Chapter 35- The World Is Moving
A few hours after Kai left Agent 879's apartment.
A dark figure entered the house, their face was covered with an odd mask that had one single eye on it. Their body was clad in black which hid their form and their gender.
They silently walked inside as they approached the limbless man, laying on the ground unconscious.
"Did you meet him?" With a deep, fake voice, they asked Agent 879 in a bland tone.
The man's eyes parted slightly as he looked at the face of this stranger with a weak glance. Somehow, even though Kai had cut his limbs off, he didn't bleed or die. Yet, he still felt the gruesome pain assault his head every single second.
But, when he saw who that mysterious person is, his eyes widened as he paled in complete horror.
"Uh… Blah… Uh!!" He tried to speak but couldn't. All he could was utter some gibberish.
"So you did meet him? The Black Phantom, I mean."
When they said those two words, Agent 879's face changed. Who didn't know about the Black Phantom in the underworld? Certainly not him.
'T-That boy… He was the Black Phantom?!' He screamed in his head as he felt a shudder run down his spine. If he had even known for a second that it was that legendary hitman, he would've never even entertained the thought of trying to kill him.
In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that he was clouded by the excitement of meeting a strong foe that he thought he could toy with, Agent 879 should've been able to reach that conclusion purely from the sheer strength Kai had. However, greed and excitement blinded his judgment.
"He turned you into a piece of useless flesh and bones. I guess his methods didn't change after all these years. The same monster is still here, between us." The mysterious figure murmured with a slightly amused tone.
After that, they bent down and picked up the limbless man before they peered through his mind with great ease.
"He deleted any memory related to him."
After that, they threw the man away and then walked toward the computer. Clicking a few times, they smiled under the mask amusedly.
"He deleted the footage too. A perfect erasure of his trace."
After that, they turned back to Agent 879 who was shuddering on the ground as if he was having a stroke.
"You failed the mission, Agent 879 and you lost your limbs. Your usefulness to the guild is no more. By rule 5 of the Guild; be of use and you live, be a burden and you will be disposed of."
"N-No… Please!!" The moment he heard those words, he muttered with great difficulty. His voice sounded meek and barely audible. "My mother… is elderly. She… needs me…"
"The underworld isn't a place for weaklings. Love and feelings are simply weaknesses and you, Agent 879, had shown yourself why that weakness could be deadly."
After that, the mysterious figure lifted its hand before suddenly, dark matter started oozing out of its hand and crawling down to the ground before moving toward Agent 879.
"No, please… No!! Nooooo!!!! Aghhhh!!"
One second, screams filled the whole room. The next second, an eerie quietness took over the house.
After that, the mysterious figure walked out of the room, in their hand was a phone and they dialed a number.
"Renew the contract. The Black Phantom has appeared again after 5 years." Then, he cut off the call and looked at the sky.
"The underworld had been boring without your presence. Time for the show to begin again! Who will come out as a winner? Who will lose? This is going to be exciting to watch. Will the Black Phantom sit on his throne again? Or will the underworld finally consume him? I can't wait~"

Kai's trip back to his city was smooth sailing. He got on the train again and it took him more or less ten hours.
When he reached his apartment and tried to get his keys out to walk inside. The room next to him was kicked open as a seductive blonde woman rushed outside and approached Kai before she hugged him tightly.
"Kai!! I missed you so much!" Her huge breasts covered his face.
This position was something that countless men were wishing for and yet Kai didn't seem to be that into it as he pushed her away.
"I've been away for merely 2 days."
"More like 2 years~ Your dear big sister missed you so much that I can't even sleep~" She said with a loving smile as she rubbed his cheek gently.
"How was the trip? Did you have fun?"
"I simply sorted out the problem with my financials. No fun in that." Kai replied blandly as he opened the door and walked inside followed by Kaya who had a wide grin on her face.
Her mind was all flowers and good times. The struggle she felt when she couldn't see Kai for a whole day made her stay near the door, waiting for him to come back. Her mind was too occupied with him to even focus on her work.
"Fufufufufu~ Didn't I suggest paying all your expenses and in return, I get to eat your delicious food and sleep with you?~ Why are you still refusing that offer~"
For Kaya, money wasn't a problem at all. In fact, if Kai was to ever ask her to buy him anything, she would do it in a heartbeat. All he had to do was give her the green light and she will spoil him rotten till he can't live without her.
'But, I want Kai to willingly let me pamper him and take care of him~ Or it will be no fun~ I want my cute Kai to beg me for attention and love~' She thought in her head as a weird glint flashed in her eyes. Her tongue instinctively licked her rosy, plump lips as she eyed the young man in front of her.
Only she knew how much she was resisting the urge to simply push Kai down and ravage his body. From the moment she first saw his face under the bangs, she could never forget it. It was completely etched into her memory. It was simply the most beautiful thing she had ever seen.
"I don't like owing people anything," Kai replied as he walked to the kitchen and drank a bottle of water.
Meanwhile, Kaya simply made herself comfortable on the sofa as she arched her neck to look back at Kai fondly.
"Hmm, Oh! I have an idea! Let's get married!"
"..."
"If we get married, my money will be yours and so you won't have to think of anything and use it however you want. While you're at it, you can use me however you want too~~"
"I can't legally marry. And no, I won't marry you." He replied blandly as if what she said wasn't odd.
This was in fact not the first time Kaya asked his hand in marriage jokingly or not. However, he refused her offer every single time.
"Ugh! So rigid, Kai! Hmph! I hate you~" Pouting adorably, Kaya turned around and feigned anger as she sulked on the sofa.
Shaking his head, Kai quickly made a few sandwiches from what he had in the fridge. He noted down that he needed to buy groceries before he walked to the sofa and sat down.
"Here."
"Thank you, Kai~ I love you~~" With a simple hug, Kaya took the sandwich and started devouring it with a happy smile on her face. Ignoring her mature and extremely gorgeous looks that would make any man's jaw drop, she was now akin to a small squirrel enjoying a nut.
"Ahhh~ Even a simple sandwich you make tastes heavenly. How is that possible? What's your secret?"
"... *Munch* *Munch*"
"Now tell me…" Putting down the plate, Kaya turned around and hugged Kai's neck as she whispered in his ear in a breathy, seductive voice.
"I think you owe me dessert~ Something that tastes way better than anything you ever made~ Something long and hard~ Does that ring a bell?" Licking her lips again, Kaya was eager to get some kind of reaction from Kai.
If any of her subordinates saw her act like this, they would all die from a heart attack from sheer shock. Whenever she was the Archangel Kaya, she would be as cold as ice, never smiling, never showing any reaction to anything, as if life itself was disappointing in her eyes. Her methods were ruthless, gruesome, and unforgiving.
She was even nicknamed 'The Yellow Rose Of Blood' by the Ascenders of Divinity.
However, when she's around Kai, her cold attitude melts quickly and she becomes a playful, flirty woman who is deeply in love with a certain someone.
