The Magician Of Sound

Chapter 368 - Advices

"…" Kai looked down.

"Why are you looking down?" The dolphin asked.

Clot remembered something and said lazily. "That's the human society."

"Now that you mention it, those people seem to be getting an order from higher up. So, the protector in your race is not that respected huh…It is only for the time being though, because sooner or later, you will soon be respected and feared." The dolphin nodded in understanding.

"But I am sure that those people will try to control him." Clot added.

"Fair enough. What are we going to do then?" The dolphin asked and turned to Kai.

Kai didn't know the answer. He had never put a thought into this future. Ignoring everything would be an option, but if they aimed at his family, the situation would become more complicated.

In the meantime, a question came across his mind. "How strong are you two?"

"Me?" The dolphin thought for a moment. "My ultimate move can make all living beings die…The range is about the core area? Or what you humans called a small human town." The dolphin answered.

"Just a small natural disaster." The answer from Clot's mouth was something scary, but when she said it with her current lazy attitude, it looked like not a big deal.

However, Kai remembered that her power was wind magic. If it was a small natural disaster, Clot must be able to summon a typhoon.

"Well, my mentor can spurt out a powerful water stream that can shoot you to the sky. If it hits people, I am sure they will die." The dolphin recalled the memory with his mentor, the whale.

"…" Kai never expected that the protectors could actually endanger the whole world if they acted together. No wonder their sacrifice could call a calamity that affected the whole world.

He looked at himself with a sad expression, wondering. "I don't know if I can be like you guys."

"No need to be down. From what I can feel, your magic power is transferred to someone else…Hmm, if I am not wrong, it's the woman beside you earlier. Well, it doesn't matter if you take it back or not because the base remains in your body. So, if you decide to increase your power, you will be able to do it just fine."

"Indeed. There is nothing wrong with your body too, so I guess you won't have a problem in the future. Just believe what you think is right and make a decision that you won't regret." Clot nodded, helping the dolphin assured him.

Kai couldn't help but smile. In the humans, he might be special, but when he compared himself to the protectors, he was nothing but a small ant. He realized how lacking he was this whole time.

"I am really grateful for your words." Kai smiled. "I will do my best to prevent the war, but I am not sure whether I can…The least I can do is to prolong it."

"That's also an option. If you can prolong it until the magic particles are spent again, all people will lose their power. Only us, the protectors, will keep living to witness the change of civilizations. If we deem that they are threatening the Earth, we will call another calamity." The dolphin agreed with Kai's suggestion.

"Yeah. That's about it. And I think I have one more thing to promise." Kai thought for a moment, gathering his thoughts. "I promise you that I won't give any information regarding this place, and if they ask me to participate in this war regardless of the rank, I won't join them. At the very least, I don't want another big war, especially with two protectors."

"Haha… That's also a good solution. But you don't need to protect us that much. I can see that you love the two girls beside you…If they are threatened, you will feel conflicted. That's why you just need to say the necessary information. We will deal with the rest. And if you think they are pushing you too much, you should inform us. We can help you too." The dolphin assured him again.

"Indeed. Only protectors can understand other protectors. If you are threatened, it's our job to help you solve that problem because we are alone in this world. No one is as strong as us and people often fear our strength." Clot nodded.

"That's why you became a deity in the eyes of people."

Clot closed her eyes. "I don't really care as long as they don't disturb me and make me do something unnecessary."

"Haha… You lazy bum."

"Anyway, your promise is enough for us. Instead of sacrificing yourself, it's better to share it with each other. If you can't trust anyone, trust us." Clot stretched her claw to tap Kai's forehead. "So…I welcome you from joining the club, new guy."

Kai widened his eyes, never expecting the giant sloth to look this cool. Despite her lazy attitude, she seemed to be someone responsible and nice to know.

"Yes. Thank you very much. I lack many things, but I will do my best." Kai bowed his head.

