35 Spending The Final Moments of Life (2/2)

He knew the feeling he has for her was more than lust but he didn't know what was this feeling. He didn't dare think it was love because deep in his heart he thought neither of them wants to be tied down!

Kiba and Eva started their physical relationship because there were no restrictions! They did it out of their own free will with no pressure from any one of them!

They have a secret business relationship with each other, like how she help him in managing his finances, but the physical relationship wasn't a part of the deal. It was something they did because both of them want to!

”Hey! Wake up! Just how many times will you daydream tonight?” Eva asked with a teasing smile. She placed a glass of whiskey on his hand and sat next to him on the bed.

”I am too dazed today,” Kiba said with an awkward laughter.

Eva sipped in the whiskey from her glass while lighting a cigarette and said, ”You must have spent too much of your energy in last 12 hours.”

”Hehehe. I really went overboard today,” Kiba said.

”You might not have to wait for old age to die if you continue like this,” Eva said while enjoying a puff of the cigarette.

”I guess I became too greedy, but smoking would result in an early death as well,” Kiba took the cigarette from her hand and smoked in before continuing, ”I don't want you to die early!”

”Same here,” Eva said taking back the cigarette.

--------------------------

After a few minutes, Eva placed the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

”Kiba, tell me why you are here,” She asked in a serious tone. She knew Kiba far too well and was sure he wouldn't come at such a late time for just making out.

Kiba looked at her and said,” I came here to warn you.”

”Warn me?” Eva was startled.

”Hank is going on a path which would lead to nothing but destruction and death. I am afraid you will be caught in as well,” Kiba said in a serious tone.

”What path has my father taken that you think might lead me to death?” Eva asked with her eyes containing faint traces of worry. She was sure Kiba wouldn't make such claims as a joke.

”You know the mineral I brought after killing the mutants from Sky Fiend Group?”

”Yes, I remember. You mean that mineral would lead to my father's and mine demise?”

Kiba nodded and then stated the details he has learned from Hank.

He talked about the faint traces of Divine Particles inside the mineral he brought, and Hank's obsession with eternal life.

Kiba explained how Hank wanted him to lead a team to steal the technology for retrieving the Divine Particles from Sky Fiend Group.

”I don't understand. Surely father wouldn't take the risk unless he has some assurances on the mission,” Eva said unsure why would Kiba think it was a sure death mission.

”Most likely he doesn't know the true power of Sky Fiend Group,” Kiba paused in between before continuing,” But I can assure you of one thing. The Sky Fiend Group is powerful enough to eradicate White Angel Corporation.”

Kiba didn't know about the powers of Sky Fiend Group himself but he was sure in his claim. When Hank explained the mission to him, he felt a grave sense of crisis.

This sense of danger and crisis was an ability he was born with. Even though the ability belongs to Zed, it was active in the body of Kiba as well.

Ever since he gained the Cosmic Spark, he has never felt his instinct going crazy. They have never warned him even when he was Zed for his instincts know about his powers as Kiba.

But yet his instincts started going crazy after hearing about the mission. He felt a mental pain so unbearable which he has only felt once before!That was during the mining incident four years ago, when Castor Damon and his team forced him and hundreds of others to participate in the mining expedition.

At that time he was only Zed with no Cosmic Spark so it was understandable for his instincts to go crazy seeing the danger involved.

He barely survived the expedition and became Kiba after fusing with Cosmic Spark. Everyone else on the expedition died with Castor Damon being killed by him.

Now though he has gained such great powers thanks to Cosmic Spark, and his instincts knew the true extent of his abilities. But yet they warned him in such a manner, that could only mean something or someone in the Sky Fiend Group has the power to pose as a danger to him!

Kiba didn't underestimate his powers but he knew he couldn't look down on all the factions of the world.

In fact, he was confident enough to destroy many factions of this world, much less the city, if he goes all out. This was why he didn't really care when he made so many enemies in the city with his habits of having affairs with the wives and daughters of powerful people.

Yet he was wise enough to know that he wasn't omnipotent. In the mining expedition, he has heard Castor Damon theorizing that the meteorites, which changed the very structure of Earth, were the pieces of a supreme world which used Cosmic Spark as its power source.

Even such a supreme world was destroyed so how can Kiba think he has the strength to do anything as he pleases in the entire world?

”I think Sky Fiend Group is powerful enough to not only destroy your corporation but even pose as a threat to World Government and other top factions,” Kiba explained his guess,” Most likely Sky Fiend Group was hiding its true power from the start.”

Eva nodded her head.Even though he didn't tell her what was the danger or how he knows of the danger, she knew he wouldn't make such claims unless he was absolutely confident of.

”The greatest enemy of the human race is their lust,” Eva said with a deep sigh.

Lust can be of many forms not only sexual. In the current era of mutants and technology, almost everyone lusted eternal life and power. No matter how rich you are, it is useless if you are going to die.

The fear of death and losing everything is what made the lust for eternal life so strong in everyone's mind. Now, this same lust was going to ruin her family.

”Lust makes life worth living through,” Kiba said with a smile. He kissed her on the lips after which he started wearing his clothes.

”Thank you,” Eva said.

She knew given the old-fashioned nature of her father, he wouldn't share the details of Divine Particles with her. Even if he did, she wouldn't be able to realize the hidden danger waiting for her. Now, at the least, she could make some worst-case plans for herself.

”I don't want my favorite girl to die so soon after all,” Kiba looked at her for some time before continuing, ”You asked me how I plan to enjoy my moments when I become an old man waiting for his death. I think I now have the answer.”

”You realized the answer so soon?”

”Yes, I realized the answer just now.”

”So how is it you want to enjoy the final moments of your life?”

”Living the final moments of my life with you would be joyous enough. Perhaps more enjoyable than anything else in my life,” Kiba said after which rays of white light surrounded him.
