The Magician of Sound

Chapter 529 - Arrival



As soon as he returned to the US Base, Kai saw many people coming to greet him. Surprisingly, because of how grand the reception was, Devain and Leah managed to find Kai's position and quickly sneak inside the plane with the Teleportation Magic.

"My King." Devain and Leah greeted him with a bow.

"!!!" Sofia was taken aback by their appearance as she never imagined there were people coming for Kai.

"So, you two have come or probably you have stayed here for a few days?" Kai asked.

"We have been here several times to experience this world so as to assimilate ourselves better when needed, especially for information gathering," Leah answered.

"I see." Kai nodded. "I can understand that."

"May we know how we should proceed?"

Kai thought for a moment and said, "How about staying in my house?"

"Wh-what?" Leah and Devain opened their mouths in surprise. Leah hurriedly asked for the confirmation. "Are you sure, My King? I am afraid this will bring a great inconvenience for you and your family. We are not qualified to do this…"

"And also, stop calling me with that title. Just call me by my name like how others call me."

"W-we can't." Leah shook her head in panic.

"Do you think I can explain your identities to them? Besides, if you are with my parents, I can be more assured of their safety and proceed more boldly against our enemies. And with you training together in my house, my parents will be happy because it will feel like a party. That's why I am suggesting this." Kai sighed. "Albeit, I can't really force you if you don't want to…"

Leah and Devain shuddered as they exchanged looks. They obviously didn't want to reject it, but they didn't know whether it was alright for them or not.

"If you have some rules regarding it, I can order you if you want." Kai squinted his eyes as if telling them he was serious about it.

"No, no. There is no rule about it, but are you sure it's alright?" Leah asked timidly.

"Yep. Now that you have agreed, start calling me Kai from now on." Kai nodded. "Also, go wait for me outside. As much as I want to introduce you to my parents, I can't show you to too many people to avoid getting found out by our enemies."

"It's okay. We can understand… Ka…i…" Leah looked down, feeling embarrassed.

"That's good enough for now." Kai nodded and rose, heading out of the plane with Sofia. "See you later."

When Kai walked outside the plane, he could see many people coming to get him.

Although the information wasn't spread, Kai could still see more than ten people lining up. The first was none other than President Brent.

"I'm glad that you are back here." President Brent smiled.

"It's my pleasure." Kai smiled.

"Well, we can talk more later, so I won't hold you any longer from your reunion." Brent nodded and took a step back before glancing over to the side.

Kai also turned around and smiled at the two people he wanted to see the most. He quickly walked to them as his mother hugged him tightly.

"You're back. Six months feels like six years."

"Ahaha, I'm sorry for making you lonely." Kai's expression became gentle. "I hope Michelle and Ayaka didn't trouble you."

"Of course not. We are happy with the fact they accompany us."

After being released by his mother, Kai hugged his father. "I'm back, Father."

"I'm just glad that you returned safely." James hugged back for a few seconds before patting his shoulders.

Kai took a step back and saw the rest of the people.

To his expectation, Ayaka brought her whole family with her because they obviously wanted to say their gratitude despite having done it multiple times through calls.

Kai felt happy that their family had reunited again.

However, that happiness turned into a surprise when Nathan grabbed Tarou's shoulder like a buddy. The two seemed to have met and made a quite good relationship as a fellow grandfather-in-law.

It might be due to Michelle's younger brother that Nathan had never stressed too much about Kai's relationship anymore. Either way, it was good for him that everyone could get along.

The girls, including Sofia, gathered while Kai reunited with his Teacher.

"I'm back, Teacher."

"I know. I believe you also have many things to do after this, but you should take a rest for two or three days." Ria nodded.

"Yeah. I'm planning to spend my time with my family. Of course, it's better if you join us, Teacher." Kai smiled.

"We will see." Ria chuckled.

Kai then continued to meet a few more people before going back together with his parents and the girls.

Suddenly, Leah and Devain appeared before them with a slightly nervous face.

Kai quickly stepped forward and introduced them. "Because they might get a bit implicated if they came out of the plane together with me, they waited for me here. These two are my friends from the EU Base. We're like brother and sister there and they took care of me when I was there.

"As much as I want to talk about them, I believe it's better to get inside first to avoid people's attention." Kai opened the door.

Since Devain didn't find anyone in the driver's seat, he thought one of them would drive the car, so he quickly asked, "May I drive the car? I can use the GPS to drive since I don't want to ruin everyone's reunion."

"Look. He just proved my point." Kai smiled and winked.

"That…" His father obviously wanted to drive them back, but Kai had grabbed his hand and pulled them inside.

Since Kai was a bit forceful, they decided to take the offer and entered the car together.

After everyone came in, Devain began to drive away.

Leah then introduced herself. "It's an honor to meet you, Sir and Madam. My name is Leah Ishtar and the one coming with me is Devain Ishtar. Kai has been taking care of us since the beginning."

"Ah, such a polite one." His mother smiled. "It's my pleasure to know that my son has companions during his stay in the EU Base."

"Because of a few things, I want the two of them to stay in our house. Do you think it's possible, Mom?" Kai asked.

"Of course, it's possible. We have a few spare rooms anyway." She chuckled and agreed without hesitation. "I won't need to feel lonely anymore since all of you are here."

"That's good." Kai nodded while noticing the fact that Leah tried to work with her words to avoid saying Kai's name because she still felt awkward about it.

"So, what is your relationship with my son?" A star appeared in her eyes as she had a great expectation since it wasn't every day's occurrence that her son brought someone home.

Leah quickly looked down, feeling embarrassed. She had a hard time with this answer because of what happened back in Emulda Kalan.

She knew that Kai had a strict rule when it came to the relationship, but she also vowed to serve Kai, including night activities.

Lying would be the best option, but she truly wanted Kai to answer this because of the importance of this question.

Albeit, his mother didn't wait for anyone's answer because Leah's action alone already struck her heart. "I see, I see. I have understood everything."