"If you learn other languages, you might be able to command magical beasts too, you know. Well, just make sure that they have no leaders because some usually have. For example, if you try to control the beasts around the outer area of this forest, you will be able to do it pretty easily.

"However, it won't be the same case if you go to the core area where we belong. They are very loyal to us and won't listen to you. It might be the same for those fishy tribes. If you try to command them, they will choose the fishy tribes over you. Unless you bring someone like my mentor, I doubt it will be useful." The dolphin kept giving him advice and everything was useful to him sooner or later.

Kai felt the overwhelming favor and bowed his head as well. "Thank you very much."

"Why don't you become his mentor?" Clot asked.

"Nah, I can't teach anyone. That's the pact I have with my mentor. How about you? You can do it, no?"

"I am too lazy to do it. Besides, he is better to learn it from another human because whatever they teach will suit him." Clot shook her head. "I am not sure whether there is another human capable of teaching him, but yeah, you seriously need a mentor. Even if it's not a protector, as long as there is someone who understands how a protector fights, I am sure you will become one sooner or later."

"I understand. I will do my part in this area." Kai nodded. He had a clue about their existence and had been searching for them, so Kai took their suggestions and became more excited to find an ancient civilization that still survived until now.

The problem would be the lack of information. He didn't know whether the ancient civilization wanted to teach him about this or they might not even be aware of this power because of the passing time. If that time came, he might return to this place to ask for their advice.

"Alright. It's time for you to go. I don't have anything to say to you. How about you, Clot?"

"Nope."

"Do you want to say something?" The dolphin then asked Kai.

Kai thought for two minutes before shaking his head. "I just want to thank you for everything. It's all new to me."

"Haha...Don't hesitate to come here. We always welcome a friend. Alright, see you later."

Clot nodded.

"See you later." Kai smiled, turned around, and looked to the sky. A magic circle appeared on the ground and launched him to the sky. After that, another pair of magic circles, one above and one below, stabilized Kai positioned in the sky, allowing him to stay afloat.

He looked at the two and waved his hands. "I am going. Thank you for all the things you have told me. I will keep everything in my mind."

"Yes. Don't forget to visit me in the future. You will be amazed at my place." The dolphin ducked down, swimming at a fast speed. Suddenly, it shot to the sky as if it was his way to send him off.

Clot only raised one of her claws.

Kai suddenly felt the wind enveloping him as if protecting him on his return trip. The wind was warm and block the chilly night breeze.

He kept smiling and flew back to their base.

To his surprise, none of them was asleep. They were waiting for Kai to return.

"You guys…" Kai thought they had slept, considering the time was already 3 AM.

"We are worried about you." Michelle rolled her eyes.

"Indeed. Especially after you made us leave." Tasha nodded in agreement.

Ayaka and Sofia exchanged looks and shrugged since the two had told him the reason.

"So, you know about the shadow, Captain?" Evan asked.

"Yes. But I am sorry, I can't tell you anything." Kai smiled gently, not knowing how to apologize.

"It's fine. I guess all the things you said to that general were a lie," Evan commented.

"It's not a lie, you dummy." Isabelle turned to Evan and looked at him as if looking at a fool. "He is talking about himself. Everything is himself. The guide, the ears, and the person."

Kai scratched the back of his head. "Yes. That's about it. But I hope you keep this a secret. I don't lie about the fact that it might affect humanity as a whole."

"Don't worry. We know about the severity of this matter. Well, as long as we keep this matter a secret and tell them we have no knowledge about what was happening here, we should be fine." Tommy nodded.

"There is a drug as well, but everything is very vague, so he might be targeted in the future." Isabelle narrowed her eyes.

"Right. We agree, especially if there is a new election. The change might or might not affect us." Eve and Eva nodded at the same time.

"Haha…I am just proud to know someone like you. If it's something because of me, I won't hesitate to throw my life away because of my failure. This is a promise." Nicholas gave a thumb up.

Kai smiled as he felt blessed to have comrades like this. "Thank you."
