BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108: 108. Move
'You don't need to worry about anything. Do you think that your father still wouldn't have noticed something changed in you?'
Shark Head fell silent after hearing Kai's reply. He didn't think like that, but he knew that with his father's influence, he could easily get information about him.
"Okay, young master. I will meet him." Shark head nodded firmly, it seems he made up his mind to face his fear.
Shark Head was afraid to meet his father ever since he was a child and he still hadn't overcome that fear. But he had to do it because of Kai's order.
Kai smiled and nodded after seeing Shark Head change. 'If he changed and became independent, I can take him as my subordinate, his talent was also useful.'
"Simon, Simon! Where are you?" Shark head shouted.
A moment later Simon came inside his room and asked
"Young master, do you want anything?"
"Yes. I want to meet my father today."
Simon looked at his young master weirdly, he never thought of hearing these words from him.
"Young master, can you repeat?"
"You heard it right. I want to meet my father." Shark head sighed and repeated.
"Okay, young master. I will immediately arrange a meeting between you two." Simon was overjoyed and went outside with enthusiasm.
He watched Shark Head grow up, so he knew about Shark Head's fear of his father. So the sudden change in attitude made in happy; he didn't doubt him because his young master was changing every day.
Shark Head waited anxiously for Simon to arrive. Although he decided to meet his father, his fear didn't leave him.
"Young master, your father is free right now, you can go ahead and meet him." Simon brought good news with his smile.
Sharkhead looked at him for a moment and stood up. He knew there was no more backing down, he got dressed up properly and went to meet him.
Pretty soon, he arrived at a simple room. This room may look ordinary, but it is the most important room since the patriarch lived here.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
Simon went to the door and knocked on it for a formality; then he waited patiently.
"Come in" A calm, but hoarse voice invited Shark Head after a few minutes.
Shark Head opened the door hesitantly and went inside. There a middle-aged man was calmly reading a book, but his presence made the room heavy. He was the ruthless leader of the Dono family, Ethan Dono.
Shark head's body went stiff in nervousness and he walked weirdly.
"Greetings, patriarch." He went ahead and bowed respectfully.
"Mmm, get up," Ethan replied without even looking at him. He didn't bother went he called him patriarch instead of father.
Shark Head got up and didn't say anything. He waited for him to finish reading the book.
"What's the reason for your sudden visit?" He closed his book and asked after five minutes.
"Patriarch, I want to ask you about the weird behavior of Naline Kingdom." Shark Head took a deep breath and got straight to the point.
Ethan looked at him in surprise and asked softly "How do you know about this?"
"Patriarch, with your influence in the family, you can easily guess that I changed in the past month." Sharkhead looked at Ethan and waited.
"Continue"
"I wanted to become someone worthy to inherit your position, so I began to form my forces and using them I got this information."
"Although, I know you did change due to something, I never thought you would take something seriously." Ethan nodded and stood up.
"So why do you need this information?"
Shark Head didn't reply and kept silent. He can't disclose the existence of Kai, so he thought for a moment and replied
"Patriarch, I have a plan to disrupt the current status quo."
"Oh! What is it?"Ethan looked in surprise and asked.
"I currently have a method to control any Tier 3 cultivators from their side." The shark head only shared limited information about the plan.
Kai only informed him to tell him this much, so he followed without any questions.
Ethan didn't look fiercely and put pressure on Shark Head. He didn't like his son's current attitude of keeping secrets.
Shark head didn't reply and kept silent while clenching his fist. As a Tier 2 cultivator, he wasn't able to endure the pressure of a Tier 4 cultivator even though, it was only a small amount.
"Okay, I will give the information to Simon after arranging them." Ethan took back the pressure "You can leave now."
Shark head looked at Ethan with surprise on his face, he wasn't able to believe that his father let him leave even after not giving crucial information.
Based on his loyalty towards the kingdom, he would desire the method of controlling others, even if it was only useful up to Tier 3.
"Thank you for giving me your precious time." Shark head bowed and left the room.
"Shadow" After Shark Head left the room, Ethan muttered in the empty room.
"Master, please tell me your orders." Soon a man in the form of shadow appeared out of thin air. He excludes a deadly killing intent, and if someone nears him, they could even smell blood.
"Follow Shane from now on. There is something wrong with him, also if he ever contacted someone suspicious, capture him immediately."
"Okay, master." The shadow muttered and disappeared without any traces.
"Shane, my son! Do you think that with your petty schemes, you can manipulate me?" Ethan sneered and continued reading his book.
Meanwhile Shark Head already began to day dream. 'Now, I can finally get my revenge on him. He He He!'
'Stop creeping me!' Kai's voice suddenly heard inside his mind.
Shark Head stopped walking and said "Young master."
'Don't use your voice to communicate, instead use your thoughts.'
Shark head looked puzzled, but did as Kai told.
'Young master, can you hear me? Why am I not able to do this beforehand?'
'Since you decided to become my subordinate wholeheartedly, you can contact me like this; the advantage for me is that I can hear your thoughts.' Kai calmly explained.
With the increase in trust from Shark Head towards Kai, his subconscious brain assumed Kai's Will Power was friendly, which gave Kai's Will Power access to more control over neurons.
Using this Kai was able to read his thoughts and also communicate with him by reading neuro signals.
(A/N - Signals sent by the brain; most of them are thoughts and commands.)
'From now on, be careful and don't act weirdly anywhere.' Kai ordered.
Shark head resumed his journey to his room and asked. "What is the reason, young master?"
'Do you think that your father is a simple man?' Kai didn't answer, instead, he questioned.
Shark head fell silent after hearing that. He can conclude everything after that on his own.
The method capable of controlling a person up to Tier 3 was very precious and it was needed much in this current situation.
'Young master, do you think that my father will send someone to watch me?'
'I think he may already send someone, so be careful from now on and don't give him information any more than necessary.'
After that, Shark Head arrived in his room and patiently waited for Simon's arrival.
"Young master, I brought information given by patriarch." Simon arrived and handed him a book.
"Okay, you can leave now."
Simon bowed and excused himself. After that, Shark Head began to read. Although Simon was his loyal brother, he had to keep something secret, which Simon understood.
'Young master, do you get the information?' Shark Head asked after he finished reading the book.
'Yeah, don't act on your own from now on.' Kai ordered, he used his connection between them and read everything along Shark's head.
KAI'S POV
'Now, I need to be careful before visiting the Naline kingdom.' Kai sighed, lamenting his bad luck.
Ethan summarised everything that happened recently in the Naline Kingdom.
All the nobles and high status people didn't appear on public eyes for more than a year. Their military were also didn't show any movement.
All the spies sent by Ethan and others from Natine kingdom didn't bring back any information.
The weird thing was that the nobles who didn't like to act in unison disappeared together.
This made Ethan and the king assume that they were preparing for a full-scale war, but even that didn't happen.
The situation right now was tense and Natine kingdom also didn't have much information to come to a solid conclusion.
The only crucial information was that everything began exactly six months ago.
'I should personally take this matter into my own hands.' Kai sighed and stood up.
Even though he didn't want to personally act, his luck didn't allow him.
