Chapter 359: When Prank Goes Wrong

1st April was the start of the new curriculum. The students finally returned after a long vacation. Unlike the previous year where they got work for a Raid Mission, the students had truly gotten their long vacation.

Inside the Carter Family House, Kai was fixing his hair and uniform before Tasha's voice rang on his ears.

"Kai, we are going now."

This might be an advantage in daily life since Tasha or any other family members never had the need to raise their voice when calling him.

"I'm coming," Kai replied with a loud voice and started walking toward the living room where Tasha was waiting. To his surprise, his parents were there too.

Considering they had gone for three months, they missed them so much, so neither Tasha nor him said anything about it. They only recalled when their parents hugged them tightly as soon as they returned home.

After finishing all the preparation, the two headed to school with Tasha's Teleportation Magic and took the classes that day. After lunch, they only had one more class before they gathered again in their usual room to pass the day.

Kai headed straight to the room with Michelle and Sofia.

"You two look stronger." Kai smiled.

"Hehe, you too." Michelle smiled back.

However, Kai noticed something was different from Michelle and asked, "Are you alright?"

"Of course. I have settled everything already, so you don't need to worry about me." She waved her hand.

Kai furrowed his eyebrows before giving her a mysterious statement. "Every now and then, there are people who seem to sacrifice a lot for others even though they can solve it easier when they tell the others about it."

Michelle also understood his hidden meaning and kissed his cheek. "Don't worry. I am fine."

"Okay." Kai nodded, not wanting to pry her secret any longer. Although he worried about her, pestering too much might also destroy one's relationship, so he chose to trust her and stopped talking about it.

"By the way, do you want to make a surprise for this April Fool's day?" She asked.

"Hmm?" Kai and Michelle frowned, wondering what she had in mind.

"You see, there is interesting information about Evan." She smirked.

"What is it?" Kai asked.

"You should know the Poison Master of EU Base, right?"

The two nodded.

"She has a daughter…Currently ten years old. And there is Evan, a predator."

"Alright. You don't need to talk about it anymore. I've got it." Kai stopped her while nodding his head repeatedly, knowing what she wanted to do.

"I am going to change then." Sofia grinned before leaving them.

Kai and Michelle exchanged looks and understood their roles in this. They waited for Sofia to change.

And as expected, Sofia looked like one.

"I am ready."

Kai noticed there was a different voice but wasn't noticeable for normal humans, so he thought this was perfect to start.

They then walked toward their room before slamming the door.

Bang.

The group was startled but soon replaced by confusion as they looked at Michelle and Kai, who seemed to be angry.

The two glared at Evan with a disgusted expression.

Evan tilted his head for a few seconds before remembering that someone had certainly witnessed what happened in EU Base. His body became tense, and he gulped down.

"Evan…" Kai glanced with a cold gaze.

"Y-yes!" Because of the situation, he couldn't contain his calm and stood up suspiciously.

With this alone, Ayaka and Tasha seemed to find something was not right. However, Kai's expression didn't let them ask about what happened, so they decided to see how this would play out.

"I am disappointed in you." Kai let out a long sigh.

"I have never expected that you don't even spare a kid," said Michelle while shaking her head helplessly.

"Spare a kid?" Ayaka and Tasha gasped and couldn't contain their curiosity. "Did he kill a kid?"

"No. He is the worst. He is a sex criminal." Michelle shook her head and uttered those words with killing intent.

"I didn't do anything!" Evan exclaimed, trying to explain everything, but Kai interrupted him. "Then, do you think corrupting a ten years old kid is not a crime?"

"Like I said, I didn't do anything. I just trained, trained, and trained."

"Hoh? You didn't do anything?" Kai narrowed his eyes.

"I…I only played with her like how a normal kid would play." Evan finally corrected his statement before adding his explanation. "I just helped my teacher to take care of her daughter. Since she helped me during my stay, I tried to give something back by helping her in this area."

"Oh, really? Then what's with the statements that shouldn't be known for a ten years old girl? Especially with drugs?" Michelle added the fuel to the flame.

This certainly influenced Tasha and Ayaka as both of them looked at him with disgust.

"To think I haven't really known my own comrade that has fought together for almost two years."

