The Magician of Sound

"Ah, that was nice." Ria Ross stretched her hands upward and said with a blissful expression. She looked refreshed after fighting Kai in that intense match. "Nice try, you brat."

Kai's simulation chamber and the person in question slowly revealed himself. He had a bit disappointed face, but still filled with energy.

Kai looked at Ria and sighed. In the instant he thought he could win, Ria pulled the clutch and won. He closed his eyes to watch the last scene on his mind once again.

…

Two minutes ago, when he slashed at her and sent a kick as a reassurance, Kai thought he could win at that moment. 

However, Ria's counterattack began. Three swords from the magic circle on the ceiling struck forth, aiming at his hand.

It only took him an instant to realize that his hand and foot were aligned. He could easily shift his hand and changed his target a little bit to avoid these three swords. It was different for his foot. Having no ability to change direction as to retain his balance, Kai decided to sacrifice his food at this point. 

He gathered enough resolve in his heart and slightly adjusted his hand to the side, avoiding the three swords. The aim became a bit off, but he could somehow adjust the target and aim to stab Ria's heart.

Kai looked at the three swords in which one of them pierced his foot, stopping him from kicking her. He gritted his teeth as he endured the pain, like how he endured the pain on his hand.

"Ha!" Letting out a weak groan to pump his determination, Kai pushed his sword toward Ria's heart before noticing something was off. 

*Crack!*

Suddenly, a cracking sound echoed through his ears and this sound destroyed all his hopes. In this high-speed battle, it was already hard enough to adjust one's movement like Kai earlier, let alone moving it to the second time.

'Wait!' Kai suddenly widened his eyes, bit his lips, and understood everything from the beginning. 'I see. Teacher has beaten me as soon as I move toward her.' 

A sword suddenly appeared from the ground, striking Kai's sword from the bottom. Even with all of his power, Kai could only adjust the sword so it wouldn't fly off from his hand. He had stopped his Vibration Sword magic earlier, so he couldn't cut through this sword like butter. Instead, it was knocked away and somehow ended up on Ria's stomach.

Ria took this chance to deal a decisive blow on Kai. A sword appeared right on her hand as she swung it while falling to the ground. Because of her position, she couldn't slash his neck, but it was enough to split him into two right on his stomach.

Thus the result between the clash between Kai Carter and Ria Ross.

…

Kai opened his eyes and sighed once again. He looked at the three girls that slowly walked at him with a worried expression. They knew Kai was pretty shaken about the result, and they thought about how to comfort him.

Before they could say something, Ria already beat them with a laugh. "Haha… Your progress is beyond my imagination. I almost died back there."

"Are you trying to comfort me? All I can hear is your sarcastic voice." Kai narrowed his eyes.

"Ah, you found out?" She grinned.

"I lost the moment I deactivated my Vibration Sword." Kai let out a long sigh. "By convincing me about the weakness of my Vibration Sword, you somehow instilled the thought about deactivating it in my mind.

"In the end, I deactivated it and charged at you. The moment it happened, you used the first three swords as baits. Now that I think about it, the positioning of the three swords didn't let me shift my hands to the right. In other words, you already knew about the attack from underground.

"I don't have the Vibration Sword anymore, so that last sword strike managed to push my sword away. If I have it, your sword will be the one to be cut. Then, I will win this match. Even so, this is only me ranting about the match."

"Haha… I'm satisfied to see you know that much. I don't need to worry about your observation skill either." Ria nodded, satisfied. "Besides, you have almost killed me. If you throw your balance off to get one extra second, you should be able to slash my heart. The result will probably be a draw."

Kai stared at her with a poker face, hearing her say 'Draw' instead of victory. Even after all of it, she still thought he couldn't win.

"Don't worry about it too much. You are still too young. If you beat me right now, the higher up will start looking at you like prey. I bet you don't want your life to be restricted, so just get stronger for now. I will be waiting for you." She smiled.

Kai closed his eyes and nodded. 'Thank you."

"No, you can get some rest and meet me after fifteen minutes." Ria Ross thought for a moment and said. "All of you have a room. Ayaka knows that place, so you can ask here where to put your luggage."

She then left the room.

Ayaka looked at their expression first. All of this was because of him, so Kai broke his silence. "We can grab our luggage first and put it there."

Ayaka merely nodded and said, "Sure."

