Chapter 81- Plan And a Carrot

The question was direct that could only be answered by a yes or no. Kai knew he couldn't really twist the answer or try to divert it. He should either lie or say the truth. Both have cons and pros.

On one hand, if he lied and denied such a thing, he indeed would be able to keep his ident.i.ty hidden from Kaya. But, the question he should ask himself is, does he really consider Kaya an enemy?

The two had known each other for almost a year now. During this, Kaya didn't show any signs of suspicious activity. She didn't even know that he was an Origin user let alone the Black Phantom. So, she approached him and got close to him simply because she liked him.

This was something that the Kai from a few months ago would've denied. She was an Archangel, someone with authority in an Organization that was taking over the world slowly.

Although her ident.i.ty was still only known by those that were involved in the underworld, with how Divinity was growing, Kaya was bound to become a very well-known figure in the world.

In other words, she was a huge trouble magnet if she wanted to be. However, on the other hand, he didn't really hate Kaya. Although he was wary of what she could do, he never really thought she was threatening toward him. Maybe it was because he had always seen her as this carefree, playful person that adored him.

Even when he was alone, Kaya was ready to spend time with him. Somehow, she slowly became a person Kai considered a friend without even realizing it.

As Kai was thinking about it, he suddenly realized something. Kaya was an Archangel… Which means she was fairly strong.

His mind naturally linked her to the plan he had in mind and it fit perfectly. It was the last puzzle piece he needed to topple down the Guild once and for all.

'This is good… No, this is the optimal strategy.'

Nodding his head, he finally looked at Kaya as he finally took the decision.

"Yes, I am." He said in a calm tone.

His answer made Kaya flinch as she stared at him with slightly widened eyes.

"I used to work as a hitman and now I'm just living my life calmly. I long left that job and I have no intention of going back to it."

"..."

"I also know your ident.i.ty, Kaya. I knew for a while now."

The woman was. .h.i.t with one bombsh.e.l.l after the other. Even when she antic.i.p.ated such an answer, it still shocked her. Then, she held her face and started laughing.

Her chuckles were soft, happy and sad, confused, and relieved. Many contradicting emotions could be felt in her laughs. However, Kai didn't say anything as he waited for her to speak. A minuter later, she finally calmed down and said.

"I'm sorry. It's just funny how all this time, I had been spending the time with the Black Phantom himself. I never really thought of that possibility till now."

"..."

Even with her clear confusion and shock, Kaya still felt the warmth within her chest. Kai had just admitted to a secret of his for the first time in their relationship and that meant that he trusted her. This was a huge step.

"Although it's odd, I still don't care that much about your past. In fact, knowing that you are actually a strong individual puts me at ease. I'm truly happy." Kaya said as she held Kai's hand with both hands.

Her reply did surprise the boy at first as he thought she would be quite perturbed. Instead, she gave him a beautiful smile as if a huge weight just got dropped off her shoulders.

"..." Staring at her silently, Kaya thought her beloved was thinking she was being suspicious so she panicked.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone! It's a secret that I will take with me to the grave as long as you don't want me to tell someone else!" Her frantic reaction woke Kai from his thoughts before he said.

"You aren't an enemy. I trust that you will keep it."

'And that you will be one of the main reasons the Guild will be destroyed.' He finished in his head.

"Mmm, thank you, Kai! This makes me so happy!" Kaya felt as if she couldn't hold it anymore and she quickly jumped on Kai, hugging him tightly.

"I'm really glad I was able to have the courage to tell you!" Her face buried into his neck, inhaling his smell like an addict. This was by far Kaya's favorite odor.

"Wait!" Suddenly, she realized something as she lifted her head up. Their position had turned into Kaya straddling Kai while the latter was laying on the bed. It was very intimate but neither of them gave it much thought. "If you are the Black Phantom… Then, you were captured by the Guild, no?"

"Yes."

"... And you came back in a few minutes?"

"Yes."

"..."

Kaya stared at her darling like an idiot. How was that even possible?! How did he escape?! Is this some kind of joke?

"It's a long story. I will explain later. Now, get off me, the teacher could come back any time soon." Saying that Kai tried to push Kaya away.

"No~ Let me rest a little bit here. I like this place." She said as she rested her chest on Kai's chest. Feeling the softness of her huge b.r.e.a.s.t.s would drive any man crazy.

Especially with her beautiful green eyes staring directly at him with deep fondness and adoration oozing out of them. It was simply irresistible.

However, before Kaya could do anything else, she felt her clothes being pulled before she found herself being thrown in the air.

"Get off him!" Eva said coldly.

Kaya's shocked face turned angry as she spun in the air and landed quietly on her feet.

"Do you have a death wish, kiddo?" She asked.

"Try me. I will punch your teeth out of your nose." Eva said threateningly.

The duo glared at each other with murder intent oozing out of their bodies. If looks could kill, both of them would've been dead by now.

"Both of you, stop." Kai's voice penetrated the tense atmosphere, making the girls flinch. Then, they looked at Kai and said at the same time, pointing at each other.

"She started it!"

"Stop this childish fighting. Are you trying to destroy this place?" He said.

Then, he stood up and cracked his neck. "We need to leave the school for the time being."

Understanding Kai's underlying meaning, the two girls nodded their heads seriously.

"What happened with the guild?" Eva asked first.

"Not here. I will tell you back at my apartement." He said as he walked toward the door followed by the two girls.

"The limousine is waiting outside."

"No need. I bought a car. It's faster." Kai said as he walked to the parking lot of the school. The school was completely empty except of a few people that were still there for some urgent matters. After what happened, the festival was halted for the day and all the people attending it left.

The whole city was in a state of panic at the moment. Everyone thought that there was an earthquake approaching the city and the rumors spread quickly. Eva made sure to boost that spreading of that rumor as it pushes away the suspicion from the existence of Origin users.

It wasn't that hard to influence how people thought. Just give them a carrot they could follow and they will never stop to look back.