"I agree. We might need to call the authorities here…Wait, is there any international organization that deals with this type of stuff?"

"I don't think so. We should call the one in this base." Ayaka shook her head.

"Let me explain!" Evan shouted before he dropped his jaw.

Isabelle's figure slowly became visible behind Kai and Michelle. Cold sweat started covering his body as he instantly rose to his feet. "I…"

Ayaka and Tasha then realized what just happened and found Isabelle behind the two.

"This problem…We are not qualified to deal with it, so we bring her. You two should deal with it." Kai let out a long sigh before walking to the side. Michelle also did the same, revealing Isabelle completely.

The person in question only had a cold glance. She looked down on Evan. "Kneel."

When Evan heard that, he instantly fell on his knees.

Isabelle slowly walked closer to him without any reaction. The situation became tense since no one said anything.

"I want to cry and run from this, but I just can't. I…I…Am disappointed in you." Isabelle's sad voice penetrated his heart.

Evan looked down, feeling guilty. When he wanted to raise his vision to explain, he found a tear splashed on the floor.

As expected of Sofia, she knew how to act.

"I…" Evan wanted to wipe her tears but realized he wasn't worth it.

"Pfft!" Suddenly, Kai and Michelle couldn't contain their poker face anymore and began laughing. And Kai deemed this prank should stop before it went wrong.

Seeing the two had enough fun, Sofia finally smiled. "April Fool!"

"…" Evan didn't have a reaction for a few seconds as if his brain had a short circuit. "Did…"

"Yes. This is all just a prank." Kai explained while laughing. He then pointed at the door that still opened. "That door…If you take a closer look, you should notice a thin translucent barrier. It's my Sound Insulation Room Magic."

After realizing that, Evan instantly noticed the thin layer, and Kai finally retracted the barrier. The sound of people talking in the corridor could be heard again.

Evan clenched his fist, wondering why he didn't notice this. Even Tasha and Ayaka got fooled because of the issue.

"Still, what a great laugh," said Kai with his hand on his stomach, laughing too much until his stomach hurt.

"You bastard! I am going to kill you!" Evan shouted and slammed the table. "I almost got myself killed."

"But seriously…I can't understand how you charm this little girl…Just so you know, although the age limit is reduced from the previous civilization, you still need to be above sixteen, alright? You can't do anything to a little girl like that." Kai warned him.

"I know, but I am sure she was just kidding. It was completely her mother's fault, not me." Evan sighed, frustrated.

"That's not my problem. As a friend, I won't say anything about your personal problem, especially in this area. But I think you should talk about it with Isabelle."

"I know."

"Still, to think a certain player manages to grasp the heart of a ten years old girl. When I heard it back then, I was about to call the police to handle a pedophile." Sofia grinned, teasing him again.

"Anyway, Michelle, can you close the door? I have retracted the barrier, so it's better to be closed."

"Sure."

When she was about to rise from the coach, another familiar voice resounded in their ears. The group instantly turned around to see another Isabelle standing in front of their room. "Hoho…I certainly found something great."

The group instantly gulped down, realizing that the prank had finally gone wrong.

Sofia instantly changed her face again so as to not impersonate her anymore. Evan's face turned pale while the others became tense.

Isabelle, who just learned the news, brought the souvenir bag she brought. She slowly walked toward Kai with a smile before giving it to him. Her smile was still there, and she even thanked him politely. "It's been a while. This is not much, but this is some appreciation from me."

Kai's movement was stiff, but he still managed to grab the back. He remembered there was also a present for Evan and Isabelle from his teacher, so he gave it to her. "This…is from my Teacher. I am sure it will help."

Isabelle took a glance at it and realized what the present was. She bowed to him again. "Thank you very much. Please, give my thanks to your teacher too."

"Y-yes."

Isabelle then turned around and walked toward Evan. "Darling. Can you kindly explain all about this? Of course, we shall not disturb the people here, so let's talk about it somewhere else."

Evan knew that his life ended today. Isabelle didn't let him go and immediately grabbed his collar, dragging him outside.

She didn't forget to close the door, but everyone could see her summoning her weapon before the door was closed.

They looked at each other and blinked their eyes a few times, not knowing what to do.
