"Space-jamming equipment!" Tasha's words reverberated in their ears. They knew about space-jamming equipment. It might not be powerful enough to stop a full-fledged space magician, but it was enough to stop Tasha, who had yet to mature in space magic.
They gritted their teeth as Kai said, "Let's just go the normal way. I'll lead all of you with my ears."
"All right, I'll leave it to you." Tasha nodded.
Kai then led them outside the house. But before they could take another step further, they were stopped by an old man. It was Ikeda Kenzo.
"Haiz, what are you guys doing? I told you to leave this base as soon as possible."
"Don't say anything impossible. We've already done our best to look for money… we just don't have enough time." Kai frowned.
"Well, it was also my miscalculation. I never expected that this thing would escalate so fast to the point that we need to get rid of both of you today," Kenzo said.
"Do you think we're going down just like that?" Tasha coldly looked at him.
"Well, you two will still die in the end. Although it's a shame that a few of the talented younger generation will die, I can't do anything about that. I also can't spare you again since the Katsuragi family and my Ikeda Family will arrive in a minute." He shook his head.
"You're searching for medicine, right? Why don't we team up? I'm sure with two S-rank magicians, we can beat the Katsuragi family and get the medicine from them." Kai threw a bait.
He shook his head. "They're really clever. There is no complete medicine for me."
"You mean…"
"Yeah. It's still in progress. They've given me a few lesser medicines. Still, they're slowing the process until we finish dealing with the south's family. Until that time, I won't get the medicine." Ikeda Kenzo sighed.
"Since it's already at this point, do you mind telling me about their plan?" Kai tried to buy time to think of a plan to escape.
"Their plan is simple. This nation is originally Japan, not United Asia. They just want to change it back to the way it was. However, with so many nationalities in this place and with some of them managing to gain power, such as the south's family, the only solution for that is a great purge," Ikeda Kenzo explained. He didn't mind giving this much information, since they were going to die and the people had yet to come.
Kai looked at his father and asked, "Father, can you carry her?"
"Sure. Although I can't fight, carrying her is an easy matter for me." He nodded.
Kai then took out his swords. Tasha, Ayaka, and Becca also did the same.
"You four look like you can fight, but all of you are still too young." He suddenly disappeared. This was the technique he used to repel Kai and Tasha. Back then, he pointed his sword at his neck, but this time, he was going for his parents. "Sh*t."
It was at this time that Becca suddenly swung her spear toward James Carter, Kai's father. However, who she was truly targeting was Kenzo, who suddenly appeared in that position. She blew him away and shouted, "Run!"
The others started running, but Ikeda Kenzo already appeared in front of them again. "I see. So you are Kudo Taro's most loved disciple. As expected of that man, even when he was breathing his last, he didn't care as he believed in his family and disciples, especially you. If you've discovered your full potential, even I might die if I'm not careful."
"You… you're the one who killed Master!" Becca was filled with anger. Ayaka was also the same.
"We have no time, we need to run now!" Kai shouted.
Sadly, they heard a hoarse voice from a middle-aged man. "Where do you think you're going?"
All of them turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man had silver hair. He wore a white suit that complemented his silver hair. His silver eyes looked at them with killing intent.
Not only him, but a large number of others started popping out. They were truly surrounded at this point.
"You… You're Katsuragi family's current head, Katsuragi Akagi," Kudo Ayaka said while looking at the middle-aged man.
"Shut up, you sl*t. Because of you, my son is ruined. He almost died because of you!" He roared. Of course, the people who knew the incident would think, 'You're the one who almost killed him.'
"I will make all the men in this nation rape you and make you the national b*tch so my son will be healed of his obsession with you," he declared.
"You bastard!" Becca roared and charged at him. Her heart was already filled with anger when she knew Kenzo killed her master, and this insult immediately made her insane.
