The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 71 - S Rank Snake

"I'll go get Miss Kudo for a bit," Kai said.

"Just call her Ayaka like you usually do," he said. "By the way, where did she go?"

"She's there." Kai pointed at one of the tallest buildings.

He glanced at Kai, wondering why he didn't stop her even though he knew she went there. But considering his ears, he thought Kai must have known that it wasn't dangerous, so he let her be.

"All right." He nodded. "I'll ask the others to set up a few traps before standing by in the helicopter.

Kai then moved toward the building. He didn't know what Ayaka wanted to do inside, but it seemed that she had been doing something. When he arrived, he saw Ayaka playing with her magic circle.

"Ayaka, what are you doing?"

"I… I'm making my Magic Bomb." She said. She had been planting her new skill, Magic Bomb, throughout the building. She noticed that they had been making loud noises one after another, so she decided to come to this building and plant her Magic Bomb.

She chose this building because it was a building that had the most strategic position and without any magical beasts nearby. So, when she saw Kai come, she knew she didn't manage to help them again. "Are we going now?"

"Around one and a half minutes. We'll have visitors in around thirty seconds." Kai said.

"!!!" Ayaka realized. "Magical beasts?"

"Yeah."

"From where?" Ayaka suddenly felt more enthusiastic.

Kai pointed in a single direction. It seemed that they would pass this building first. Because of that, Ayaka blinked her eyes a few times, wondering if this was her chance.

"I'll destroy this building with my Magic Bomb and let it bury the magical beasts. This will give us time to get away." Ayaka grabbed Kai's shoulders.

"So that's what you've been wanting to do this entire time?" Kai looked at her.

Ayaka immediately placed her hands and activated her magic circle. It was set to fifteen seconds. She then grabbed Kai and used her Fire Wings to get away from the building. She said, "I know I'm not really useful to you or Father and Mother, but I'll keep trying. Even if this one doesn't bring any result and go unnoticed, I'll do it again and again. Until at one point, I can truly help all of you."

Kai was astonished. Just from his conversation with Yoshihiro, he knew he was a protective parent. And the reason why he wanted Ayaka to guard the chopper was so that she wouldn't need to fight them.

Kai involuntarily smiled as he murmured, "You're fine as you are."

"???" Ayaka looked at Kai with confusion because she couldn't hear him just now. She flew toward the helicopter and saw several magical beasts coming toward their position.

Kudo Chiyo and Becca were surprised to see her come out of a building. Because of the battle, they didn't realize that she had gone to that building. When they were about to voice their concern, they finally heard the sound of explosions.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

More than ten explosions were heard as they saw the building that towered up to the sky suddenly crumble and bury the magical beasts that were trying to pass the building.

When they arrived, Kai immediately said, "Let's go. We can chat later since we need to get going. The traps should be able to buy enough time for us."

They also heard the helicopter engine and knew they should go. Although they wanted to ask Ayaka why she did that, they refrained themselves and went into the helicopter.

All of them boarded the chopper and flew away from the spot. Kai took a last glimpse of the monster, observing how they were trapped and could only look at them leaving without being able to do anything.

"Ayaka, what were you doing just now?" Kudo Chiyo said.

"Mother, I'm sick of always needing to be protected. I want to help both of you. I don't want to just watch all of you scrap your flesh just to protect me!" Ayaka shouted.

When Yoshihiro heard that, he could only sigh inwardly. It seemed she had truly grown up.

"You're still 17 years old. You have a bright future ahead, so let the old pave the way for you," Chiyo tried to reprimand her.

It was at this time that Ayaka Carter put her hand on Chiyo's shoulder. "Paving the way and caging her is almost the same.

"If you're truly supportive of her, then what you should do is let her do whatever she wants and take care of her mistakes," she said. "I really want to do that, but I can't do so due to my weak ability."

"Still…" Kudo Chiyo gritted her teeth, wanting to argue. Even so, she knew Ayaka Carter was right. She was the one who was being overprotective. This would only halt her growth.

