Chapter 194 Chapter 194- Music Palace (Part 3)
Kai and Kaya continued their banter until Eva finally arrived and knocked on the door.
"Tsk, Kiddo is already here. I thought she was going to stay longer." Kaya murmured to herself as she sat down.
Kai walked toward the door before he opened it. Instantly, Eva barged inside and gave him a peck on the cheek before she glared.
"You, saggy b.r.e.a.s.t.s! You"re so dead!!" She said as she rushed toward Kaya.
"Hey, hey, relax Kiddo." Kaya jumped back.
"Stealing my shampoo while I was taking a shower. How did you do that? Huh?"
"I don"t know what you"re talking about, kiddo. Shampoo? What shampoo?" Kaya asked with an innocent look.
"I"m sure snuck one of your little animals into my room to steal the shampoo," Eva said as she was about to form multiple swords in the air.
"*Whistle* Don"t know what you"re talking about," Kaya replied.
"I"m going to slice you up."
"I want to see you try, Kiddo."
"You two, stop messing around," Kai said as he sighed.
"Ok. Sorry." (x2)
As Kai turned around and walked toward the kitchen, his eyes noticed something stuck in the window that made him squint.
"Hm?"
Walking towards it, Kai pulled the object which turned out to be a few tickets for the concert that night. However, the difference is that they aren"t just VIPs… They were VVIPs.
"Hm?" Kaya and Eva noticed the tickets and were quite confused.
"Those are the VVIPs? Huh? Where did you get them?" Eva asked.
"VVIPs? What"s that?"
"These are very exclusive tickets that only the artist or very close people from them would give out to very special people."
"What the h.e.l.l? Then why does Kai have one?"
As the two conversed, Kai kept looking at the tickets. His eyes were sharp and cold but also confused. Even after their conversation, Kai still didn"t understand what Aria truly wanted. She said she wanted to die and yet also was willing to give him tickets to her show to watch her die.
What changed her mind after all these years?
Kai didn"t believe it was out of guilt. No, he wanted to believe that it wasn"t out of guilt as that would only make his thoughts even more chaotic than they already were.
And then there was the matter of his father, the man that he hated the most in this world. His plans were very alarming. From what he knew, there wasn"t a single move that man did that didn"t result in some kind of disaster.
He was a man who didn"t care about the consequences of his actions as long as he got what he wanted. His methods were so brutal that even Kai found himself in disgust at it.
However, at the same time, Kai was glad that he at least finally got a lead on how to get back to that place.
"If he"s truly controlling Divinity then he will have to show up sooner or later."
Slowly, a plan was forming in Kai"s head as to how he could catch that b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Not only to inflict upon him all the suffering imaginable in this world but to also perhaps find more leads about his sickness.
As far as he could remember, the symptoms started appearing a while after he left that place.
"It could be a possibility that it has something to do with him."
"Kai?"
As he was having such thoughts, a snap from Eva"s finger woke him up. "Are you ok, darling?"
"Mhm, I was just thinking about these tickets. I didn"t see them there when I first entered the room."
"Weird… Maybe their owner forgot them here when he checked out?"
"How does that even make sense? We"re the first to check into these rooms. Also, those tickets are priceless." Eva thought as she thought about it before she looked at Kai.
Although she didn"t want to suspect it, she could only think that Kai must"ve found them somehow.
"Uh, well, if it"s Kai, then there is no problem." She shrugged.
"Well, there is no point in overthinking it. We might as well use these tickets."
"That"s a good idea, Kiddo. Well, just keep the other tickets just in case we get kicked out of the VVIP section or the owner comes back for them."
***
A few hours later, the night finally descended and the time for the concert approached.
Kai looked in the mirror before he adjusted his tie. He was wearing a black elegant suit and black shoes. He didn"t have to change his appearance since the VVIP section was only for them. Instead, he simply brushed his hair to the side, showing a little bit of his face.
Then, he walked to the door and opened it, only to find Kaya and Eva waiting.
"Hey, beauties, are you going to the concert? Let"s go together." As he was about to speak, Kai heard a voice coming from the other side of the corridor.
Looking there, the two girls sighed. A man with a wide grin on his face approached them.
"G.o.dd.a.m.n, you two are smoking hot. What do you think? We can have a few drinks in the after party." As he was about to touch Kaya"s shoulder, a hand grabbed his wrist tightly.
"H-Huh?" As he was about to glare at the culprit, his face immediately froze. An incredibly handsome man had grabbed his wrist with a cold glare.
"Y-You…"
"Scram," Kai said one word before he pushed him away.
The man quickly grabbed his wrist before he scurried away.
Kai looked at the man for a while until he disappeared before he finally shifted to the two girls that were poring holes into his face.
When he looked at them, the two had dazed expressions on their faces as if they completely forgot where they were.
"What?" He asked.
"You decided to show your face…" Eva said, still dazed.
"So handsome…" Kaya was on the verge of drooling.
"The long hair is annoying sometimes. Since there won"t be any threat tonight, I decided to slide it to the side." He replied as he gave their clothes a glance.
Eva wore a beautiful red dress with golden engravings that accentuated her graceful figure. Meanwhile, Kaya went for a dark blue dress and a beautiful flowery necklace around her neck. Both of them looked absolutely stunning.
"What do you think, Kai?" Eva asked.
"You two look gorgeous." He replied with a nod.
Those few words alone made the two blush furiously.
"Let"s go." He said.
The trio then left the hotel and walked toward the concert arena. From the outside, the Music Palace looked gigantic.
The walls were tens of meters high with a wide screen covering most of the exterior that broadcasted whatever was happening inside. It was akin to a heavenly coc.o.o.n for Music enthusiasts.
Inside this arena, hundreds of thousands of people were cheering and screaming as they waited for the star to appear on stage. Highlights were moving wildly, flashing and twisting like an endless stream of light.
"Woah, the place is definitely wild! Look at the posters." Kaya said with a whistle.
The trio reached their destination quickly and stood in line waiting. Although the place was bustling with people, it didn"t take long for them to reach the entrance since the event was well organized.
"Tickets please."
Kai handed the tickets to the man before he waited. When the latter read the tickets, his facial expression changed for a second.
"Are these…"
"Yes."
"I see. Please wait a moment, esteemed guest." The man"s tone changed as he turned around and made a call.
After that, he turned around and smiled at Kai and the two girls.
"Please, follow me from here."
After that, the man guided them inside the arena. However, instead of taking the normal route, he diverged with them toward a quieter, more luxurious-looking section of the arena. The trio saw many celebrities and high-status personnel as they walked. Some of them even greeted Eva since she knew them from when she was still working.
Eventually, they ended up in front of a two doors room that seemed to be secluded from everywhere else.
"This is your VVIP room. It has the closest view of the concert. There is also a bar, a jacuzzi, and a salon if you want to make yourselves comfortable.
The man explained as he opened the door.
"A jacuzzi for a concert? People really love lavish stuff." Kaya thought as she looked around the interior of the room.
Eventually, their eyes landed on the wide windows on the other side of the room that had a very close view of the stage. It was made to look as if the singer was singing to the people there rather than to everyone in the arena.
"Woah! I like this!" Eva murmured as she approached the window and looked outside. Not only could she see the stage but also the huge expanse of people around it, cheering and screaming.
"Please, make yourself comfortable and enjoy the concert."
