The Magician of Sound

Bang.

A thunderous sound echoed inside the room. Unfortunately, only two people were able to hear such a sound in this soundproof room. The one who slammed the table itself, France's Prime Minister, Oliver Jacquard, and a squid that was able to sit like a normal human.

The squid had red skin and used two of its tentacles as if they were human legs while the rest acted as his hands.

"That b*tch!" Oliver gnashed his teeth. Veins bulged on his forehead and his eyes were wide open as if they could fall any minute. His heart beat rapidly until he could listen to the beating sound in his eardrums, resonating with his organs.

His face looked like he wanted to say something, but it was so red that it made such a thing not possible.

Oliver simply fell silent with his hands on the table, clutching it as though he wanted to rip it apart.

Instead of Oliver, the squid was the one breaking the silence. "I have told you not to underestimate Kai Carter. Do you think she is going to make any move if there's no outside force? He must be the one pulling all the strings."

"That's impossible. He has gone to Lithuania. And his women have been stopped inside the base, there's no way to contact her and convince her to do this type of thing. There's no way that witch will play with fire for no reason!" Oliver refused to believe that Kai was involved in this.

After all, the moment his first attempt to kill Kai failed, he started making Kai busy, forcing him to take missions. He also made sure to tighten the security around to prevent Kai from going around to meet Marsha.

That was why he was confused why Marsha decided to take action. "There must be something going on. There are three S Rank Magicians in this base. Rena Alberona has gone back to her home without getting involved in any of this matter. Jules Campbell is also occupied by the Red Ghost Organization that kidnapped their maid. Only Arnaud had been sniffing around. Even so, I know the capability of that man. He is not enough to move that witch!"

"As I said, you're underestimating Kai Carter. We have been suffering many losses every time we fought against him."

"You're the one overestimating Kai Carter. How do you think he can even get in contact with that witch? A mere phone call is not enough for something like this."

"What if it's enough?" He shrugged. "I can say it again and again. Whenever something big is going on, Kai Carter is the culprit. That's the decision of the Sea Council."

"You're overestimating him!" Oliver slammed the table again and glared at the squid. "Do you think he is some sort of God that can do everything?"

"…" The squid fell silent, even though he was fuming in anger inside. Due to the restriction, he couldn't say anything regarding Kai's identity as Human Race Protector, so he couldn't explain to him that humanity had been underestimating Kai Carter the whole time.

After all, it was the same as underestimating their own absolute king. It was already a capital offense and they were to be executed if such a thing happened. Unfortunately, humanity was too foolish and prideful, making them unable to see the truth before their eyes. No, they might have seen the truth, but they just refused to believe it.

"That's all I want to say. Kai Carter is the culprit and my point still stands even if you don't want to believe it."

Oliver gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, trying to find a reason to rebuke him again. However, the squid already stated, "Human Oliver, I think you do not understand your position here. We've agreed to make you one of us and save you from humanity's doom. If I said Kai Carter is the culprit, you're going to believe it even if you hate it! Understand?"

Oliver obviously didn't like such a thing. He thought he could control humanity and made them under him. He would rule humanity under these sea people before rising through the ranks, allowing them to see that placing him on the bottom rank was wrong.

Unfortunately, the squid didn't see it that way. He had fed up with Oliver's adamant attitude and ordered him to stop.

"Now, I want you to send those people to hit those two women because I will be moving as well. This is the only way to take advantage of the chaos and kill those important to him. We will kill Kai Carter right now." The squid commanded as he remembered how his two friends that had been with him during their stay in the EU Base were killed by Kai Carter and two women.

He wanted to avenge his fallen friends by killing those who he held dear.

"They haven't gotten any antidote yet, so they will follow your order now."

"Hmph. They are just ungrateful pricks who can't even appreciate all the things I've done to them. They haven't realized that humanity is doomed and they should start adapting to their life right away. Utter fools." Oliver gritted his teeth.

"Then why don't you become one as well?"

"If I were to become one, do you think who can you convince to help you? No one is as capable as me."

"There's still that woman."

"You don't understand her. You will only get surrounded by thousands of soldiers the moment you contact her." Oliver thought for a moment and said, "Wait for three days. I will take care of the media first before you can start your plan. If you think you can do anything here, you're underestimating humanity too much."

"Humanity is just a piece of sh*t to me." The squid snorted. "I, Kerza, am the proud warrior of the Sea Council. I can kill thousands of your soldiers without being unharmed. Even your S Rank Magicians won't be able to fight me."

"But you're scared of that little bastard, Kai Carter."

"Who said I'm afraid? The only capable human is him. It's easy for us to deem him as dangerous." Kerza harrumphed and realized there were already several fighters like him who died in Kai's hand. "My strength is fifth among the council. My strength is beyond your understanding."

"It doesn't change the fact that you can only utilize a percentage of your power on land."

"The land will soon be replaced by water. You will believe me when it happens right in front of your eyes after we conquer humanity. You'll realize that my king's power is something that you want to avoid at all costs."

Without wasting his time, the squid decided to rise from the seat and turn around, heading to the door. Before opening the door, he said, "Remember. You have three days. I will kill both women during the night."

Oliver gritted his teeth and saw Kerza leaving the room. He really wanted to beat that guy up, but he knew how powerful he was. If not for their cooperation, he would have died long ago.

At the same time, the one that told him about Zodiac's secret was Kerza. He only didn't have the right formula to create an army of Zodiacs since his approach was different from Ria Ross' formula that was only capable of creating a few elites.

His approach was to turn every single humanity to the perfect zodiacs, abandoning their humanity as a whole and evolving to another level. In order to do that, he needed to convince the media and the citizens first before using force to make them obedient.

There was also a certain medicine that could slow down the transformation process. And those who didn't want to turn into a complete one yet would follow his order just to gain the medicine.

He crossed his arms and fell into deep thought. "I really need to eliminate that witch because she will be a thorn to my plan. Kai Carter won't be back for a while, so I can help that Kerza to kill the two women before killing that witch. After that, no one in the union will be able to stop me. If they dare, I will simply kill them too. This is the only salvation to humanity."

Little did he know, he had been playing right on Kai and Marsha's palm as Marsha had finally left Sweden during that chaos and headed straight to the Union Headquarter to proceed to the last stage.
