Seeing the two people come to the battlefield, Kai charged toward Kerza and struck him.

The latter blocked his sword with his tentacle and blew him away, but Kai purposely leaped to the side, using the force to blow him in a certain direction.

​​

At the same time, Roselyn and Sofia went ahead to stop him while Kai landed on top of the roof, regrouping with Arnaud.

He quickly used his Sound Insulation Room to cover everything that they talked about.

"Kai Carter?"

"This is an emergency. I don't have the power to contain this one and I'm planning to run away. However, since you're here, I see some hope in defeating him."

Knowing this wasn't time to comment on Kai's plan or intention, he quickly nodded with a serious expression. "Alright. You must have a plan. I will follow your command."

"I want you to tell Marsha three things. First, the monster is far stronger than me and it's impossible for me alone to defeat it. Second, I want her to invite one or two media to come here with their helicopter, broadcasting this fight for several minutes. Third, I can't say anything about a time limit, but if their lives are in danger, they will retreat immediately. I want everything to be solved within thirty minutes. This is the furthest limit we can go in order to stop him."

"Understood." Arnaud nodded with a grave expression and quickly retreated a bit to call Marsha.

Meanwhile, Kai landed on the ground while saying, "I have a plan. If you trust me, adjust your Magic Power and go all out. Everything will be resolved within thirty minutes."

Kerza frowned and released his power a bit more while releasing his killing intent. "What did you say, brat?"

"I am saying that you're going to die in thirty minutes. Do you think I don't know that you may possess the strength to kill us, but your overwhelming power is not enough to kill us within that time…" Kai smirked and raised his sword. "I am telling you, come at me, you f*cking slimy squid."

"You!" Kerza gritted his teeth and charged forward.

While Kai and the others were buying time for Arnaud, the latter already called Marsha.

"Yes. Do you need anything?"

"I don't have time. Kai Carter wants me to tell you three things." Arnaud didn't waste a single second and explained everything to Marsha.

In that instant, Marsha quickly hung up and called one media under her command, sending them to the battlefield.

Luckily, it was still 10 PM, it wasn't her time to sleep yet.

Marsha quickly put on a coat while shouting, "We're going back to the Union Headquarters!"

The acting prime minister, who happened to be her butler, quickly came out of his room with a flustered expression.

"What happened?"

"I will tell you on the way."

"Understood. I will get the car ready."

After two minutes, Marsha had set off from her mansion, preparing to get the plane to France right away.

On the way, Marsha told everything to the current prime minister, so he could prepare himself for a press conference later.

"Milady, I am afraid this situation is worse than we expected… If Kai Carter can't even pull it off, do you think someone can do it?"

"I am not sure myself, but Arnaud told me there is a chance. Everything will be resolved within thirty minutes. I want you to prepare for a press conference right after regarding this matter." Marsha shook her head while trying to figure out Kai's plan.

What they feared was the fact that Kai, the strongest human that might have the power to destroy a base, was actually useless against this opponent. In other words, his opponent might have the power to destroy the base after killing Kai Carter and the other Rank S Magicians.

"Hmm… It seems Kai Carter has thought it through." Marsha mumbled as she had started connecting the dots in Kai's message.

"What is it, Milady?"

"From the first point, he already stated that the monster is stronger than him. This means if humanity doesn't unite, a monster like this will make us extinct. After all, there are a few more people like this coming from the sea. And yes, we may need to officially tell the public about this threat."

"I see. He once told us about the great war… Doesn't this mean it will come soon?"

"Yes. With him asking for the world to unite, this war he talked about may be bigger than he expected. After all, even he pondered for a long time when I asked about our role in the battle. He had some level of confidence in dealing with them…"

"In that case, we may need to start working in the military to prepare for the war. Oliver will be exterminated after this incident, so there won't be anyone that will obstruct us. If we work together with Kai Carter, it should be able to work out. The problem will be United Asia. One of the biggest powers in United Asia is the Katsuragi Family, who has some conflicts with him."

"Don't talk about United Asia right now. It's not important. Everything will be useless if we lose this battle." Marsha shook her head.

"Then, what is the second one?"

Marsha fell silent for a moment before continuing, "The second one is obviously to get the world's attention. I'm sure he is going to do something big in front of the world and tell them we need to join hands. Though, I am not sure about the several minutes thing. I'm sure he has some plans."

"Agreed. That's why I'm going to make a statement about the collaboration, right? We can use that to extend the contract for war cooperation. Of course, the US Base President will surely respond to this since he knows Kai Carter has never done something meaningless."

"Yes. His side also has Ria Ross, so we are going to get busy for months if not years." Marsha nodded with a serious expression. "As for the third… He can't tell anything about the time limit, but he wants the media to retreat…"

"Do you know anything about this? I can't see a single clue of what he thinks."

"I am not sure myself. Seeing he has confidence that everything will be solved within thirty minutes, I will just believe in him. We can talk about it later anyway." Marsha shrugged. "I have sent the media on their way, so they will arrive within five to ten minutes. This is getting complicated very soon… I wonder how Oliver has such a creature backing him up."

…

While they were talking about the countermeasure, Kai had been fighting against Kerza for several minutes. Within that time, Kai suffered some injuries. Blood was dripping out of his wounds and his movement became a bit slower. If not for his Sound Blast, he couldn't catch up with Kerza's speed.

The same applied to Arnaud, Jules, Sofia, and Roselyn. All of them fought against Kerza and managed to fight at a standstill, but their condition gradually turned worse.

Kerza also used a lot of his stamina, but he should have enough stamina to kill them before getting away to recover.

"This is useless. You won't be able to defeat me. Thirty minutes, is it? I'm going to prove that I can kill all of you within that time." Kerza snorted.

Kai smiled and ignored his word, raising his vision and finding a helicopter coming closer. The helicopter brought a giant flashlight as it illuminated Kerza, the main culprit.

Seeing the reinforcement he hoped for had come, Kai shouted. "No need to hold back. Use all your power right now. Don't care about our surroundings."
