though he also sacrificed some of his speed because of the weight. In fact, he wanted a vibrating sword before the Sound Levitation since it would increase the sharpness. Then, he could literally cut almost anything.

Of course, he needed to experiment it first. Like if he struck something with his sword, would it cleanly cut the object or would a portion of his vibration be transferred to that object. When he thought about it, the concept itself was a little similar, like a chainsaw trying to cut metal. It wouldn\'t go through at one strike, but would surely leave damage on the metal.

At first, he thought it would cut anything cleanly because he saw many videos about that. The problem was all the videos cut in slow motion. Different from him who needed to fight at high speed. In the end, he shook the thought off and focused back on the spear.

He handed back the spear to Ayaka and said, "It\'s really hard to use."

"Ahaha… For me, this spear feels nice. This is like a heavier Warhammer in spear clothing. Without this spear, I would be the same as a normal girl. It\'s like I can lift them but not throw them." Ayaka smiled. 

"Alright. Tasha and Michelle already took their position. Let\'s get serious, shall we?" Kai paused for a few seconds before saying, "Use your firebirds and target them. I don\'t mind if you only kill one or two bison, but I want you to certainly kill them. In other words, concentrate your attack on one or two.

"After getting their attention, send another wave of firebirds to set up a distance from one of them as we retreat a few meters to get a safe distance with your magic bomb."

"Understood." Ayaka nodded before pointing her hand on the bison.

A red magic circle on the tip of her hand as a few birds made of fire came to life. "Firebirds."

Ten birds flew out of the magic circle, making their way toward the bison. 

Noticing presences coming to them, the bisons turned around, albeit Ayaka\'s firebirds already arrived in front of them.

"Boom Boom Boom!" 

A series of explosions resounded across the region as the ten firebirds split into three groups and struck three bison. Surprisingly, it hit at the same spot, creating a hole in the bisons\' bodies.

"Roar Roar Roar!" The bison didn\'t take this lightly as it roared as loud as possible before noticing Kai and Ayaka around one kilometer away from them. 

"Roar!" Another roar came from the front bison, telling his friends to charge at them. The bisons started moving their feet before making their way toward Ayaka and Kai.

Ayaka sent another wave of firebirds without hesitation. However, the firebirds that were one meter above the ground suddenly dove and struck the ground right in front of the bison. These explosions confused those bison for a few seconds, especially those in the back because they couldn\'t see Kai\'s and Ayaka\'s figures when the dust kicked up. 

This created a gap from each bison and gained Kai\'s approval. "This is good. We will retreat thirty-meters back."

Ayaka nodded and followed him as she sent the last firebird. Because it was hard to time it, the magic bomb was set for an hour, which was basically impossible for the fight to last that long. The purpose of this was so Ayaka\'s firebird could explode right on the magic bomb, breaking the barrier that held the magic bomb. 

Around two-third had passed the magic bomb while Ayaka\'s firebird had arrived. It was at this time the firebird finally exploded, causing a massive explosion.

"Boom!"
