Chapter 12:- Traces Of The Phantom?

Chapter 12- Traces Of The Phantom

Meanwhile, in a far-off place, in another country, a beautiful, blonde-haired woman was walking through the corridors of a massive skyscraper. Her face was as cold as it was mesmerizing. Her aura was also distant yet elegant to an unbelievable degree.

Reaching a particular door, she walked inside without knocking. Looking around, the place was akin to a room from 1,000 years in the future with weird technology. Huge screens with complicated data inside of them, machines of all kinds, and stacks of paper filled with information.

This was one of the more important areas of the Divinity HQ and also the main reason for their quick rise to the top of the underworld.

"You\'re finally here, Kaya!" From behind a desk, a voice called for Kaya with an annoyed tone.

"It\'s been a while, Elu," Kaya said coldly as she walked around the desk.

"Where have you been?! It\'s boring to death here. You think I like to stay behind a screen the whole day?" The person named Elu was a little girl who looked barely 12 years of age.

She wore a lab coat and had a small lollipop in her mouth along with a pair of headphones on her neck.

Elu was one of the smartest people in the world with an IQ that exceeded 200. She was the brain of Divinity and the one behind all major plans they had. Her analytical abilities and great coding skills made her an invaluable asset for Divinity.

Kaya smiled slightly and replied in a mysterious tone. "I have been… having some \'fun\'."

In her mind, the silhouette of a young boy flashed for a second before it vanished.

"Tsk, is it that boy you told me about? Poor guy, getting targeted by you." Elu said with a sigh.

*PINCH*

"Ouch! Ouch! My cheek! My cheek!"

"What did you say, my dear Elu?"

"N-Nothing! L-Let me go! I\'m sorry, I\'m really sorry!!" As she tried to get rid of the two fingers pinching her soft cheek, Elu started apologizing profusely.

"Anyway, what did you call me for? It\'s not that easy to take a flight all the way here whenever you want me."

"I know, I know. But, this time… It\'s serious."

Immediately, Kaya\'s face turned cold as she dropped down any acts. When it comes to work, Kaya is very serious and doesn\'t like to joke around.

"I found some leads to where The Black Phantom is," Elu said.

"...!!!" Kaya\'s eyes widened slightly as she stared at ELu silently for a good 3 seconds. "Are you serious?"

"Yeah, although I\'m not sure. But, after analyzing countless faces and collecting data from the few pics we have of The Black Phantom, I was able to narrow down the area of where he could be at the moment."

\'The Black Phantom? For how long has Divinity been searching for him? It\'s one of the highest priorities for the data team.\'

"So, what did you find?"

"If my data is right and it always is, he is in C-Country."

"C-Country? You mean…"

"Yes, he\'s in the same country you live in. That\'s why I contacted you." Elu said as she took the lollipop out of her mouth.

"To think such a coincidence will happen. Interesting."

"What are you thinking of, Kaya? Don\'t you dare even entertain the thought of searching for him yourself? I called you here simply to warn you and also to show you what I find in case you stumble upon him."

"Hm? But, The Black Phantom is a legend and one of the biggest goals that Divinity tries to achieve. Finding him and recruiting him will be like hitting the lottery a hundred times."

"Don\'t joke around, Kaya. That guy isn\'t something we can handle. His strength is far beyond what my computers could even handle. As far as I\'m concerned, he can be as strong as a Virtue or an Ophanim. He is a monster through and through. Mind you, he is potentially no older than 17 years of age and the data I have was from 5 years ago when he was merely 12 years old. No one knows how strong he became now."

"...17 years of age, huh?" Kaya murmured as her mind wandered somewhere else for a second.

"Snap out of it, you big breasts for brains!" Elu yelled as she slapped Kaya on the chest.

"Hm?"

*PINCH*

"Ouch! Ouch! I\'m sowwy! I\'m eally sowwy!! You will break my cheeks!!"

\'Sigh, what did I even think of? There is no way he could be The Black Phantom. Tsk, well, it\'s pointless to worry about it.\'

"Ah, by the way, did you do what I asked of you?"

"Hm, you mean the phone thingy? Yeah, I did some research. Although I was able to identify who the owner of the phone is, I couldn\'t hack it. It\'s completely protected. Here." Clicking on a few things on her computer, a data panel appeared on the screen.

"The girl is Eva Lavine. The daughter of the Lavine family, a behemoth in the world of technology. Age 17. Height: 169 cm. Blood Type: AB. Three sizes-"

"Eva Lavine? What?!" Kaya blinked a few times as she turned the screen to look at it properly.

Her eyes were quickly glued to the picture of the girl.

\'Tsk, why the fuck is a bitch like her after my Kai? I will kill her! No, I will torture her to death!!\' Kaya thought as she clenched her fist. A cold, domineering aura surrounded her body.

"Hey! You will break my desk! Also, why did you want to know such info?"

"Tsk, it\'s nothing. I already got what I needed to know. See you later."

"Hey, Kaya, wait!"

However, the woman didn\'t listen and left the lab immediately.

\'Eva Lavine, you pronounced your own death.\'

"Sigh, that woman sure likes to be a headache. Well, whatever, I will just watch Drama and then sleep."

When Kai returned to the class, he sat down on the chair only to notice everyone looking in a particular direction. His eyes instinctively looked there too and weirdly enough, he saw Edward, who was staring at him too with a shocked expression as if he saw a unicorn.

\'Huh?! Why is he here?! Did those idiots not beat him up?!\' His expression screamed.

On the other hand, Kai didn\'t bother with that at all. When he was walking back to class, he made a detour to the principal office for a little task and then came here immediately.

\'This should help him understand what will happen.\' Turning to look at the window, he went back to his own world.

A few minutes later, Eva came back. She looked as usual on the surface but inside, she was having the turmoil of a lifetime.

\'Kai said he will help me!! Does this mean he cares about me? I mean, this is the only logical conclusion possible. He even said \'for old times\' sake\'. That means he loves me! Yes, definitely! Kai… Kai…\' Even though it had been almost half an hour since their conversation, she was still far from calm.

If one looks closely, one could even see hearts drawn inside Eva\'s pupils. This was the happiest she\'s ever been.

If they were alone, Eva was sure she would\'ve not been able to bear not hugging Kai and fawning all over him like an affectionate cat enjoying her master\'s attention.

At that moment, Edward stood up and walked to the front of the class before he faced everyone with a confident smile.

"Ehem, can I have everyone\'s attention please?"

Immediately, the whole class looked at him.

"You see, I couldn\'t tell you about it this morning. But, I decided to make an official statement. I and Miss Eva over there are betrothed and are going to marry after graduating high school."

The bombshell was dropped and made the whole class erupt with gossip and whispers. Everyone looked at Eva and Edward with apprehensive eyes. Mostly because they didn\'t think their angel Eva was the fiance of that weird handsome man.

But, purely from an aesthetic viewpoint, no one would disagree that they both fit each other. A beautiful man and woman that would fit in a piece of art together.

Well, everyone except two people, one of them didn\'t even care at all. The other, on the other hand, had to use all their effort not to stand up and go beat the handsome man to death right there and then.

\'Kill him! I want to kill him! No, killing him is far too forgiving him! Should I do it now? Should I? I mean, he is going to die anyway and Kai said he will eliminate him. Yes, this makes sense. Let\'s end his life here.\' Her eyes turned blank as she coldly stared at Edward with bad intentions oozing out of her every pore.

But, Kai, who noticed that, sighed and then pulled out his phone.

"Don\'t do anything stupid. Let me deal with him. You will be a hindrance."
