The Magician of Sound

After getting the news about the sudden appearance of an S Rank, every single soldier was moved.

In Nebraska\'s Military Base, many soldiers began entering the aircraft, from helicopters to military aircraft, preparing for a big war.

In another military base, the situation was the same as they flew in succession, heading straight toward California.

Even Kai\'s teacher, Ria Ross, wasn\'t spared in this.

Another general that usually focused on maintaining the orders within each base suddenly appeared inside an auditorium. There were around fifty people inside with a star on their shoulders and four out of them had four stars.

However, there were some who couldn\'t attend this meeting, so they actually made a video call, so they could participate in the briefing as well since those people were on their way toward California.

"I am sure that you all are currently in a mess, but the base is currently facing a catastrophic level threat; an S Rank Magical Beast has appeared in California." The man began his explanation as he pointed at the large screen behind him, showing the mole\'s appearance.

"However, due to the sudden powerful earthquake that hit us a while ago, this mole suddenly appeared out of nowhere. According to the information, we speculated that the mole and the others had been staying underground, far from us to the point that they wouldn\'t mess with us.

"That\'s… The initial state. Unfortunately, everything changed when the earthquake hit. Although we didn\'t have the data right now, we concluded that something must have happened underground in the fault lines, harming these beasts\' habitat.

"With the mole in charge of this group, they went to the surface. There are already more than two hundred thousand beasts in the area and the number keeps increasing every second. But that\'s not the most important thing. What we need to worry about is the mole.

"We have suspected that the mole is an S Rank Magical Beast." His last statement shook the entire room as they widened their eyes in shock. "Before you complain, I will show you the video that General Rain took in the battle."

The screen changed into a video where Kai and the others appeared in it.

"Wait… Isn\'t that…" Many recognized his appearance as they looked at Ria Ross.

"Yes. That\'s my student, Kai Carter." Ria acknowledged it and watched the video.

The video showed Kai attempted to cut that mole in every way possible with the help of his teammates. Rain also helped him while recording the footage by blocking every single attack from the mole with his barrier.

"That mole is dangerous," said Ria with a serious expression. "And it\'s no doubt an S Rank Magical Beast."

Because the people might suspect her showing favoritism, the host asked. "May I know the basis of your statement, General Ria Ross?"

"What my student used in the video was called Super Sonic Sword. It\'s basically a high vibration sword coupled with the power of a Sonic Boom… The phenomenon when you surpass the sound speed.

"With only the Vibration Sword, he managed to injure the S Rank Spider back in Argentina. Yet, an upgraded version couldn\'t even graze that mole. I think I don\'t need to explain more, right?"

The people were shocked. Obviously, everyone had heard about Kai Carter\'s achievement during that battle and the statement about the hardness of the spider\'s shell. Hence, they concluded that Kai Carter also had one of the most powerful offensive magicians in the base.

If such a person couldn\'t even graze it, there was only a glimmer of people who had the potential to do it.

Suddenly, a General raised his hand, asking. "There should be another S Rank Magician called Tasha Carter, right? Why doesn\'t she just teleport the mole to the sea?"

Everyone thought it was a solid question, but the host showed another video. "There is another thing that I want to show you. I\'m sure that you have heard about her making the battlefield have weather called Magical Beast Rain, right? She basically teleported the magical beast to the sky and had it died like that. And when she did it this time, something absurd happened…Take a look at this video."

The video changed. This time, Tasha used her Teleportation Magic and sent the mole to the sky. With that height, the mole should at least suffer an injury, so they thought it would be like that.

However, the mole proved them wrong. A stone pillar emerged from the ground, piercing through the sky.

It even reached the mole\'s height as it grabbed the pillar and descended to the ground at high speed.

Kai cut the pillar down with the help of Michelle, but it was futile. The mole had reached enough distance to the ground as it leaped to the air, creating a powerful shock wave that destroyed the area around it and… Yeah, uninjured.

