Chapter 49- Unwanted Old Friends (Part 1)

Kai's aura turned a degree colder as pressure loomed over the whole house. His face looked so scary that it would make anyone faint from merely looking at him. No one, not even Eva had ever seen him in that state. A state of anger.

His purple eyes, shining in the darkness traced the man that he just killed. At that moment, Kai was barely holding himself from letting his aura cover this whole place, this whole city even. However, how could he be blamed when he was forced to break one of the rules he set for himself?

'Never kill a single soul again unless it's necessary.' This was something he promised himself never to break again. He grew sick of killing, it was never fun, never enjoyable. In fact, the more Kai killed, the more he felt his soul was being burdened.

It was as if all of them were chasing after him, haunting his dreams at night and his mind during the day. It reached a point where he felt completely suffocated from that.

So, even though he did set a condition for himself in which he could kill, it still didn't make him feel any better.

Touching his face, he slid his hair back a little as he breathed in and out to calm himself.

"Meow!" At that moment, the cat approached him before she nimbly jumped on his shoulder and then started rubbing her face against his cheek while purring as if she was consoling him.

Kai frowned slightly as he watched the cat silently before he sighed and picked up his phone and dialed someone.

"Hello, Kai? Is everything ok?" He heard Eva's slightly tired voice.

"Where are you?" He asked.

"I just came back to my parent's house and I'm sleeping now."

"70 hitmen are coming to your house right now and their leader is… Gabi." Kai said.

Immediately, Eva's face turned serious as all sleepiness left her eyes. She already anticipated their arrival. But, the last part did indeed quite surprise her.

"Gabi? Wait… Don't tell me!"

"Yes, he is Charlamagne's son. I still don't understand how I never noticed that."

Kai didn't know much about Gabi. In fact, he was one of the very few people that Kai really had no idea about. He was a complete mystery through and through.

However, some small details were starting to come back to Kai and he realized that he could've realized this fact way sooner than this. Ah, well, what happened just happened. He will still have to deal with him.

"I will deal with him…" Eva suddenly declared with a confident tone which made Kai raise an eyebrow. He knew that Eva was very powerful. But, Gabi wasn't simply strong, he was a monster with no sympathy. He would use any trick up his sleeve to win and that always works.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm confident. Since the moment you helped me breakthrough through with my main talent, I've been improving at an extremely rapid pace. Leave it to me to protect my own family, Kai! I've already relied on you long enough!" Eva smiled warmly as she touched her chest.

"... He sent 10 hitmen after me and 20 others, one for each student in the class. He wants to kidnap them and kill them right in front of you and your family to break your spirit. He is also going to target your little sister."

When Kai told her, Eva's face immediately froze before it was replaced with a chilling gaze. Her aura broke through and covered her whole body.

Her anger rose to a higher level than ever before. How dare that piece of shit try and play dirty with her?! Target her classmates, her little sister, and even her beloved!! He has a death wish! No, he was going to die!!

"Kai… I want to kill him myself. No, I will make sure he dies by my own hands or I won't be able to calm down." She said coldly, her words strong enough to make anyone pale.

"Do what you want. I will deal with the students' matter and then… I'm heading to the Charlamagne household to pay them a visit."

"Mmm, I understand. Please, be careful, Kai." Eva said as she held the phone with both hands.

Although she knew that the ones that should be worried were the Charlamagnes, she still could only feel anxious whenever she sees her lover doing something with a degree of danger to it. Her heart would squeeze with pain.

"..." Kai didn't say anything for a while before he said. "I'm indestructible. Nothing can harm me." He said in an arrogant tone.

If it was anyone else other than Kai who said those words, everyone would think they are just bluffing words. However, because the Black Phantom said them, no one dares to think they are anything but the truth!

"Ok, I know. But, just for me to feel at ease, can you promise me that nothing bad will happen?" Eva asked. For some odd reason, she felt slightly uneasy at that moment. Something inside her told her that it may not end as well as she and everyone else would expect.

"..." At that moment, Kai's eyes widened slightly as he recalled a memory from the distant past. Someone, somewhere, years ago, had asked him the same question. However, when he tried to remember what he said after that, his head throbbed with pain.

"Nothing will happen." After getting rid of the pain, Kai shook his head and then hung up.

He didn't need promises. Promises are merely a way for the weak to feel assured. He wasn't weak. If he wanted something to happen, he will make it happen, simple as that.

After that, he walked out of his room and left his house as he disappeared into the night.

His speed was inhuman while nimbly jumping from one roof to another crossing whole streets in a few seconds. His cat was sitting lazily around his neck as if what was happening was simply a walk in the park on a breezy night.

'Good thing that I memorized all the addresses of everyone inside the school. It came in handy.' He thought as he approached the closest house from him.

When it came into vision, Kai landed in the backyard and looked around, searching for the presence of the hitman. When he located him inside the house, precisely inside the room the student, Kai quickly jumped in the air, reaching the window in one leap.

The inside of the room looked quite feminine since it belonged to a girl. Kai's purple eyes analyzed the room before he jumped inside.

The hitman saw him and was about to freak out when Kai nimbly closed the distance between them and grabbed his face.

"Sleep." He murmured. The next moment, the man's strength vanished as he succumbed to sleep. After that, Kai walked to the window and then threw the hitman outside in the backyard. He knew that the family will deal with him when they woke up the next morning.

However, at that moment, he heard a moan behind him. Looking back, he saw the girl had just stood up from her bed and was staring directly at him.

Kai was about to erase any memory of her ever seeing him. However, the girl suddenly smiled as she said.

"My handsome prince~ You finally came for me. I was waiting for you~" She said in a low tone.

"..."

Kai understood that she wasn't actually awake and instead was… Sleepwalking? Surprisingly, his suspicion was confirmed the next second as she turned around and went back to sleep as if nothing happened.

Seeing that there was no point in staying there anymore, Kai turned around and jumped out before he vanished.

Then, for the next 20 minutes, he went around catching all the hitmen that tried to kidnap his classmates and then made them fall asleep. The task was easy enough but Kai knew it was simply the beginning.

Now, he had to do the annoying part, end the Charlamagne family once and for all. However, to do that, he had to pay a visit to an old friend. Or to be more precise, 'friends'. Friends that he wished he would never have to see again.
