The Magician of Sound

Chapter 492 - Friendship



After agreeing to bring Kai across the ocean, the eagle quickly lowered its head and body, asking Kai to hop on his back.

Kai waved to the wolf and said, "(Goodbye.)"

The wolf only nodded his head, not saying anything as if it couldn\'t bear to separate from Kai.

Now that he understood them more and looked at them, the magical beasts were actually cute. They were indeed aggressive, but there was a kind of charm that pets didn\'t have.

Unfortunately, he couldn\'t stay any longer, so he gently tapped the eagle\'s back as the eagle tugged his son for a while before soaring to the sky.

Kai held onto his fur and made sure he didn\'t fall off by adjusting his balance. No matter how intelligent they were, they had never once given someone a ride, so it was certainly not the best seat he would get.

However, the eagle didn\'t flap its wings so much in the air while Kai asked him to maintain a certain altitude, so he didn\'t get frozen or feel the lack of air due to the air pressure.

Understanding Kai\'s condition, the eagle fulfilled his request as they flew according to Kai\'s direction.

The wind kept pushing Kai\'s hair and prevented him from having a quiet talk with the eagle. It seemed flying like this wasn\'t that much of joy like those in fairytales.

Seeing that Kai was unable to do anything, the eagle tried to form a wind barrier to prevent anything from touching him.

When that happened, Kai was worried and asked the eagle. "(Are you sure you want to do this? Doesn\'t it use your power?)"

"(Don\'t worry. I\'ve gotten used to flying like this when teaching my son. I should be able to reach the destination or stop along the way since you say the distance is not that far.)"

"(Well, if you\'re too tired on the way, I can carry you on my back… Probably.)"

"(Hahaha, let\'s hope such a thing won\'t happen.)" The eagle let out a cry as if it was laughing at Kai\'s joke. He just couldn\'t imagine what kind of scene he would see if Kai was the one carrying him in the sky.

Nevertheless, the two started making conversations, talking about various things.

Kai was curious about the life of a Magical Beast, so he asked various things from survival to mating.

It turned out that the Magical Beasts still needed to obey the jungle law and clashed with each other to survive. The reason why humanity never saw their bones or remnants on the ground was due to them eating the corpses completely to fill their belly.

They were also territorial people that would fight anyone that came to their territory. The wolf and the eagle once had a fight before becoming a neighbor. It was a cute story in Kai\'s ears and he couldn\'t help but tease the eagle.

The eagle told him that they didn\'t need much food anyway due to their energy replenished by the Magic Power, but they certainly wouldn\'t say no to food.

At the same time, he learned that the Magical Beasts could also mate and produce offspring like a normal animal. The only difference was their power and the labor. Due to powerful Magic Power poured into the baby when they were in the womb, the mother couldn\'t give birth so often and produced many at once.

With the humans killing them to reclaim their land, their number gradually decreased. The eagle told him about his story, especially his son like a doting father.

He could feel the love and care in his story, changing his perception of eagles. They turned out to be loving creatures even though they were kind of prideful.

Kai also shared some of his stories about how he met his current family and his need to kill more magical beasts. The eagle was intrigued by his story and knew that the reason Kai wanted them to leave was to protect them, so he didn\'t need to kill them. No, Kai simply didn\'t want to kill them.

The eagle was thankful that Kai wasn\'t an aggressive king that would trample anyone in front of them. After all, he had once seen a king that destroyed anything in his way.

Kai asked about the identity of that king, but the eagle refused to answer because it was kind of taboo to reveal the king\'s identity as he and his race would be in danger. He also promised that he wouldn\'t tell anyone about his identity.

Understanding his situation, Kai patted his back and thanked him.

Their relationship gradually became better and the eagle finally reached the shore, crossing the sea easily without any sign of fatigue.

After another two hours, they finally saw a big island coming into their vision.

Since the sun was about to set, Kai decided to take a rest on this island before continuing the journey tomorrow.