Ikeda Kenzo simply appeared in front of her as he swung his sword. Becca also swung her spear while roaring, "Die!", but she had lost her cool, and Ikeda Kenzo easily picked up a flaw and blew her to the ground.
Boom!
"Sister Becca." Ayaka immediately helped her up.
"Hmph. You can't go anywhere now." The middle-aged man snorted.
At this point, Kai suddenly came to the front while making a magic circle. Suddenly, a thin layer of barrier appeared and trapped Tasha and the others inside.
"Sister, take care of our parents," Kai said with a smile before leaving the barrier. That smile was full of resolve… the resolve to die.
All of them were taken aback by that. Only Tasha knew what he wanted to do and Ayaka, who barely knew about it. As for Becca and their parents, they didn't have a single clue.
Without giving them a chance to react. Kai clasped his hands and made a big magic circle in front of him. "If I need to die, then at least, I'll bring all of you along with me."
"Ultrasonic Assa-!"
"Kai!" Tasha and Ayaka finally reacted as they were going to leave the barrier to prevent him from doing that. They knew Kai wanted to do his suicidal move.
However, before Kai could finish the magic circle and before Tasha and Ayaka could stop him, they heard a shout, "Attack!"
Suddenly, a barrage of magic attacks appeared from the sky and rained down on them.
"!!!"
"Enemy attack."
All of them were startled by this. They never thought that they would be ambushed like this. Kai also released his barrier.
When two figures suddenly came out, Ayaka immediately shouted, "Father, Mother."
The two of them were also followed by a thousand people. All of them started engaging the joint forces of the Katsuragi Family and Ikeda family.
Because of this event, they had rushed here, so they didn't bring the south's family with them. That was why when they appeared, Kudo Yoshihiro suddenly appeared in front of Ayaka and punched her abdomen.
"Fa-fath...er…" Ayaka never expected this as she fell unconscious before falling into Becca's embrace.
Yoshihiro then looked at Kai, "Boy, leave this place and take care of my daughter. She might be a bit spoiled, but she learns fast, so I'm sure she'll mature very quickly."
After that, he looked at Kai's father, James Carter. "I'm sure that we, as fathers, want the best for our children. That's why, this is a request not as Kudo Group's head, but as Kudo Ayaka's father. Please take care of her like your own daughter. I'll leave them to you."
"That's right." He then turned to Tasha. "You can teleport, right? Immediately teleport outside this nation. I've been informed that all the airports for base immigration have been blocked by them. If possible, teleport to the military base in Korea… no, I think they've also blocked the military base. Argh… Just teleport to the US base directly!"
"Do you think I can?!" Tasha rebuked.
"?!"
"This is how prepared they are." Yoshihiro gritted his teeth. He just got information telling him that all the forces he stationed in the airports had been intercepted. He didn't have any information about the bases outside United Asia. However, he knew that the Katsuragi family and Ikeda family wouldn't let these kids leave.
Kai looked at his sister and said, "Sister, I think we need to use 'that.' No, it might be the only way."
Tasha realized what his plan was. She immediately protested, "That's too reckless!"
Boom!
They suddenly heard a loud explosion. Immediately after, Yoshihiro got a message. "The space-jamming equipment has been destroyed."
"!!!" Kai looked at his sister, "If we can't use the planes, then we'll teleport. I'm the only one who can do that!"
Tasha was contemplating about this. She knew what kind of burden he would have to bear if he were to use 'that.' She didn't want him to use it, but she couldn't think of another way to escape. Even though she could use teleportation magic, she could only teleport a few kilometers from her current position. This was because it wasn't her specialty. Just like Kai's sound magic, which was different from others, Tasha's space magic was also different, and teleportation was not her forte.
"Sister, we need it right now!" Kai pressed the matter.
She looked at Kai while gritting her teeth. She shouted, "Fine!"
He looked at her with a small smile. Both of them got closer. The others were confused about what they meant by 'that', so they looked at them while frowning. They didn't have much time.
However, what they saw completely shocked them.
