Their minds were completely blown when they saw Kai and Tasha kissing. However, there was sothing different with this kiss as Tasha's back started glowing. On her back, a circle symbol akin to a magic circle appeared, and it was activated.
Magic power suddenly surged out of that symbol into the air before going inside Kai's body. All the people witnessing the scene halted as they could feel an overbearing amount of magic power. It was coming from Tasha and Kai.
The people from the Katsuragi family and Ikeda family were surprised by this amount of magic power, especially Ikeda Kenzo. As an S-rank magician, you needed both unique or powerful magic and a huge amount of magic power.
Surprisingly, the amount of magic power that was released to the atmosphere was at least twice what he had.
"!!!"
"Kill both of them." However, before he could react, Katsuragi Akagi imdiately ordered all his people.
Kudo Yoshihiro imdiately commanded his forces to intercept them. His wife also ca to him and t Kai.
"This magic power…" The ones who were shocked the most were Jas Carter and Ayaka Carter.
"All of you need to go now! We've secured the path for all of you and will buy ti for you… They've locked the airports, and it's not possible to get to the US base by water… I think you should go to the south and seek asylum," Kudo Yoshihiro suggested.
"But the situation isn't really friendly. You might get chained by the south's family if you seek asylum there. And my daughter might beco one of the hostages," Kudo Chiyo ca and explained.
"We can go to the US base. But we don't have enough fighters," Tasha said.
"What do you an?"
"I'm a forr D-rank magician even though I have two magic, space and lightning. My space magic is focused on sealing magic… no, I can't say it's 'focused' since sealing magic doesn't require a high amount of power. It's because my magic reserve is too low, and Kai has a huge magic reserve."
"!!!" Their parents imdiately realized what happened. When Kai was a baby, the hospital had checked his power and was surprised by the amount of magic power. However, they were disappointed when they knew Kai was a sound magician.
Even so, he was still classified as a B-rank magician with just that amount of magic power. And at a particular ti, not long after they t Tasha and adopted her, Kai's rank suddenly fell to D.
It turned out that he didn't have that much magic power inside him. They asked him about it but to no avail as Kai refused to answer. They didn't realize that all of it had been inside Tasha this whole ti. Jas Carter turned to Tasha. "You…"
"Yes, Father. Kai's magic power has been sealed inside this entire ti. I don't know if any of you realized it. Still, even though I can use teleportation, it's only short-distance teleportation. This is because when I sealed Kai's magic power inside, it only beca a supplier instead of my magic reserve.
"It's like I'm a glass while Kai is a bucket filled with water. I can only take in the amount that the glass can, but not the bucket, so with that short-distance teleportation, I've drained the water in the glass and have the bucket to refill it again," Tasha explained. "I'm sorry I've been hiding this from both of you. I'm not qualified to be your daughter."
"I'm the one who asked her to seal it." Kai suddenly rebuked her claim. "This magic power, as well as my hearing, is troubleso."
"I see." Jas Carter nodded and smiled. "Both of you are family, aren't you? It's normal for family mbers to help each other."
"But it still doesn't solve our situation," Kudo Yoshihiro reminded.
"No. As I said earlier, I'm used to sealing magic. If I can seal Kai's magic power inside my body, I can also do the opposite. In other words, I can seal my teleportation magic inside Kai. However, during this period, I'll just be a normal D-rank magician," Tasha explained.
"With my power, I can only teleport all of these people to around 1500 km away from here," Kai said while looking at his parents, Tasha, Sanae, and Becca. "And it's only in a certain direction."
"It won't be enough to teleport from this place all the way to the US base," Yoshihiro murmured while pondering sothing.
"Go to Chugoku Region first. That place is the closest to Korea. At the very least, you'll be able to leave this cursed place," Kudo Chiyo suggested.
Kai frowned. "Go to Korea then to Russia. After that, I'll go to Alaska before teleporting to the US base."
"That's what I ant." Kudo Chiyo nodded.
"Can you do it, Kai?"
