Chapter 11- Odd Answer

"..." Eva's eyes widened to the extreme as she looked at Kai speechlessly. She couldn't utter a single word for a long while.

"Are you… serious?" She asked.

"Yes. I can heal your mother." He said with a deadly serious expression. Although Eva knew that Kai wasn't someone to joke around, she still couldn't easily believe his words. Not because she thinks he is a liar but because she was aware of her mother's condition.

Not even the best doctors in the world could treat her condition and yet Kai said he can do it. Was he a doctor? No, as far as Eva was aware.

"There isn't a cure for the illness yet, Kai. How can yo-"

"I can treat her. Now, answer my question." He said as he cut her off harshly.

'Since you seem to be showing affection toward me. What would be your choice? Would you accept and then leave or stay here and allow for your mother to die? Is it family or me?' He thought secretly.

His thoughts were nothing short of selfish and self-centered and Kai knew that very well. But, he didn't ask that question out of arrogancy or from a desire to torture Eva mentally. He just sought an answer to the question that bugged his mind: What makes a human, human? One of the answers that he found was love.

Humans are humans because they feel love for each other. They create bonds based on this particular aspect. Kai had seen before people that swore their love to each other eternally and even went to say that they will die for each other. However, the moment Kai points the gun barrel at them, they would immediately give up that facade and throw anything at him so that he can spare them including those they boasted their love to.

That's when Kai realized one important thing… The true nature of humans appears when they are on the verge of death.

'They are all fake emotions that would vanish the moment true fear takes place in their hearts.'

So, when Eva somehow barged into his life a few years ago and even declared that she loved him, Kai didn't even give her a second thought as he knew that she was like everyone else.

Now, he found the opportunity to test that idea.

"I see… You are way more amazing than I thought, Kai." Eva smiled slightly with a sad expression.

"..."

"My answer to your question is: please help my mother." She said.

'Hmm, as I pred-' As Kai was about to reach a conclusion, Eva continued her words.

"After that, can you please kill me?" She said.

"Hm?" Kai's eyebrows raised in slight surprise.

"As I said before, I will never let you go ever again. The five years you disappeared in were hell for me. Life became devoid of any color and I couldn't even find joy in things I used to enjoy doing. That's worse than death in my opinion. So, if I have to leave you, it better be because my life is over." She said.

"..."

"And, I would feel blessed if I die by your hands."

Kai stared directly at the smiling girl for a long time. His expression was the usual but something flashed in his eyes for a second before he sighed.

"You are very dumb." He said.

"Huh?! That's mean!" Eva said with shock before she pouted. "I know I'm not as smart as you but I still have a good head between my shoulders. I can even pass the hardest college exams with a perfect score if I want to. Hmph!"

Turning around, Kai started walking to the door that led down from the school's rooftop.

"This weekend, prepare a plane to your home country."

"Huh? Why?"

"Don't you want to help your mother?"

"Y-Yes. But, a-are you real-" Eva rubbed her fingers together hesitantly.

"As I said before, as long as you don't annoy me, I have no reason to try and control what you do and that includes where you decide to live. Consider my help this time to be for the sake of old times."

After saying that, Kai left the rooftop without waiting for Eva to say anything.

"Tsk… Was I supposed to do this?" As he walked through the corridors of the school, he murmured to himself.

Usually, Kai wouldn't go out of his way to help someone no matter who they were. But, for some reason, the answer that Eva gave him completely changed his plan. He could only admit that it surprised him.

'Why would she go this far? Isn't she supposed to show her true colors? Isn't her family more important to her than a stranger?' He asked himself.

However, no answer came to mind and so he simply didn't try to think about it anymore. He lacked the knowledge to answer those questions.

As Kai continued walking silently, his eyes looked back for a brief moment without showing any weird gestures.

'Someone… No, some people are following me.' He thought as he looked ahead and then changed direction and instead headed to the area behind the school building.

Since people were still eating lunch, that place was empty. When he reached there, he stood in his place and looked back.

"You can show up, guys." He said calmly.

A second later, a group of 5 people appeared out of the corner. Each one of them had a menacing look on their face and muscular builds. It didn't take a genius to determine that they were a bunch of bad guys.

"Hahahaha! How did you notice us?" The one in the middle asked with a wide grin.

"It's cuz you're too big, boss. You stand out like a fuckin' sore thumb." The one next to him who was smoking a cigarette said.

"Hahahaha! I agree!"

"Shut up y'all! Let's focus on our little friend here."

'So he won't even bother to appear himself and instead sent these idiots. Well, not that it matters.' Kai thought.

"You know boy! Even though my fellows here look like typical bullies, we aren't really bullies! But, you seem to have angered someone you should not, and now you're paying the price for it. Hahahaha! So, don't take it to heart!"

As he said so, he approached Kai and then stared at him menacingly. Although Kai was still taller than him, the bully didn't seem to be that bothered about it.

"Guys, don't beat him up yet. I want to give him a few punches since our friend here doesn't seem that scared."

Then, without any warning, the bully sent a flying punch toward, Kai's stomach. The latter didn't bother to move as he stared directly at the bully without flinching.

The punch hit its target. But, oddly enough, it didn't even make a sound nor did it show any change in Kai's posture or even made him grunt. Instead…

"Agh!! My hand! What the fuck did I punch?! Are you wearing metal under your clothes?!" The bully said as he grabbed his arm. A huge red spot has appeared on his knuckles.

'What the hell?! My hand almost broke from the hit?!'

"You hit me. The camera registered that." Kai said as he pointed at the camera that was pointing at them. Then, he looked back down and continued.

"From here on, what I will do is simply 'self-defense'."

"Huh?" The bully was confused at first.

But, before he could even react, he felt something smash against his face with overwhelming force.

*SLAP*

His neck bent to the side as he was sent flying like a ragdoll. When he landed on the ground, his face was buried in the dirt. He lost consciousness immediately.

'I don't think I can make a slap any weaker than that. Tsk, annoying.' Kai thought as he looked at his hand with a blank expression.

"W-W-W-What?!" The other four bullies looked at what happened as their jaws dropped from sheer shock.

"What the fuck?! Am I dreaming?!"

"Oi… How is that even possible?! Boss weighs almost 100 Kilograms!!"

Fear struck the group as they started retreating back.

"You guys…"

"Heeee!!!" The moment they heard Kai's voice, their faces grew even paler. One of them even lost consciousness on the spot. Immediately, they all tried to run away as fast as they could.

"Sorry, I can't let you remember what you saw." Kai thought as his eyes widened slightly.

The same weird, orange-colored energy surrounded his body for a split second before it flew toward the four bullies, piercing through their heads and making them stop dead in their tracks.

"Huh? What happened?"

"Hm? Weird, I can't remember anything. Why are we here? Weren't we eating lunch?"

"Well, let's go back, the lunchtime is almost over."

"True. I'm very hungry."

Seeing their reactions, Kai turned around and left as if nothing happened.

"I forgot to eat lunch…"
