Chapter 88- a Father Figure (Part 1)

The two eventually reached the market and walked inside. Because of the sudden quarantine in the city, the supermarket was empty except for the workers that looked like they wanted to be anywhere else except there.

However, when they saw the two women walking inside, their faces lit-up up. Since most of them are guys, Eva and Kaya were quickly swarmed by the clerks.

"Hell, how can we help you today?"

"Do you need anything from the vegetable aisle?"

"We have a discount on salads."

They all said in union, making the two girls look at them with weird expressions on their faces.

"No need. We know what to buy." Eva denied them before she started walking away. As for Kaya, she smiled and said.

"You boys really need to change your tactics." She said with a mischievous wink before she followed Eva.

"Tsk, why do they all act the same way? Do they share the same brain cell?" Eva grumbled with an annoyed expression.

No matter where Eva went, she will always be ogled at by all men. Even those that approach her all have bad intentions and it was all apparent in their eyes. The sheer disgust she harbors toward those kinds of people is truly deep.

"I don\'t really care what they think. If anyone dares to cross their boundaries, I usually break all their limbs. But, I don\'t come across such people that often." Kaya replied as she picked up a potato, examining it thoroughly before throwing it in the basket.

"Easy for you to do that since you aren\'t well-known. I, on the other hand, need to keep in mind whether killing a certain idiot will make a bunch of other idiots try to take revenge and that starts a huge chain of annoying events that waste my time."

"It\'s your choice, kido. You made a mistake the moment you involved yourself in the world of celebrities. Now, your trouble will easily affect Kai if you aren\'t too careful."

"Sigh, I know. You don\'t need to tell me. But, I\'m working hard to keep them at bay. Look around you, did anyone recognize me?" Eva asked as she pointed at the store clerks.

Kaya\'s eyes squinted when she realized that detail before she looked at the men. The moment her eyes made contact with theirs, they quickly turned around and feigned work. However, that wasn\'t what she focused on, she instead captured their reactions.

They did indeed try to hit on Eva but they didn\'t seem to realize who she was.

"You\'re manipulating their minds?" Kaya asked as she reached that conclusion.

"Yeah, I did that the moment I arrived in this city. It\'s annoying but I was able to make them not recognize me or it would\'ve been chaos around here."

"Doesn\'t that drain a lot of Origin power from you?"

"It does. But, I will never allow anyone to affect Kai\'s quiet life within my scope of capabilities." Eva sighed as she thoughtfully picked up the rest of the ingredients written down on the list.

"Interesting… You really work hard for someone that will eventually get thrown away." Kaya said with a smirk.

"Will you shut up and lift the basket properly? Be a good servant for once in your life." Eva\'s tone was filled with sarcasm.

"I will drop this basket on your head."

"Kai said \'No fighting\'. Unless you want to face his anger, don\'t start it now."

Just hearing that, Kaya flinched slightly before she went silent. Both of them knew that Kai would really not spare them if they really fought.

Luckily, the rest of the grocery trip ended peacefully and the two were able to leave the supermarket without any problems arising.

As the two walked through the street, a person came walking from the opposite direction. They wore long coats and a hat on their heads. They didn\'t look that abnormal at first glance.

However, Eva felt suspicious of them at first glance. So, with a natural and swift movement, she touched Kaya\'s sleeve as a warning. The latter already noticed it too but she didn\'t seem weirdly alerted. Instead, she had a frown on her face.

At that moment, the mysterious man bumped shoulders with Kaya before he said.

"My apologies." And continued walking away.

Eva watched his silhouette as he vanished around the corner.

"Who is he?"

"A messenger. They work under an acquaintance of mine." Kaya said as she pulled something out of her pocket.

It was a red letter with a red stamp that closed it. Although the color was very close to that of blood, the letter didn\'t look that intimidating.

"A red letter too… Sigh, this is gonna be a pain in the ass." Murmuring quietly, Kaya stopped and looked at Eva.

"I will need to leave now to deal with a matter. Tell Kai that I will be late at night or maybe tomorrow."

Eva nodded her head and didn\'t try to pry any further as she thought it was none of her business. Kaya was an Archangel so secretive meetings like these were very normal in her life.

"Don\'t worry, I will make sure to \'Enjoy\' my time with Kai to the fullest," Eva said with a smug face.

"Tsk, I swear, if you try to do anything, I will make you lick my boots every morning." Kaya threatened with a glare.

"Hahahaha, goodbye, old hag." Eva\'s demeanor irritated Kaya even more but the latter could only swallow her anger and turn around to leave.

\'You\'re lucky I can\'t ignore this letter.\' Thinking so, Kaya vanished from vision.

A few hours later, Kaya reached Divinity HQ which was located in A-country, precisely in the capital named Oro, the city of gold.

This name was derived from the fact that this city was the biggest and richest city in the world. When the sun sets, the city becomes a golden beacon of light from afar and that\'s why people called it \'The city of gold\'.

"You really don\'t have any regard for your duties, do you, Kaya?" A stern voice spoke to Kaya behind a huge desk.

The voice belonged to an old man, nearing his 80s. He had a rather well-trimmed beard and elegant clothes that made his aged looks seem dignified. He had a pipe in his hand that he smoked from.

"..." Kaya held herself from sighing. "I\'m doing my job properly."

"Do I look like a fool to you, Kaya? I already know that you\'re spending your days lazing around. An archangel like you should be focused on training to get stronger and surpass me. You\'re wasting your potential, for god sake." The man replied with a stern yet also worried tone.

She was now sitting in a huge, luxurious office on one of the higher floors of the building and the man she was talking to was Mikayla Raullot. He is one of the legendary 7 Virtues in Divinity, the previous patriarch of the Raullot family, and a man that was nicknamed \'Sword God\' for his horrifying skills with all kinds of swords. He was also… Kaya\'s foster father.
