EIGHT TARGETS
84. Loki's Invitation

Three days earlier.

“Kaiser-kun, Andika-kun, Agni-san, I have something to talk to you about.”

“What is Shinomiya-san?”  Agni replied to Airi.

“Starting tomorrow, I won't be able to be beside Kaiser-kun for a few days, but I have instilled a stream of my chakras on his chakras so that I will soon find out if Kaiser-kun is in danger.”

“Hey, Fox Woman, where do you want to go?”  Said Andika disrespectfully to Airi who immediately wrinkled after seeing Kaiser's sharp gaze on her.

Andika laughed awkwardly and Kaiser responded by taking a deep breath.

“I sensed some abnormal chakra flow since yesterday around Kaiser-kun, and it wasn't just one or two.  Even I sensed there was one flow of C level cultivator chakra and two D level cultivators around the Kaiser-kun house yesterday.”

Airi narrowed her eyes looking thoughtful.

“There are also several chakra streams of E and F level cultivators wandering since yesterday around the Dewantara Group hospital.  My feelings are not good.  I will watch the surroundings in a wider realm so that I can act immediately if something bad happens.”

“But wouldn't being on Kaiser's side make Kaiser safer?”  Ask Andika astonishment.

“That's because Otou-sama not only told me to protect Kaiser-kun, but also Dios-kun.”  Answer Airi lirih.

“What?”  Hearing that, Andika was shocked.

“Therefore, I ask you to accompany Kaiser-kun home by public transportation for the time being.  And remember, avoid lonely places!”  Said Airi while pointing at Andika.

“Oh, Agni-san, it's not that I don't believe in your escort, but my brother's intel says that there is currently no meaningful movement from Trans, and if it's not Trans, it's not, we can assume it will be safer if Kaiser-kun is in the crowd because the average organization of awakened people avoids appearing in the public.”  Add Airi while looking at Agni awkwardly.

“I understand Shinomiya-san.  Then, I leave Kaiser's guard to you while Dek Andika.”  Agni said, smiling at Andika.

“Take it easy, Senior.  Leave Kaiser's guard to me.”  Andika said proudly.

But we are back in the present.

“Tit tiit, tit tiit.”

There was an incoming message on HP Airi.  Apparently it was a chat from Andika.

...“Fox Woman, I was suddenly asked by my father to go home, while Kaiser went with Loki and Fero to Loki's hangar.  It seemed that Kaiser would be fine there because Loki was with him, but I felt an uneasy feeling.  Can you keep an eye on Kaiser now?”...

“Duh, that spoiled bulldozer!”  Bump Airi while calling Kaiser, but not connected.  He then contacted Andika, but apparently Andika's phone never lifted.

[There was no reaction to the Kaiser chakra.  For a while, he was fine.  But why did Kaiser turn off his phone?  It makes me feel bad.  I need to find him immediately and make sure he is.]  Teach in the heart.

Airi immediately contacted Arkias.  This time, Mr. Arkias seems to pick up his phone immediately.

“What's Airi?”

“Uncle, do you know where the hangar belongs to the Loki-kun family, friends Kaiser-kun?”

“Lokriatul from the Wijayakusuma family huh?  Yeah, I know the address of his family.  Perhaps their hangar is also located in the residence.  Address on the road ..”

“Thank you Uncle, I'll be there soon.”

“What exactly is Airi?”

“Kaiser-kun seems to go with Loki-kun to his hangar and turns off his phone.”

“Then, you don't have to worry.  Loki is a good boy.”

“What?  Then you should immediately look for Kaiser.”

“Iya, Uncle.”

“Airi, wait!”  Mr. Arkias immediately said before Airi turned off his phone.

“Ya Uncle?”

“I want to ask, right that Kaiser is not one of the awakened?”

“He's a rainbow syndrome child born with a chakra.  But I haven't felt any movement in the chakras yet which indicates that Kaiser-kun has not been awakened.”

“Then, thank goodness!  At least it's proof that what those people said about Kaiser is not true.”

“Uncle does not trust Uncle's own nephew?”

“Hahaha.  You said something interesting Nak Airi.”  Mr. Arkias tried to laugh awkwardly to divert the conversation.

Airi hung up her phone and rushed to Kaiser's place.  He had placed a marker on the Kaiser chakra with his chakra flow, but during the flow of the chakra it did not experience movement that only occurred in the event of internal or external disturbances on the Kaiser's body, the stream of the chakras would not be able to transmit signals of the Kaiser's location.

Airi looked doubtful.  Although what he said to Pak Arkias was common knowledge for cultivators, but at least he had met Lu Shou, the person she was completely unable to feel the flow of her chakra before she took out her nurse.

Unlike the newly awakened people whose chakra flow to seep out so that without being detected, it will soon be discovered the power that awakened it, he said, experienced awakened people are able to control the flow of this chakra so as not to seep out of his body.

But for experienced cultivators like Airi, it was still possible to tell if someone was awakened or not by detecting the chakra flow in his body.  If there is a flow, it means that the person has been awakened.  If there is no flow, but there is a center of the chakra, it means that the person has not been awakened, but has the potential to be awakened.  However, if the person does not have the center of the chakras at all, it means that the person is just an ordinary person.

Of course ordinary people could also practice cultivation to construct their chakra centers artificially just like those old school cultivators did.

Back to Lu Shou's case.  Lu Shou was a special case because although he had the center of the chakras, but could not detect the flow of chakras in his body so from the outside, he looked like a normal person.  Airi only found out that she was the one who was awakened, when Lu Shou was about to attack her.  By the time Lu Shou activated his power, a new stream of chakras was detected in his body.

Airi so wondered, is Kaiser also a special case like this Lu Shou?  He could have been the one who was awakened, but was trying to hide his identity.  If so, Mr. Arkias' concern is not unnatural.

But one thing Airi believed, even though she had only known him for less than a month, Airi was convinced that Kaiser was a good boy.  It is unlikely that the identity of the Black Joker serial killer is Kaiser.

“Wah, so this is apparently your hangar huh, Loki!  There are many types of swords.  Wow, this wooden sword seems to be used often!  You must be diligent in practicing yes, Loki!”  Kaiser said, smiling kindly at Loki.

Kaiser, who had just entered Loki's hangar, was amazed and looked around the contents enthusiastically.

Suddenly, a sword that seemed to be genuine from the sound of the crunch of his fall as well as his weight, was thrown before Kaiser.

“What is this, Loki?”  Kaiser wondered.

“Let's train tackle.”  Said Loki while smiling kindly.

However, unexpectedly, Loki whipped out a sharp metal sword in his hand and then dashed quickly towards Kaiser to slash at him where his smile had turned into a grim smile.

***

Elsewhere, apparently the chakra marker implanted by Airi to Kasiser appears to react which indicates there are external and internal disturbances in the body of Kaiser.

“What is this?  Marker reacted?  Kaiser's in danger?  I have to get there.”  Airi said as she rushed to the place marked by her chakra marker.

However, unexpectedly, when he was about to enter the Vijayakusuma residence, Airi was reflected by a strange barrier and was unable to enter the residence.
