The Magician of Sound

Inside Ikeda Family's Mansion, Ikeda Kenzo just finished his matter and walked through the corridor, heading back to his room.

It was a peaceful afternoon for him, albeit the atmosphere changed the moment he was about to reach his room.

He suddenly stumbled and felt immeasurable pressure, pressing him down.

"Ugh." Ikeda Kenzo almost fell to the ground. He used the wall on his right to support his body, preventing him from dropping to his knees. "Who is releasing this kind of killing intent? No one noticed this level of killing intent? In that case, I don't think many people can become the suspect… And it's not like they have no purpose of coming here uninvited. In that case, the only person who will come here… I think there will be another storm brewing in United Asia. I'm sure you also heard me, right, Kai Carter?"

His answer came in the form of a barrier that was erected from his room to right behind him. It was such powerful control over Magic, so he knew he wasn't wrong.

After that, he heard a male's voice echoing inside his ears. "I hope you don't mind about this sudden visit…"

Because of the barrier, no sound traveled past it, so no one would come to them. And Kai had made sure that no one was near the barrier.

Knowing the real identity of the trespasser, Kenzo let out a long sigh, resigning to his fate. He walked to his room with a troubled expression and opened the doors, finding a young man sitting in the middle of the room.

"Should I say it's been a while…" Kai smiled and looked Kenzo in the eyes.

"Ha, I wish I didn't need to say it." Kenzo shook his head and walked inside the room before sitting right in front of him. "I suppose… Your reason for coming here is—"

"Yes. I am taking back Ayaka's grandfather. It's time for us to make a move. On one hand, I would like to thank you for protecting my grandfather-in-law from his death. On the other hand, I want to beat you up because of your pursuit back then."

"I am ready if you want to take my life, but please leave my family out of this. I know your personality and I know you have been aware of my reason." Kenzo nodded with a calm expression even though he could die at any moment.

Kai closed his eyes for a moment, recalling the scene where they arrived here.

…

The next second, they appeared between two walls. When they raised their visions, they saw two big traditional mansions.

"I teleported us, but I feel this is a bit too lucky even for me…" Kai scratched the back of his head and said.

"So, where are we?"

"I am not so sure, but I heard someone mentioning the Ikeda Family two mansions to our right." Kai smiled and pointed his finger to the right. "And I believe that's the only place that has a basement where I can find a person sitting inside that place."

"Then, it must be the Ikeda Family. Not many families would have a basement, let alone with only one person inside. This must mean someone is keeping any other people from entering the basement other than that person." Ayaka nodded hurriedly.

Even though she was calm, she was still excited about the fact that she could reunite with her beloved grandfather.

To lock down the information, she even hid this fact from her parents even if it hurt her. She simply didn't want the information to make the Katsuragi Family aware of her grandfather and put him in another danger.

"I understand." Kai smiled and felt happy for her. "But don't move without my instruction, okay? We're going to infiltrate someone's place after all."

"Yes. It's been a year, so a few minutes don't matter. Even if my grandfather is in front of me, I won't move if you tell me not to move. I know you are not someone who does meaningless things."

"Thank you and sorry." Kai nodded and located every single person in the area before teleporting them to Ikeda Family's mansion.

They just entered a small room where Kai could pinpoint the location with his ears before teleporting them again straight to the room where the person sat.

They arrived inside another room. The wall was a simple white wall with no paintings or decorations, but he could see television in the right corner. The room itself was ten meters wide and five meters long, filled with a bathroom, living room, and bedroom. Everything a man needed was here.

At that time, he heard a "bang" and turned around, finding an old man dropping to his knees.

"You…You…" The old man was none other than Kudo Tarou, Ayaka's grandfather.

Because of what he said earlier, Kai started the conversation, "Grandfather-in-law, I will let Ayaka and the others talk to you first. I need to do another thing in this place. See you later."

Without waiting for a reply, Kai already left the room with a Teleportation Magic. Ayaka also understood his words, so she quickly leaped to her grandfather and hugged him tightly, expressing her feelings at the moment.

…

Remembering the scene, Kai smiled and looked at Kenzo. "You didn't mistreat my grandfather-in-law, so I should say you're kind of my benefactor. That's why I won't do anything to you and your family. Also, as thanks, I'm going to inform my teacher about your current condition. She should be able to do something…"

Kenzo closed his eyes as his expression turned serious. "What do you want from me? Sparing my life and my family from what we have… No, from what I have done to you, it's enough for the favor. As for the second one, I'm sure it's not."

"No. It's truly my way to repay my favor. However, I do indeed have one request."

"Say it."

"I hope you can stop your relationship with the Katsuragi Family. I don't want to kill someone unnecessary in the big picture."

"…" Kenzo let out a long sigh. "I guess that's my only option. I can understand your request, but I also have my own problem. My family members are still around the Katsuragi Family. If you begin your operation, they will be involved with it."

"I am not playing with you. I only want Katsuragi Family's core members and their important facilities. This should be enough to make such a big family decline. It's kind of like killing them after all. I also know that the Katsuragi Family is still an important piece of United Asia, so I won't destroy them by my own hand.

"The moment they begin to decline, all families they have suppressed this whole time will start chipping down their strength for themselves. The Katsuragi Family will not exist in the near future because of this, so my goal has been achieved." Kai smiled as he gave the information.

"I can see that indeed. Without anyone knowing your involvement, the Southern Family will think it's you, but because I'm alive, they will doubt that as well. After all, you will surely kill me even if I am an S Rank Magician. The other families won't think much and believe the Southern Family is the reason. It's not like someone dares to ask a question to me…" Kenzo chuckled. "That's how you will destroy the Katsuragi Family without anyone knowing. Should I call you a devil?"

Kai only smiled without giving him an answer, but it was already enough hint for his answer.
