Chapter 264 Chapter 264- Threats And Gambles

Kai and Eva continued talking for a while after that about different topics. However, they mainly focused on the topic of what Kai, Kaya and Aria went through in their trip. He told Eva about every single thing that happened from beginning to end without stopping.

Eva listened quietly to his story, reacting whenever she heard something absurd and calming down after that until he was done. Even as he was telling her the story, Kia couldn't believe himself. It was simply such a ridiculous adventure. However, if there was one thing that Kai decided to hide, it was what he saw in the tower.

That was simply not something he could tell. He did trust Kaya, Eva and Aria not to tell anyone or even feel anything different toward him if they knew his past,

When he was done with it, Eva's face was completely changed. "I... didn't know that you went through all of this..."

"Yeah, it was a very annoying mission and I still don't understand most of what happened. However, I also learned many things. Probably the most important is that everything we know about the Progenitor is a bunch of crafted lies."

"To think that the Progenitor isn't even a human. At first, it sounded ridiculous, but if you think about it, that explains everything and links perfectly with the monster that we saw in that cave in the frozen plains." nOVE)lb.In

Kai nodded his head with a sigh as he ran his hand through his hair before he answered. "I still, however, don't know what could really happen in the future. Before, I had a rough prediction, but now, I have not a single idea. There are too many possibilities to count."

Usually, Kai would have an idea of what would happen before it happens from simply analyzing the situation around him. However, this time was different, very different. The variables in the situation he was in and the lack of understanding of what was happening made it way harder to predict what would happen in the future.

That means that Kai will need to face things one by one, dealing with them accordingly. However, that would most likely take too much time, something that he can't spare currently.

'If I'm going to get into this, I will need to heal myself first and deal with that man. He will be too annoying if I keep him alive for what will happen in the future.'

"Kai?" Eva noticed the frown on Kai's face and called his name worriedly.

"She's not going to be able to move a lot during this period of time and she won't be able to go back either. So, we agreed that she will stay here for now." Kai explained.

"Really? Now that's some good news. I really miss mother's milk." Kaya smiled mischievously as she sat down again.

"With that, Eva will start attending the academy too."

"Wait, really?" Aria asked with a frown. "Isn't that dangerous?"

"I agree with Aria on this one. She got busted by Ethia and could easily be captured if she enters the academy again."

"She won't get busted. If Ethia wanted to capture her, the two would've fought. However, she let her go freely which means that Ethia herself doesn't want a fight. It's not advantageous for her." Kai explained. "If anything, making her join now would put Ethia at ease since she will be under her watch. That will make it easier to actually handle Ethia.

Kai didn't want Ethia to move as she wanted and do what she wanted. He wanted to know her plans and what she's intending to do in detail. However, to go around doing that, he needed her to drop her guard first and to do that, he had to give her bait.

Since she had met Eva, that means that she suspects her of trying to do something to Divinity. So, if Eva joins the academy, Ethia would think that Eva was trying to continue with her plans which would lead her to actually making a move instead of staying in the dark.

This plan was definitely dangerous, but it was better than giving Ethia and Divinity the full control over the situation. Kai needed to get them back to the path he wanted them to go on. But, at the same time, he wasn't intending to put Eva in a dangerous situation.

Kaya and Aria understood his intentions and could only agree. They really had no other choice in this matter. They had to trust Kai and Eva and believe in their ability to keep the situation from getting worse and those two were pretty capable.

"Ethia isn't dumb to actually do anything reckless in the academy." He added.

"She better not or she will push us to do things that neither of us would want to happen." Kaya replied with a serious look.

A full on war wasn't a very outlandish idea at this point. Striding carefully was important if they didn't want to end up destroying the whole city and sending everything into chaos. That wasn't their intention nor their goal.