He set up a tent and a campfire as he sat next to the eagle. Due to its large body, the eagle indeed made Kai look small. In the end, he adjusted his position and leaned on the eagle\'s body, showing a bit of intimacy as new friends.

While relaxing, Kai asked, "(I am still wondering what did you feel when I used my communication device?)"

"(Communication Device?)" The eagle tilted his head in confusion.

Kai took out his device and showed it to him.

"(Ah, that one. I was not sure myself, but there was something in my body that… felt like rejecting it. I don\'t know what it was, but it certainly made me uncomfortable.)"

Kai thought for a moment, trying to see the reason. He might be able to break down the concept to allow humans to use communication devices without fearing a magical beast would attack them.

However, he soon realized that the primitive one, like the radio, was also picked up by them.

After a series of thoughts, Kai asked him to feel his Sound Wave which didn\'t do anything to him. It confirmed that the reason why they were able to feel their communication device was either from pollution or radio waves.

Pollution was a broad concept after all. Sound Pollution, Air Pollution, Water Pollution and so on.

He might want to wait for Felice to come to the US Base, so she could work together with Ria to solve this problem. It would also boost her name in the country, which was good.

Unknowingly, Kai had been thinking about her more, especially her future. It was a kind of anticipation that he didn\'t mind having inside his heart. No wonder Ria Ross didn\'t mind doing anything for him.

Getting his answer, Kai thanked him again and asked, "(That\'s right. How do you feel about the journey? You still need to go back too, you know.)"

"(I don\'t have a problem.)" The eagle shook his head and told him that everything was under control. Instead, he asked, "(Are you going to return right after? I can bring you back to this place if you want.)"

"(That will be great, but I don\'t want to trouble you more than this.)"

"(Saving life is worth more than a few days. I\'m sure my son can understand that. I don\'t know if it\'s the same as human, but our top priority is to pay back someone that we owe by multiple times.)"

Kai suddenly turned sentimental as he looked at the night sky, lamenting. "(Humanity is supposed to be the same. But our intelligence and heart are often clouded by greed, lust, or anything that makes us unable to do it. That\'s why most of the time, you will find that humans are biting the hand of those who feed them.)"

Although Kai generalized the human, the eagle knew that everyone wasn\'t like that. Kai was the perfect example. He looked at him and gently poked his cheek with his beak, saying, "(Humanity may be selfish, but I know there are people like you that will restore one\'s faith in humanity.)"

Kai made a genuine smile. "(Thanks.)"

The eagle didn\'t say more and simply played with Kai. After a while, both of them fell asleep. Of course, they made sure no one would come to them by informing the other beasts about it.

The next day, they continued their journey to Sweden and flew to the sky for seven hours before arriving at the small island.

Unfortunately for him, Kai\'s supply was rather low since he used one bottle to heal the eagle and headed there without refilling it on the island.

They searched from the sky but found nothing that could replenish the water, so Kai decided not to drink and stopped for another day on this island, making sure that he and the eagle were not tired.

When the sun came out of the horizon and brightened the whole island up, the eagle and Kai continued their journey without a problem.

Kai used his device to track their location and made sure he stopped before anything from Stockholm could see any sign of them.

The eagle then descended to the sea as he rose and said, "(Thank you. We will meet again four days later at the same time. What do you think?)"

"(I understand. It should be enough time for me to ask other beasts to flee while I and the others leave the last.)" The eagle agreed as they had been talking about this for the past two days.

Kai then jumped off his back into the sea while waving his hand. The eagle quickly flew away so as to avoid exhausting Kai\'s energy by watching him.

Kai thanked him once again before starting to swim to the shore.

Meanwhile, on the shore, there was a middle-aged man standing behind a black-haired woman.

The middle-aged man asked politely. "Milady, I don\'t think it will be good for your health to stay here."

"It\'s fine. I\'ve asked him such a ridiculous request, so I will be waiting for him here. This is the least I can do to show my sincerity in this cooperation. I will be standing here for a whole day."
