[Screa Port City]
It was in the middle of the afternoon when Kaido decided to go to the merchant's store and by the time he knew it while following the map, he arrived infront of the store
As he steps in he saw some merchants glancing his way
Not minding them he immediately went to the counter where a male person was standing with a back facing him
When that person turned around he was immediately surprised by the visit
"Master!!! You're here!!!" Said Pablo
"So um..... Pablo right?" Asks Kaido
"Ah yes master I'm Pablo the one from Guila town" Pablo replied
"I see"
As he said that, Kaido instinctually checked Pablo's outfit and asked
"Aren't you a slave trader? Why are you a merchant now?" Asks Kaido
With that kind of question Pablo just laughed while replying
"A lot of things happen! But the thing is the group decided to have someone gather the money from the surface while the others are busy freeing the slaves by buying them all off from the traders"
Hearing that Kaido was surprised to hear that the slave traders are actually doing what they're ordered to
"You lot really did that?" Asks Kaido
"Yes! After all the fear of going against you was instilled in their memories that night!" Said Pablo
"By the way master! Our group in the underground have increased in numbers... After all there are some slave traders that are against this kind of treatment to the slaves" added Pablo
"I see... So there are really still decent ones in this world... But you shouldn't be so carefree and make sure to triple check or more the profile of those who joined us after all maybe one of them could be a spy!" Said Kaido
As he said that Pablo agreed to his words
"Your not wrong in that kind of aspect! Humans are a cunning creatures"
As they talked Kaido suddenly asked
"So how many?"

"How many have we saved and sent to the village?.... Hmmm maybe around fifty already" said Pablo
"Fifty? That's kinda fast!" Reacted Kaido
"Well we are expanding our merchant business to different places so we have a big amount of income" said Pablo
"I see..." Said Kaido
"In the village the number of combatants we have are about 30 assasins... That what it says in the reports" said Pablo
"Assasin yeah we need those kind of thing if I have a big gig to need that" agreed Kaido
As they talked both of them saw other merchants looking at them
"Ah! I forgot to introduce him! This guy is our master! He's responsible for this operation!"
As Pablo said that the merchants greeted Kaido to gain his trust
"Actually beside helping in making a market out of the chess board from the viscount family I also want you guys to get information about the Earl's family!" Said Kaido
Hearing that the merchants bowed to him and followed his order, then Kaido turned to Pablo
"Deploy some of the squads! Tell them to dig deep into the Earl family! They must have a secret... Anyone who oppose the operations shall be killed!" Said Kaido
"Understood I'll relay your message to them" said Pablo as he bowed his head
Finishing the talk he left the store and started to head back
******
As kaido was walking back to the store he suddenly passed an alleyway and suddenly a small girl bumped into him
"!!!"
"Uff!"
As the girl falls down, Kaido looked at it and asked
"Oi! Girl! Are you ok?" Said Kaido as he stares down
When the girl heard the voice she instinctually looked up and saw kaido
As she saw him her eyes widened up I surprise and tears started to accumulate from her eyes
Seeing this Kaido was perplexed on what to do
When Kaido started to walk away to avoid trouble the girl opened her mouth and tried to say something that she wants to say when she met him
"Papa!"
"!!!"
When Kaido looked around in surprised he only saw the girl and him were the only person in the area
"What... What did you say?" Asks Kaido
When Kaido turned around and asked her the girl immediately made a dash towards him and hugged her tightly while crying tears
"Papa! I've finally found you!"
Being hugged by a little girl Kaido was surprised, he was so glad that he was not in his old world cause if it does a bunch of rumors might spread
When he looked at her he saw the girl wearing a ragged clothes and was all dirty, not only that he also noticed that the girl was not human but a part of the fish folk
Of course merman can only describe to men so the only explanation is either she's a mermaid, a siren, or a nymph
Not only that her ears are gills while she also has blue hair and scales
But that thing that surprised him is that there were species of girl fish folk that can actually walk on land
As he saw how the girl cried to him, he father might really resemble him thus misunderstanding him to be his father
To Solve this issue Kaido plans to consult Reinbach the only person he knows that can handle this kind of situation
"Fine do what you want!" Saud Kaido as he started to walked back to the manor
Seeing this the girl hugs Kaido's waist afraid that maybe her father might disappear again
[Louche Manor]
In a backyard of the Louche family the members of the family and Melfina and Rebecca were there
Both of them were spending time with Lilith be doing sword play while the couple Reinbach and Eli were watching their daughter to know how to wield a sword
As Rebecca was swinging her sword she immediately caught a sight of Kaido entering the backyard
"Oi! Kaido over here! Wanna have a sparring match with me?"
As she asks that she noticed a kid was clinging to Kaido's waist
All of them stopped what their doing and glanced at Kaido after seeing this
"Um... Kaido-dono who's that?" Asks Reinbach
As he asks this the girl said
"I'm sui! I'm Papa's daughter"
