Looking at Tarou's expression, Kai replied with a smile. "This is our first meeting in this situation. I shall introduce myself one more time. My name is Kai Carter. I greet Grandfather-in-law."

Kudo Tarou closed his eyes for a moment, savoring the feeling when someone finally called him grandfather-in-law. He bowed his head to Kai. "My granddaughter may be a bit too much, but I hope you two can get along forever."

"Yes." Kai nodded with a serious expression. "I promise to make her happy."

"That's good. I don't have any more regrets now."

"To be honest, if my grandfather learned this, he would surely flip," Michelle added with a smirk.

Nathan might indeed flip his switch when he saw Kai calling Ayaka's grandfather with Grandfather-in-law instead of Sir.

He had settled everything with Sofia too, so he might indeed need to talk about it with Nathan and Michael.

"Ahaha, I promise you that I will come to them after returning to the US Base. I hope they can spare some time."

"That will be good news for them." Michelle nodded. "I will tell them about it."

"Yeah. Since everyone is there, I will also bring my parents together."

"I will leave everything in your hand." Michelle was satisfied with his arrangement as they were indeed one step closer to marriage.

"Haha, you have the guts." Tarou laughed and patted Kai's shoulders.

"I may not be a perfect husband who can take care of everyone at the same time, but I will do my best to fulfill everyone's needs and make sure that no one is scrutinized or whatsoever."

"I have heard a few things from Ayaka. From what you experienced during the chase, your achievements in the military, your strength… It must be very hard on you, boy."

"It's nothing." Kai shook his head. "It's the burden I need to carry. Besides, everyone helped me on my path. Without Ayaka, I won't be able to progress in the early stages. If I didn't have Michelle, I would have died several times.

"If I don't have Tasha, I may have gone astray when I was a kid. Sofia also has helped me with everything, especially regarding the EU Base. Last but not least, there is another girl who has helped me in United Asia. Our memory is short, but we can make memories after this.

"I would be lying if I told you it's not hard, but because everyone is with me, I have the strength to go through everything. It's a sense of responsibility as well as my determination."

Kudo Tarou made a smile as he felt happy hearing those words from him. As he said, he might not be a good husband by marrying five people, but he would indeed do a good job in protecting the family.

"I guess I don't need to tell you anything regarding your relationship. I believe you have matured to that point, so I just want to ask you, if you decide to do it, you shall see it through to the end." Tarou smiled and started chatting with the rest.

They talked about so many things from their first encounter, which embarrassed Ayaka. She freshly remembered how cringy she was and it was planted on everyone's head.

It was even more embarrassing when Felice came into the picture.

Felice simply laughed this whole time, understanding Kai a bit more from these people.

After that, they began to share a few things about Michelle. It was the first time they heard the full story of how Michelle and Kai could be together.

It was such a ridiculous story, but fate indeed worked mysteriously.

Even Tasha shared her experience with the other girls. Listening to such an important story, Tarou decided to leave the room, giving the kids some space.

He acted this way to see how far the kids' relationship had progressed. They indeed had understood each other, but they hadn't shared their past. It might hurt sometimes, but when you shared that past with your other half, they could see how far you had gone in your own path, showing them they could do better in the future.

It was a promise that no one needed to say but still gave them security in their heart.

Kai also noticed that Tarou was outside the room, enjoying his time alone while wishing the kids the best. He was grateful to see such a grandfather-in-law who was supportive and understanding to him and the girls.

In the end, Kai also told them his relationship with Felice since no one had heard about it yet, except Sofia. Even Sofia didn't know everything as she was too busy with the kids back then.

After a long talk, they had some sleep to prepare for their mission tomorrow night.

Kai also asked whether Tarou wanted to join them to resolve some grudges against the Katsuragi Family, which he promptly declined after knowing Kai had enough strength to handle everything.

He seemed to be similar to Ikeda Kenzo and had been talking to him this whole time. They even became a chess buddy since only Ikeda Kenzo knew him residing in this basement.

After a few considerations, Kai decided to focus on doing everything with only the other five girls. He might fetch Haruko, but he wanted to solve everything first before visiting the Oni Village.

Kai simply wanted her family to return to their own home, so they could talk about marriage and other stuff.

Ikeda Kenzo also came to him the next day. As promised, he sent all the information he had to Kai before consulting a few stuff.

They decided the location of the pick up as well as the timing as Kenzo tried to rescue every single member of his family.

But Kai also found something weird in Kenzo's report.

He told him that Katsuragi Akagi, the current leader of the Katsuragi Family, seemed to have another trump card other than him.

This was also the reason why Katsuragi Akagi didn't fear Kenzo even after realizing Kenzo had enough strength to oppose him the moment he switched sides.

This piqued Kai's interest because he could only think of one thing. Just like the EU Base that had been corrupted by those sea invaders, Kai believed this trump card was related to them.

The information allowed him to know what he wanted to do in this mission. It might annoy his friend a little bit, but it shouldn't be that harsh because of the importance of their talks.

When the night came, Kai finally gathered all the girls and said, "Tonight, we have a total of three hundred people to kill, separated in two locations. Felice… You don't need to kill currently since I want to have you learn how to do something like this.

"After that, I don't mind letting you do something in the future mission. For now, just observe, okay?"

"I understand." Although reluctantly, Felice still complied.

"We will stay together for most of the time because it's more convenient to do it with the Teleportation Magic instead of sneaking around. And my ears can locate them easily, so yeah, support each other and fight.

"I want to show you something important later, so that's all." Kai smiled and rose from the floor. "Are you ready?"

With serious expressions planted on their faces, the girls followed him and nodded their heads.

They all turned to Kudo Tarou first and said, "We are going."

"Be careful out there."

Kai then snapped his finger, summoning the Teleportation Magic Circle to transport them to their destination.
