Chapter 484 - Handling The Situation
After taking control of the entire situation, Kai asked Roselyn and Sofia to keep an eye on those people as he walked a bit farther away to ask Felice and the others the result of their operation.
He took out his device and dialed Felice's device to check on her, only to find Bastien appearing on the screen.
"Hmm?!" Kai furrowed his eyebrows and tilted his head in confusion. "Sir Bastien?"
"Yea, it's me."
"Why are you…" Kai suddenly understood what was going on and became serious, asking, "Is Felice okay?"
"She just entered the operation room not long ago."
"What is her condition?" Kai widened his eyes and subconsciously shouted.
"I am not sure. The enemy pierced through the side of her stomach with her hand, making a quite big hole there. She had used her magic to stabilize her condition until I could help her and bring her to the hospital but…"
Kai drew a gasp as he quickly replied. "I'm going to call Evan right now."
"She knew you're going to do that and asked me to tell you to avoid calling Evan Young to this place."
"Why?!" Kai gritted his teeth.
"She told me if you sent Evan Young here, she would become the center of attention because you would ask your friend to help a normal orphan girl. That way, it would be hard for her to leave this place because of the attention since the Union will interfere."
"It's better than a matter of life and death," Kai shouted in anger.
"Kai Carter… I know this is hard for you, but how about you believe in her? She has been doing anything to become your student. Like always, you need to be calm."
He clenched his teeth and said, "No. I'm going to call him right now."
"Wait—" Before Bastien could stop him, Kai already hung up and called Arnaud instead of Evan.
When Arnaud's voice rang in his ears, he hurriedly asked with a menacing tone, leaving no question or objection. "I need Rena Alberona's number right now!"
Arnaud never heard him talking like that and thought something must have happened. He instinctively replied, "Alright. I will give you her number."
Kai then hung up as Arnaud sent him contact information. Kai didn't waste even a second and called Rena immediately.
Rena appeared on her screen in the middle of the battlefield, making the background sound a bit loud. She looked at him, confused. "What do you need from me?"
"I want you to call Evan Young right now to heal Felice."
"Huh? Did the girl get injured? But if it's only a small injury, then you won't…" Rena looked at Kai's expression again and understood what was going on.
She looked down for a moment and nodded. "I see. So you want me to call him because it could be interpreted as a call from a tutor. The same applies to Felice since I'm going to accept her later. We can camouflage her importance with Arnaud and Roselyn…"
"Your daughter should be happy to see him too." Kai narrowed his eyes, saying the reward while implying that she better called him right away.
Knowing what he wanted, Rena nodded and hung up before calling another number.
In the US Base, Evan, who was mingling with his guns, raised his head when he found an incoming call.
He checked it and took a step back, wondering if he should take it. However, he took a deep breath and picked it up, asking, "Yes? Can I help you?"
"I need you to heal a person for me. Can you go to the EU Base right now? She will be in the middle of the operation at that time, but you should be able to heal her in an instant."
"…" Evan narrowed his eyes and scratched the back of his head. "Ehm…"
"Kai Carter is the one who requested it."
"Alright. I will go right away." Evan's attitude drastically changed when he heard Kai wanted to heal someone. It might be Sofia or someone important, so he would surely go there immediately if that person asked him, wanting to repay just a little bit of everything he had given to him.
"…" Even Rena was shocked by the sudden change but cared no more. "Anyway, I will send you the hospital location. If you want to know something, it's better to wait for Kai Carter to explain it to you."
"Alright." Evan nodded and searched for an airplane ticket. He booked one which was only thirty minutes away from the departure as he quickly came out of the school.
Michelle was confused about his action and asked, "Wait a minute, Evan. What happens?"
"The captain wants me there to heal someone… Probably someone important." He shrugged and left immediately. "Anyway, I need to catch up on the plane right now."
"O-oh?!" Michelle was still confused but didn't stop him anymore since Kai was the one behind it.
She pondered for a moment and decided to call Kai to see whether he would answer or not. Surprisingly, Kai's face appeared on the screen as he was in the middle of nowhere.
"Kai… What happened? Where are you?"
"I just finished handling a little problem." Kai let out a long sigh, feeling tired of getting angry all the time. He was anxious, but he had done everything he could.
"Do you need any help?"
"Well, if I'm with Tasha, I will teleport Evan to here immediately, but unfortunately, she is on the battlefield."
"What happened? It's rare for you to be flustered."
"Well… How do I explain this…" Kai gently stroked his cheek while contemplating his choice of words. "Let's just say that I am thinking about picking a student here."
"Student? As in the school's student? Are you going to kidnap this student to the US Base? It seems there is an otherworldly beauty there…"
Kai closed his eyes and shook his head helplessly. "No, it's like me and Professor Ria."
"Ah." Michelle nodded in understanding before her eyes opened as wide as possible. She became even more shocked that Kai wanted to bring a student, especially from the EU Base. "Eh? What did you say again? A student?"
"Yeah. Just say that I'm interested in this girl and see her potential. And she happened to be injured…"
"Looking at your expression, it seems to be fatal injuries." Michelle squinted her eyes and remembered Evan storming out of the school so quickly. He even used his physical abilities to arrive at the airport faster.
"Yeah. That's why I want him to be here." Kai nodded.
"Well, Professor Ria will surely be overjoyed by this news. Who would think Kai Carter is interested in someone not as his woman but his student." She smiled. "The student has become a teacher now."
Kai only brushed it off with a laugh since he hadn't finalized their student and teacher relationship.
"So, do you need any help?"
"No. I'm going to handle this alone and I just want to make sure that you're going to see hell after my return." Kai chuckled.
"Oi, oi. What kind of hell are you saying? Are you s*xually frustrated there?"
"No, no. You must have heard about Sofia and Roselyn, right?"
She recalled there was an announcement of the sudden appearance of new S Rank Magicians. And Sofia was indeed among the two.
She furrowed her eyebrows and said, "That's related to you?"
"Yeah. And now I'm dealing with that mess." Kai nodded and said, "Anyway, I can't say much regarding this matter since it's better for you to be oblivious about it right now to avoid more problems. There are only two months left, so wait for me there."
"I understand." Michelle nodded with a serious expression before asking, "Well, there are many things I want to ask, but I guess you have your own problems. I will trust you on this. Do you want to say something to the others?"
"Nah, it's fine. If I continue this call any longer, I'm afraid it will be tracked. So, I'm ending it here. Just say I miss them and don't tell them about this conversation yet."
"Okay. I miss you too…" She smiled. "Love you, see you in two months."
"Love you too." Kai smiled and finally ended the call. He took a deep breath, calming his heart down.
After a while, he turned around, saw Sofia and Roselyn in the distance, and walked to them. The moment he arrived, the atmosphere was filled with killing intent.
Even the woman shuddered under his killing intent that seemed to have killed tens of thousands of monsters. It was just different.
She raised her head in panic but couldn't move due to Sofia's Ice. The ice locked her hands and feet before planting it on the ground.
Kai bent his knees and grabbed the woman's hair, looking at her coldly. "Now that the situation has been under control… I somehow need to vent my anger, so you're perfect. I don't personally like doing it, but since you've gone too far, then I guess it's fine."
