The Magician of Sound

Chapter 518 - Switching Sides



"Still, I can\'t really do anything currently." Kenzo shook his head in disappointment.

"What do you mean?"

​​

"There are still some of my people mingling with their force, so if I\'m going to betray them, they will be the first ones to be eliminated."

Kai furrowed his eyebrows and nodded. "I see. In that case, I will give you an alternative. Do you know their locations?"

"I can check."

"I will attack them tomorrow night, so I want you to check their location and guide them to a certain area. I will teleport them far away or send them to this house with Teleportation Magic."

"Teleportation Magic? But Tasha Carter is in…" Kenzo suddenly realized why Evan Young announced that he would go to the EU Base three days later to heal him. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "I can do that. It\'s a one-way ticket for me, so I need to make sure whether you can do it or not."

"Without having so much information, I have eighty percent assurance. If you give me accurate information, I can guarantee it to you," said Kai with a serious expression.

Seeing the confidence in his eyes made Kenzo start doubting him. After all, the Katsuragi Family had so many people in their ranks. It wouldn\'t be wise to challenge them without any information.

However, that doubt soon made sense when he remembered that a single slash from Kai could destroy so many houses in that area. He then asked, "How many?"

"You mean my team?" Kai paused for a moment. "I have five at the moment, but all of them are strong. We should be able to eliminate three hundred people at once, but since what I want is the elimination of the core member of the Katsuragi Family, I guess we will only target a few people.

"It\'s easier to do with Teleportation Magic. I believe it won\'t take too long. And I can minimize everything before leaving this place. This is something you can accept, right?" Kai asked.

"Yes. That way, the people should be able to escape from their grasp. After that, I can help you by spreading the information, allowing the change to be made step by step." Kenzo sighed. "There are two problems though."

"The government and the South Family, huh." Kai looked down, knowing this kind of effect from Marsha. She had told him how to handle this entire situation and turned it into his advantage, so Kai explained, "I can solve it for you."

"If the government is involved, I\'m sure they\'re trying to get anything to strengthen themselves from the Katsuragi Family. If you can stop them, the entire system will remain. As for the South Family, I can create a channel for you to negotiate, but everything will depend on you."

Kai nodded. "Well, I can understand their stance, so I will try to negotiate with them. If it\'s not possible, I will simply wreak havoc until they submit."

"Do you think you can?"

"Do you think they can stop me?" Kai sneered. "Anyway, don\'t think too much. I will handle this for you."

"I understand. I shall be helping you to stop the Katsuragi Family."

"It\'s so easy for you to change sides, eh?"

"You are going to ask your teacher to treat me, so how can I reject it? It\'s way better than the treatment from the Katsuragi Family. I am too tired mentally and physically. I just want to give way for the new generations to take care of this base." Kenzo shook his head.

"At least, the negotiation is easy, so I won\'t complain." Kai then asked, "You should start asking their locations and give me some information."

"Sure thing." To show Kai that he had switched sides, Kenzo called his secretary to gather the information of their own people before presenting a map to him.

"Most of the core members are in Hokkaido, so you may need to go there. I don\'t have the map, but I can draw you a rough sketch." Kenzo thought for a moment. "As for the front line… I think it\'s best to destroy a single base there to create confusion not only for the Katsuragi Family but the other families under them. With the commotion from the main command and the front line, they will stop their advances for quite a while.

"At that time, they will realize they can\'t go on anymore as the Katsuragi Family will begin its civil war, trying to get the head position. If you can force the South Family to move to stop the war, then everything will end."

Hearing his explanation, Kai nodded in agreement. "I can do it for the most part, but negotiation is not my forte, so I won\'t give you any promise. Anyway, give me the list of their core members."

"I will write it down for you later. And there may be one more person you need to eliminate."

"Who?"

"Katsuragi Takaki."

"…" Kai remembered a certain student. It was the person who fancied Ayaka and tried to kill him in the process of the reform. Hence, he should end it properly. "I understand."

"I will compile all the information for you. And since you have your reunion downstairs, I suppose I can give you the information tomorrow afternoon, right?"

"Yes. Either way, whether you betray me or not, my chance won\'t fall." Kai smiled with confidence as if he had another trump card if this one failed.

This would surely make Ikeda Kenzo think twice before betraying him.

"Don\'t worry. If this situation can be solved quickly, I am prepared to lay down my life." Kenzo shrugged. "Besides, it\'s a partnership… I am not his loyal dog."

"Well, that\'s your problem."

Kenzo nodded with a serious expression before pointing to two places on the map. The first one was located in Hokkaido, so it was obvious it was the Katsuragi Family headquarters. As for the other one, Kai assumed it was the frontline base.

"These two are your targets. May I know the time limit of your plan?"

"I will settle everything before dawn. After that, I will talk with the South Family and the Government about this… So, I guess two days is the time limit. I will then return to the EU Base."

"I understand." Kenzo thought for a moment and asked, "One last question. Is there any reinforcement?"

"Nope." Kai shook his head and asked while rising from the floor. "Anyway, that\'s all. Do you have any more questions?"

"None. I will ask you if I find any."

"Alright." Kai nodded and started walking, "I will be visiting my grandfather-in-law then."

"Yes. Please take care. I will also send some food and drink for all of you tomorrow."

"Thanks for taking care of my grandfather-in-law."

"It\'s nothing. I simply don\'t wish to cover my hand with unnecessary blood." Kenzo shook his head.

"And that\'s what saves your life today." After saying those words, Kai stepped outside, heading straight to the basement.

He saw Kudo Tarou sitting together with all the girls since they had many things to talk about.

His expression had mellowed a bit after chatting with Ayaka for a while. Tarou raised his head when he sensed his presence and couldn\'t help but make the gentlest smile he could offer. "You have worked hard."
