The Magician of Sound

After Felice finished changing her clothes, the group then headed straight to a military base.

Marsha had prepared a special military plane for Kai and the others. She even took care of the information lockdown, making sure no one would know Kai had recovered. 

Because of their plan, the seat wasn't as comfortable as the normal airplane since this was a special plane for paratroopers.

The seats were two long benches in each corner with a giant door where they all could jump off the plane.

Kai stared at the scene in front of her in silence. 

"Say why did you choose Kai?" Ayaka asked while Michelle gave Felice some food.

These two had been spoiling Felice this whole time because of Felice's silence and poker face, making them think Felice was a sad, abandoned child. 

"Master could understand me better than anyone else," Felice answered honestly. Unlike other people's encouragement, Kai only stated facts with some proof that came from himself. 

That was what Felice needed at that moment. It wasn't some false hope but hope in the harsh truth. 

"I heard you are going to come to the US Base after a year." 

"Ten months."

"Right… Are you sure you want to come here?"

"Yes."

"By the way, I'm going to shorten the time limit…" Kai said with a serious expression. "One year is too long."

"Eh? What's this guy? He is a devil. Are you sure you want this guy to be your teacher?" Michelle asked with a concerned face. 

"Yes. I will do it, Big Brother." Felice answered Kai instead, showing her answer to Michelle at the same time.

"Kai, I think you are too harsh…" Michelle made a weird smile. 

"She is too old to start to be my student. At least, I'm not planning the same thing as what my teacher did…" Kai shrugged and looked away. 

"Your Teacher?" Felice raised her eyebrows. She was curious about what she did as she found Michelle and Ayaka looking away. 

Sofia tilted her head in confusion while Tasha explained, "You see, Ria Ross once killed him almost eleven thousand times." 

"…" Felice fell silent and looked down. She couldn't help but remember when she almost died and realized how painful it was. And eleven thousand times… She couldn't imagine Kai's pain. 

"The pain reduction was zero and Kai was only 7 years old at that time." Tasha continued. "If I'm not wrong, it's within a year…" 

"…" Felice looked at Kai with admiration. "Teacher, how could you even withstand something like that? Normal people would have gone crazy already… Even I probably can only reach a thousand. At that point, I may have started changing to something unknown." 

"I was terrified and got a trauma after that… To the point I wouldn't even call my teacher when I needed her the most and almost died because of it." Kai added with a serious expression, telling her that it was hard for him. 

Felice nodded in understanding. Even so, she thought Kai was amazing that it only reached that point. 

She believed Kai would flinch or had some sort of psychological disorder from just hearing her name, but she knew Kai and Ria Ross had mended their relationship, becoming a better teacher and student. 

That was why she admired Kai deeply for withstanding such a torturous experience.

"Anyway, getting accustomed to death will make you lose your fear. However, fear itself is not a bad thing. It's something that shows you your weakness. After that, you just need to overcome it and grow stronger and kinder. That's what I believe." Kai smiled. 

"I understand. I will follow Big Brother's instructions without a fuss." Felice nodded with a serious expression. "I will get stronger and not tarnish your name."

"It's not that important. Just walk at your own pace, I rather see you relying on me than having you break because of the pressure." Kai came to her, bent his knees, and patted her head. "Understand?"

Felice made a big smile and nodded. 

After a long talk, they finally arrived above Korea as the pilot came out of the cockpit to inform them. 

"Sir, we have arrived in Korea. Only three minutes away from our destination."

"Thank you."

"No, Sir. We should be the ones thanking you. If you were not in the EU Base, we would have experienced a catastrophe. It's our pleasure to help you." The soldier saluted.

Kai straightened his back, saluted, and extended his hand, shaking the soldier's hand.

"Good luck, Sir."

"You too. Be careful on the way back." Kai then asked, "Open the door."

"Yes, Sir." The soldier then quickly made his way to the door. 

Meanwhile, Felice tilted her head as she didn't know about the plan yet. "What are you planning to do, Big Brother?"

"We are getting off right now."

"Eh? But we are still in the air…" 

"Of course. What's the point of jumping down if we are not in the air?" Kai smiled. "What? Are you afraid of heights?"

"Ehm, not really. But there's no parachute around here." Felice shook her head. 

"Why do you even need one?" Kai furrowed his eyebrows. "Your power alone can make you float." 

"Yes, I mean—"

Kai covered her mouth with his finger. "It's okay. Just follow me."

"Mhmhmh!" Felice wanted to say something, but Kai already jumped together with her, falling freely. 

The rest soon followed.

"Yahoo!"

Felice panicked a bit. She knew Kai also had enough power to stop the fall, but it was too reckless from her point of view. 

However, when she was about to say something, she was stunned by the view from the sky. There were many ruined buildings filled with trees and overgrown woodbines. 

The river in the south, the fresh looking scenery that seemed to blend with nature itself.

"This…" 

"It's ironic, isn't it?" Kai whispered to her ears. "The world is this beautiful, but it's ruined. However, it's even more when I thought to myself how I don't want the world to be restored to its former appearance." 

Felice remembered the world before the apocalypse. That world was quite chaotic. Ice on the north and south poles had been melting and the sea level increased. Pollution was everywhere, making the world hot and the weather extreme.

Forest fires happened every year, making the world even worse. The world was on the brink of destruction for humans to live, she thought. 

That was why she understood Kai's words. The current human had solved the pollution problem with Magic Power. The Earth also had been healing itself as the two poles had been saved from its predicament. 

At the same time, this beauty of nature before her was truly mesmerizing.

She closed her eyes and savored the feeling behind Kai's words. 

"Do you want to show me this sight, Big Brother?" 

"That's a part of it, but I'm sure you will arrive at a different answer than mine. I just want to show you everything first before you make a decision. After all, it will be one of the most important decisions in your life."

"Big Brother…" Felice smiled and nodded. "Thank you for taking care of me this whole time." 

"It's only two months." 

"We will be together every now and then in the future." Felice made a cheeky smile, finally acting like her age. 

Kai patted her head with a smile before giving the signal to Tasha. 

They were all soon swallowed by a pink Magic Circle and teleported to the ground safely.