"I'm already 17 years old, Mother. Please trust Ayaka a little bit more. I'm afraid I'll lose both you and father without knowing it like Grandfather." Ayaka was saddened when she didn't even know her grandfather was killed until that incident.

"Ayaka…" Kudo Chiyo looked at her with worry.

"It's enough. Maybe it's time for her to soar. We can worry about her, but not stop her," Yoshihiro said.

"..." Kudo Chiyo looked remorseful before nodding her head helplessly.

Kai suddenly noticed that Shirotsuka Sanae finally woke up after a few days of being unconscious. She had a fever a few days ago because of her wound, so Ayaka Carter was focused on treating her. And it seemed that she managed to wake up, albeit not having any energy in her body.

"Mhmm…" Sanae slowly opened her eyes, looking at the unfamiliar place and hearing a loud sound. She then heard, "Teacher, I'm glad you've woken up."

"Where is this?" Shirotsuka Sanae summoned the little bit of energy she had to ask.

"We're flying to the US base with this helicopter because of the series of events. Don't say anything, just focus on recovering."

He then used magic to lower her brain wave and made her sleepy again. After making her fall asleep, he then felt relieved. The others also didn't voice any concern about his action as they knew she needed rest.

After about four hours, they were finally nearing the S-rank magical beast's territory. Yoshihiro immediately warned them.

"We're going to enter the Snake God's territory in five minutes. Kai, ready your teleportation." Yoshihiro announced.

Kai nodded at his order and activated his skill, ready to use teleportation at any moment of notice. He could teleport them a hundred kilometer from this place, but he might pass out after he teleported them.

However, it should be fine since they had the Kudos as their fighters. He was also curious about this giant snake that had a length of one kilometer. Together with its giant body, it would be pretty easy to find his position.

After entering its territory for a few kilometers, they had yet to find the snake. The snake had a vast territory, so Kai wanted to meet the snake first and confirm its position before using the teleportation magic. He was afraid that if he used the teleportation magic recklessly, they might meet the snake on the other side. They wouldn't be able to do anything and would only be able to accept their demise.

Yoshihiro proceeded with caution. It seemed that they were near the snake as they couldn't see a single flying magical beast around.

They had found numerous flying magical beasts on this trip. Most of them were shot down by Tasha's. Luckily, they didn't meet any powerful flying beasts, as they might need to avoid it.

The deeper they went inside their territory, the quieter the place felt. Yoshihiro wanted to take a detour, but it would only waste fuel. The situation became tense as everyone present was looking left and right, trying to find the giant snake.

Kai also focused his entire being on his hearing, trying to locate the snake. With a snake that big, it should be quite loud.

It was at this time that Ayaka suddenly pointed her finger. "Look."

All of them immediately turned their head. What greeted their sight was a huge trail on the ground. Everything was wiped out on that trail. Trees, giant buildings, a skyscraper, and everything else, none was there. Everything was crushed to the ground and became a pile of rubbles.

Kai didn't find anything, so they proceeded again. Until at one point, Kai and Yoshihiro shouted at the same time. "Found it!"

Kai heard the movement of a huge creature while Yoshihiro found a huge snake five kilometers in front of them.

When everyone turned their heads, they could see a giant anaconda moving slowly on the ground.

However, when the anaconda found them, it slowly raised its head to the sky and roared, "Scree!"

"!!!" All of them felt danger the moment they heard that. They then saw the giant snake suddenly move toward them at a speed that was beyond their imagination.

They thought if the snake moved that slow, they would be able to attack it or just take a detour without using Kai's teleportation. But when they saw that speed, it almost gave them a heart attack. As expected from an S-rank magical beast. If it could only move slowly, it wouldn't be an S-rank magical beast as it would only become a punching bag.

"Not good!" Yoshihiro cursed and shouted, "Kai, now!"

"I know." He immediately made a huge teleportation magic circle around their helicopter. Seeing that, Yoshihiro halted their advance to make sure they were in the magic circle.

The snake was charging so fast it was almost only a few hundred meters away from them. Kai clasped his hand while sweating as he finally activated his magic circle.

"Teleportation!"
