The director got up from his chair and towards the door, with Kai following behind him. They both left the Director's office with the door gently shutting behind them.
'This mysterious Director is actually a laid-back guy when you actually meet him. From how the rest of the staff act he appears to be a strict and cold man.' Kai thought to himself comically.
However unbeknownst to Kai, usually all the people that entered the Director's office ended up intimidated by his aura immediately and thus the Director didn't care about them and thus acted coldly.
But Kai was different, he had managed to earn Malcolm's respect simply by having Bob accompany him. After all, it wasn't easy to manage to get a magical creature on the same level as Malcolm to accompany Kai without a unique talent or a powerful background.
That was the main reason why Malcolm was laid-back and unreserved. He treated Kai as an equal. But nevertheless Kai and Bob left the office and the first thing that they saw was a pale Annabelle leaning on her desk.
When she saw them leave the room she did her utmost to stand up but couldn't. Kai raised his eye and at the same time thought to himself. 'Crap, I screwed up. I should have acted more queasy when their auras clashed.'
At the same time, Malcolm thought 'It appears that Mr Natasa has developed a resistance to higher beings' aura after being exposed to the cat's aura on a daily basis. It appears that I should get someone to see what else changed to him compared to a normal human. Perhaps I could use my own aura to strengthen my own men and thus make them more efficient.'
While both of them were dwelling on their thoughts Annabelle was waiting for them patiently and at the same time tried to recover faster from the aura.
Bob looked at them and got fed up from waiting and in the end, he decided to wail loudly in an effort to wake them up from their thoughts.
He succeeded and Both men were roused from their thoughts. There was suddenly an awkward silence as they realised that they had neglected one another. Cough cough… "Well how about we forget this little episode and continue on." Malcolm proposed after a few moments of silence.
"Let's do that" Kai quickly agreed and nodded his head. "So first I'll give you a tour of this building. Malcolm lead Kai and Bob through the third floor's corridor and stooped and lead him down the stairs.
Due to the third floor only having his and Annabelle's office there wasn't much to show. They continued down to the second floor and Malcolm showed Kai the first door on the right coming from the direction of the staircase.
Malcolm opened the door and entered it, while Kai followed. The room's lights were off, however, due to Kai's vampiric senses, he could see hundreds of cardboard boxes piled on one another. There were many labels on each box.
Kai tried to find anything else but at that moment the lights switched on and the room was bathed with light. He pretended to adjust to the light by blinking a little.
"As you see here this is the storage room, it stores all of the older data that we no longer have any room for," Malcolm said. "You can return later if you want to see anything that you need. Just ask the staff in this building."
Kai scanned the large room for abnormalities but couldn't find anything that would indicate something suspicious. He then left the room with Malcolm trailing behind him after switching off the lights.
Malcolm overtook him and continued on with the tour. At that moment Kai heard something interesting coming from downstairs. It was a female voice, specifically Penelope's.
It seemed like she was talking to someone, he focused on his hearing and heard the heartbeats of two other people in the room. It seemed to be the kitchen from the specific sound of the vibrations that allowed him to identify the refrigerator.
"…Did you get that guys? This is how we're going to get back at him." Penelope said to the two people. "Wait why do you even want to do this to him? I mean this is just vicious." A male voice said to her in an effort to dissuade her idea.
"He started to ask about his paintings, he even wanted to buy them. These are the only remnants I have of him and nobody is going to try to take them away from me.
After all, I'm not going to kill him so relax, I'm only going to cause it so that he doesn't return here and perhaps spend a few weeks in hospital." She said spitefully. "Sam you would do it for me right?" "Of course, Penny, I would do anything for you." A deeper male voice said with a slight tinge of infatuation laced within.
"I'm not doing this, he's just a mortal." Said the first male voice. "Then don't tell anybody about this their coming soon let's get read, Sam," Penelope said.
"Fine but I wasn't part of this crazy scheme." "Then go away Jason. Don't interfere! Alright, Sam let's get ready for him, this is the new plan…"
Kai looked at the Director that was walking next to him and could see that he too was listening to their conversation. At that moment he stopped and turned to Kai. There was a door where they stood. "As you can see according to the sign on the door this is where the secretaries work.
Right now, they are working so I won't disturb them." Malcolm said before continuing down the corridor. "Here is where one of my friendliest secretaries work, due to the outstanding work that she has done she has earned her own office. You've met her, she's a wonderful young woman called Penelope."
Kai looked at Malcolm with a friendly stare and smiled at her before saying "yes she took me to Annabelle's office. Very nice girl." While he said this with much effort, he thought 'What a nice girl. She wants to send me to hospital for weeks and if her plan isn't tweaked all the way then if I was a normal human then I might die. She's a demon, not a kind girl.'
Malcolm popped his head into her office and saw that nobody was in so he told Kai that she was probably on lunch break. They then headed down the second-floor hallway and walked towards the staircase. A young handsome man was walking up it and the Director stopped him. "Jason this is our investor, Mr Natasa. He is a very successful person and built his own business with his own hands."
"Mr Natasa this is my son Jason Argentum, he's currently a student here at the academy." Kai looked at him and understood that he was the voice that didn't want to join Penelope's scheme.
"Nice to meet you, Jason." Kai stretched his hand out as a form of greeting. Jason grasped his hand and said, "Nice to meet you too Mr Natasa."
Jason strengthened his grip and attempted to assert his dominance over Kai. Kai who was a Vampire Progenitor was having none of it. He also gradually increased his strength little by little. In the beginning, it was at the level of a professional martial artist, but he slowly increased it until he had reached a normal vampire strength.
However, it didn't seem to do anything, and Jason kept on increasing his strength. Kai was getting annoyed because Jason wasn't stopping. So, in the end, he unleashed a fragment of his aura that had been nurtured by the thousands of fights in the arena solely onto Jason's person in a manner that could only be sensed by him.
Jason saw the extremely handsome young man that was standing in front of him transform into a giant bloody shadowy figure releasing a demonic might. He quickly let go of Kai's hand and fell onto the ground before looking at Kai in a terrified way before dashing away.
Malcolm who saw what happened attributed it to Bob because he had only seen Bob's aura while Kai had acted as a human. In reality, Kai had used Bob as a shield to get all of the attention onto him so that if such occurrences like what had happened with Jason right now appeared then he could say that it was all Bob's fault.
Malcolm who was a fearsome being by himself didn't sense Kai's aura at all and thought that it was all due to Bob. Of course, due to him being used to being the most powerful creature in his territory for so long he didn't think that anyone could escape his senses like Kai had.
Perhaps if he hadn't been so arrogant he wouldn't have overlooked Kai so easily.
He looked at Kai said to him "You know how kids, he didn't have any bad intentions so don't take it seriously." However, Kai could see that he was actually talking to Bob. In the end, Bob nodded and they continued down the stairs.
