Chapter 113- Suspicious Movements
Kai remained silent for a while as he looked at Kaya as if he was trying to determine what she was trying to say. However, that didn't seem to bring any results as he slowly shifted his eyes to look at Eva.
"As much as I hate to say it, I do agree with her, Kai. You are underestimating how amazing you are. It's way beyond a miracle that you exist in our lives." She said with a small blush on her face.
The two girls were extremely grateful to have Kai in their lives. He was their salvation from a world that they found cruel and irredeemable. One of them had given up on finding a family or a home and the other had grown fed up from people and how fake they were.
Both hated people, both found nothing worth living for and they simply passed their days doing what they needed to do. That all changed when they met Kai. Ironically enough, Kai never intended to even get to know them, he simply was another person who had to do what he had to do.
In a sense, the trio had similar lives, the only difference Kai had is that he had the desire to spend the last few years of his life the way he wanted to. He wanted freedom, something that Eva and Kaya never tried to seek.
That simple difference was what completely changed everything.
"Believe what you want to believe…" Kai said before he turned around and walked inside the cockpit to control the boat.
"Sigh… I guess we angered him." Eva said as she looked at Kaya.
"No, he isn't angry. He seemed confused rather than angry."
"Why is that?"
"I don't know. But, he won't have such a belief unless it's something he experienced himself."
"Something he experienced himself, huh…" Eva murmured as she looked at Kai through the window.
Nobody knew what she was thinking of. Meanwhile, the boat continued to sail back to land.

Eventually, the group reached Moonveil and got Kaya checked in a hospital. Luckily, she didn't sustain any permanent damage. Kai's healing abilities were simply mind-blowing. Restoring someone from death's doors with a simple touch is simply a joke in people's eyes yet reality says otherwise.
After that, the trio got on the plane and went back to D-Country. The trip was smooth sailing and there was no sight of Grey's men. This made Kai even more suspicious. There was simply no way Grey wouldn't do anything in this period of time, especially after what Kai did to him.
When the private jet landed at the airport. The trio were about to leave the airport when they were stopped by airport security.
"Can you three please follow us for a quick minute." The group of security men was quite big. It was as if they were busting a drug dealer rather than three high schoolers.
"Hm?" Eva and Kaya looked at them with confusion.
However, the only one to realize what was happening was Kai. His eyes flashed with a sparkle of Orange halo before the guards all around them froze in their place.
"Let's go." He said as he passed them as if they were nothing.
The two didn't understand why Kai hypnotized them but they simply followed after him.
"They didn't stop us for an airport check. They worked under Grey." He said as they left the airport and got into Kai's car.
As they drove through the streets, Kai could feel the presence of countless men. They were all Origin users and they seemed to be quite experienced. However, Kai, Eva, and Kaya were way above them in level so they were able to hide their presence from these men.
"Does this man think a few of his lackeys could deal with you?" Kaya asked with an arrogant snort.
"They aren't here to deal with me. He just wants to reveal my identity and then deal with me himself. He is that type of person after all."
"Bastard! Who does he think he is?"
The car eventually reached the apartement complex where they walked inside Kai's apartement. The black cat immediately welcomed her owner back as it leaped into his embrace and fawned all over him.
"We won't stay here for long," Kai said after some thought. He decided on what to do next.
"Hm?" The two women looked at him with puzzled expressions.
"Since Eva wants to increase her strength, I will personally train her. We can't do that here or it will be too eye-catching."
"You will train her?" Kaya blinked a few times.
"I'm too weak to be able to do anything useful," Eva interjected.
Hearing those words, Kaya fell into deep thought. Then, she looked up and said.
"Can I join?"
"... What? No! Aren't you already strong?"
"We're not that far away from each other," Kaya said.
'Tsk, this woman… Fuuh, calm down, Eva. It's training. I need to focus on increasing my strength rather than fooling around with my darling… Or maybe I will leave an hour or two to feel around. Yes, that sounds perfect!' She thought to herself.
"Sure. But, bear in mind both of you that I won't do anything normal. You will be following a training regime that is completely different from what you two have been doing for now. If you aren't strong enough mentally. This training will break you. Are you still ready to do it?" Kai asked.
The two girls looked at him silently before they nodded their heads.
"I'm ready." (x2)
"One more thing. Kaya…" Directing his gaze to the blonde woman, Kai continued. "Are you going to meet your foster father soon?"
"I will need to go back to the HQ to report what happened so yeah, I will meet him."
"I will go along with you." He said.
"Wait, what?!"
The two women almost choked on their own saliva. What did he just say?
"I want to meet him."
"Hold on a second, Kai. Why do you want to meet him?"
"A small change in the plan. If meet him, he could be a huge help."
"Kai, this is very risky. That old man can do unexpected things." Kaya interjected.
"I know what I have to do. Besides, even if they want to try and do something, they can't do much."
"... Sigh, fine." Kaya shook her head and didn't try to persuade him anymore. He seemed adamant about meeting her foster father so she can't really change his mind now.
'Wait, he will meet my foster father who is technically my father… Doesn't sound like he is trying to ask for my hand in marriage?' A small blush appeared on Kaya's face which Eva noticed quickly.
"Wake up from your dream, old hag!" Her female instincts told her that Kaya wasn't thinking of something good.
"What? He's just going to meet my father."
"Grrr, it's just for the plan. What do you think he will talk about?"
"I don't know, you tell me," Kaya said with a mischievous smile.
'Now she's back to being annoying again and here I felt pity for her!' Eva clenched her fists.
Although she thought that Kaya started to act oddly nicer toward her but that quickly returned to normal. Apparently, their banters will continue for a very very long time.
However, that is a story for another day.
