Hitman x Wives

Chapter 157 Chapter 157- Kai Vs Eva & Kaya (Part 2)

Kai's body moved with incredible speed as he dodged Eva's last punch before he swiftly deflected another attack. At the same time, he jumped in the air, before he rested both of his arms on Eva's shoulder.

Then, using her as a support, he flipped in the air and landed on the other side. Everything happened too quickly for the two girls to react on time.

*BOOOOM*

Their attacks instead connected with each other, sending the two girls flying back. Eva used her arms to adjust her posture mid-air before she landed and instantly dashed toward Kai with even more speed.

She looked like a predator in hot pursuit of its prey. Her eyes looked extremely frightening as they seemingly shone with a weird glint. Eva's mind was fully focused on the fight, ignoring everything else, even the fact that Kai was her target.

*BANG*

When she was close enough, she concentrated the Origin on the hill of her foot before she stomped down, destroying the whole ground. Huge cracks started appearing around him.

Kai looked around before he jumped back. However, instantly, he felt a presence appear behind him.

'Coordinate attack?' He thought as he looked back. Kaya had used that moment to strike. Her eyes were totally focused on Kai as she sent a palm attack, aimed at his back.

'Tsk.' Kai could only turn around and cross his arms, tanking the attack. Eva had successfully tricked him into getting within Kaya's range. Such a level of teamwork was something that surprised him.

From what he had seen, the two hated each other. They were like oil and water, never mixing together. Yet, they had somehow become capable of understanding each other's intentions without a word or even eye contact.

Kai didn't understand where such a connection between them was created. What he didn't know was that the past month of suffering and harsh training had made the two girls bond without the need to talk or become friends.

They were like brothers in arms, fighting a tough war together. They understood the hell each one of them was going through. So, the result was what Kai was facing now. Two scary monsters that can work together despite their differences.

*BAAAAAAAAANG*

The hit connected, sending Kai flying. As Kai was adjusting his position, Eva appeared beside him, running at full speed. The girl closed the distance between them before she kicked down, aiming for Kai's stomach.

*Swish*

At that second, Kai's eyes contracted as his aura flared. It seems that he needed to finally use Origin. Instantly, his silhouette vanished.

'Where did he go?' Eva looked around quickly.

Before she could react, she felt something hit her in the back before she was sent flying away. Kai then dashed toward Kaya.

The latter faced him with a serious expression. Seeing Kai aiming for her was a horrifying sight even though she knew this was a simple spar.

'Come at me!' However, surprisingly, Kaya felt no fear. Instead, a wide smile appeared on her face. A smile of pure excitement. Adrenaline was pumping endlessly into her body.

*Swish*

Kai's silhouette vanished again like a phantom before appearing mid-air, with his fist tightened. For a second, Kaya saw a black silhouette with no features replace Kai. That silhouette looked so inhumane that she almost lost focus. The only noteworthy thing about this nightmarish monster was its distinct shining purple eyes.

*BOOOOM*

Adjusting her posture, Kaya punched back. The two punches connected together, sending a massive airwave that threatened to break the trees in the vicinity.

"Ugh…" Her face contorted from pain. Her feet were getting pushed back, leaving a trail in the ground in the process.

Kai didn't stop there as he punched again, sending Kaya flying as she smashed against a tree.

When Kai landed, the silhouette Kaya saw had completely vanished and everything went back to normal.

"Hah… Hah…" Kaya landed on her feet, panting heavily.

On the other side, Eva was also on one knee as she took heavy breaths.

"That was… Amazing!!" Even with her exhausted condition, her face beamed happily. She had never thought she could pull off such feats!

"What the hell was that?! It was like… I can't believe I can do all of that." Kaya murmured back as she examined her hands. Her powers had reached a new height and it was the best feeling ever!

They even were able to force Kai into using Origin. That alone was a feat worthy of celebrating in their eyes.

Kai looked at them before he nodded his head. "That's the difference between Origin Users who mastered their powers and those who didn't. They can't be compared. You two had absorbed my training and made use of it. You did… good." He thought for a second before he added.

"You dealt some damage to my skin. Your strength has improved." He pointed to his left arm. There, a red spot could be seen which was Kaya's attack.

"You're right… I'm sorry, Kai." Kaya approached him and looked at his hand.

"No need." Saying that Kai's hand instantly healed as if nothing happened.

"As for you, Eva. Your technique and your footwork improved too. You strike when needed and use the terrain to your advantage in multiple situations." Kai explained.

"Hahaha… I didn't think of it that way." Eva blushed as she looked down.

"Bad acting…" Kaya murmured while rolling her eyes.

"What did you say, old hag?"

"I said you suck at acting shy. Stop it."

"I'm not acting!"

"You sure do."

"At least I'm better than you in many things. You only have strength. Just like a gorilla. An ugly, old, wrinkly gorilla."

"What the fuck did you say?!" Kaya glared at Eva.

"Look, a banana. Want me to get it to you, old gorilla?" Eva replied with a smirk.

"You're dead!"

"Do you want to try me? I will knock your teeth out."

*BONK* *BONK*

"Ouch!" (x2)

"You two…" Kai said as he bonked the two girls.

"It was her fault!!" (x2) the two said as they pointed at each other.

"Sigh…"

"Meow!!"

As the three were like that, a giant cat came running toward them as she jumped on Kai. The latter stopped her with his hand before he ordered her to sit down. He had enough of Miyu crushing him and coating his face with her saliva.

"What are we going to do now?" Kaya changed the topic and asked Kai.

"We're going to go back. There are still a few days before the Red Rose Day. Until that happens, I'd rather you two stay low-key. Don't grab any attention toward you."

Eva and Kaya's face frowned when they heard his words. The Red Rose was indeed a few days from now. A few more nights and the big showdown will happen. After that night, the whole world will change completely.

Either they succeed and destroy the behemoth known as the Hitman Guild or die trying. Not that dying was an option for Kai. This was his last mission and he was going to finish successfully.

Just like every other mission he did.
