Chapter 262: Ria Ross (1/2)

Just like that, three days had passed.

Michelle seemed to have more confidence than before, and Kai certainly knew the reason. Ayaka had gotten a few new pieces of equipment. Tasha was the most relaxed one because she had done everything she could after Rapakha's training.

On the other hand, Sofia had apologized to them because she made the situation awkward due to the fights with Rapakha. She then recovered and gradually became normal again.

Evan, on the other hand, was looking at his device to see whether they had an announcement to go. At the same time, he was also curious about Sanae and asked. ”Teacher. Are you going to participate in this mission like the previous one?”

”No. The school has ordered us to standby here. The operation this time is too big, so it's better for us to not join, so you can directly see what kind of battlefield with a few hundred thousand magical beasts in it.”

”The school is not worried about their students then?”

”Not really. The army has taken care of that, so if you want to blame anyone, blame then, not me.” Sanae shrugged.

Kai nodded. ”Alright. In that case, we are going to set off, Teacher.”

”Yes. Be careful out there.” Sanae nodded.

Kai and the others then left the room, heading toward their personal helicopter and flying to the sky.

Half an hour later, the helicopter landed on the military base, where Kai was greeted by the generals.

Kai tilted his head, wondering what was going to happen. These four would surely gather attention if they were in the same place, let alone greeting a student.

”May I know what is going on here?” Kai politely asked.

”Nothing. We are just curious about the little devil who is going to fight with us today.” Jose smirked.

”That's right. Besides, he seemed to have undergone an interesting training far from here.” Nathan nodded in agreement.

”Well, I just hope for a safe battle.” Ethan shrugged.

”Haha… You need strength to do that.” Paolo laughed before getting smacked by his wife.

”Ehm? Then, should we have a meeting?” Kai asked.

”It's fine. You can put down your luggage first because we are going tomorrow. And the meeting shouldn't take that long.” Ria suddenly appeared and said nonchalantly. ”I am too tired from having too many meetings.”

”It's a pain in the ass to explain everything to the soldiers and us, right?” Nathan grinned, teasing her.

”That's right. You three idiot old men, why can't you simply listen to my order and ask nothing.” Ria let out a long sigh.

”These three are pretty cute despite their age, you know.” Jose smiled.

”They are dumb.” Ria shrugged before grabbing Kai and dragging him inside. ”Anyway, let's go inside first. The meeting will be held in three hours. I don't want it to be more than half an hour.”

”…” The generals only smiled when looking at their back before Jose smiled to Kai's teammates. ”Come inside. They are going to your room.”

”Ah, yes.” Michelle and the others were startled and immediately followed Kai.

As soon as they put out their luggage, Ria asked him to follow her as she wanted to talk about something.

They went to the rooftop. Ria leaned her back on the ceiling as she looked up. ”Say… What do you think about fighting an S rank magical beast?”

Kai thought for a moment and genuinely said, ”I don't think the spider is stronger than Elder Rapakha.”

”…” Ria scratched her head. ”Have something hit your head?”

Kai shook his head. He could clearly remember how hard it was to fight Rapakha. Even with all combinations he could think, the first attack that took his arm somehow became their last clean hit.

Although the poison would be dangerous, they had trained their dodging ability since Rapakha didn't hold back with his attack.

”Since you think of him with that high regard, what do you think if I fight him?”

”I don't think you will win.” Kai shook his head.

”He was that powerful huh… I think it's time to say goodbye to my 'Teacher' title.”

”Eh?”

”I think I will ship you to Easter Island, so you can train more there.”

”…” Kai widened his eyes before shaking his head. ”No, no. You might not be the best teacher that I can hope for, but I think you are the most suitable one for me. I think of you more than my teacher.”

”Eh? Do you like a taboo relationship?” Ria made a face of disgust.

”I mean, I see you like an older sister… No, a mother is more suitable.”

”Oh. A Teacher-Student relationship is an insult. A Mother-Son relationship is an honor.”

”Can you stop teasing me already?” Kai rolled his eyes. ”I seriously think of you like that. Now that I see the past, I can see this matter clearly. That's why I want to thank you for everything.”
