"Kai, I have a request." Riang suddenly said as she wore her clothes and stood up.
"Go ahead and ask," Kai said absentmindedly as his mind was still thinking about Mia. But Riang's next words imdiately made him return to reality.
"Kai, I want to have a fiveso or above." Her words made him look directly into her eyes. And Kai could tell that Riang was dead serious.
"If I count all of the girls from the mortal world, including you, then there are five of you. But if you are really serious about this, then you need to convince them." Kai replied as Riang started naming all of the girls from the mortal realm.
"I can easily convince Yui and Nezuko but I have no idea about Watanabe and Kiana. I think you should talk with them." Riang replied as Kai took a deep breath.
The best thing to do for him would be to bring both Watanabe and Kiana to the mortal realm and tell them about Asahi. However, he had no idea how they would react.
"So for now, I will drop you back at the library," Kai said as he teleported them back to the library.
While Riang went to convince Nezuko and Yui, Kai started looking for Watanabe and Kiana. He found them in a few minutes and they were looking bored
Though not for long.
"Hey." Kai stood beside the grandmother and granddaughter pair as they looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Do you know this guy?" Watanabe asked Kiana as she shook her head. The two of them then looked at Kai.
"I would have laughed if Riang didn't do this already. Things don't feel funny the second ti." Kai's words made the two of them sigh before looking at him with curious expressions.
"So how did you decide to et us?" Kiana asked as Kai raised his right hand forward.
They understood what he ant as they grabbed it and the three of them vanished. Kai then took them to the mortal realm and then to the western continent.
He could feel that the two won were extrely curious about what Kai wanted to do. But they remained quiet and let Kai teleport them.
While they road the mortal realm, both Kiana and Watanabe were feeling nostalgic. But along with the nostalgia, they realized why Kai brought them here.
Especially when they entered the royal capital of the western continent.
"Kai, he is dead isn't he?" Watanabe suddenly asked as Kai stopped walking and turned back.
They were standing at the entrance of the city as the people inside or the guards paid them no attention. This was because they were already hidden under cloaking formations.
"You figured that out really quickly. I was thinking that you will find about it after noticing the changes in the city." Kai replied with an expressionless face as both of them gave him sad smiles.
"The only reason you would suddenly co and take us to the mortal realm would be if sothing major had happened here. And since we are here, it could only an that Asahi is dead." Watanabe slowly said before she took a deep breath.
Even though she was trying to look fine, she could feel her emotions being stormy. She then glanced at her granddaughter. She could see that tears were trickling down Kiana's cheeks as she stared at Watanabe's face with teary eyes.
,m "You can cry, Kiana. It will feel better." She hugged her granddaughter to her chest and Kiana slowly started sobbing.
Watanabe on the other hand had an expressionless face. She had already experienced all of this before. While her parents had died, her husband had died, and now, her child too had died.
While thinking about all this, she looked down at Kiana's head.
[ Kai, can you promise one thing? ]
[ Ask anything you want. ]
Kai imdiately replied as he had been watching the entire thing in silence. His face was expressionless as he rembered the tis he had lost soone.
It had been thousands of years ago and he had cried a lot on the occasions. But after that, it was almost as though he had lost the ability to cry alongside the ability to sleep.
Perhaps tears would sotis trickle down his cheeks but he no longer felt the relief that ca with crying. And the tears were now lessened to nothing.
So seeing a person crying in her grandmother's embrace, Kai couldn't help but rember everything. Yet he couldn't console her.
He didn't have the right to do that.
[ I want you to make sure that Kiana does not die before I perish. I want to die at least knowing that soone with a blood connection to is still alive. ]
[ I can promise you that I won't let either of you die even if it ans trapping you in a special realm alongside the rest of the girls. ]
Kai's reply took Watanabe by surprise. She took a deep breath before nodding. She had no idea whether this would ever happen but for her, it was hope.
Hope that things would last a little longer.
[ You can cry too you know. ] Kai suddenly said as Watanabe shook her head.
[ I am used to losing people. I don't feel like crying. I feel like punching sothing until I either destroy it or damage my hands in the process. ]
[ Guess what, forget anything I said. I shouldn't be giving you suggestions. Who knows what you will do. ]
Kai replied and saw Watanabe's lips quirking up a little.
She then slowly stroked Kiana's head as she stopped crying. It was her first ti feeling such pain and agony.
Kiana would get the relief crying gives but neither Watanabe nor Kai could get that. For once, both of them were jealous of a girl much younger than them.
Jealous at the fact that she could cry and feel better when they would just be roaming around in the realm of agony.