"They have tried to do this. Looking at the pillar height, we can safely assume that the mole can create a bridge on the sea. At that time, we won\'t be able to predict where the mole will go. And there is also a threat from the sea and a tsunami on top of that. There is already a prediction that the tsunami will hit in another twenty minutes. We don\'t know what will happen to this fight, so all of you are hereby to go toward the battlefield.

"Prioritize the ice and earth magicians to stop the tsunami by creating a barrier. Eliminate all the magical beasts in the surrounding so as to lower the number of casualties. I will be sending your post after this. And one last thing, this is a message from the President."

He showed another video where President Brent stood in front of the camera.

"I won\'t take your time since this is an emergency. I only want to say, we have two priorities. The first being the mole, while the second one is the citizens. Last but not least, I shall elevate one person to be the general of the army, becoming the supreme leader of our entire army.

"Henceforth, for this mission, with my authority as the president, I bestow Ria Ross the authority as the General of the Army. Kai Carter shall serve you as your deputies. The rest shall support them according to your tasks." After announcing Ria Ross\'s supreme position, the president saluted with a grim expression.

Everyone instinctively raised from the seat as they saluted back.

President Brent lowered his hand, followed by Ria Ross and all generals here. She then shouted. "Move out!"

Every single person in the room quickly departed from their seat to march toward the battlefield.

…

Meanwhile, the situation was also not that much better in California.

The city was enveloped by fire and smoke. The sound of screams lingered in four corners. Magical Beasts kept hunting humans while the military tried their best to suppress them.

Their efforts were supposed to be enough, but they miscalculated the power of an S Rank Magician Beast. They could call beasts upon beasts continuously until the nearby area was empty. And this showed how many beasts actually hid underground.

Luckily, there was only one hole they needed to focus on, so this situation was redeemable even with so many casualties.

Kai and the others were still facing the mole without knowing what to do. The mole\'s defense far surpassed that of the S Rank Spider, so even with Michelle\'s Shadow Slash, there wasn\'t even a dent on it.

"Kai!" Isabelle shouted with a serious expression as though she found something. "The mole\'s fur is the one that is strong. I can see the difference in their fur. If you can blow the fur away, I\'m sure you can cut that monster."

Hearing the information, Kai furrowed his eyebrows while trying to find a way to clear that fur.

Rain didn\'t want them to deal with this alone, so he shouted. "I can create a small barrier for you to push the fur. Although the space is not going to be big, I\'m sure it\'s enough for you. However, I need someone to cover me because it will take all my focus."

"Michelle, Ayaka!"

"Roger." The two plus Dark Michelle leaped toward Rain. "We will help you."

"Understood. Let\'s go." Rain nodded.

Kai quickly leaped toward the mole\'s head and slashed his sword, only to find it stopped by the claws.

At the very least, the mole\'s eyes were focused on Kai, so the small group went around the mole.

To prevent it from moving, Sofia created another huge boulder of ice on top of the mole but to no avail. The mole slashed it with its claw before throwing the smaller portion toward her.

Little did the mole know the real attack was not her but Tasha. She had teleported to the sky and created four magic circles in succession.

The thunder began to be heard behind the white cloud. "Lightning God\'s Wrath."

Blue lightning struck forth, hitting the magic circles in succession. Each time it passed through them, it became stronger and stronger until it hit the mole.

The mole summoned many spikes to divert the electricity, but the piercing power of the lightning itself was too great for the spikes to handle. It broke through and hit the mole\'s hand after it tried to move to protect its head.

Unfortunately, the lightning didn\'t manage to pierce the mole\'s hand.

But that was all they needed. Dark Michelle stopped the numb mole\'s body with her four scythes while Rain clapped his hand, summoning a small barrier that pushed out the fur in one space like when a human brushed their hair, showing the white head\'s skin.

Kai also had used his Sound Blast to go around the mole, finding that empty space. Without hesitation, he struck that little area and pierced a bit of the mole\'s skin as red blood splattered around his sword.

Roar.
