The Magician of Sound

"What is happening?"

"Where is the enemy?"

"What just happened?"

"Why do I feel like there\'s something missing in my memory?"

"What is this power?"

The soldiers panicked because they didn\'t understand what was going on. They all knew they were on the battlefield, fighting against the enemies that wanted to destroy their base. However, the second they realized, the enemies were already gone.

All they found were traces of numerous footsteps on the ground, showing that the enemies were there a moment ago.

Even all the Generals were as confused and panicked as them.

Suddenly, Michelle came out of Kai\'s body while clutching her head.

"Are you okay?" Kai gently asked while trying to support her body.

"Yeah. It\'s just a little headache. My mind went blank for a second and here I am… What just happened, Kai?" Michelle frowned, feeling this matter wasn\'t as simple as they originally thought.

However, Kai simply sighed and said, "I will explain it together with the others. For now, I need to calm them down first."

Like how Kai wanted to calm them down, there was another person who shared the same opinion as him other than Ria Ross.

She was none other than Sofia. Experiencing this kind of situation twice, Sofia didn\'t think much more, knowing that Kai would explain it to her if she deserved to know it.

After all, she had gotten the information about the Protector as well. Sofia was aware that the talk between protectors was not something they could hear because the graveness of that matter could lead to a giant war that would bring the loser to extinction.

Seeing Tasha and Ayaka having the same reactions as the others, Sofia grabbed their shoulders to calm them down, saying, "It\'s fine. I think Kai will be explaining everything to us later."

"I guess you\'re right." Ayaka remembered what Leah had shared about Kai\'s status.

Tasha also nodded in acknowledgment and started to calm down.

They finally saw Kai flying in the air as his voice suddenly filled the entire battlefield with his magic amplifying his sound.

"Everyone needs to calm down. I will explain everything."

When the soldiers heard his voice, they all raised their vision and instinctively fell silent, knowing that Kai might be the only one who could explain everything to them.

Even the Generals waited for his explanation.

"There are mysterious entities on this planet that have been lurking around, ensuring that Earth can still go on without a problem. They are called Protectors.

"Their power is so powerful that if they decide to destroy the US Base, they can do it as simple as flipping their hand. And one of them just came to this battlefield to stop the war, avoiding the worst possible outcome of this war.

"I don\'t know why, but that mysterious entity had chosen me and my teacher as the witness and told us that we couldn\'t go to any war within a year or else the same thing would happen to us.

"He told me that your memory would be wiped out and you would become a retard. If you don\'t believe me, it\'s fine. However, think about what happened earlier… I\'m sure you have experienced it… The mysterious entity had erased your memory for a few minutes because he didn\'t want to be seen.

"Imagine what do you think if he tries to harm the people in the US Base… I\'m sure you can understand what kind of catastrophe we need to face. Hence, I hope that everyone can return with me and cease any big war within a year.

"They have been watching us this whole time and I don\'t think I can escape from their eyes too. I know this is too absurd for you to swallow, but it is as it is." Kai let out a long sigh, wondering whether he could accept them.

Little did he know, this explanation incited the hearts of the soldiers, especially the religious ones.

"Is this the will of God?" Some of the soldiers dropped on their knees as they looked at Kai.

"But he said there are multiple entities?"

"Does this mean there are many Gods? Wait, the world also knows many religions. What if all of them are true?"

"But why did Gods abandon us during the apocalypse?"

"But we are still here, hey? What they don\'t want is probably the extinction of humanity?"

"That… may be true."

"What?"

All of them were talking to each other, discussing Kai\'s explanation.

Kai maintained his expression, but in his heart, he started sweating. He muttered inwardly, \'How can this happen? Well, at least, this gives them something to think about. It\'s not like I am rectifying a certain religion…

\'Besides, Protector was worshipped like a half God in the past, so they\'re not wrong?\' Kai started thinking about the effect his explanation would bring to the entire base.

No, the entire world would soon turn into an uproar when they believed what Kai said. There would be numerous conspiracy theories, but they would soon be dispelled when Kai\'s status was exposed.

At that time, there was no point in concealing it anymore since his power should have become so strong that no human would be able to kill him.

The same applied to his girls and family.

However, their reaction was unexpected.

They all looked at Kai with adoration as one of them said, "He is the chosen one. He is the Saint!"

"But what religion?"

"There are multiple religions, so can we safely assume all of them?"

"Just believe what you have believed this whole time. It\'s going to be fine…"

"That may be true."

"Kai Carter seems to have no explanation about his appearance as well."

"Yeah. That must be it."

"No matter what religion it is, we all know Gods and Goddesses do exist and have been watching us this whole time."

"That\'s right. Most religions are good… They are teaching you to do good things."

"They want peace, so we shall have peace for a year."

"Still, it doesn\'t change the fact he is a chosen one."

"Yeah, he is a chosen one."

Their talks became even more ridiculous as they began to glorify Kai.

Ria was chuckling when she heard their comments. She wondered if there would be a new religion soon with Kai as the Saint…

Sofia and the others also tried hard to hold their laugh since they knew the truth about the protectors.

Many also didn\'t believe what happened, but Kai only explained such a thing, so they needed to swallow it for now.

They were sure that Kai would explain something to the president too. Whether they knew it or not, they would just wait and see.

Kai was aware of this matter, but he also had the strength to reject the proposal, considering his strength was far above them.

If Kai decided to escape, the US Base couldn\'t handle the consequence, especially with how the soldiers glorified Kai. Many citizens would surely do the same after this incident.

Kai could only ignore their reactions until everything came to light one year from now.

After all, he believed the enemies would launch an all-out attack after the one-year peace period was over since Kai had been visited by another Protector.

Although his objective in hiding his status was a failure, they gained a year to prepare for everything. And within that year, Kai would have claimed the throne as a full-fledged protector.

Still, he had several things to do, so he said, "All troops. Retreat."