"I can, but I need to teleport a few tis, so I might not be able to fight after this," Kai said.
"Then you don't need to bother with us." Jas Carter suddenly said. "Go bring other fighters with you to protect you."
"No!" Kai instantly rejected that idea. It was the dumbest solution at the mont.
"You can take Becca with you. Although she's a little clumsy, she is one of our elites. After my daughter wakes up, just beat the crap out of her if she cries over us and forces her to fight," Kudo Yoshihiro said.
"You're not going?" Kai asked.
"No. They killed our father. We need to take revenge for this. My wife and I already decided this will be where we fall." Yoshihiro shook his head before looking at Kai with a serious expression. "That's why, boy, make sure to take care of Ayaka well. I don't care if she's rich or poor, as long as she leads a happy life, I have no complaints."
"Why don't you bring both of them too, Kai?" Jas Carter asked.
Kai shook his head. "I can't. If I bring both of them, I'll only be able to teleport all of us for around 900 km. It won't be enough to cross from Russia to Alaska… wait, we might be able… we just need to get as close as possible."
"I can bring both of you to the US base." Kai looked at Kudo Yoshihiro and Kudo Chiyo.
"I can teleport from Chugaku to South Korea then go all the way to Russia. After that, I can teleport to the small island between Russia and Alaska before teleporting all the way to Alaska. It should be enough." Kai looked at them with a serious expression.
"This…" He pondered for a mont, but he suddenly heard an explosion from the side.
Boom!
"Gah!"
It was Ikeda Kenzo. He was coming to take their lives.
"Tch!" He clicked his teeth, noticing their ti was short. He roared. "All from Kudo Group. We are going to make a strategic retreat. Those of you who are alive will go to the K1 location and wait for further instruction."
They were confused by this order. Nonetheless, they carried it out imdiately. Kudo Yoshihiro decided to take Kai's suggestion.
If he and his wife ca along with them and retreated to the US base, they could rise again from there and avenge their father. The only thing he needed to do was take care of his subordinates.
He wanted all of them to go into hiding before going to the US base and building Kudo Group again from scratch. With capital and research, they should be able to grow pretty quickly.
Kai and the others imdiately followed the crowd. It was at this ti that five people ca to them.
"Sir, what are we going to do? Aren't we going to avenge Master?" One of them asked.
"Change of plans. Because of the situation, I will rebuild the Kudo Group in the US base. After we grow into a stronger existence, we will then attack the Katsuragi family and Ikeda family," he said.
"But… aren't the airports sealed by them?"
"I have a plan for that. I'll pave the way for all of you there, so when you arrive at the US base, you will have a shelter there. That's why all of you will go to our secret base and hide there for a while.
"With the war against the south going on, there should be a few gaps to exploit. At that ti, all of you will go to the US base. No need to care about the money, Kudo Group has enough money to migrate all of you," Yoshihiro said.
"But, Sir, I think soone needs to hold the rear," he said as he looked at their back. They looked at their comrades butchered by the people from the two families. "That's why five of us will get a hundred people and reinforce the rear and hold them back. Within that ti, please escape from this place."
"What?! You-!"
"All of us already agreed to this. Anyway, we're glad that the young lady is all right." All of them nodded and imdiately stopped to hold back the rear.
"Those fools!" Kudo Yoshihiro gritted his teeth. Five of them were his father's disciples. He wanted to stop them, but if he did that after the teaching of his father, it would only an that he underestimated their resolve.
"All of you won't be able to pursue them!"
He had thought to go into hiding for a while before coming up again. But the Katsuragi family wouldn't let them do that, considering their greed. All in all, the only path for them was to decline. And at that ti, the Katsuragi family would surely search for their remnants and kill them.
This was why he decided to rebuild Kudo Group in the US base. He steeled himself and went toward the south. So of them were running through the roofs, and so others were flying. Nonetheless, most of the pursuers were stopped by those hundred n. Kudo Yoshihiro swore, he would treat all their families well.
