Chapter 6- Mischievous Eva (Part 2)

"Huh?" Taro didn't understand what she meant.

"I said the arm or the leg? Choose." Eva repeated as she approached him slowly.

"What do you mean?"

"I guess it's pointless to ask someone with a brain that slow to comprehend."

After saying that, Eva's silhouette vanished from where she stood as if she was a ghost. Taro's eyes widened as he looked around.

What he didn't notice was that Eva had reappeared behind him. Then, she grabbed Taro's arm with one hand.

*CRACK*

With a simple squeeze, a crisp and loud cracking sound echoed in the whole room followed by a blood-curdling scream that could shake the souls.

"AAAAAGGHHHHH!!" Taro quickly grabbed his hand and fell down to the ground, tossing and turning as saliva leaked out of his mouth and his eyes cried endless tears. His arm was bent to a shape that should be impossible.

"How dare a waste like you call him trash? Huh? Are you perhaps implying that you're better than him? Do you even comprehend what kind of nonsense you're spouting? Every human is a complete waste of oxygen compared to Kai." She said with chilling cold eyes as she watched Taro suffer.

"I know that Kai won't allow me to do this. But, I can't accept hearing someone insult him. I will kill every person that dares to insult Kai. No, I will skin them alive and then turn them into dog treats."

After saying that, she lifted her leg and then ruthlessly stomped on Taro's left leg, breaking it easily as if it was made of thin wooden sticks.

"AAAAGHHHH!!!" The screams increased a notch as Taro's face paled completely. However, he didn't last long and lost consciousness a few seconds after.

"Tsk, wasteful trash. Touching you makes me feel disgusted. Only Kai is allowed to touch my body. Human waste as you should just burn and die and then get thrown in the trash where you belong."

After that, Eva bent down and pointed her fingers at Taro's forehead. A second later, the tips of her finger shone with a visible orange light that quickly turned into a small lightning bolt that moved from her fingers to Taro's forehead, piercing it easily.

"That should make him forget everything that happened and think that he got injured during training." Murmuring to herself, Eva stood up and walked out of the storage room before she closed the door.

"Thank you for your purchase!" A female cashier said with a strained smile as she handed Kai a bag of groceries.

The latter nodded his head and took the bag before leaving.

'Knowing that Eva… She probably dealt with that guy by now. Tsk, she better not cause any trouble that I need to get involved in.' Kai thought as he walked through the streets. From a stranger's perspective, Kai was a tall guy with a lean build that looked quite perfect even under a school uniform. However, the problem lay in his face which was covered completely by his black hair. That's why, most students considered him a weird person and stayed away.

But, that was Kai's intention from the start. He didn't want to create any relationships with anyone and simply spent his time alone. Even his life outside the school was isolated from people.

As he walked through the streets, he found himself in front of an apartment complex that was average in size.

"Good evening, Miss Lola." As he passed through the main gates, he found a middle-aged woman sweeping the dust with a bored look.

"Oh, Kai? Welcome back." She said with a casual yet friendly tone. Out of all her renters, Kai was by far the least annoying as he never makes noise, never complains, and never brings girls with him to his apartment.

The boy then walked to his room which was on the third floor.

"Hm?" The moment he reached the door, he halted in his place for a split second.

'Someone entered my room.' He thought as he examined the door handle.

Kai usually leaves the doorknob tilted by 3 degrees whenever he leaves his room or comes back. However, from a mere look, he could see that the doorknob wasn't as he left it that morning.

'Is it an enemy?' Closing his eyes, he could sense a presence inside, walking here and there as if they were searching for something.

Readying himself, Kai opened the door and walked inside as if he didn't notice the abnormality while secretly waiting for an ambush.

But, what welcomed him was a completely different sight…

"Oh, welcome back!" Eva smiled as she welcomed Kai.

"... What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I will be living here from now on."

"..." Kai stared at her with a deadpan expression.

"I forgot to tell you, tehe." The girl added with a clumsy expression.

A few seconds passed before the door to the room was opened and then Eva was thrown outside before the door was closed shut again.

"Wait! Kai, I was joking! I was just joking! I actually have my own house in this city. But, I wanted to surprise you with a small prank!"

"Go home." From the other side, Kai replied as he took his uniform off.

"Uh, can I at least spend some time here? It's not against the rules, is it? Please, pretty please, I will behave myself, you won't even feel my presence."

"No."

On the other side, Kai was already feeling a headache from this situation. Eva was making too much noise and if someone was to hear them talking and then see her outside his house, Kai would have to deal with a misunderstanding which was a huge hassle.

"*Sniff* I understand, I will leave." Tears welled up in Eva's eyes as she stood up. "At least, can I get my purse? I left it inside."

Kai sighed and looked around the room. It wasn't that big, barely enough to fit a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, and a bedroom. However, Kai makes sure to keep it squeaky clean no matter what. There is nothing worse than a dirty house in his dictionary.

His eyes eventually fell on the purse which was on the sofa. So, he picked it up and opened the door to hand it to Eva.

"Uh…" Eva was slightly hopeful that Kai would let her in but when she saw the purse, her hopes were completely crushed. Well, that's what she thought.

*Click*

At that moment, the room that was two doors away from them suddenly opened and someone came outside.

'Tsk.' Kai who noticed it before Eva could quickly pulled Eva from her hand and closed the door. He pushed her against the door and put his hand on her mouth.

"Shh." He signaled with his other hand to keep quiet.

However, the girl didn't hear his words at all. Instead, her face blushed violently as she looked at Kai.

'Kai is too close! He is too close! I can't! Uh, he smells so good! I missed this smell so much. Am I in a dream? I'm dreaming, right? Even if it's a dream, I don't mind. I'm being blessed.' She thought as she gazed dreamily at Kai, admiring his face from up close.

'Not now of all times.' Kai thought as he listened to the footsteps of a person approaching his door. Then, the door was knocked.

"Kai, are you inside?" It was that of what seemed to be a woman.

'A woman?' Eva, who was enjoying her dream world, suddenly woke up from it at the mere sound of a woman knocking on Kai's door.

"Follow me, quickly." After that, Kai grabbed Eva's hand and pulled her inside the house before he made her hide inside the bathroom.

"Don't move and don't make a sound if you don't want to end up in big trouble." He ordered Eva before he closed the door.

However, the latter wasn't even bothered by his warning as her mind was completely focused on something else.

'A woman? Why is a woman knocking on Kai's door? Is she the landlord? No, her voice is different. Is she his mother? No, as far as I know, Kai is an orphan. Then, is it… Is it…' Even in her thoughts, Eva couldn't utter that word at all.

Her face turned dead cold as she looked at the door.

'Who is she?'

On the other side, Kai opened the door only to be met with the sight of a gorgeous woman in her 30s. She had beautiful, blonde hair and a pair of sharp green eyes. However, her biggest feature was the two huge things tightly pressed under her shirt. Even with her shirt buttoned up, the buttons were stretched to their limit without an apparent effort from the woman.

"What is it, Kaya?" Kai asked as he stared directly at the woman's eyes.

"I heard a noise so I thought you finally came back." The woman named Kaya said with a small calm smile.

"School is over for the day."

"I see…" The woman's eyes then shifted slightly to look inside the house.

"Hmm, can I come inside since you seem to be free?"
