He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact-Chapter 76. Hooded Devil 1

Everyone looked at Phila, waiting for her response. Kailen was not joking around. Everyone knew his personality very well. He never hesitated to be ruthless to his enemies. No one actually knew why Kailen wanted to kill Phil. However they naturally assumed it was because Phil had hurt Micheal n Phila.

Kailen mused inwardly ’’If I can kill him and turn him into a shadow creature, I can get him to tell me some things related to this Terror Surge Syndicate the Time Dilation Artifact says I have a connection to. It’s better than trying to interrogate him when he’s alive. If the things we see in movies about villainous cults are true, I will not be shocked if there’s a self-destructive mechanism that will kill a member of the Syndicate who tries to reveal any information about the Syndicate. I will just kill him, then turn him to a shadow creature when I have more slots for creating shadow creatures after getting to the A rank, then he will naturally tell me everything. Of course, the bastard also made life difficult for my friend and his wife, all the more reason to not live him alive’’

’’If you are worried that I share some emotional ties with my brother and therefore, killing him will have a negative emotional effect on me, there is absolutely nothing to be worried about here. From my point of view, Phil and I were only born from the same parents, but we are not a family. Not after everything I have been through because of him.

Also, I am not scared of a little bloodshed Mr Darkhaven. Being raised in the Ngonzola family comes with a lot of serious training, including getting used to blood shed. Besides, I managed some family businesses in the past as a form of training, and that included getting rid of some family traitors through, you know... I did not directly have to dirty my hands though’’

Everyone nodded at Phila’s words, it made perfect sense.

Especially Micheal, his wife had really excelled in the businesses she managed when she was a member of the Ngonzola Family. She had personally told him about it.

Phila added ’’Also, after killing four S ranked awakeners from the Ngonzola family, he will definitely come after you, whether directly or indirectly’’

’’That’s right, it seems we forgot to consider that possibility’’ Arrie added, causing the others to nod.

Angela was about to say something when she suddenly grew static, staring into the distance for a few seconds.

’’Must be having another vision’’ Kailen mused inwardly.

However, everyone else was concerned ’’Kailen is she okay? You’ve known her longer than us all, so you know best when it comes to her’’

Arrie’s question was what Micheal had also wanted to ask.

Kailen nodded ’’She’s fine, don’t worry about her’’

Just when Kailen spoke, Angela returned to normal again.

’’Kailen, they are coming for you and specifically this family of three, however for some reason, Arrie Hall seems to be one of the main reasons behind the attack too’’

’’By them, you mean Phil? or someone else?’’

Micheal probed, his voice tinged with anxiety and anger.

’’Technically yes. I mean, Phil is part of them, and his main reason is you and your family, and this calamity magnet, Kailen. However, an external factor seemed to have influenced him to target Arrie Hall specifically too. They plan on targeting us at the outskirts of the city.

Due to the scale of those targeting you guys, I estimate that only Kailen and I can deal with them. We need a plan to get you the rest of you somewhere safe as soon as possible, then Kailena and I will take them on’’

Everyone stared at Angela, bewildered. Her words were understandable though. After the interaction that had just transpired, everyone was aware that Phil was coming after Kailen and Micheal’s family.

Since Arrie was also a part of Kailen’s group, naturally she’d be targeted. However, Angela had emphatically made it clear just now that Arrie had been specifically targeted now too, not because she was Kailen’s friend, but because an external factor had influenced Phila to do so.

This Angela Hayes was quite mysterious.

As expected of someone Kailen deemed to be strong. Her information network is quite serious.

This was what everyone else apart from Kailen and Angela thought, completely oblivious that she had seen a vision.

Kailen stared at the group, then at Arrie specifically who seemed to be in deep thought.

A second later, Arrie mused to the group.

’’Could it be because of mum? After all, she has her fair share of enemies’’ Everyone nodded. It made sense. Helena Hall was pretty much influential in not just Zanpala nation, but in the federation. Someone at her level had made her fair share of enemies as she climbed to her level after all. So, it was normal for her daughter to be targeted.

’’Guys time is not on our side. I suggest that the four of you stay at the awakener’s center of the city. Angela and I will make use of the private jet to leave the city and lure them out, then deal with them there’’ Kailen suggested.

Everyone nodded, this plan seemed to be the most efficient. The group was worried about Kailen and Angela; however, Angela had made it clear that only Kailen and her could hold a candle against them. They would only be dead weight if they followed.

Micheal clenched his fists. He was still too weak. He had to become stronger quickly. If not Kailen, he could not imagine what would have happened to his family.

Even if Phil had not discovered his whereabouts, those guys from his former sect were probably still hunting him and would find him soon. His family was not safe. He could not also be deadweight to the group. He had to become stronger. After they returned to the university, he will train like a madman. He could not let his S rank talent potential go to waste. Even though his breakthrough speed was not fast, with hard work and the available resources, he could become strong enough to protect himself, his family, and not be deadweight to the group.

Phila caressed his hand, completely reading her husband like an open book.

’’ I guess mum will have to get a new private jet then’’ Arrie sighed.

Her gaze softened, as she stared at Kailen, only to a second later jump into his arms

’’Take care of yourself, please, return alive. I wish, I wish I was strong enough to fight alongside you’’

Kailen hugged Arrie back, bathing in her warmth. Her words soothed him, causing an indescribable emotion to well up in his heart ’’You are the best thing that ever happened to me, don’t beat yourself up. I just want you to be safe. Also, if you want to stand alongside me, eat a lot of noodles and grow stronger’’

Arrie’s face flushed at Kailen’s words, his words causing her heart to be beat erratically. Never had a man said such sincere, and heartwarming words to her before. However, the last statement made her almost kick him in the nuts.

’’Hey lovebirds, snap out of it’’ Angela sighed.

’’We are not a couple’’ The duo left each other’s embrace, their faces flushing.

Everyone laughed, then said unanimously ’’Whatever you say’’

******

’’Agent Zero, do not make such stupid demands. It was thanks to the syndicate that your parents came to be under your control. Had it not been for that, you would not have been able to get rid of your sister. Do not also forget that your parents are now bedridden due our help. Know that you only control the Ngonzola family now because we put you there’’

Phil sighed ’’Lord Xandros, I perfectly understand, and I am really grateful for the syndicate’s help. However, I am doing this because this Kailen Darkhaven killed a member of the syndicate. As a patriotic member of the organization, I cannot just sit back and let him get away with it.

I would be really grateful if the reinforcements are provided as soon as possible, sir.

Also, would it not be killing two birds with one stone? Do you not think Kailen Darkhaven is a threat to us, considering his monstrous growth? Sooner or later, he may get in the way of things’’

The individual at the other end of the call remained silent for a while, probably pondering over what Phil had said, then responded ’’Fine! I know this all an excuse to end your sister once and for all, but you have a point. This Kailen Darkhaven needs to be eliminated before he becomes a threat. Although he does not know anything about the syndicate, and probably never will, it does not hurt to get rid of him. Else, he will be the most troublesome person on the day we openly bare our fangs at the world. As for your sister, we would have ignored her since she’s completely powerless against you, but with this Kailen Darkhaven in the equation, she has to be completely taken care of now that her whereabouts have been discovered. Oh, and that Arrie Hall, I hear she’s the adoptive daughter of my nemesis, make sure to end her. I’d like to see the look on Helena Hall’s face when she realizes her daughter is dead. The reinforcements you have requested will be there soon’’

With that, the call ended.

Phil sighed ’’Always ends the call when he’s done speaking’’

He revealed a malicious expression, as he hummed a tune in the private jet, heading towards New Alexandria city.
