The Magician Of Sound Chapter 440
Advertisement
The next day, Kai came out of the room with Sofia before turning his head to the left, finding Roselyn coming out of her room too. Her complexion seemed to be not that healthy, and Kai knew why she would become like that.
Kai didn't want to be that demanding and told his girlfriend to do this and not to do that, so he agreed to yesterday's request. However, he was also not someone who would allow his girlfriend to do anything too far, so he limited that thing only once.
After all, Roselyn was just a poor soul that needed to be there because of her own mission, not her will.
"Anyway, you should rest if you are not doing well…" said Kai while wondering what he needed to do for today.
"No. It's fine." Roselyn shook her head and explained. "Anyway, the agreement will be finalized within three days according to my superior. What do you want to see today? I will guide you to the room and explain everything to the teacher with the formal notice from the Union."
Kai thought for a moment and said, "I wish to see around the exoskeleton then. It's not like I'm interested in the two other courses… I will probably watch them later."
"I understand." Roselyn nodded with a serious expression as she led Kai to his destination. Sofia remained silent the whole time since she couldn't do anything other than accompanying him during this period.
Even her grandfather had been notified by the Union about their bottom line. The only time she could do anything freely would be when they ventured to the place Kai wanted to see.
Either way, their first stop would be the room where the exoskeleton was produced. There were many teachers and students inside as they worked on many projects side by side.
In fact, this room looked like a factory instead of a classroom.
The width alone reached one hundred meters, allowing many people to work on the project while getting supervised by the teachers.
"The teachers here are professors that used to work on the exoskeleton program. Instead of doing it half-heartedly, the Union sent all the professors here to take in a fresh new idea from the student while teaching them how to build it from a young age. This may require some advanced engineering, but the technology allows people to become a student in this area as long as you have a bit of talent."

Kai nodded in agreement, knowing that the students here seemed to be serious about their own jobs.
Roselyn decided to go to one teacher as the head supervisor and showed him the notice. After calling Kai and talking about the few requirements he needed to obey in this place, he finally gave him permission with Roselyn as his guide.
The trio then began venturing the entire room. They saw many types of exoskeletons, from an extended blade that would come out of the exoskeleton's wrist to something that looked like a robot.
The variations truly surprised Kai as he observed each of them carefully while asking some people that would be more than happy to answer his inquiries. Of course, he would leave as soon as someone told him to leave them because he was a nuisance.
Suddenly, one person piqued his interest. The exoskeleton actually built a concentrated shoe and glove.
"This…" Kai narrowed his eyes and raised his vision, finding a woman with red hair. Her hair wasn't that long, only slightly reaching a bit lower than her shoulders. However, she tied it neatly to avoid being a nuisance to her work.
She wore the same uniform as them but coupled with some fluid that covered it to avoid dirt and such from the equipment.
Noticing Kai's presence, she stopped what she was doing and looked at Kai in confusion before finding Sofia and Roselyn behind him. At that moment, it just clicked and she realized who they were.
She quickly tidied her appearance and offered a smile. "Welcome."
"Hello. I am Kai Carter." Kai made a gentle smile. "I am sorry if I disturb you."
"It's fine. I'm not in the important part." She shook her head before continuing. "Besides, I'm honored to see the legendary Kai Carter in front of me."
"Ahaha, I'm just a normal student like you." Kai waved his hand as if telling her it wasn't a big deal. "Can I ask you a few things about what you make here?"
"Sure. Please ask me anything. I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability."
"From what I can see here, why are you doing everything separately? Are you trying to build full body armor?"
"Not really?" She tilted her head in confusion. "I love watching a battle between Martial Artists, you see. So, I grow up and want to become one. To do that, I need to build my own equipment."

She then touched her equipment one by one while explaining. "This glove was inspired by the Boxing Glove. This boot was inspired by Taekwondo, thinking that if a normal one didn't allow me to one-hit kill the magical beast, I would have used this shoe to fulfill it. Of course, I know that I'm insulting the Martial Arts, but I still think this is my answer to my dream."
"I see. Do you think I can order one from you?"
"Really?" She was more than happy to take this order since she was also short in cash to do this research.
"!!!" Meanwhile, Roselyn and Sofia widened their eyes, never expecting that Kai would be interested in this. Normally, the students would be more excited about sharp weapons, so they thought Kai would get a blade or something.
However, Kai's real aim wasn't a sharp blade and the like. It was the exoskeleton for his girlfriend. This one seemed to suit Ayaka so much if he could add more weight into the exoskeleton, so he didn't hesitate to use his money to buy this.
"I can do it, but I'm afraid I don't have enough funds to make you one. And do you have any preference?"
"Well, I want something heavy? The heaviest thing you can get for both shoes and gloves. Don't worry. I can cover the expense. If I am satisfied, I will pay even more."
"That will be great." She nodded with a smile. "As for something heavier… This is a bit challenging because we can't really dump all the materials into it as it won't be flexible like how the exoskeleton should be."
"What is the maximum weight you can put on?"
"I am not sure, but I think I can give you two hundred kilogram shoes… The gloves will be two-thirds of the shoes' weight."
Kai thought for a moment and nodded. "Yep, I don't mind."
"I understand. Do you have a time limit for me?"
"I am not that strict, but since my stay here is limited to three months, I hope you can do it within that time."
She contemplated for a minute before nodding her head. "I can as long as I have enough funds. There is a weight test as well, so I'm afraid that I will fail a few times. Normally, I can re-use the materials, but it will take more time to do something like that."
"Yeah. I don't mind." Kai nodded, thinking that he already had too much money in his account after so many achievements anyway, so he didn't mind spending some.
"By the way, Kai… Carter." Roselyn stopped him and said, "There is a document you need to sign if you want to bring this to the US Base, especially the non-disclosure agreement, even if the US Base wants to take it by force."
"Yeah, I know about it. Either way, they will be satisfied with just the news about the possibility of the exoskeleton going public." Kai shrugged. "And I have enough confidence to stop them even with force."
Roselyn closed her eyes, knowing that Kai truly had that power. She thought for a moment and nodded. "I understand. I will ask for the document from my superior and give it to you tomorrow."
"Sure." Kai nodded and turned around, asking the female again. "Anyway, how much does it cost? Do I need to send the deposit first? I don't understand how it works here."
"Ah, may I get your contact? I can send everything there along with the proposal and design." The woman suddenly remembered and continued. "By the way, I'm Leslie Leroux."
Kai nodded and sent her his contact address for business purposes. "You can contact me here."
"I understand. I will finish it as soon as possible." Leslie nodded with a smile. She seemed to be fired up for this project. Not only could she become Kai's acquaintance, but she would also receive more funding from him as long as she satisfied his requirement. This was a win-win situation for her and there was no way she would let it go.
After reaching an agreement, Kai then shook her hand before taking another look at the rest of the people.
Unfortunately, none of them managed to pique his interest, so he just left the room, happy with his finding.
Roselyn then guided him to a few other places that revolved around exoskeletons, but he only nodded his head most of the time.
They only used that day to go around the school, introducing their various facilities, especially the training space right in front of the school gate.
Roselyn even asked whether Kai had any interest in having a spar with her, albeit she took that back after getting the warning from Sofia.
