Chapter 736: A Party In His Honor

The following day, in the tower of Kiba.

"Kirstie is out of danger."

Zed said as he stepped out of the lab and found Rebecca fidgeting. 

"A few days of rest here, and she will recover her lost life force."

Rebecca"s face brightened, and the stress in her body disappeared.

Her daughter was safe! 

"Thank you!" Rebecca said with utmost grat.i.tude. 

"There"s no need for that," Zed replied while stepping past her. "Just don"t forget what you promised."

"I will never forget," Rebecca whispered, her voice not even audible to her. "And even if not for Kirstie, I would have done anything for you… anything!"

She looked at his back, her eyes moist. They were so close, yet the gap between them was as vast as an ocean.

If only she could cross that gap and find a place in his heart. 

If only…

On the side, Katherine sighed. 

Now that her status has changed to a slave, she couldn"t even tell Zed to make up with his mother and move on.

"The way to Kiba"s heart is through his c.o.c.k… but what about Zed?"

She wondered.

… ... ... 

A few minutes later, Zed arrived on his personal floor and transformed into Kiba while sitting near the window.

He swiped in the air, and a screen popped up, projecting an island surrounded by swirls of elemental storms.

"Stormseal Island... The one whom I owe my life is caged there, but not for very long."

Kiba closed his eyes.

"I always return favors, and I will do it this time as well, father."

Swis.h.!.+

Just then, the s.p.a.ce above his chest flashed with golden lightning, and a small figure landed on him. 

A pair of hands tightly closed on his eyes, ensuring he couldn"t open them.

"Oh my! Who"s here?!" 

Kiba acted nervously. 

"The Devil! Guess my name, and I shall let you go!" 

The figure tried to change her sweet voice to that of a malevolent devil. 

"But remember, if you are wrong, you have to blast the Earth! And if you are right, you have to blast the Sun!"

Now Kiba was really nervous. 

As much as he enjoyed blasting things, there was a limit! 

But the one above him didn"t understand that! 

"Cough! Cough!" 

Kiba made coughing sounds. 

"Isn"t there any other alternative than blasting things?"

"Nope!" The figure shook her head. "And I"m the one who calls the shots here, so don"t try to bargain!"

Now Kiba was in a dilemma. 

He might be one of the most dangerous persons on the planet, but he was helpless in front of the little devil. 

She was far too lovely for him to say no to her for anything.

It might be a near-impossible task, but once he agreed, he would risk his life to get her what she wanted!

But if he agreed, it was death to the entire world! 

"Ah!" 

Kiba"s mind flashed with enlightenment. 

"Miss Devil! I sense the presence of your mother!" 

"Mama?!" 

The little figure was frightened. 

She instantly wrapped her hands around Kiba"s neck and said, "We have to run away now! Hurry before she catches us!"

In front of her mother, her speed was nothing. So, she could only rely on him in times of danger! 

He has always protected her!

"But I didn"t answer your question!" 

Kiba opened his eyes and looked at the one he loved the most – his Hope.

"It doesn"t matter!" She replied while thinking of her terrifying mother – the true devil. 

"If you say so!" Kiba enveloped themselves with teleportation force and disappeared.

On another floor, Agatha was training alongside Ashlyn when she suddenly sneezed. 

"Why do I feel like a scapegoat?" She wondered. 

… ... ...

Kiba and Hope arrived on the terrace. 

"Phew~ Mama wouldn"t catch us here!" Hope was relieved as she noticed the floating clouds. "We are safe!"

Kiba nodded while suppressing a smile. 

"You are the best, papa!" Hope kissed him on the cheek. "You always protect me from mama!"

Kiba nodded again.

… ... ...

Far away, in another area of the City of Arcadia.

The mayor – Douglas Bolton – was in a good mood as he supervised the party preparations at his estate. 

He was what people called a miser, but today he had fully opened his pocket and spent over a million in decorations alone. Another million were reserved for food and drink, and one can imagine the scales of the party from this.

"Even a hundred million are nothing if I succeed today!"

Douglas rubbed his hand excitedly. 

He turned to his manager and said, "You better be right that this would make him happy. Because if it doesn"t, you are going to be sad for a very long time."

"Rest a.s.sured, sir, tonight"s party would make him more than happy!" 

The manager was confident. 

"Not only have we invited celebrities, but we have also invited every important figure from nearby cities! He"s bound to be impressed by your efforts!"

Douglas smiled and turned back to the decorations that could be only called slanderous. 

The walls were painted with pa.s.sionate lesbians, while statues of women in heat were placed in strategic places. Then there was a small stage meant for strip dance, accompanied by a bar exclusive for the chief guest of the party.

If one didn"t know it better, they might misunderstand that it was some profane event to celebrate a s.e.x-starved devil!

"No one has done this for him, so he would definitely be impressed!" 

Douglas was confident, even if not for his manager"s words. Just then, he noticed something amiss and turned back to the manager.

"Where are the strippers?" Douglas demanded.

"Sir, you have to build suspense for him," The manager explained. "The party isn"t even started, and you want to bring one of the main attractions!"

"Idiot, who do you think we are celebrating today?!" 

Douglas asked while slapping the manager.

"Kiba! He has f.u.c.ked more women than we have ever met!"

Douglas landed another slap before continuing.

"And you think some s.e.xy strippers can play as main attraction?!"

The manager didn"t dare reply.

"The main attraction is the women we are inviting, especially those accompanied by their influential husbands and boyfriends!" Douglas continued. "That"s the real way of exciting him!"

The manager nodded. He regretted being overconfident.

"I will bring the strippers right away," The manager rushed inside.

"Hehe, tonight I will strike gold!" Douglas once again rubbed his hands. 

He knew the heights people would fall today to impress Kiba.

And their falling would help him rise in Kiba"s eyes! 

"I could become a global player through him!"

Kiba would realize he could be a good sidekick! Someone who could get the job done!

… ... ...

"Are you sure this is the place that evil man would arrive?"

A kilometer away, Martha asked while standing underneath a lush tree. She could observe everything happening in the estate ahead, and the decorations made her eyes narrow in anger.

"Yes," Savi nodded while bringing up a screen made of ice. "The estate is being decorated to honor him tonight."

"Honor him?" Martha"s eyes flashed up with an icy glint. "Well, it"s his funeral tonight, so they can honor his corpse as well. It would save them expenses."

Savi turned silent. 

She didn"t want to be here, so far away from Eden, but she couldn"t refuse Martha"s commands to guide her.

"You think I brought you here as a guide?" Martha could read her like an open book. 

"You didn"t?" Savi was surprised.

"Unlike you, I have been to the outer world before, so I know more than you who needs to rely on gadgets."

Martha snorted and explained.

"I brought you here to enlighten you about this cruel world, to make you understand just how evil men can be!"
