Chapter 192 Chapter 192- Music Palace (Part 1)

After talking with Elu for a while, Kaya finally left the lab and drove her car to the airport. During the trip, she called Kai again.

"So, what do you think of what you heard?"

"The mysterious liquid part is bugging me. Something that can turn Origin into pure liquid doesn't make any sense. Divinity had been stuck on understanding how Origin works and then suddenly they acquired a knowledge advanced enough to change the nature of Origin?"

Kai knew the current level of comprehension the world has about Origin since he himself contributed to that understanding through the Guild. Sure, Divinity was a huge organization with hundreds of minds working under it, exploring the world of Origin day in and day out.

However, this sudden evolution didn't make any sense.

"I thought the same too. Something is fishy about all of this. Is Divinity perhaps hiding a genius that is working in secret, discovering all of this?"

"No, that's highly unlikely. At least it has been like that for a while." Kai said.

'No, if there is really a genius that did all of this, they would never simply work under Divinity. With that knowledge, they can easily take control over Divinity.'

"Well, either way, I'm coming back. Do you need anything I should bring with me?"

"No. Good work." He said.

"Awww, thank you, darling," Kaya said as she kissed the phone before hanging.

"That makes this whole trip worth it, aside from seeing Elu~" She chuckled to herself.

***

When Kaya came back, Eva had also arrived at Kai's apartement with the tickets to attend the concerts. Kaya had also heard about it and she decided to attend to it.

Kai had to stop the two girls from bantering around after that. In the end, Eva agreed to bring Kaya along.

The group then packed their stuff and left for the airport.

The trip to the Music Palace took around 12 hours. Cutting through a whole continent was a long distance.

"Woah, Kai, look!" Kaya said enthusiastically as she pointed from the private jet's window.

Kai and Eva instinctively took a look outside. There, from thousands of meters in the air, the view was mesmerizing.

Music Palace was a gigantic island. Well, it was at least big enough to be seen from this alt.i.tude. It was said that a rich businessman bought this island and turned it into a full high-cla.s.s resort with everything a person could ask for.

The huge concert arena was only built 15 years ago and quickly was named the biggest music arena in the world with hundreds of thousands of seats for fans.

"This place became even more beautiful than I remember," Eva murmured with an impressed expression.

Eva had indeed attended some music festivals and concerts here before because of her job so she knows the place very well. On the other hand, Kai and Kaya never had the opportunity to come there.

When the jet landed and the trio left the airport, they were hit with a bustling street choke full of people.

"Woah! How many people are here?"

"These are all fans of Claire Redsky. They all want to see her back on stage."

"What the h.e.l.l is this Claire Redsky? Is she really that good?" Kaya murmured as she pushed someone who was about to collide with her away.

"Yeah, she's a genius. I was mesmerized by her music from the first time I heard it." Eva said as she walked past a group of people who gave her a weird smile. With a simple glare, they all looked away.

The group eventually cut their way through the huge crowds before they walked toward the main hotel of the island.

"Three VIP rooms please."

"Of course. Please wait a moment." The receptionist said before he handed them the keys.

'Tsk, so I won't be able to stay with Kai. Dammit!!' Kaya thought to herself.

"Hm? What's wrong, saggy b.r.e.a.s.t.s?" Eva asked with a confused expression.

"Huh? N-Nothi- Wait, who the f.u.c.k are you calling saggy b.r.e.a.s.t.s you infant!"

"I'm just describing you. Also, I'm not an infant! I'm about to be an adult in a few months!" Eva shrugged.

"Sure, infant. Whatever you say." Kaya rolled her eyes.

"You two, be quiet," Kai said as he stopped in front of a room that had the same number on his key.

"Oh, my room is next to yours."

"Mine too. What a great coincidence."

Of course, it was no coincidence. Eva made sure that when she made the reservation, her room, and Kai's room would be next to each other.

'However, I never intended for saggy b.r.e.a.s.t.s to be next to him from the other side too!!'

"Hahaha, tough muck, mother's milk. I already knew you would try to put me in a room far away from here so I made a reservation beforehand."

"Tsk…"

"The concert is tonight so we still have some free time. Rest well." Kai said as he entered his room.

"Take care, darling."

"Sure, my love."

The two girls replied enthusiastically.

The interior of the room was as luxurious as Kai expected. Granted, it wasn't as big as the suit he reserved back in A-country but it was still large enough to accommodate multiple individuals.

After settling down, Kai sat down on his bed and looked outside from the balcony. The view was on the sea sh.o.r.e which was mesmerizing. He stayed like that for a while before he closed his eyes.

Tonight, he was going to kill that woman. Although this has been his goal this whole time, it still didn't make him feel satisfied.

Something was wrong with Claire's actions. She was hiding for all these years, avoiding Kai fully aware that he was going to come after her the moment any small information about her leaked out.

Yet, for some reason, she suddenly decided to reveal herself in the most reckless way. There was simply no way Kai would've not heard about this concert and Claire was definitely aware of that.

'What are you scheming?' He squinted his eyes thoughtfully.

At that moment, the door to his room knocked. Looking at the door, Kai couldn't feel any aura around the person so he a.s.sumed it was one of the housekeeping staff.

Approaching the door, he opened it. But, the person he saw there wasn't a staff member. Instead, it was someone he was very familiar with. h.e.l.l, he was just thinking about her a second ago.

Looking at the blind girl silently, Kai's mind was in a chaotic state. He really didn't expect to see her right now and there.

"Aria…" He murmured lowly before his face turned into a cold frown.

"Hey, Kai… It has been a while." Claire -or how Kai addressed her as Aria- spoke in an oddly calm tone. "Can I enter?"

Kai's eyes squinted for a second before he moved aside and let her in. The girl nodded her head and moved inside with her cane.

But, the moment Kai closed the door, Aria felt a sharp cold feeling on her nape. A trickle of blood leaked from the small injury.

"You really want to die, huh? Considering the fact that you came here to see me out of your own accord." Kai said with his hand pointed at Aria.

"Before you do anything. Can I please speak?" Aria said without turning around.

"..." Kai didn't move as he waited for her to speak.

"I came here to talk with you about something."

"Speak."

"Can I sit down, please? Standing for too long makes me feel disoriented."

"Speak. You have ten seconds before I cut all your limbs off and extract the information I need." Kai said coldly, denying her request.

"I'm sure you're confused as to why I showed myself after all these years. I know that I betrayed your trust. Apologizing won't fix anything and will only make you hate me even more. I lived with the guilt of what I did for my whole life. It ate away my sanity."

Kai rolled his eyes briefly as he listened to her. He really didn't buy any of her heartfelt words at all even though someone else would hear the deep sincerity in them.

"Am I supposed to feel something?"

However, Aria shook her head.

"I'm not here for that since I'm prepared to die today. I'm here for another matter."

"And that is?"

"Your father."

The moment Aria uttered the word 'father', Kai's aura exploded powerfully. A suffocating pressure stronger than anything else he ever exuded weighed down on Aria. However, she didn't seem to be too affected by it.

His eyes turned even sharper as visible hatred flashed across them.

"Speak." He said in a menacing tone.

"Ever since you left… He, uh, started moving again in secret. I didn't know at first what he was doing. But, I recently heard that he had taken control over an Organization you might've heard of."

Kai's eyes widened slightly.

'Took control over an organization? Wait…' Suddenly, it all clicked in his head.

A shocking revelation that turned everything upside down.
