[Holvart Port Town]

Shock as he may be from the sudden kiss, Kaido still stayed calm and compromised as he ordered Okou to put Sui's mother at the empty bed inside a room and lay her there

Followed by that as everyone kept there business as usual, for some reason Ingrid was glaring at Kaido as she looked at his lips which has been stolen by some unknown woman they never met before

"So Kaido how was it? Did you like it? Did you somehow still think about that kiss?" Asks Ingrid with a tone so murderous as if a wife have caught her husband cheating

In return Kaido replied with a cold stare as he said

"Like it? Enjoy it? Stop joking around!... . . A person who somehow a relative to someone I know is neither an asset nor a liability can only be a restraint on me"

Hearing that Ingrid suddenly backed away as she was shocked by Kaido's sudden grim tone

"Asset and liability... . . That's how you see everyone right?" Asked Ingrid as she felt disheartened

"As long as my goal can be achieved through means... . . Yes" replied Kaido

"I see... . ."

Soon as Kaido passes her he suddenly mentioned something that even more made Ingrid felt that she somehow wronged Kaido

"In fact... . . That wasn't my first kiss"

"!!!"

"My first kiss was stolen by a girl whom I thought would never abandon me, but nevertheless reality is always harsh, it doesn't go the way you wanted... . . My life was ruined the moment they abandoned me, I... . . I can't live the way I wanted to again"

After that he gathered everyone at the living room of the small house to discuss.about the information that Pablo has acquired

As for Ingrid herself she seemed quite stunned for moment, just then at that exact time she realized that even thought she knew Kaido, she never really knew about his past and the reason why he converted to the person he is today

As everyone gathered at the living room and Kaido taking a stool and sits on it, Sui however was sitting on one of his lap and was happily eating one of the biscuits that was handed to her by Pablo

Soon the discussion started

Firstly Pablo told them about the current situation of the continent based on what he heard from the rats, merchants, gossipers, and citizens

"Firstly we need to know is that this continent is currently at war"

"!!!"

"!!!"

"!!!"

.......

.......

Due to that everyone suddenly got alerted as they clearly knew what war can instigate

Soon Luke the SSS-rank Adventurers spoke up as he posed a question

"Why? Did they have any problem in their domain? Or is it the demons?" He asked

"It's the Demon's, apparently the war has started since a month ago during winter and this time where spring has come nothing can restrain both armies, meaning the fight will become intense throughout this following months" replied Pablo

"I see" exclaimed Luke

Soon Lily spoke up as she probed into the matter

"What else? Seemingly from your reaction, it seems you still have more news to convey" she pointed out