After grabbing their stuff, Ayaka led them toward a corridor. Kai noticed that she somehow got too conscious about the only room in the corridor, but didn't say anything. It was obvious that it was the operation room.

There were around ten rooms inside this corridor in which the first room belonged to the professor. Kai just chose a room beside Ria's room without thinking about anything.

Michelle, Tasha, and Ayaka also chose their respective room, not far from Kai's room.

Kai had a command from Ria to meet her after fifteen minutes, but only after an hour, he finally came out of his room. It was also done in a very sneaky way without alarming the others. At first, Michelle banged his door, asking him whether he wanted to go or not, but got no response. 

When he opened his door, only Michelle waited long enough for him. "Professor Ria is waiting for you. Tasha and Ayaka are buying some stuff for our dinner."

Kai made a weird expression and nodded. 

"Yo." Ria made an evil smile as she stretched her hand toward Kai, demanding him to hand over something.

Although he was embarrassed because Michelle was here too, he still handed a glass tube containing a white liquid.

Ria didn't care about his embarrassment. She took the tube, rose from her seat, and walked toward the operating room. 

Kai and Michelle followed her without saying anything, especially Michelle. She shouldn't speak anything about this matter to make Kai wasn't embarrassed anymore.

As soon as they went inside the room, she quickly opened the tube and separated it into a few tubes. She only needed a portion of it and poured it into a small glass cup. Taking out a few liquids from her collections, Ria began her test.

At the same time, Michelle's hand slowly sneaked inside Kai's hand before holding it tightly.

Kai glanced at her and found the serious expression filled with hope. He smiled and held her hand back. She had been hoping for this time since a few years ago, and with one presented in front of her, she hoped… wished for this medicine to be a success.

Kai also closed his eyes, hoping the same thing.

Only after an unbearable half an hour did Ria suddenly straighten her back, looked at Kai and Michelle with a smile, and said. "It's effective."

The burst of happiness flashed on Michelle's heart and made her couldn't hold it anymore. She hugged Kai tightly and said, "We did it."

Kai could feel the anxiety from the shaking hands, so he hugged her back and stroked her hair. "Yes."

…

At the same time, Ayaka and Tasha, who were not aware of the result, walked to buy some groceries for dinner.

Ayaka looked down for a few minutes while walking toward the store. She took a deep breath and braved her heart to ask. "Why did we leave? You can do it together, we-"

Even with all of that, the words stuck on her throat.

Tasha's expression distorted a little bit before turning into her poker face again. She shook her head while closing her eyes. "Ayaka… Why did you stop? That was the reason why we left." 

Listening to her words, Ayaka couldn't help but apologize. "I'm sorry."

"Although we have recognized each other, it was still different from doing it together. We are not in some movies or whatsoever that we can just blast our way to create a scene like that. What? Do you want to suddenly turn into a lesbian to play together?" Tasha paused for a moment and continued. "I might be able to do it together but not now… I need time to accept that."

Ayaka had no words to say anything because the deepest part of her heart also told her the same. "I'm sorry… for asking a dumb question." 

They bought everything they needed but knowing that the deed had been done by looking at Michelle's smiley face. However, neither Tasha nor Ayaka said anything about it and acted like nothing happened. Michelle also didn't brag, respecting each other.

In the end, they stayed for two days in Ria's house, and only Ayaka couldn't do it because the medicine for her animal blood wasn't ready yet. Ria promised to finish her medicine as soon as possible. 

They did it in Ria's house, not because they were perverts or something. They wanted Ria to check their bodies up after doing the deed, making sure there was no future problem.

Luckily, after going several tests, none of them had a problem. Michelle and Tasha pumped their fists secretly. 

After finishing all the matters in this house, Kai's group finally went home. 

In front of her house, a taxi to the station was already standing by. Ria saw them off but didn't forget to say another warning to Kai.

"I know that you are happy with the medicine, but do it in moderation, okay? There aren't many supplies anyway. And don't forget to wear protection or have a pill first for the time being because the medicine for pregnancy is still in progress." 

Kai nodded with a grim expression because he took this matter seriously. He wanted to be responsible for all the things he had done, so there was no way he didn't heed her warning. 

"Teacher, Thank you so much." Kai bowed to her, showing his utmost gratitude.

"It's fine." Ria Ross smiled gently. "See you soon, Kai."

"Yes. You too, take care of your health." Kai smiled as he looked at Ria, who waved her hand. They went to the taxi and finally went home.
