Chapter 318: Talk (1/2)
”Good.” Kai nodded before handing the paper to Michelle. ”We will talk about the details at a later date. Is that alright with you?”
”Yeah. I need your confirmation first before planning everything. And now that I have received it, I will begin… It will take a few months, but it will surely finish in April or May. We will talk again at that time.” She nodded in agreement, but she still had a hard time hiding her embarrassment.
”Alright. I will leave this matter in your hand.” Kai nodded. ”What are you going to do with the other four teams? Will you inform them about this? Or have you informed them?”
”I haven't told them anything about this because they will surely get angry.”
”Sure enough. To challenge my group alone is a kind of looking down on them.”
”But don't worry, I will persuade them after at least half of my plan has taken place in this. You don't need to worry about it because I will make sure they use their full strength to fight you by that time.”
Kai nodded and thought for a moment. ”I will also handle anything from my side.”
”Sure.”
Kai and Michelle then left the room, returning to their loved room.
As soon as they entered, the thought about telling them immediately vanished from his mind. First, he thought it would be better to tell Tasha a bit later because he accepted this was due to her graduation.
Sofia also had the same reason as she would leave the group at that time, so this battle didn't really concern her.
He could tell Evan while doing the mission in Michelle's hand right now, so that left Ayaka. Since it was only one person, Kai glanced at Michelle, signaling something.
Sensing his gaze, she nodded as if she understood the meaning. He had told her about it while walking back, so she would be the one to inform Ayaka when Kai left for a mission with Evan.
”Anyway, this is the mission.” Isabelle handed the mission paper to Evan. ”Prepare yourself to meet the expectations placed on your shoulders.”
”I will do my best.” Evan nodded and read the mission.
After that, Kai picked up the research paper he read earlier, albeit everyone except Kai had their own research paper because they would use the meaningful holiday to increase their strength. None of them wanted to let others stay ahead.
Kai nodded and continued his job until Evan asked him.
”When are we going?”
”It will be in three days. It will take a few days in normal circumstances, so I don't want our schedule to be packed up. Meanwhile, we will also hold a battle among ourselves. It will be me versus you guys on the last day before the holiday.”
”I see.” Evan nodded and asked, ”What is the plan?”
”I won't think about a complicated one. We will simply swipe them up from one area to another while finding the leaders. It will take a bit longer, but I am sure you will gain a lot during this time.”
”Thank you.” Evan smiled and agreed to the arrangement. Although it was his selfish wish to do the mission with only the two of them, Kai still thought the best.
”I am going to be harsh on you during this mission, okay?”
”Sure. I will be sure to keep up with you.”
”That's good then. We shall leave in two days and stay a night in the current base to observe the situation. We will start our mission on the third day.”
”Oh?!” Evan was surprised as to why he made this arrangement. Usually, Kai would surely leave at the last minute or the exact same date, so they didn't need to wait that long. But it seemed he had another reason for doing so.
Nonetheless, Evan had no reason to reject it. ”Alright then.”
The day passed just like that. The following day had no difference except for Evan and Kai discussing the details of their plans and the preparations. As for the four ladies, they had their own talks during this time.
And finally, the day had come. Kai met Evan in front of the school, heading toward the newest Military Base built in Argentina.
”Hmm… So, this is what it looks like when the base is in the middle of construction.” Evan muttered while looking at the window.
They were flying above them right now, giving a nice view of the beast from the air.
”Yeah. We couldn't cross Chile this time because it will be dangerous, so I couldn't scout the magical beasts from the air. That's why I will get some information from the base first.”
”Is that why you want to come earlier?”
