The Magician of Sound - Chapter 569

“…” Neptune seriously had no idea when and where Kai met these two beasts. They all started popping out of nowhere. “How?! How?!”

He gritted his teeth, looking at the incoming soldiers from all sides.

His ears already picked up more than a hundred thousand soldiers that would soon gather in this place.

Looking at this, Arba couldn’t help but smile, remembering her conversation with Kai right after he finished assimilating with the Crown Jewel.

At that time, Kai smiled and pointed his finger to the sky, saying, “The world.”

She was shocked as she didn’t understand what Kai meant at first.

Kai tilted his head excitedly as he explained his words. “I am planning to travel around the world, fighting and adjusting my body to different kinds of environments. This way, I will be forced to use my power effectively and learn it.”

“I can understand that. I will accompany you.” Arba nodded in agreement, understanding what he wanted. He must be inspired by their training where Kai ran between continents, swam between countries and flew across the ocean.

He must want to recreate that environment to use his time effectively.

However, Kai had yet to finish his explanation. “I’m not going to ask you to accompany me.”

“Eh?” Arba widened her eyes in surprise. “But…”

“I know that you are the strongest magician right now. However, you need to know that I’m a bit different after receiving this Crown Jewel. Hence, I’m planning to go alone.” Kai smiled.

“Still, you may need some help along the way.” Arba insisted on going with him because she should have some role in this journey.

Kai shook his head helplessly. “It’s not that I don’t want you to come with me. However, I want you to do something for me.”

“Do something for you? We can have Aston do all that stuff.”

“No, this is something only you can do. I want you to control the entire US Base.”

“What do you mean?”

“You should know there are multiple bases in the continent, right?”

“Yes.”

“I want you to make sure they are alright and eliminate all threats possible. In other words, you are there to make sure the enemies know it’s impossible to threaten us in this situation.”

“You want me to go to all bases and destroy any sea monsters around there?”

“Yes.” Kai nodded. “You should know that we have too many spots to attack, right? From Paraguay Base, Mexico Base, or even the US Base.”

Arba confirmed it. “They must be coming from the right, or you can say they will be coming from the Atlantic Ocean since it’s the ocean where they reside. They can’t go from the opposite direction because that place is the Whale Queen’s territory.”

“And what I want you is to make your presence known that they can’t attack from any of those places except South Carolina.”

“Eh? Are you going to involve the civilians?”

“No. To be honest, there is a fifty chance South Carolina will be the target of their attack while the other bases don’t necessarily have that much danger.” Kai raised his hand. “Instead of taking that fifty percent chance, I want you to increase that chance to one hundred percent. We can concentrate our force there while evacuating the civilians.”

“Ah. Instead of protecting all, you want them to definitely choose one where we can bring all our force…” Arba looked down, contemplating Kai’s decision. From her perspective, his idea wasn’t bad at all, especially since they could join hands to do all this.

“Yeah. I can use Teleportation Magic to send the soldiers, but I don’t think I can win against Neptune if I lose that much Magic Power before the fight even begins.”

“I understand. I agree with your decision.”

“Good. In that case, I am going.”

“Wait.” Arba reached his shoulder. Seeing Kai turn around, she asked, “What are you planning to do?”

Kai smiled. “I’m going around the world to convince people. Make sure the people from the base don’t know that the world will help us, okay?”

Arba’s body shook as she gulped down, realizing the extent of Kai’s plan. “Yes, my king. I will do it.”

“Good.” Kai waved his hand while teleporting himself to another place.

…

Remembering that conversation, Arba knew that Neptune had fallen into his trap. She stood in the air, mocking Neptune. “You are nothing compared to our king.”

“Don’t be too complacent, human.” Neptune was finally angered as he raised his hands. However, when he was about to release his magic, Neptune raised his head as if finding another reinforcement.

Five kilometers from where he was standing, a helicopter was floating in the air.

A woman opened the door while a soldier was holding binoculars in front of her eyes.

Her grey hair was fluttering, but she couldn’t help but smile when she saw Neptune talking to Arba. “Hold it for me, okay?”

The soldier nodded with a serious expression.

She then raised her left hand as if holding a bow. Soon, a white bow appeared in front of her before getting projected to a bigger bow in front of her.

Her right hand formed a small arrow projected to the bow, creating a thirty-meter long arrow like that of a ballista.

“The helicopter will shake a bit, hold it.” The woman commanded while taking a deep breath.

Suddenly, Neptune raised his head and had eye contact with her.

“Hah, seriously?” The woman clicked her tongue and shot her arrow. “God’s Arrow, Lokraisha!”

Boom.

The arrow flew faster than a bullet, heading straight to Neptune.

As if seeing it coming, Neptune raised his hand and formed the same spear he created earlier.

The spear didn’t fly to the arrow. Instead, it collided with the arrow like clashing between two spears.

The arrow split the water spear in all directions as the collision produced a shock wave that created raging waves below.

Neptune saw the arrow seemed to be penetrating his spear slowly and remembered what Seei told him a year ago. “So, this is the arrow that destroyed your shield.”

Seei’s body shook as he felt it was far stronger than before. Even so, he nodded, confirming it.

“It’s quite powerful indeed, but…” Neptune harrumphed as the water began to rise and engulf the arrow as if it was alive.

In an instant, the arrow disappeared into thin air while the water fell down.

“It seems we don’t need to wait anymore.” Neptune squinted his eyes, feeling that he had done so much in this war. “They are going to come at us. You’re free to go on a rampage.”

“!!!” Ilareca and the others had serious expressions on their faces. They all exchanged looks and nodded to each other.

Ilareca then pointed in multiple directions while giving her commands. “All top ten fighters are going to kill everyone in this isolated land while the rest will bring the magical beasts to swarm those reinforcements.”

“Understood.” All of them nodded and signaled to their own people, telling them what to do.

“I will give you thirty minutes. Don’t force me to make a move.” Neptune harrumphed and retreated. There was one reason he stopped his attack. Because Kai’s strength had yet to match his, he must be planning to exhaust his power to fight all these small flies. That was why he better waited until Kai made his appearance.

Meanwhile, Ilareca glanced at Arba since both of them were the strongest from each side.

Ria Ross, who was carried all the way to the battlefield, smiled and glared at the shark, Marza. Devain also had come down to meet the others while his eyes intertwined with Seei, the turtle.

Michelle stared at the octopus since both of them had multiple limbs. Though, in Michelle’s case, they were scythes.

Ayaka locked her vision on the shrimp while Tasha smirked at the Electric Eel. Felice frowned when the sea lion glared at her while Sofia smiled at the stingray.

They all knew that the last showdown was about to begin.
